Tethys walked into the ballroom in her new dress. She wandered over to a corner and stood there waiting... She doubted her date would come. She would probably be standing here for a while....

Gem entered the Dance Hall and admired the decoration of the Valentine's Dance. She was wearing a royal blue dress, nothing fancy. She felt she didn't have to go all out like the Yule Ball. She stood near the entrance to wait for Sammy, Cynthia, and Leki.

Sammy noticed Gem right away and walked over to her.
"Hey Gemini," he said slowly, emphasizing on Gem's full name.

Tethys watched a few other people enter and talk to each other. She stood silent in her corner watching for a little while, and then looking away. After standing for a few minutes looking at the ground, she walked over to the refreshments table. She admired the food and drinks so beautifully arranged on the table, and got herself some punch. She sipped it quietly as she walked slowly back to her corner. Her date probably wasnt coming....maybe she should just leave...

Gem turned around to greet Sammy.
He was dressed nicely, though he always was dressed like he was someone important. She thought it was strange seeing as he didn't have to impress girls anymore after he started dating Cynthia. Gem feared Sammy might be cheating on Cynthia. Then she remember they were at a dance and it was normal to dress well.
She gave a confused look to Sammy, wondering why he had used her full name. She thought to ask him why, but decided against it. Sometimes Sammy was just strange like that.
"Hello Samuel," she said using his whole name. "Where's Cynthia? Didn't she come with you?"

The Hufflepuff sixth year entered the hall wearing a nice black tuxedo with a pink flower pinned to the pocket. His blonde hair was nicely gelled back. He observed the room. It was decorated nicely. He went over to the Snacks and Refreshments table, notcing that everything was now filled and ready for the night. He looked up and saw a girl in a beautiful black dress. " Wonder if that first year gave her the note yet ".
He was not talking about this beautiful girl standing before him. He was talking about another. This girl was special for him. She is in the house, Ravenclaw.
It was silent around the table. So Bill decided to speak to the other seventh year. " Hello. My name is Billy. My, you look beautiful tonight ", he commented.

"Why does Cynthia have to come with me? Leki didn't come with you!" he replied to Gem's question with a snap. He didn't mean to sound angry so he changed the subject.
"Is this all you and Leki are doing for Valentine's Day? I want to take Cynthia to Hogsmeade for a date but I'm waiting till Saturday. Sunday's my birthday, you know."
He ruffled his hair a bit, trying to push down his spikes but it was no use. "17. Can you believe it? I'll be a legal adult!"

"Leki and I haven't done anything. I haven't even seen him since lunch. He did give me a gift though," she said sadly. She would have wanted to do something else with Leki but money was tight.
She pointed at the necklace she was wearing. It was a silver color. "White gold. Can't have silver can I? I don't really like yellow gold. It matches the engagement ring." She pointed to the ring.
"Oh yeah, Sunday's the 19th isn't it? It must be strange to have the same birthday as my aunt."

Leki probably could have been heard from all over the dance hall, since the boots he was wearing made quite audible clomping noises, they went with his choice of attire, which was a uniform that his dad used to wear, he had his hands behind his back as he went over towards Gem.

Amy's purple dress robes flowed as she swifted into the Dance Hall. She noticed only a few students there so far. She spotted Gem and company, early as always. She hoped there wouldn't be any fighting this time.

Amber entered the Dance Hall. She was wearing a beautiful lavender gown. Her hair was put up in a pony tail. Around her neck was a silver necklace with a unicorn charm in the middle. She looked down and fiddled with the unicorn charm a little. " Well....here I go ". She walked into the Dance Hall with grace, then stopped and observed the place.
It looked simply beautiful. There was a crystal chandelier hanging and a red rose that opened and closed. There were also rose petals on the floor.
" Wow ", she said silently. " Simply beautiful ". She went over to the Snacks and Refreshments table and suddenly noticed somebody familiar. It was Billy. She knew what he was expecting. The first year bit her lip. She was not sure if the girl read the note or not. She just gave it to her, then went on her merry little way to prepare for the ball. " Oh well. In time, I guess ".
She bravely went over to the table and greeted Bill with a smile. " Hey Bill...what's up? Wow, you look....fabulous in that black tux ". She then noticed the Gryffindor seventh year girl. " Hello! ".ooc: the dress: vintageous.com/v2480.jpg

Gem saw her aunt enter and also Leki. She waved at Leki but ignored her aunt. Her aunt was wearing purple as usual. Amy always looked elegant no matter what. Gem didn't think anyone would notice she was turning 41 on Sunday.
Leki on the other hand was wearing something like a military uniform. She wondered why she never saw him in it before. She thought he looked exceptionally handsome tonight so she didn't mind that he was dressed so strangely.
"Hi Leki," she smiled at him as she moved to hug him.

"Hey Leki," Sammy said quietly.
It wasn't that he wasn't excited that Leki was there, it was just he was disapointed that Cynthia wasn't. Where could she be? He was worrying. It wasn't like Cynthia to just not show up and not tell him.

She bravely went over to the table and greeted Bill with a smile. " Hey Bill...what's up? Wow, you look....fabulous in that black tux ". She then noticed the Gryffindor seventh year girl. " Hello! "."Hello" Tethys said quietly to the girl. Maybe Tethys could talk to people to get her mind off her date's abscence. "I'm Tethys. Whats your name?" She spoke softly |

" Amber, Amber Brown ", she exclaimed to Tethys. " Nice to meet you, by the way ". She took a glance around the Dance Hall, then back to Tethys. " They did a nice job decorating ". She looked at Billy and smiled. " A very nice job "." Thanks, Amber ", replied Billy to the girl when she complimented on his tux. When she began talking about the decorations, Billy smiled sheepishly. " Yeah...er well ". He fiddled with the flower that was pinned to his pocket. " It took some time ". He looked up at Tethys. He was listening to their little conversation. " That is a nice name ".ooc: don't worry, Bill is my charrie also

" Billy...And yeah, I know. We're twins ". He glanced at Amber for a minute with a look of question. " I do hope that she gave that letter to Spyke in time.... ".
" Twins? ". It was like she first found out. " Oh yeah! Your brother....how could I forget about Bob. He was there with you when you gave me the- ". But she stopped when she got the message from Billy not to mention the letter.

"Well then Billy, where is Bishop? I was looking for him, but hes not here. I'd understand if you didn't know, though. Me and my twin sister, Victoria don't always tell each other everything there is to know. Well actually I don't really think she'd care about anything but please do answer my question." she spoke in a soft voice and smiled.

" I'm not really sure. I asked someone, but I will have to wait 'til she comes. As for you and Bob, you are a very lucky young lady to have him ". He smiled softly.

"Bishop seems kinda evil, but hes cute." She said sweetly. She quickly added "And Billy, I may be lucky but don't call me 'young lady' ever again. I'm alot older than you Mr!" She said with a joking tone

" Ok then, Tethys. How about young woman? And yes you are right about Bishop ".
Amber noticed Erica. She smiled slightly and went over to the other first year girl. " Hey Erica. How are you? ".

Tethys took another sip of her punch and smiled "Who did you invite anyways?" Tethys spoke with an inquisite tone "Would I know her?"

" You might ", he said in a casual tone. He poured himself a glass of punch and took a little sip from the cup. " When is she coming? ".

He arched an eyebrow, but then a smile played his features. " Ok, I'll tell you. Her name is Spyke....but I'm not sure if she would say yes. I sent her a note ".
