Time for an elegant show of grace! She took a deep breath, balanced herself on one heel-clad foot, and executed a deep curtsy perfectly. Which was good considering she had no clue how that was going to turn out wearing heels. She had practiced, of course, in front of the mirror but had neglected to do so while practicing in her full regalia.

"It was my pleasure and thank you too," she said, meaning both for the dance and the night. "So, what'll it be? Another dance, walk around for a bit? Or will you leave me now to my own devices?" she asked hoping that the third option would be ignored as a joke. She liked having someone to talk to and it wouldn't hurt to get to know the members of her house better. This seemed like the perfect occasion.

Austin watched as she curtsied, a proper curtsy this time too, and bowed in response. "Trust me, darling, it was my pleasure." He was loving this formal, gentlemanly attire. He loved bowing and dancing, and calling his friend 'darling' and 'sweetie'. Hopefully she didn't mind. He didn't mean it to be derogatory or anything. It was all a part of the night. Plus, this girl he didn't know just said he looked gentlemanly in his suit, and in his mind that was just icing on the cake.

DING DONG

Suddenly a loud dong let the whole student body know that midnight had come. As soon as the clock struck midnight, it felt as though a strange air had been lifted from the room. Maybe that was the spell being lifted, which would be nice. But the stroke of midnight also meant that Ophelia hadn't shown for the event at all. He had half expected it, with the events with her friend and all. But there was always that small glimmer of hope that maybe she would show. It was alright though. He was mad with Ophelia Clarke, but at least the night wasn't in vain, and he hoped that his friend thought so too.

He decided to take his mask off, which may have seem uncool, but it was time she got to see him for himself. Plus, how else was she going to know who he was when he gave her that bag of candy. She didn't necessarily have to take off his mask, he was sure they would meet again.

"Actually," He began. And now his awkwardness was showing through. He looked nervous and to cover that up, he bowed again. "I would love it if you would accompany me for a stroll." He hoped him being a gentleman would cover his awkwardness. After he got up from his bow he held out his arm for her to either reject, or to take. He hoped for the latter, but she was a girl of her own choices. But he would love if he would be able to continue his night with the company of his new friend.
