((Haha, alright. So if you didn't read my post earlier, Ivy is sitting in the living room with Jeremy and Moran.))

Melinda shifted in her chair wondering who her partner was going to be. she was so excited for the ball. she had always loved dancing and thought this was a great opportunity to meet new people and come out of her shell more. she glanced at each person in the room wondering their naes but knowing they wouldnt be able to tell her what they were.

((I know! Jasey just wanted to wear a hat ^_^))

Jasey noticed her room mate had walked out of the room rue looked at the door way a little weird, "ok then." she said and then walked out of the room by herself. She headed down the stairs seeing all the people already in the lying room. She cntinued on in, walking on into the small group of people. She stayed quiet and looked around. Wondering who she was to be set up with.

[ I am going to go ahead and start, if that's alright. ]

After I had stopped laughing, I came to the realization that another person had come into the living room. I brushed some hair out of my face, and smiled and the girl and elbowed my new companion who had been starring at a nearby wall, or so I thought. " Hello Lovey ", staed in my thick British accent, so clearly derive from Bathe. " I'm Moran and this is .... um .... ", I left a paused for my new friend to enter his firstname that I had not yet learned.

I had be examing the room when a girl walked in, she seemed to be the sporty type of youg lady, a tomboy as Americans put it. " Jeremy .... " I stated softly as I was distracted by something abnormal I the back of the room. I was usualy the one to get lost in thought, so I am not quite sure where the conversation went from there.

(ummmm...i thought there were no names allowed?)

Melinda listened as the other people in the room talked.

Ivy| Partnered with Jeremy |Age 18

I raised my eyebrows at the two boys, thinking about there accent. I've never been one to fall of a British accent, but that might be because I've never known anyone with one. "Sup," I said to the two of them. "I'm Ivy." I couldn't help but notice how Jeremy kept getting distracted, and it intrigued me a little. Also, Moran caught my attention when he said "lovely". I know it's something they say where he's from, but I couldn't help but wonder if he meant it literally.
I watched as more people walked into the room, most of them looking older than me, but not by too much. It looked like most people were here, so I started wondering why we've been asked to come here. Finally a grown woman, maybe in her 40's walking into the room. "Hello everyone," she said to us. "Welcome. I hope you have all found a room and made some friends." Her smile was kind, and her eyes soft. "I am Jackie and I throw these parties every year. As you hopefully know, later tonight will be the first Masquerade Ball- Or as I like to call it- The Formal Dance. You are expected to wear your masks, and nice attire." She started walking around the room, and started at the end with the girl who had red/brown hair. "I am giving you a paper with a location on it," Jackie said. "Don't read it until the clock strikes eight," I looked at the clock. It's almost seven. "You shall go to this location in or out of the house, and find your partner there. After you have semi-met each other, you may walk to the dance hall. Remember not to share your name, or what room you are staying in. The point of the mask is to keep your identity hidden, because what fun would it be if you knew who everyone is?" She handed me my paper, and I was getting extremely anxious to open it.
"I would love to meet you all," Jackie continued, "but I'm afraid I don't have time- I must set up the party soon. You have two choices now: One, you can mingle and get to know each other to make it easier to find out who your partner is. If you insist, you may share names with each other, but remember not to tell your name at the party. Or two, you can go get ready with your roommates, and keep tonight as exciting as it has been planned to be. Well, I suppose you could also explore if you know you'll be all ready in time." She smiled at everyone, waved a little and said, "Enjoy your stay." And with that, she walked off.

((Please look at the front page, under Relationships, to see your location C: Also, no names is just when they have the masks on. Thank you for being concerned, abbiekathy.))

((Sorry that was so long. I tried to split it into paragraphs, but I didn't know where to split them....))

Krypt, whom hadn't gotten a response from his roommate went down the stairs as the meeting was going on. He had often his paper with where he was supposed to go, and he put it away in his poker. He decided to stay downstairs and maybe mingle with the others. For now he was going o stay quiet. He was a little bit shy right now.

Jasey took the paper from the woman with a smile. She looked down at the paper and was so excited and anxious to find out who/where she was going to be with and where she was going to have to go later. She wanted to meet this person!

A beautiful nightmare,
Either way I don't wanna wake up from you.

I studied everyone in the room, trying to figure out who I would get along with. I don't think I make a best friend here, but I won't have any enemies either, which is good. I looked down at the paper in my hands, and slipped it into my boot to stop me from reading. There was an awkward silence, and they always send chills down my spine. I stood up and said, "Well, nice to meet you all, but we have all summer to sit around like this. I'm going upstairs to get ready for the one thing that started this entire program. See you all there." And with that, I started walking towards the stairs. I made sure to sway my hips a tiny bit more than natural, because I knew they'd all be watching me.

Melinda accepted the card with a warm smile. she sat in her chair frozen, staring at the card, so excited and thrilled and acared of what might be the contents of it. she quickly slid it into her back pocket with her phone and stood up. she said in a quiet voice, "i'll see you guys at the ball." she was talking to no one impaticular and then she turned and walked towards the stairs following the girl. her auburn hair fell flat on her back swaying as she walked. she walked up the stairs not to fast but not overly slow. Once she reached the hallway she found her room and entered it closing the door quietly behind her.
