He led Lise toward the floor. The prince had moved to a dark corner and was leaning against the wall, looking out over the sea of faces.

Puck danced very well. He probably had loads of experience.

Lise...did not. But she did well enough. Well, she didn't trip and fall.

She just stays by Ash.

Puck gave a soft chuckle. "Okaaaay," he murmured as they spun around the room, "I seem to remember a certain someone swearing that she couldnt dance at all. Obviously I mustve been with her twin sister, because I was expecting you to step on my toes all night. Been taking lessons, Princess?"

Ash was standing the corner with his hands in his pockets. It was too dark to see the emotion on his face, but his gaze never left the dancers.

She just stands there quietly.

She rolled her eyes. " Of course not. I suppose im just being extra careful. " As she said that she proceeded to step on his feet, and she laughed.

Then Puck pulled her into a twirl, his way of getting her back.

Ash and Isiea weren't alone anymore. Three girls, one of them the skinny blonde who had been melded to a different boy a few minutes ago, had trapped him and were very obviously flirting. Smiling coyly, they oozed close, flipping their hair and giving him sultry looks from beneath their lashes.

She glowers at them.

A light blush tinted her cheeks.

Well, Ash would probably just ignore them, or tell them to go away.SIKE! Ash was smiling at the girls, achingly handsome and charming. He was flirting with them.

The song came to an end and Puck drew back, smirking a little. Ash was still there in the corner, chuckling at something one of the girls had said.
