Gaston had no idea what he was doing here! He had every intention of politely declining his invitation, but the romantic in him just couldn't stay away from a wedding. He'd been in the back row throughout the ceremony, his head bowed to hide his tears from the prying eyes of the students and other staff. It never failed... weddings always reduced him to an emotional wreck, even when the bride and groom just happened to be homocidal maniacs.

He wasn't sure what exactly had drawn him to the party- not the food, certainly. He had enough candy back in his office to feed an army. Maybe it was the curiosity about a poltergeist reception or maybe it was the desire to not be alone... either way, by the time he arrived, the celebration was in full swing. He took a deep breath, his panicked cerulean eyes searching for any signs of pranks as he entered the room. He still hadn't forgiven Peeves and Miffy for their dangerous pranks and, frankly, wouldn't put it past them to do it again. His hand tightened around his wand, poised to react at a moment's notice. This time if they were going to endanger his life - or Merlin forbid!- the lives of his students, he'd be ready for them!

Something about being alone and in fear had put the Frenchman in an unusually sullen mood, and he doubted he'd be very good company right now. He spotted some of his colleagues (Laurel, Jordan, Kay, and Rosalyn) and greeted them with a polite nod and a sad smile before going to stand against the wall, where he wouldn't spoil anyone's good time. He watched Peeves and Miffy and couldn't help but roll his eyes. A part of him was genuinely happy for the couple, but seeing them together only reminded him of how alone he really was. Even the poltergeists had found love, so why couldn't he?
