Stuck inside with Sirius | *Splish-Splash* | bamBAM | ☁ Spooktacular ☁ Hermy was feeling incredibly awkward. She still didn't quite know why she was here - a whole six years on - and she definitely had mixed memories of her time at Hogwarts. Of the people she met, and the things she experienced.
She took a deep breath, and fiddled with her dress. Again. She'd been screwing it up in her hands nervously the whole way here. And it wasn't the best of fabrics for creasing. Meh.
She'd been persuaded to wear said dress, but she definitely didn't feel comfortable in it. Far from it. And considering Hermy was all about comfort and being herself, she was feeling very conspicuous in such a high impact number. On her own. No partner. Sure, she'd designed the fabric. And it had been styled into an amazing dress by a top designer, but why had she been chosen to model it herself at this particular event? Gah. Silly idea on the part of her studio partner.
And so, she stood there, trying to relax before heading into the actual ballroom and dance floor. With all the watching eyes. Maybe she'd see a friendly face or two first.
