Shouldn't be too difficult so long as he did not say too much, but that would be a problem in and of itself.

People were meant to talk to each other while out on a date. While it would be perfectly in line with his behavior to spend the evening quietly observing the others present, he was not sure it would allow his date to have a very good time.

"We can walk around out here for a little longer. I don't mind." Crowds made him .....anxious and anxious was no way to be on a date. "Unless you would like to head in. I heard someone just now mentioning a ballroom. I don't know if you might be into that sort of thing." The crisp air out here on the deck was nice, but crowds aside, he would not complain when they did make their way into warmer temperature later.

Unfortunately, he was a boy of few words, even fewer when he hardly knew the person, so he did not have much to add after that point. Here come the nerves.
It was her companion’s turn to blush it seemed and Cassie had to stop herself from chuckling in amusement in fear it would make him feel worse. Not to mention make things more awkward between them which would ruin the evening before it really began. So she would keep her amusement to herself in favor of not alienating Aiden…be a proper host to the visiting student or students.

“Exploring out here it is then,” the Ravenclaw chose for now given the Pukwudgie expressed he didn’t mind. “For now,” she added, resuming her movements so they could continue to walk. Or perhaps stroll. As for the ballroom… “Maybe later. It’s nice night to just rush indoors.” Clear and warm despite the wintery atmosphere, no doubt magicked for their enjoyment this evening just like in class. And surely it would be a bit noisier and crowded within anyway. Here they had the occasional other partygoers and the stars to hang around with.

Cass moved over to the railing at one point, lightly resting her hands upon the top rung as she starred out. “So…you’ve met my home during the winter…what’s yours like?” she asked curiously, trying to be polite and socialize with her companion. They hadn’t spoken all that much upon meeting and the asking so maybe an icebreaker was in order. She kept her gaze away to allow the privacy to answer how he liked without her staring at him. "If you don't mind me asking of course."
