To Dance or Not To Dance {Private}

[Nicolette]

[Continued from The Winter Dance]

Was the older male speaking to him again. The younger's eyes adjusted and he blinked a few times as he sat up and looked in the direction of the Student Council member. He opened his mouth to shoot back some smart ass comment, but froze as he spotted the man with his shirt unbuttoned and shut his mouth, swallowing hard. He was flawless...

He did his best to control himself and licked his lips a little before he spoke. "Wh-what reason would I really have to go to this dance...?"

[Faye]

"Well...." Sven started, pouring the hot water into his coffee, stirring it briskly so he could drink it down before he continued to get ready for the big event. Once he was finished, he brought the beverage to his lips and sculled back at least half of it. His buttons remained undone, the shirt swaying lightly in the air as he walked over to the younger man, "It's a fun event... Get to meet new people, etc..." He smiled, he would choose to not have gone this year but he had too, he was the Student Council Vice-President. Nicolette would be extremely disappointed and upset if he didn't.

Actually, she was going to be like that anyway. He was late.

Very very late.

[Nicolette]

Matt swallowed hard again when the man approached him; he was glad for not being biologically male or this situation would become awkward real fast... His heart beat quickly in his chest and he did his damn best to keep his breathing even as he forced himself to look away and stare at the television.

"If you haven't been able to guess, I'm not really a social person..."

[Faye]

Taking a another gulp of his coffee, Sven agreed, he had guessed that Matthew wasn't a very social person. But that didn't mean he couldn't go... It was a fun event and Sven actually wanted him to go, so they could like... Go together, not in a relationship way, but to y'know, do something. However, he was sure he would be pulled off to do things with Nicolette.

"Aww... Would you go for me?" He sounded weird, then, a different tone of voice was used. It was like begging with puppy dog eyes but nothing changed about his expression.

[Nicolette]

Matt's cheeks exploded in pink color as he heard his room mate practically beg him to go to the dance. His mouth ran dry and he felt his heart about to explode. How could he resist such a request...?

"F...fine..." he muttered out and shakily rose to his feet. He walked to his bedroom door and paused, looking back at Sven and trying not to let his eyes roam over his perfect body. "But you owe me..."

With that, he escaped into his bedroom and stripped of his clothes, going to his closet to grab a white tank top to wear under a white button up shirt that he tucked into black slacks. Dress shoes covered his feet and a tie was placed around his neck. He grabbed a black jacket (though it wasn't a tuxedo jacket, just an ordinary one) and slipped it on his thin shoulders before he pushed open the door, looking toward his room mate.

"Happy...?"

[Faye]

Sven felt pleased with his breakthrough with Matthew and clapped his hands together a little bit as Matthew rose up to go get something decent on for the dance. Ah this was good~ He would get to spend more time with his roommate and patch up what happened a few days ago, hopefully, he felt really bad for how they ended up after all of that silly drama.

Still... he couldn't help but feel a little curious about what made him so edgy.

"Absolutely~" He chirped, "Now, let's get going, Nicolette's probably wondering where the hell I am... I am soooo late.." He continued, feeling a little anxious now. Hopefully he hadn't missed too much.

"How can I make it up to for forcing you to come, anyway?" Sven asked as he opened it the door after retrieving his cellphone and other essential items for the night,

[Nicolette]

The smaller of the two decided he probably wouldn't need his keys seeing as his room mate would be attending the dance as well. He could always just leave when the older male left. It wouldn't kill him. He simply slipped his cell phone in his pocket and waited for Sven.

The cell phone Matt had only had five numbers in it: Jonatan, Annemarie, Jakob, Leon, and Leonie. The only way one would know that these five people were the instruments behind Radiance was if they saw the single picture in Matt's gallery, which was a picture of the five flashing a peace sign, a picture they had sent to Matt during Christmas time.

"I'm not sure yet... But I'll figure something out."

[Faye]

Sven smiled and waited for the younger male to exited the dormitory with him before he closed the door, fishing his pocket for the keys to lock it up. Once it was securely locked and once Sven had checked to make sure, the Vice-President began to walk down the hall towards the elevator, it would take around five-ten minutes for them to reach the gym, maybe more depending on their pace. It wasn't... that late, surely?

He withdrew his cellphone from his pocket and pressed one of the side buttons to check the time upon entering the elevator with Matthew. He pressed the 'G' button and the elevator doors closed. "Aww crap..." He muttered under his breath, noticing that it was nearly seven thirty, already.

[Nicolette]

Matt shoved his hands in his pockets as he followed the upperclassman. He stood in the corner of the elevator as it went down to the lobby and he followed the male out as they made their trip toward the gymnasium.

It, indeed, took them about ten minutes to get to the gym and Matt didn't like the looks of the area. There were too many people around... Used to be, he would get right out and mingle with every person he could possibly find... But things became different when he became Matt...

Nicolette turned away from her brother when she saw the doors open and breathed a sigh of relief. She placed a hand on Henri's shoulder and leaned forward to kiss his cheek, telling him she would talk to him later in the evening. The boy understood and went to find another place to sit for the time being as Nicolette hurried over to the male of the Student Council.

"I was beginning to worry you wouldn't be here!" She said, her eyes wide with relief.

[Faye]

Sven was relieved to arrive as he pushed the doors open, seeing that not much had started just yet. That was definitely a good sign. He peered back at Matthew who seemed to just tag along behind him, looking completely reluctant about coming along. Something tore at his chest... Why did he make him come? He should of just left him there to be happy by himself... He clearly didn't want to go and was uncomfortable there.

Just as he was about to apologise, Nicolette came up to him, relief laced within her eyes, "Aah, I'm sorry Miss Nicolette, I lost track of the time.." He seemed to lose track of time a lot... He was late to everything.

[Nicolette]

Nicolette smiled a small smile and brought a hand up to brush some blonde bangs away. "Well, at least you are here. Nothing has happened yet, but it is comforting to have another member of the Student Council here. We must keep our eyes out for anything that seems suspicious... I am nervous that the Student Freedom Force has not made a move in the span of the month that has passed..."

Matt looked at the woman before turning away and looking for somewhere he could sit himself where he would be out of the way. He slinked off to an empty table and sunk down in it, taking a look at the people at the dance floor. He felt a bit of pain in his chest... How he missed the days he would happily join them.

[Faye]

Sven was distracted by Nicolette so he had not noticed Matthew's slinking off by himself to sit down at an empty table. He was preoccupied with Nicolette and her suspicions on whether or not the Student Freedom Force was up to no good. It seemed logical that they would save their first move of the year for the Winter Dance. A perfect time, where everyone was around to see it.

"Most likely, don't worry Miss Nicolette, I'll keep a close eye out," He smiled, walking over to the punch bowl. It would be his substitute for coffee tonight. Little did he know that something had been added to the punch...

[Nicolette]

Nicolette smiled and nodded before she went to find her brother again; it wasn't like she had many others to talk to at the dance...

Matt continued to sit at his table and watch the people dance. After a while, he took his phone out to check the time. It was about eight o'clock. They'd been there about twenty minutes and he was already bored... And craving a cigarette.

[Faye]

Since he was feeling quite thirsty, he downed a spiked glass of punch at once and poured himself another one. Stuff like that was meant to be drunk slowly so it the effects didn't take so long to kick in but the moment Sven reopened his eyes, he felt the room spin a little. He just shook it off and grabbed another one. He had poured his fourth one by the time he decided to drink it slowly once his thirst was quenched.

He felt a little weird but it wasn't much, but he'd feel something soon... He peered around the room, looking for Matthew. Ah! There! He was sitting by himself at a table. Sven wandered over to him. "Hey," He said, the smell of punch and a little something else lingered in his breath. He took a seat with Matthew at the table.

[Nicolette]

To: Jonatan, Annemarie, Jakob, Leon, Leonie

Bored out of my fucking mind... I can't believe I let my room mate talk me to going to a school dance. Ughhh... *~Manima~*

Matt flipped his cell phone shut as the said room mate addressed him. He slipped the object into his pocket and turned to face the older man. Something was a little off... However, he couldn't exactly pin what it was.

As the male sat, a scent hit the younger's nose and caused him to wrinkle his nose a little before letting out a small sneeze. He couldn't quite put his finger on the scent...

"Yoh..."

He wanted to leave.
