"Hi Lux. I have to say that you look very beautiful. Me? I hope so. I don't want to disappoint her," Sander looked at his clothing again.
Then he looked down at Lux. "Have you seen the others? Who's your date for tonight, Lux?" he asked the younger girl. Come again? o_O
Lux was surprised when for the second time Sander called her beautiful; the first had been at the dance lessons. Turning slightly red, she was kind of flattered at the really high compliment. "You won't disappoint her. I look okay. I am sure it will be Tessa who looks truly beautiful." Especially in his eyes, because she had seen the way he looks at her many times over the month. And as she always looked back at him the same way, surely Tessa would find Sander every bit as handsome as he found her beautiful.
Had she seen the others? Lux shook her head. She had not seen Tessa yet, or Bay. She assumed he would be coming here with his girlfriend, which was why she had not asked him to be her Valentine. "My date for tonight is Louis." And yes, it was strictly platonic; just her asking her loyal Squire to be her Valentine. Quote:

Anyway... adjusting his tie, the Puffer fish scanned the room for Sophie.
Not much students were there yet. But he did spot Lux and Sander whom he waved to. Then he caught sight of Sophie. Wow! She looked breath taking. It took Adi a moment to realise he was staring. Coming out of his reverie, he calmly made his way towards her. This was no time for nerves to get the better of him. Nope. He must remain cool. "Hi, Sophie. You look beautiful.'' Even more beautiful than usual, in fact. Spotting Adi waving over to her and Sander, Lux smiled and waved back. He was looking quite dapper today. Wondering if he was going to come over to them and talk, she saw that instead his eyes were focused on a girl who looked about their age who she had seen before in classes. Awww, was she his Valentine? That was so cute. Deciding that maybe she would say hello to him later, she left them to it. Quote:

Nevertheless, she was not one to miss out on a fun evening she hoped. Wearing her best red dress with her hair freshly dyed, Alex entered the Great Hall. She was determined to have a good time....or else.
Alex spent a moment taking in the scene. The room had truly been transformed for the evening. Spotting Sander and Lux, she decided to say hello before checking out the other activities. Knowing that they had dates to attend to, she knew that she had better say her hellos quickly and headed in their direction. Oh, and there was Alex! She was looking good tonight as well. Everyone was, and there seemed to be a lot of happiness in the air - besides at the game centre at least. "Hey, Alex. You are looking very nice," she said as she made her way over to them. "Who's your date?" Curious and all that. Quote:
Originally Posted by Gryffindoll Louis hadn't really given Valentine's much thought in the past couple weeks; actually, he had completely forgotten the special event until he found the Great Hall closed down earlier that day for preparations. And though he was feeling a little lazy about the whole thing now (the castle and the grounds were so wonderfully empty with all the students gathered in the Great Hall), he knew he couldn't bail. He had a lovely little lady counting on him, after all.
All dressed up in a black tuxedo with a bow tie, Swaggy!Lou walked into the overwhelmingly red-and-pink, heart-shaped-objects infested Great Hall.
Wow. Yeah, the lovey-dovey vibe was overwhelmingly strong in this place. The boy looked around the Hall for a moment, eyebrows raising with amusement over the pro-Valentine's and anti-Valentine's themes on the food tables, before he spotted two familiar faces at one of the tablecloth-covered tables. Lux and Sander were already here!
Smiling, Louis made his way over to his two friends. "Looking good, mate," he said, clapping the elegant Sander's back in greeting and flashing the boy a friendly smile. His gaze then traveled over to Lady Lux, who looked absolutely doll-like in her bright pink dress and straight red hair. He was a little surprised she wasn't in a more frilly dress, something more... childlike. She seemed unusually grown-up.
"M'lady." He bowed to her in greeting, as he always did since being assigned the role of squire. "You look beautiful tonight," he added as he straightened up, giving his friend a broad smile. His right hand disappeared into one of the pockets of his jacket and he proceeded to pull out a small square box with a bow on top. The box rattled a little as he handed it to Lux. "Happy Valentine's Day," he said with a smile. It was just a life-sized large chocolate frog he'd gotten from Honeydukes (its size proved it would be more challenging to catch and eat), it wasn't meant to be romantic or anything, just poked fun at Lux's and Lou's love for chocolate frogs and all things sweet. Again with the beautiful.
She was going to be as red as the heart decorations around the room by the end of the night if this didn't stop.
Smiling, she curtsied to him after he bowed. "You are looking very nice, Louis. Very handsome." She knew that he had made sure to dress very nice for his Lady.
Awww, he had brought her a present. She was not silly enough to imagine that it was in any way romantic; for all she knew he had stuck candy in it or something. "Awww, the loyal Squire is giving his Lady a gift. Happy Valentine's Day." Taking the box, she gave him a kiss on the cheek. As a friend. So people had better not get in a fit over it.
Happily, she opened the box and was pleasantly surprised to see a large Chocolate Frog wrapper. "It's amazing, Louis. Thank you. I will open it properly as soon as I get to my dorms." She was smart enough to know that if on the off chance her frog managed to get away before she could eat it, the people organizing the event probably wouldn't be too happy with her. Best to do it later on even if she really wanted chocolate right now. |
