OOC: Er, I was addressing Nik and Zofia. If it would have been Harry, I would've had RPed differently. Lucuis is certain of what Harry looks like

"Nahh it's fine. i'm sure the Manor will be warm enough" Jess smiled.
Jessica was ecited abot going to this get together. She had been freinds with Draco at Hogwarts and hadn't seen him in a while. That's also how she knew Pansy.
"I'm sure they are, come on" Jess whispered, getting colder.

Once they apparated to the Malfoy Manor's large front door, Jessica's lips were turning blue.

Zofia's grey eyes landed on the tall figure of Lucius Malfoy standing in the doorway. "Good evening sir," she said with a small nod; her Polish accent extremely evident. Not exactly sure if he knew who they were, she decided it might be a good idea to introduce herself and her brother. "My name is Zofia Piotrowski and this is my elder brother, Nikolai. Thank you for having us in your lovely home," she said smoothly.

Nikolai nodded when his sister introduced him. "Yes, thank you sir. It is a bit nippy tonight," he added after his sister's most remarkable little speech. She had always been the speaker when it came to public events, such as these. He led Zofia into the manor and took her long overcoat off her shoulders after taking off his own. "Where, may I ask, shall I place these?" he asked, motioning to the two coats.

Looking around, Zofia doubted she would even know anyone. At Hogwarts, she and her brother had both been in Gryffindor. Thinking that her assumptions would be right, she figured there would be a side of the room with Gryffindors and a side with Slytherins. Is anyone ever going to get along? she thought.

After depositing the coats, Nik glided silently over to his sister. "You could cut the tension in here with a knife," he hissed in Polish to make sure no one would overhear. After taking in the glare from his sister, he noted that her expression changed as if she was silently agreeing with him.

"I know," Zofia hissed back in the very same language. "Maybe things will get better as the night goes on," she shrugged, hoping she didn't look like a fool at the end of the evening.

OOC: Not a problem, lol.

After the two unrecognizables were past him, Lucius looked on to the stone steps. He noticed a young woman striding up them and Harry Potter, looking around as if he were worried, anxious, and expecting something. Lucius felt something run through him, he still wasn't sure how to take Potter after everything had happened. True, he was grateful that Potter had saved Draco during the battle and had been gracious enough to be opposed to any of the Malfoy's being sent to Azkaban, but there was still...tension.

"Mr. Potter," Lucius called from the doorway. He stood there quite strongly, looking like a king guarding his castle.

"Hey. You got here safely." He said, quietly, trying not to be rude to Lucius, and yet wiggle out of talking to him at the same time. Unbelievable, Harry had been fine since the battle, so strong, until just now when he saw Lucius. "Should we wait for Ron?" he asked.
Charlie's silver heels clicked on the marble ground as she walked through the house to the room where the ball was being held. Not many people were dancing yet, but she could tell the party was just getting started. Where to head first? She wasn't sure, she hadn't talked to any of these people in so long, it was actually intimidating to stand before them. She shrugged off a light (as opposed to heavy) black shrug, placing it on a chair. Honestly, she looked stunning, but that only scared her even more as she stood there, vunerable.

Lucius took her cloak and tapped it with the end of his cane. It vanished instantly and he turned back toward Pansy.

"There is a group already forming in the ballroom, Pansy. I'm sure you remember where that is," Lucius said nicely. He had been friends with the Parkinson's and had hosted many parties before when both Pansy and Draco were quite younger.

"I'm afraid Draco is dwaddling upstairs. I'm not sure what is taking him, but he should be down shortly."

Er... we started! Ah! ><;

"Are you bloody ready or not?" Sirius spat, standing at the door smoothing over his brand new dress jacket and messing with his tie. He appeared younger than ever. With a chance to shave and tidy up a little bit. His grey eyes stared ahead, as his hands fiddled nervously. "Remus!" He yelled impatiently. That man was worse than him. And everyone who knew him.. knew that there was nobody worse at taking time then himself..

"Rightyo! I'm coming Sirius, keep your ruddy pants on!" Remus called back with soft laughter to his tone. He had just finished smoothing out the tops of his hair, when Sirius, the Oh-So-Impatient-One, yelled out for him.
Standing quickly, taking one last glance at the mirror before him, he dashed out of the room, down the steps and towards the door where Sirius stood. "Alright, alright. I don't see what's got your knickers in a bunch. You hate that man..." He smiled at his friend and pat him on the back, going to step forward.

"It is a chance to see Harry, you know. Not a chance to get along with part of my family." Sirius spat at this, making a disgusted face. Remus laughed. "I'm ready when you are I suppose." He said, ignoring Remus's laughter.

Patting his hair down one last time, Remus reached for the door, stepping out into the brisk air and the drawing night. He took a deep breath, and turned waiting for Sirius to follow.

Rolling his eyes and muttering a few curses under his breath, Sirius quietly (as humanly possible) closed the door behind him, and stepped away towards Remus, the nights air invigorating. He too took in a deep breath and walked forward. They would pick a spot away from his home at Grimmauld Place to apparate to the Malfoy Manor. Sirius looked at Remus with a rather uneasy anticipation.

"Let's go." Remus turned from there and walked away, and not a moment later he apparated on the spot to the Malfoys front gate. Sirius appearing shortly after him.

"Ready?" Remus asked, looking at Sirius with a raised eyebrow.

"Ready as I'll ever be." Sirius muttered back.

Remus then perceeded to push open the front gates, and they both made their way toward the front door. By the sounds of it, there were already guests inside. "I'll knock then." Remus inclined, reaching forward to rapp his knuckles on the door softly. His eyes averted to Sirius who was standing with his eyes on his feet and his fingers idley playing with his tie. "Stopit" He hissed, reaching over to pull down Sirius' hands. "Just remember that you are a guest in this house, and that you can at least attempt to treat the Malfoys with some dignity and respect." He repremanded, as Sirius lifted his head to glare.

"Let's go in, shall we?" Harry invited, even if he wasn't really the one to be inviting people. He walked up the steps to the front door, and to Lucius. "Excuse me," he mumbled, walking past him and towards the ballroom. It was gorgeous. Harry was simply amazed by the house, and the party.
Someone was waving at her. Who was that girl? And who was that boy with her?? Not to be the only thing that she thought about, but he was cute! Oh, Charlie faintly remembered them, Zofia and Nik. They were in Gryffindor. She didn't talk to them much while they were in school, being that she and her brother were Slytherins and all, but Charlie walked over to them none-the-less. "Hey," she said, smiling warmly.

Cassie nodded her head as she followed Harry inside. The house was just so amazing. "Oh... Harry... it's so... beautiful..." she said in barely a whisper, breathtaken.

Draco had been deciding whether or not he should go down. He really didn't want to face all of these people anymore. He then came to a decision, he'd go down. He walked down the stairs as he gazed at both familiar and unfamiliar faces among the sea of people in the house. Draco sighed and continued walking, then he saw two people he knew. Harry Potter and Cassie Bliss. Draco decided to walk over to them. So he did and nodded his head at both of them. "Harry... Cassie..." he said as nicely as he could.

Cassie's face soon hardened. Draco had come to them. He seemed too be more weary these days than back then, but Cassie couldn't blame him. "Draco," she said, nodding her head.

This was not good, "Maybe I should just go." she whispered to herself. What? Are we being a coward? No! Alright fine I'll mingle. She put on a cheery face, "Harry! Cassie! How are you guys?"

Ron saw the twins and felt a pang of sadness as he remembered his diseased brother but he pushed that away, he had to move on.

ooc- ok i fixed that lil prob. sorry bout that

"Hello, Draco." Harry answered rather softly. Harry didn't possess the hate he had once had for Draco. He realized it had always been childish and it was really just time to leave it alone. Plus, Harry was in Draco's own house, huge as it might be, that he wouldn't want to upset his host. That was pure manners.

Charlie felt a pang as she saw Draco come downstairs. It had been years since she had seen him, but he still had the ability to make her heart beat in her throat. He had always been handsome, and Charlie felt he had only gotten more so. She hoped he remembered her, it would be hard not to, but she hoped he would. Charlie smoothed her dress, only hoping she looked as stunning as when she had left the house. She didn't feel as nice, but that might have been nerves.

Ooc: Well, what twins are you talking about? I'm assuming you are not talking about mine?
As a side note (mostly if Ron was talking to me) my characters were Slytherins. Just saying this since the only people whom have spoken to me so far are Slytherin, and my character's family and the Malfoys were very close.

Draco nodded his head and attempted a smile. "So... what do you think of the party so far?" he asked, looking around the room they were in.

Cassie decided to say hello to Hermione first before she jumped into their conversation. She walked away from them and gave Hermione a hug. "Hey! I haven't seen you in a while!" Cassie said, slowly pulling away from Hermione.
