Call him just an another oblivious guy, but it was the truth. He could see the ship in the distance, and it looked awesome. "Pretty cool of the Board of Governors to do this for us."

He was in awe as they boarded the ship. He'd really never done anything this nice before. They stopped at the top of the grand staircase, and he suddenly got nervous. This was a real date. He turned to face her when she complimented his suit. "Thanks," he said. "You look beautiful, Skylar." All of her. Not just the dress. Was this really the same girl he'd called Miss Sarcastic just last school year? They sounded so grown-up toward one another now!

He started to lead her down the stairs when she asked for reassurance that he wouldn't let her fall. "Hmm. I'll have to think about that one," he joked. He followed that up with a grin. "Of course I'm not going to let you fall. Come on. I'll lead you down." He looped his arm around hers and started the descent down, wondering only a second later if they really would make it down the stairs without crashing.

Was the apologizing too much? Skylar just felt like she'd been taking so long, but it wasn't exactly an easy feat to walk in heels without falling. If there was one thing she learned it was that heels required delicate care as they appeared. "I just ... i thought I was taking too long," she bit her lip, nervously. This was all such a new experience, the dance, the boyfriend, but he didn't seem bothered, or he was just being oblivious. "It really was awfully kind. Nice break from the monotony of classes and the usual hogsmeade visits."

Not to mention, a first real date. Technically they had the date in muggle London over the summer, but that was as friends. This was their first real date as a couple. Their debut. When he faced her and complimented her, she felt her cheeks growing warm. It was so genuine and honest and was this real life? "Thank you," wow. Never in a million years did she think this could be happening to her. Well, the dress and shoes maybe, but with an American who asked her out while battling a dementor because he thought of her?

Following his lead down the stairs, she grinned when he joked with her. And that was the Brent she recalled. "Watch it, or I might just find my heel in your shoe," she teased back, as she gazed ahead down at the ballroom floor. Oh look, there was Vivian and Felicity, who looked pretty as ever. With her hand not looped with Brent's, she lifted it slightly from the railing and gave a little finger wave back. Hmm, they were talking to Madelyn too? Suddenly dizzy, she kind of hoped Brent didn't see her, but then the blond seemed to have found a male suitor to dance with, for wish Sky was rather grateful for. Although, despite it, she also thought if he wanted to have a dance with his ex, it wouldn't have been so bad. He was with her now, now Madelyn and a dance was just as harmless as the hug. And his patronus was for her, anyway ~~as she discovered~~, so she would be okay. Changing one's patronus was something that wouldn't happen from one dance.

"Well, if I do fall, you'll at least go first so you can you catch me?" Maybe a possibility. Carrying her was also a possibility, but he didn't seem bothered by the fact that they were missing half the dance due to taking their time walking. Truth be told, she wasn't either. It was actually nice to enjoy the quiet night air before arriving to the ship.
