Lena looked over to see Em waving at Chris.... CRAP!!! Helena's eyes squinted in frustration for a moment before she threw a half-forced smile Emiliano's way.

Lena hesitantly looked back at Chris at his exclamation before sighing. Leave it to Em to ruin my perfectly good incognito run, she mumbled, looking at the floor before her eyes came back up to his. Hey, Chris, she said with a small smile.

Tia entered the entrance hall it was weird for her back at Hogwarts after so many years of being away she checked her apperance and gulped she hoped that there were people who she knew from her time at school to be here and she hated coming to big events alone

Trixie jumped as she heard a voice form behind but turned around a little too quickly. "Milo" she hugged him then stepped back. "Oh I don't know. Depends whether anyone wants to take me to the ball" she said with a slight smirk. She looked into the Great Hall and then back to Milo. "Are you ready?" she asked softly.

Milo furrowed his brow. "Aren't you even going to tell me how nice I look? I called you beautiful and all!" he exclaimed spinning around and then almost falling over because he tripped over his shoelace.

Blushing he stood up straight and looked down at Trixie. "I'll be ready when you say how dashing I look and give me a little kiss." Yes, that seemed fair enough.

Okay. Confussion was definitely speaking between Christopher and Helena. Em saw the wrinkled face his friend did, so typical of him. Haha. As he approached, with punch glass in his hand, he smiled to them, though still feeling weird about it. "Haii..." He greeted, just when he heard Lena said he was about to do an incognito run? "...Helena, you look great tonight..." Just a compliment. Nothing else for this lady...haha.

Sure, make up did a miracle on her, so did the heels, because Annie could easly kiss Drew back in his cheek, without having to tiptoe. "Thanks..." She answered, almost blushing. "Ready to party, Sparks?" The girl asked flashing a wide smile to her boyfriend. Because she was more than ready.

Trixie rolled her eyes but completely grinned at him. "So handsome Milo I almost didn't recognise you" she said truthfully. Then he asked for a kiss so she raised an eyebrow slightly but kissed him lightly on the lips. "Better?" she asked blushing slightly.

Emma entered the ballroom, wearing her favourite light blue dress. Wow a lot of people were in here. She turned to see a familar face. "Trixie! You look gorgeous!" she cried, giving her cousin a hug. She noticed a guy there. "Hi I'm Emma, Trixie's cousin. So you are Milo! Nice to meet you!" she cried grinning at him.

"Hiii Lena." Chris said no trace of a smile on his face. Come on his ex-girlfriend just lied to him and he feels really really stupid at the moment. Most of all that Emiliano figured out how it was before he did..."How was Canada?" He asked nicely.

Thank you Emiliano! "Heyyyy Em! How have you been?" He asked giving him a warm smile as he reached out to give him a hand shake because Emiliano was nice and didn't lie to himmmm!

"Yes of course I am." Drew said smiling just as wide as he felt that kiss on his cheek. "Mostly because you are here now." He teased her as he offered to his arm to Annie. "I think it's funny how you don't have to reach to kiss my cheek now." He said with a small chuckle.

Timothy Glided into the great hall, his crimson dress robes shining in the relative dark of the room. He could see his darling date, Miss Madeline Force awaiting him talking to a few of her friends. She was also wearing the necklace he had given her, what a nice girl.

He glided up and extended his hand to her, took her hand in his and kissed it. "Hello my lady, my apologise that I am late....."

((really I am quite sorry))

Well, the jig was up now. She just better not run into Blake face-to-face, grrrr.... Emiliano spoke just as Helena waved her wand wearily to return the shape of her nose and mouth to normal - she kept the hair, though, she was growing quite fond of it. Thanks, Em. You look dashing, as always, she said with a small smile.

Awwww great. No hint of a smile from Chris. Sigh. Canada was gorgeous as always, she commented with a nod, her eyes returning slowly to the light gray they had flashed to before. Look, I'm sorry. The disguise wasn't originally to hide from you, trust me, she said more quietly.

Both greetings seemed as if Em had interruped a weird talk. Of course, those two had something to talk about. And Em was the third in question that needed to get away from there. Turning to Chris, he chuckled. "You won't believe it, I'm back in London and ready to continue my University here..." That was scary, because it was mostly social working. "How about you, bud?" Ahem, that's Em talking.

And Em turned to see Helena again, noticing that her nose was a bit...twisted. He didn't know if he should tell her, unless a girl was there to do so, so he decided to say nothing about it, until she maybe noticed it or someone else said something.

Annie moaned. "You don't know how much not tiptoeing hurts." She said almost walking on one foot as she tried to reach out for her right one. "I should have continued practicing my heel walking with Lori..." The girl in pain told her boyfriend. She couldn't resist it anymore. She was about to turn her shoes into heeless ones, or use her ballerina ones. But she had to resist at least one piece.

Dress and such is found on post 74 of the Who are you... sticky thread. ^_^
 

YAY! Vanessa thought she looked cute! Well, Evangeline already knew she looked cute, really. Absent mindedly running her fingers through her black curls, she grinned at the girl. "Thank you! I was beginning to think bringing a short dress had been a mistake." She thought out loud, smoothing out the possible wrinkles her dress might have gotten already. "But I tend to trip on them."

Still clumsy, she was.

And Vannie didn't wear long dresses because of her height? Hmm, Evangeline analysed her outfit before nodding in agreement. "I suppose short dresses do make you seem taller. But you really aren't that small anymore." She wasn't!!

Chris listened as Lena said how Canada was gorgeous and blah blah blah! "That's very cool that you enjoyed it there. Are you still there or what?" He asked curiously. But to her next comment he just nodded. Trust her after that!!! "It was Blake?" He asked just as quietly though he knew that answer already.

"Back in London huh? Sounds nice I wish I was back." Chris said with a chuckle. "Actually I'm now in California. We just got off of a small tour as an opening act but it was fun. Though I don't think I'm going to like living on a bus." He joked.

Chris watched as Lena turned back to normal but her nose was slightly twisted. He laughed slightly. "Lena...your nose is kind of messed up." He told her with a small smile.

Drew frowned slightly as he saw how much pain Annie was in. Awwww. "I honestly don't know why you girls wear those darn things. They really don't look comfortable and if you are going to be on you feet most of the night. It's probably not the smartest idea to wear them." He commented.

In theory, yes, Lena replied quietly with a nod, ending the whispered conversation. No, I'm living in Ireland at the moment - almost three months now. I don't know how much longer I'll be there, though, she said at normal volume with a shrug.

Helena relaxed a bit at Chris's laugh and quickly pulled out a mirror to re-fix it, hoping the laugh was because bad feelings were over and not because she looked like an idiot.... even if she did. When her nose was normal-looking once more, she put away the small mirror and said. Stupid thing hasn't been right since I broke it a few weeks ago, but she returned Chris's small smile.

"Nothing is a mistake Evie." Vannie explained with a little giggle. That was something that she had learnt from Lyra haha. She twirled a strand of her hair, with a smile as she watched her friend. "You look great anyway..." She giggled with a big smile. But then again she'd always thought that Evie was beautiful. "Is Cliffie here?" She asked with a smile. Because she loved the guy who had nick named her snot girl. Haha. But it would be fun to see him again, seeing as she hadn't seen him for a while.

"Mhmm.....and I liked this one better." Because it was totally Vannie. And Lyra had approved of it, so she had worn out. "I'm not small anymore?" Vannie giggled, before shaking her head. Was Evie kidding? "I'm 5 foot 2 babe." She commented with a smile. "The heels probably make the difference up." Seeing as they were like 4 inches high.

"Yeah, so far London treats the new-comers really good, so I'm sure you'll like coming back..." Emiliano answered, shortly. He knew he was in the middle of a conversation. "Guys, I should just leave for a while, I have to find my cousin, Anna..." OH oh, beware Robles. :evil: And with a small wave, Em left the ex-couple with their talk.

Anna looked at Drew. "Well, they looked good with the dress and..." She had no more reasons. Her boyfriend was right. She didn't have to wear those things. "I'll just change them to my ballerinas...I think I'll be smiling like the Chirese Cat after that..." Annie said, looking around for a seat.

Chris nodded. It wasn't like he was jealous!!! "Oh Ireland wow. You never could stay in one place for to long." Chris joked though it was true.

"You broke it?" He asked raising an eyebrow. "And how did you do that Crawley?" He asked. She broke her nose realllly!? Hehe! Though Chris liked it much better when Lena looked like herself even if she did have blonde hair noooow.

Awww Em was leaving. "Alright I'll see you later mate." He said.

"They do look very good with the dress. But I rather see you smiling than in pain all night." He said smiling wide. Drew watched as Annie started looking for a seat. "Why not use magic?" He asked.

Oh, look at that! Vanessa Corbette had grown into quite a fashion adviser. "Stop now, or I might just have to drag you out with me to my shopping trips." And that was exciting. Taking your boyfriend's brother with you to shop was beginning to feel a bit weird. "You do too. You can always pull off colours." Which sounded kinda like a lame compliment. But it was a pretty good one.

"It's beautiful! I totally approve." The pale girl grinned with a firm nod before shrugging her shoulders. "That's not really short! I dont think so! If you went to Japan, you'd be a GIANT!" Yup, so she wasn't short. Looking around, Evangeline wondered where her Quidditch player of a boyfriend was. "He is here...somewhere. I think he saw one of his teammates and went to discuss tactics for the next match or something." She said with a chuckle and a dismissive hand wave.

"Oooh. Drag me outtt!" Vanessa giggled, as she nudged her friend. "I LOVE shopping." Thank you Lyra. Haha. But she really did like shopping, which was probably a bit of a bad idea seeing as she was spending an awful lot of money on clothes...instead of spending it on things for her baby girl. "I might need to start buying things for Grace instead of myself though." Because she did have to look after her baby. Hehe. "I like colours." She smiled, smoothing her dress out. And the dress was from Paris too, so it was pretty amazing. hehe.

"Lyra made me buy it" Well hardly made because she was quite willing to buy it really, because it was a beautiful dress, but still Lyra had totally pushed her to buy it. "But seeing as I like in England." She giggled with a big grin. She was tiny, she knew she was, but she didn't care. She made tiny beautiful, especially on those photoshoots hehe. "I always knew Cliffie would go into quidditch." Because he was cool like hat. hehe.

bwahaha...Em meeting Drew...this will be epic to this guy of mine
 

And Em went in search for her cousin, Anna who obviously was going to be in company of her boyfriend. Mwahahaaa. Time to pay up, Robles after all those years of teasing. Right, Annie was the evil person in the story. Finally, Em caught glance of a couple, and her cousin wearing a PINK dress. Shocked, he approached them and said, "Oh you look PINKamazingness tonight, Robles..." He said in a teasing tone.

Annie was having a marvelous time, she was this close to take out her wand as being a great idea from her boyfriend. "Good one...I just can't think wearing these things..." She told him flashing a smile to him. But then, that voice was heard. OH NO. PLEASE NO.

She turned around. "Saenz...thanks..." She tried to smile. But Annie was not happy. Emililano mentioning her PINK ugly dress was almost making her throw up. "You look...great..I guess..." She rolled her eyes then looked back at her boyfriend. "Drew, he's Emiliano, my cousin...Em, he's Andrew, my boyfriend..." Smile, smile. Where's your date, EM? Eh eh?

Fallon's is somewhere on the first page
 

Fallon walked away from the receiving line. She couldn't see Torin anywhere. She then spotted Iris who seemed to be looking for someone. She walked through the crowd, watching her dress yet again. It was so big she was afraid of knocking someone over.

Finally, she reached Iris and smiled at her. "You look gorgeous Iris." She tried to give her friend a hug, but her dress was kind of in the way. "I should've gotten a less poofy dress." She giggled at her own comment.

If Vanessa wanted so much to go shopping with Evangeline, well - Evangeline might just do that. It isnt like she didnt like shopping and if you had that to one of your good friends - well, it sounded like a pretty good afternoon. "Next time I get a day off, I'll owl you then." She said with a wink and a small bounce ... which was probably best not repeat. Not on those shoes. But ... Grace? "Who is Grace, if you dont mind me asking?" Vans' friend? Why would she need to buy stuff for her friend? Hmm.

Her smile grew wider once more when Vannie informed her that Lyra had made her buy it. "Good thing she did. You look amazing." She truly did. Short or tall, she looked amazing. Hehe. "Clifford and quidditch are a match made in Heaven. You should go watch him play someday!"
