grace was extremely excited for the ball, and she’d just got up to her dorm, and was beginning to get ready. she was going to find xavier later, as he had some stuff to do as head boy. sometimes that annoyed her a little, but she loved him so was willing to let his duties come first. it wasn’t as if there were loads, it just meant that sometimes she had to do stuff on her own. her other other-half olivia was already down there – probably dancing away – she was a lot less shy than grace was. grace was planning on going down there, sitting at the side, drinking some pumpkin punch and then dancing with xavier for a bit before heading up to bed. sounded pretty much perfect to her, and she was looking forward to once again being in xavier’s arms.
she set to getting ready – changing out of her jeans and t shirt into her blue silk strapless dress. she then headed into the bathroom, to wash her face and apply make up. dark blue eyeshadow, with black eyeliner on both the top and bottom lids. then mascara to finish it off. grace carefully applied the make up and then smiled in the mirror, fairly pleased. now to do her hair, she turned on the curling tongs, and left them to heat whilst she rummaged through her jewellery. she found some silver bracelets, as well as a silver necklace with a leaf on it. she put these on and then went back to the tongs, labouriously taking sections of her hair and curling them until she was left with dark brown tousled ringlet curls. satisfied, grace put on her mask, and her black high heels, and grabbed her silver clutch bag. she was ready to go.
grace left the common room and followed a crowd of people down towards the great hall. there were lots of others outside the hall, and she passed a few groups of people that she recognised as slytherins – she also passed a few groups of people who were definitely weasleys. they weren’t all that conspicuous with their trademark red hair. she headed straight over to the food and drinks table, taking a glass of pumpkin punch and sipping at it. she tried to spot her sister, and succeeded – there she was with her green dress on dancing with a guy who grace didn’t know. grace couldn’t see xavier anywhere so she sat back, and drank the pumpkin punch.
