Valentine's Dance, Town Hall, Saturday Evening

Feb 14, 2015 09:33

It was Valentine's Day, and love was in the air! Or pollen. Love pollen? Something like that, anyway. It wasn't like the holiday cared any, after all. Not when there was a dance to be had. And this year's dance had just the thing to take everybody's mind off of that pesky pollen!

That's right, dancing. Which, to the uninitiated, might seem a bit ( Read more... )

They're... relatively shadowy, given the light show and all. They're more shadowy than the rest. They are well-lit enough that if you get any ideas, the chaperones will probably be able to catch you, though, so it's probably still a good idea to take anything beyond kissing to a dorm or hotel room.

Cassandra did not wish to dance, and she was not hungry, and her mind kept skipping irritatingly to shallow affairs, so. This was where she was. In the corner. Wondering why she had ever thought it was a good idea to come here in the first place.

Having avoided dancing and having picked up a drink along the way, Ronan was now standing in the shadows. He sipped his drink occasionally and shifted every once in awhile because this stupid feeling still had not gone away.

It couldn't be helped that he was looking at people differently now, eyes stopping on certain people before he kicked himself and moved on. But, then the whole process would start again and again and yeah.

The dark corners seemed appropriate for today. Flick shrank back into them, eyes mostly on the ground and the walls because he really didn't want to look at other people right now.

It'd just make the itch worse.

Oh, there he was. Isabelle wasn't going to say anything about the predictability of him hiding in darkness, oh no. Instead, she walked right up to him on her ridiculous heels, and reached out to yank him closer to her.

He was getting kissed now.

Well now.

Flick hadn't exactly been paying attention to anything but himself so getting yanked and then kissed surprised him. He had to actually focus to make sure he wasn't getting kissed by someone who'd get him in trouble.

But, he recognized her lips and smell and feeling almost immediately and relaxed, kissing her back as he did.

And that meant Isabelle wound her arm around his neck and kept drawing out the kiss for a long, lingering moment.

And even when she pulled back, her breath was still on his lips so she really hadn't moved much. "Thank you for the flowers," she whispered, but it wasn't really the flowers she was thanking him for.

Flick had to take a moment to catch his breath and lick his lips. "You're welcome. Didn't know if they'd be dead before you got back. Didn't know when I'd see you again."

He knew what she was thanking him for really but he wasn't going to talk about that unless she asked.

She wasn't going to ask about that right now. "Jace woke up," she murmured instead. "I'm here."

In case he somehow couldn't tell by the tall body pressed against him.

"Good," he told her, sliding his hand up and down her back and sighing. "Is he all right?"

"He's still glowing," she said, quietly, trying - and failing - to not lean against him some more. "And tired, and the wound's still healing. But he'll be okay."

"Good," he murmured, blinking slowly at her. "That's good to hear."

"You look good." That didn't really follow from what either of them had just been saying, but she was looking at him, and, well, that was what came out. "You look really good."

"Think so?" he asked, playing coy. H e licked his lips and glanced down at her. "So do you. Nice dress."

Really nice dress with the legs and the arms and the hair.

With the everything, yes.

Isabelle stared at his lips.

"I know. But thank you."

Flick chewed on his lower lip and scratched his fingernails against her back. "You're welcome. Happy Valentine's Day. I didn't get anything but the flowers. Wasn't sure when you'd be back."

And he'd been planning on a night his own, trying not to look at anyone else.
