well, it sure didn't look like a breakfast/dinner/dining hall anymore. decorations hung everywhere and buffet tables lined the sides of the walls which were filled with lavish foods (undoubtably cooked by the house-elves in the basement kitchen). the sky overhead was perfectly clear night sky and a dance floor was marked out in the top half of the hall. a lot of couple were already dancing. aftonie liked the idea of wearing masks to this ball. no one knew each other really, they had no idea who they were dancing with. that is, unless of course, you knew what the other person was wearing. some people had chosen to tell one another. the only person who knew aftonie's identity was addy. and this was how it was going to stay... well at least for now. aftonie moved her mask into a more comfotable position on her nose and got herself a glass of punch and waited nervously. she want entirely sure what for. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *[/color] tag: fitzwilliam. // word count: cba. // wearing: click credit: lyrics by all time low // template by: A CUPCAKE LOVER ! notes: hey chickadee :].[/color] [/center]

Why did he decide to come? Oh yea, Adelisa. He'd have to get her back for this. Darcy sighed and looked down, fiddling with the plain white mash he was wearing. Adelisa had insisted he needed another color beside black added to his wardrobe. He was practically her brother therefor she fussed over him all the time. He leaned against the wall and frowned scanning the other students. The idea of a masquerade was amazing but he was so damn nervous he'd end up staying glued to the wall the whole dance!
Then again he had the wrath of Adelisa to fear. Shaking his head he pushed off from the wall and went to get a drink. He sighed and went to grab a cup, but accidentally brushed the hand of quite a beautiful girl. Turning briiiight red he flinched back and began to stutter. "I-i'm so sorry I-i didn't see you!" He was slightly wide eyed, looking very very nervous. Pretty girls scared him.

he started to apologise while stuttering and tonie shook her head "no need to apologise. you didnt hurt me." she smiled at him, showing her pearly whites that were incredibly perfect and then she looked down at her feet again. even with heels on, aftonie only reached a height of five foot nine. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *[/color] tag: fitzwilliam. // word count: cba. // wearing: click credit: lyrics by all time low // template by: A CUPCAKE LOVER ! notes: hey chickadee :].[/color] [/center]

darcy blushed darkly and looked away. "i-i no but still." switching his shy gaze back to her he tousled his hair nervously. "i-i'm fitzwilliam charles darcy." he introduced himself quickly with a slight bow to be polite. "your v-very pretty." he stuttered, his heart hammering in his chest. he was just about to die talking to such a pretty girl, it was his worst fear. he bit his lip and looked away.
"i know you probably think i'm just stupid, it's just....pretty girls make me really nervous." he admitted. he felt like such an idiot but there wasn't much that could be done now.

'charlie' then stammered abour her looks she grinned encouragingly at him "aww, why what you my dear. your not looking too shabby yourself."
tonie's draw dropped in shock at his next announcement. "of course i dont think your stupid... i dont want to sound bigheaded... but i get it a lot. and its more because of my blood rather than my looks. well, i suppose its the same thing in my case." she had babbled then realised what she was doing so stopped and giggled sweetly towards chalie.

he smiled nervously at her. "really? your the only person who's thought of that. usually people call me darcy." he shrugged his shoulders and ran a hand through his hair. when she didn't introduce herself he figured she was going with the whole mystery thing. smiling shyly and flushing as she complimented him he tried to stammer a reply. "t-thanks."
darcy tilted his head and blinked. "your blood? whats wrong with your blood?" he furrowed his brow and shifted shyly looking down when she smiled at him. his heart was starting to race and he was a bit scared he might pass out right on the floor in front of her.

tony smiled, but nothing more. "well your charlie to me, its cuter." she took a small sip from the pinkish, red punch in the glass that she held in her left hand and lowered it again. it tasted of, strawberries. well, that was unexpected. but there was something else there, something that reminded her of the christmas feasts at hogwarts. not that she stayed every year, though this year she had too, her father was going off to canada to work in the ministry there for a few months.
tony managed to get her thoughts back on track and brought herself back to the present to hear him ask about her blood. she shook her head. "nothing is wrong with it." but instead of explaining she simply left it at that and took another drink, just looking at the masked figure in front of her.
