Title: Dancing Days Rating: G Length: 144 words Competitor: Baird Round: 1/D Summary: Ilane finally admits long-buried feelings.
-----
His name was but a memory of gentle lips and emerald eyes and Ilane had not thought of him on any sort of deep level in years. After all, those days were over and they had been over long ago, and she could hold Baird in her heart as a fond old friend.
It was not until Vorinna brought a rumor to Mindelan that Ilane wondered if her emotions were truly good and buried.
“It seems our Kel has been caught up in some scandal with Queenscove,” she had sighed, shaking her head forlornly.
“You mean young Nealan?” Ilane said, surprised. “He’s married to Yuki.”
“No, worse—his father.”
“Baird?”
And then she had pictured those gentle lips murmured sweet words into Kel’s ears, and emerald eyes gazing into Kel’s eyes, and Ilane had known that she had not, indeed, forgotten Baird at all.

This is why Ilane ought to have an affair with Neal. Everything would be so well-balanced

I agree with Jess! Also, this is neatly done. Few words, much impact

OUCH. I'm on board with Ilane/Neal, though.
