 Valerie >_>
Jesús was indubitably out of his element. He'd been to formal events, yes, but never at this scale. It left him feeling a bit inadequate, to say the least. But, for the sake of putting on a good show, he left those doubts behind, and made the executive decision to actually attend the event. He didn't actually think that people would be doing the whole "bring a date" thing. Jesús, not entirely a novice to the art of dating (but not exactly an expert, either,) had fully intended to simply go and sort of mingle with his peers. He also did not expect to find himself seeking out a very particular person, to ask said person if they might want to attend the event, and possibly, perhaps, accompany him to said event.
It was all so very new and strange and Jesús did not like feeling out of his element; especially when he technically shouldn't feel any sort of awkwardness. Except he did feel it. A lot, at that.
Clearing his throat, Jesús took a glance around the ballroom before settling his eyes on Valerie. There were plenty of places they could've gone, but Jesús, in the spirit of getting out of his comfort zone, figured the best place to be, at that moment, was the ballroom. Something about the space felt strangely mystical; he reminded himself, again, that he wouldn't get caught up in frivolous moments just because they were in that sort of setting.
