"Shall we?" I motioned to Darla.

(Dar)
I smile and take his hand, "Sure." Then allow him to lead me to the dance floor.

(Nami)
He kissed me.
Dear lord! He actually is kissing me...
Oh no! He's actually kissing me!!! But he... he...
He's a really good kisser.
I mean a really, REALLY good kisser...
But I may be biased, I do REALLY, REALLY like him.
I like him a lot...
And he still doesn't like me...
I shouldn't be doing this... Forcing myself upon him... Damn Darla...
Shut up and enjoy the kiss!
That's the best thing I thought yet, so I listened to it.

"Shut up and enjoy the kiss!"
I had no doubt that the voice, close enough to be whispering in my ear, was from Namine's mind; it was pretty obvious that she hadn't said anything out loud.
Still, I took the advice to heart. Not that I could have not done so if I tried. Part of me wondered idly if Nami had ever kissed anyone before; it was likely, possibly even with... no. I couldn't think about him right now.
It was my first kiss; I decided not to tell her. It was pretty damn self-indulgent, really - but I didn't want to burden her with knowing how much it really meant to me. I knew it would break her heart, knowing that she hadn't meant it and knowing how much I had. So I decided not to tell.
Everything's gotta end sometime; eventually, I pulled away, out of breath for more reasons than just one.
I should've said something, but I couldn't, just... watched her. I simply didn't know what I could say?

When we parted I didn't really want to... But we did. I didn't want the mindless bliss to end. But it did. And now I stand, flushing and taking in deep breaths of air. My mind on hyper mode still, but at the same time completely slowing down this moment.
"Neku... I..." What can I do... I can't tell him how I really feel... He's just doing this to keep me around. "I... I'm sorry."

Jack entered the masquerade. It really wouldn't be one without the true masked man would it? He was in his human form, wearing a tux instead of his usual hoodie and jeans, he wore the mask that he normally wore as a demon over his face, white with an intricate design, showcasing his red and grey eyes. His rather long and spiked hair was pulled back into a pony tail save for a few bangs still in his face. He entered the room with an almost unparalleled grace, seeming to slide rather than walk. Three other Blades were at the party in disguise, but they weren't here to cause trouble, only to gather information.

Then came the next masked man. Kyoshiro wore his Templar mask but ha simply not activated it, leaving himself in control instead of Sir Givven. He wore an outfit similar to his normal uniform with the only differences being longer tails on it and a lack of epaulettes. Humming along to the music as he entered he found himself standing against a pillar on the outskirts of the dance floor, admiring those brave enough to step onto it. Kyoshiro was a musician at heart, and all musicians could dance in some way or another, but dancing still wasn't his strong suit.

Silently Aqua walks into the building. She sees a few others are here already. She's wearing blue and gray dress with feathers as apart of her skirt. Her mask is on of a bird, beak in included. In her hair is beads and some larger feathers. She just made this dress yesterday, so she hopes it except able for such a gathering. She walks in and shyly walks to a table wear she silently leans against the wall near it.

The red-haired Halfer had also arrived - notably, while his friend was, um, busy. He wore black, a leather vest over a long-sleeved shirt and pants, with boots that stopped mid-calf, albeit in a different style than the ones he'd provided Neku. A lng cape flowed from his shoulders. His vest had red detailing, and his cloak had an intricate red tracery in metallic thread; his mask was likewise black, a demon mask with red detailing and large, black horns that spiralled down around his ears. (( This, except with the added red detailing.)) He walked over to Neku and Nami when they were done. "Heyyyy man," he said, far too innocently, smiling a grin that said butter wouldn't melt in his mouth. "Nice job, catching the lady under the mistletoe and all." His grin only widened at Neku's look of embarrassment, which quickly turned into a glare softened by the furious blush he was wearing. "Sh-shut up!" he protested weakly. |

Out of the corner of my eye I noticed Jack enter wearing his trademark mask. "This going to be an interesting night." I thought to myself as I led Darla in a slow waltz. "Never was a good dancer but I picked up a few things along the way."

"How about I lead then?" I smirk and I take his hand and move it my shoulder, my hand going to his waist and I spin us. "because I can dance both parts very well."

(Ang)
He sighs to himself as he walks into the Ball. His get up is stereotypical and his eyes are yellow tonight. He spots Darla first and rolls his eyes. Then he sees Namine and a growl can be heard coming from him. But he keeps himself in control as he walks farther in.

(Nami)
Flushing I smile, "Le-Lea, right?" I look him over and smile. "You're looking good tonight." Of course Neku still looks better... Stop that! You're meant to be guilty over forcing him to kiss you!

"Alright, I'll let you take it from here." For once I wanted things to go normal. And if Jack interrupts my night with Dar, regardless of our agreement there will be problems.

Giggling I lead him in the swaying movements and then in a turn, "I'm gonna spin ya outwards... Okay? Do me afterwards?"

Smiling to myself I spin him out and pull him back, catching him flawlessly, "You're turn."

Smiling to herself, Aqua shifts where she stands. Darla and Riku seem to be getting along quite fine. And even when that dang Demon shows up, she can't help, but stay calm and bored.
"... I hate dances..."
