She straightened up as Master Gillian approached her. She offered him a lopsided smile, feeling eternally awkward when in proximity of a member of the male species. This ball wasn't her type of scene at all. Nonetheless, she had enough courage and daring to try.
This was all posh and nice and classy and she felt anything but posh and nice and classy. She used to sleep on the streets for goodness sake. For a second, she wanted to reach out forward to see if her finger would reach the canvas of the impeccable life-like painting in front of her. She felt like a splatter of paint in a still-life.
"I guess it's just not my scene.", she said, ignoring the praise. It wasn't that she didn't like being complimented. She was just eternally awkward at receiving compliments, especially when they felt sincere. "You not looking to bad yourself, sir. Cape and all.", she said jokingly and nodded at his costume.

There was only a brief moment of hesitation before Adia was nodding her head in agreement. His company wouldn't be so bad, it gave her someone to talk to and a distraction from all of the happy couples working their way across the dancefloor. "I don't mind at all." She replied softly as she set her bottle off to the side on the ground so that he could get her a proper drink. "Great" Aidan nodded pursing his lips as he smiled. It was a habit that showed when he was intimidated. "would you like me to bring you something here? Anything particular? Or would you rather go back inside with me?" He asked adjusting the mask on his face. Even with a mask hiding his true identity he didn't feel too confident

Without an answer Adia rose from the bench and hooked her arm around his to lead him back inside. He was right, it was cold out and his jacket did little to keep her warm with the way she was dressed. Nonetheless she walked with her back straight and her head held high. She had learned long ago how to fake confidence and it may do her some good tonight if she kept it up.

Jasper raised Alice's small hand and bowed kissing it. "Ma'am" He started. "Could a lonely soldier count on a dance with you? Would you honor him with a bit of your time and attention?" He asked in a soft murmur still holding her hand in his larger one and leaning forward to look deep into her eyes.

Aidan wasn't confident at all but at least he didn't trip or anything. With grace typical for most representatives of his species he walked with her back into the mess hall. He threw one quick glance and the doves on the dance floor. Jasper was charming Alice again. This was the time when it was safer not to be around them

Alice's gaze strayed from the lonely soldier briefly as she glanced at the red and gold sheets that hung from the walls near the entrance. She was here, the little one that she was quite fond of. Her honey colored eyes stared straight into Elsie's piercing blue ones even from her hiding place. Tonight she wasn't going to force her out of hiding place. She would come to them once she was ready.
"As I can't seem to find my date I suppose I could honor a lonely soldier with a bit of my time." Alice nodded as a small grin spread across her pixie-like face. "Just promise that you won't step on my toes."

Adia followed his gaze back to the beautiful couple in the center of the hall and looked away again with a shake of her head as she dropped his arm. It was hard not to feel jealous when that was what everyone else would be compared to. She would never have that. "It makes you sick watching them, doesn't it? They are already perfect so they should give somebody else a chance to be the center of attention and go hide or something.."

"Actually I live with them so I'm very much used to this view. They're my friends who dragged me here and I'm not really sure if I'd like them to go hide in our apartment" Aidan said with a small frown and a barely noticeable shudder. "That would mean sleeping on a couch in my office and it's not very comfy" He joked. "You know they don't even realize they make a perfect view here" he said furrowing his eyebrows again

"Well I can promise you ma'am that your gorgeous feet will not be harmed by this soldier's boots" Jasper murmured. His lips curved in a small playful smile and he raised her hand to his soldier, wrapping his arm around her waist. "I don't want to brag but i'm a good dancer ma'am" He added taking her other hand. He led them across the dance floor spinning gracefully to the music

"That is very unfortunate for you. People like that shouldn't be allowed to go out in public if they are that perfect, it isn't fair for the rest of us normal people." Adia stated, not bothing to hide the disapproval in her voice. She was entilted to have her own opinions and shouldn't have to hide them. She dropped his arm and leaned 'casually' against the table. "Your office? Are you one of the teachers here?"

"Unfortunate is a very good word here. You say watching them in public isn't fair for others. Try living with this perfection" Aidan said sceptically looking at his friends. "Although they're really good friends. I've known them for a very long time and I know I can count on both of them. IT just annoys me when she tries to influence my clothing style or my hair"
He turned back to her spinning wine in his glass. "No, I'm not a teacher. I'm more of a guest here. And sort of a guard"

“You know I don’t believe that it is a sin to brag about your talents. I bet you have many of them and I would just love it if you would show me them all.” Alice purred. She allowed him to take the lead as she was spun across the room, cutting their way easily through the crowd. “So far so good, Sir.”

Adia looked him up and down from behind her dark mask, her hand slowly sliding it's way down his chest. He had chosen his outfit well tonight. She didn't know him but she didn't want someone changing him either. Adia liked what she saw before. A grin formed on her red lips and she took the wine glass from his hands for a sip. "Sort of a guard? What does that mean exactly?"

Aidan froze when her hand slid down his chest. He wasn't prepared for this "That means I'm here to...um...Make sure that...no one does...anything dangerous" He said stuttering. "You know...like nothing that could...harm others" He explained gesturing with his hand. Just then she took his glass from him and took a sip of his wine. Aidan swallowed subconsciously

Just like Jasper Alice was a fantastic dancer and soon they took over the entire dance floor intimidating others with their grace. But Jasper wouldn't notice that. He could only see the beauty in front of him. "I'm afraid I can't do that here ma'am" he said with a small smirk. His arm tightened around her waist and he spun them together

Jacob sighed relaxing as she leant her head on his shoulder. "i know your not sick drop but you know what im talking about with feeling better, but if your fine then thats fine with me" he said wondering if he should put his arm around her. He just wanted to comfort her so he slowly moved his arm around her.

She didn't mind it felt good and she closed her eyes calmly.

"How dangerous could a room full of teenagers possibly be? Except that the birth rate may rise after tonight if all of these little boys succeed in getting lucky." Adia chuckled. He was stuttering and to her that was a good thing because she had gotten a reaction from him. She leaned in to him ever so slightly, taking another sip so that she had left a red lip print on the rim of the glass before passing it back to him. "Wouldn't talking to me distract you from your job?"

"Ah well, I don't believe that my husband would be very pleased if you showed me anyways." Alice sighed dramatically, twirling gracefully under his arm and biting down on her bottom lip to hold back her giggle. She was graceful in everything that she did. "He is the jealous type, you know? So be very careful Soldier.."

Jscob smiled his hand placed on her waist as if sheilding her from the owrld. Jacob liked being close to her made him feel happy. The wind slowly whipped at them and the music was drifting from the open doors. The trees where rustling and the moon was out. Now this was more like it he thought.
