(OOC: So, if Amy and Nathalie reply first, and then when we roleplay meeting up with Jack and Tristan, the boys can post.... once they all leave in their couples, we will start new topics. - i can do that :p )

Amy walked out of the bathroom and did a twirl in front of Nathalie. "How do i look?" She asked, her tone critical as she surveyed the final appearance in the long mirror. They were staying in a hotel in Paris, the usual one for Amy. It was rather expensive, but with the allowance her parents gave her, she didn't notice the money going. Her and Nathalie had adjoining rooms next to each other so they could stay up and chat for as long as they wanted. Amy didn't know who her cousin was bringing with him, but she had a few ideas. She gazed at a certain spot on her neck that a few weeks back had sported a love bite. Her delicate fingers rested on the spot for a moment, thinking about the boy who had brought it about and what they had done together.

Looking in the mirror again, she grabbed a brush and started to sort out her hair. Brushing it enough times, she managed to get it to curl around her neck, the ends teasing her throat. She hadn't done much makeup, knowing that it wouldn't make any difference to her veela appearance. Looking down at her dress, she laughed silently to herself. It was low cut around the neckline and wasn't long at the bottom. She was wearing simple tights, and an assortment of bracelets on her wrist. A simple silver band was hanging around her neck, with a small heart on it. Her cousin Jack had given it to her for her 16th birthday and she wore it every day.
 
Nathalie had had to smile when she saw Amelia, she's really beautiful it seems, and the dress that she was wearing, it fits her and it had actually made her glow more, she really was amazing. "You look great Amy.." She said softly, sitting down on Amy's bed while she was watching her fixed herself in front of the mirror. Amelia had had helped her choose a dress to wear for the said occasion, and then, she had settled down for this black knee length dress that she had just found on her closet, carefully tucked under her casual clothes, really, it had been a long time since she had worn that dress, after all, her father didn't really like it for her.

Running a delicate hand on her golden locks, she stood up as well, looking at her own reflection in the mirror, she looked fine though, though she wasn't quite sure if she would fit in with Amelia and her cousin, hopefully, she will, turning to look at Amelia once more, she smiled once again while waiting for the said girl to finish.

 
Amy smiled at her friend as she came out. The dress was really nice and suited Nathalie's character well. Sophisticated, but gradually coming out of the traditional shell. It was the right length for Nathalie, what with it being perfectly acceptable and it would also fit in well with the pub setting. Amy knew that her dress would probably fit in better than Nathalie's but because they were going with 2 people anyway, it didn't matter. She also ran a hand through her hair after Nathalie did and decided that she liked the look. Smiling again at Nathalie she picked up her small handbag that contained her belongings and her wand. Walking towards the door, she smiled again. "Ready?" She asked, her tone excited at taking her new friend out into the world to see it through the eyes of a 16 year old like it should be seen.

As they left the hotel, she smiled at the receptionist, a young muggle boy who seemed slightly awed by the sight of the two half-veelas dressed up to go out for the night. Smirking at his reaction, Amy stepped through the door. It was quite cold outside and Amy wrapped her small black coat around her shoulders tighter. It didn't cover up a lot of her, but was perched on the edge of her shoulders, keeping them warm. After walking for about 3 minutes, she came to a stop outside a dark restaurant. It wasn't the place that they would be going to, but was the meeting area where Amy had agreed to meet Jack and the unknown guest.

(OOC: Ok, so one more post from Nathalie and then Jack will post and then it can go from there :p )
 
Nathalie nodded as Amelia asked whether she was ready for the trip, of course she was indeed prepared already, she just hoped that nothing bad would happen then, she just hoped that everything would be perfectly fine. She was excited yet nervous at the same time, it would be the first for her after all, the first time that she had actually tried to get out of her shell and see the world in the way that it was supposed to be seen. Before they headed out, Nathalie hd to stop by her room, grab her red trench coat, and make sure that her room was properly locked. She cannot afford to have someone enter her room without her knowing of course.

Nathalie had had to move closer to Amelia as they proceeded to go out, what with the stares being thrown at their way, she cannot help but to feel a little uncomfortable, of course, she had been used to such reactions before, but being stared at while wearing the dress that she was wearing had just been too much for her, she's not used with it. Reaching the place that was supposed to be their meeting area, Nathalie began to hug herself, trying as much as she could to stay warm, they would surely have a long night before them, and she was starting to get really nervous.
 
Amy turned to smile at Nathalie encouragingly, only now remembering that this was her friends first time doing something like this. Having done similar things to this before, Amy seemed to forget the newness of it all that her friend was experiencing. Seeing her hug herself, Amy smiled again. "Don't worry, they should be here soon." She said, hoping that her words would be as true as they sounded. Across the street, some drunken men called across to them and Amy held her wand in her hand. Seeing this, they walked away, still jeering. Thinking that they were just drunken idiots who were there without a wand, Amy followed their gaze down the street and saw her cousin Jack, walking down with another guy. Unable to make out who it was in the light, she smiled warmly at her cousin, and stepped forward a few paces to greet them. Giving her cousin a quick hug, she turned her attention to the other guy. Gasping with pleasure, she beamed at him, her face glowing in the growing darkness.
 
Jack waited outside their hotel, waiting for Tristan. Tapping his foot on the ground, he waited to see where the boy was. Feeling worried for a moment that they were slightly late, Jack smiled at him when he finally arrived. Walking quickly, he smiled as he saw his cousin and another girl waiting. Paying his attention to Amy first, he gave her a hug and quickly surveyed her attire. Sighing at her unmodest look, he turned away to greet the other girl. "Hello. You must be Nathalie right?" He asked, smiling at her. "Jack." He said with another handsome smile. Paying no attention to Tristan and Amy, he started walking towards the pub, talking to Nathalie as he did so. "You're in Amy's year right? She told me about you, but well, you are part veela right, or you must be one of the prettiest girls i have ever met." He said with another smile again, telling the truth.
 
When Jack had invited Tristan to join him and a few other at the pub, Tristan hadn't know what to expect. So he had gone with a sort of smart-casual look tonight, in attempt to fit in with whatever the rest had chosen to wear. He was looking forward to going tonight, knowing that Amy would be there re-assured him that he was going to have a good time, no matter what Jack thought of the two of them. Tristan would try not to hold back once the drinks started flowing, he didn't want to appear two face to Amy and Jack, and whoever Amy's friend was.

Tristan walked along the street with Jack and smiled as he spotted the two girls in the distance. Hearing Jack speaking to the other girl, Tristan figured that it was only polite to introduce himself to her, before he was distracted by Amy. "It's good to meet you Nathalie." He told her with a sweet smile on his face, before watching Jack wander off with Nathalie, leaving Tristan with Amy. He warmed-up to Amy almost immediately. Placing his hand just where her dress finished at her legs Tristan smiled at Amy. "I hope Jack warned you and Nathalie that you'd be spending some more time with me tonight..." Tristan said with a small laugh as he waited for Amy to lead into the pub.
 
Amy beamed at Tristan. She hadn't been expecting him and it made it even better that Tristan and Jack were friends! But how awkward it would be. Wondering how she was going to pull it off, she was pleased that her friend Nathalie was there to back her up and distract Jack. He wouldn't be ungentlemanly in-front of a girl, and she knew this. Feeling a sense of power for the first time over her cousin, she nodded to herself as both the new arrivals introduced themselves to Nathalie. Hoping that she would relax and be happy with Jack, Amy turned her attention to Tristan. Feeling his hand on her leg where her dress ended, she shivered quietly and smiled. Kissing him quickly on his lips, she pulled back. "What does Jack know?" She asked, wanting to know how much Tristan had told him. From what she could tell, it was enough to make Jack happy to leave them alone, but it wasn't too much and Tristan was still alive which was always a good thing. Smiling still, she slipped her hand in his and pulled him in the direction of the pub, about 10 metres away from Nathalie and Jack. She hoped that Tristan wouldn't push it too far in front of Jack, but another part of her felt like she didn't care. It was her evening as well, and if it got to the extreme, there was always a hotel room around the corner....
 
Nathalie frowned when she saw some drunken men calling out to them, she didn't like what they were doing at all, but luckily though, Amy had the presence of mind to bring out her wand, which as funny as it looked, made the drunkards back up, smiling to herself, she didn't noticed that there were already two men approaching them, not until they were already in front of them and talking.

Turning to see who those men was, Nathalie had already figured that they were the ones that they were waiting for. "Yes I am, a pleasure meeting you, you're Amy's cousin, aren't you?" She said, curtsying before she even realized that such an act was not something that would be usually done especially on a situation where they were in. She then give the other guy a warm smile, wondering who he was for he didn't even bother to state his name, but by the looks of it, Amelia already knew him. Following Jack into the pub, Nathalie cannot help but to give occasional glances to Amy, she was nervous, and she didn't know what to do, but hopefully, all of those would change any time now. "Thanks, and yes, I am a part-veela, just like you and Amy." She replied, blushing a little out of embarrassment, but the lights inside the pub must have concealed the pink flush in her face. That blush was instantly replaced by an innocent smile as she surveyed the place around them, it was way different than what she had imagined. "Oh, and Amy told me lots of things about you too by the way." She added, not really looking at Jack but rather, at those people who were drinking and dancing with each other.
 
Tristan smiled as Amy kissed him. "Jack knows enough...but I'm still in one piece remember...there's no need to worry." Tristan said, giggling through his sentences before he felt himself getting pulled into the pub by Amy. He didn't want to anger Jack by being over the top in the pub, but an over-protective cousin wasn't going to stop him from enjoying himself. "So can I get you a drink?" He asked Amy as he playfully squeezed her hands.

Sorry posts are slow and kind of rubbish. Busy week this week. They will be back to normal size next week. :)
 
(OOC: Don't worry :p )

Amy smiled and sat down at a table for 4. There were people dancing in the pub, spinning each other around. She nodded and smiled at Tristan. "Yes please. Its muggle so ill have whatever." She said, shrugging and leaving the choice of drink down to Tristan. Wondering whether he would want her drunk or just get her a coke, she waited to see what she would have. Jack left with him and she turned to Nathalie smiling. "So, what do you think of Jack so far? And are you enjoying yourself?" She asked, using a vague hand gesture to wave it around the pub and show what she was asking.
 
OOCOut of Character:
I wasn't sure who was meant to reply next so I thought I'd reply now then see what happens. :p :)


Tristan headed over to the bar and ordered himself a pint of beer and Amy a glass of wine. He assumed that Jack would buy his and Nathalie's drinks. Tristan wasn't really bothered what happened tonight. Whether they stuck with Jack and Nathalie or whether him and Amy went off by themselves, he didn't really mind. Just being with Amy was enough to make Tristan happy. He wasn't planning on getting drunk, he knew he could have fun with Amy without any alcohol being involved, but if alcohol was where the evening was heading, then so be it. Tristan arrived back at the table and took a seat closely next to Amy as he placed their drinks on the table. He took a sip of his beer before placing it back down, it was then that his hand slipped underneath the table and cheekily onto Amy's leg, just above her knee. He wasn't sure how she'd react to the movement with Jack being around and all, but as long as they remained appropriate, Tristan was sure that Jack would be okay with it. "So Nathalie how'd you know Amy?" He asked as his hand slowly moved up and down Amy's leg. He was so mischievous. But despite the cheekiness happening out of eye-shot of Jack and Nathalie, in Tristan's eyes, anyone who was Amy's friend had the right to be his friend now.
 
(OOC: It doesn't matter i don't think :p as long as the plot continues and if it needs to split into 2 sections soon, then thats fine :) )

Amy smiled as Tristan returned with their drinks and she took it, smiling. It was wine and Amy was good with wine. She preferred it to other alcoholic drinks because her body had slowly become more and more tolerant to the drink as she went along with it. Glad that it wouldn't have such a strong effect and therefore she wouldn't lose it in front of Jack, she sipped it gently. Letting the slightly bitter taste hang in her mouth for a second, she swallowed quietly and heard Tristan making polite conversation with Nathalie. That was nice. He didn't have to and she appreciated it, as he seemed to be helping her settle in to the new environment. Letting Nathalie answer the question for herself, she jumped slightly as she felt Tristan's warm hands on the lower half of her thigh. For the jump she got raised eyebrows from Jack but she just smiled sarcastically in his direction. Relaxing more as his hand moved up and down her leg, she realised what a great night this was actually going to turn out to be.
 
Tristan was waiting for Nathalie's reply and couldn't help but laugh a little as he felt Amy jump at his touch. He watched Jack's eyebrows raise at Amy, but he smiled at the suspicious action before quickly glancing at Amy. Tristan kept slyly moving his chair closer to Amy's until the two chairs were touching. He didn't care how obvious it was that they were sat so close; close attention was how their relationship had worked right from the very beginning, and if Jack didn't like it, he would be forced to get used to it. Tristan wouldn't want it any other way. Yeah, Jack was a good-mate to him and was protective over Amy, but there was protective, and then there was just plain over-the-top. Tristan picked up his drink with his spare hand and took a rather large sip of it before swallowing it sharply. His eyes glanced from Nathalie, to Jack, before resting on Amy's face, he slowly gazed down from Amy's face down to her hips, before slowly staring back up, until his sight reached the side of her face again. He was quite obviously checking her out, but Tristan couldn't resist, it was the kind of guy he was, and not even an over-protective cousin was going to change that.
 
Amy turned to face Tristan with an eyebrow raised. Before she could take anything in, their chairs were touching. But it seemed Jack hadn't noticed and if he had, hopefully he wouldn't care. She kept her eyebrows raised as he 'checked her out' and wondered whether she had passed or not. The music was building to the height of the song, and she wondered how Nathalie and Jack were doing on the other side of the table. There didn't seem to be much conversation, so she hoped that everything was ok. Probably tonight the main reason why she didn't want to go too far with Tristan in public was because she didn't want to embarrass her friend and make her uncomfortable. Nathalie still wasn't aware of the things that Amy had done with guys, and Nathalie's innocence was Amy's responsibility tonight. If her and Tristan did something that Nathalie saw, then she might feel uncomfortable or wary of Jack. And that wouldn't work, Amy wanted them to be friends. After all, they were quite similar and would get on well. Her and Tristan on the other hand though, now that was a different situation entirely. Hearing the song finish now, she heard another one start up, one she liked and was used to. It was a slow moving song, one to dance to properly. So, standing up, she held out her hand to Tristan. "Can we dance? I love this song!" She said, turning her attention to Jack and Nathalie quickly. Normally the guy would ask her to dance, but tonight she wanted to give Nathalie and Jack some space, so she took the opportunity to separate the two couples. And also, it would give her a chance to be with Tristan. Alone.
 
Nathalie was too fixated with her surroundings that she wasn't even able to notice that the two guys had actually left to fetch them a drink, well, not until she had heard Amelia asked about how she was doing, "I'm enjoying I guess... just wasn't used to such place, but I'm fine." She said, assuring her friend that she was not feeling awkward or anything, Amelia was trying to help her, and of course, she couldn't just appear like she wasn't enjoying her self, right?

When the guys came back, and Tristan, it was his name it seemed, asked her how she had met Amelia, "Oh, Amy? How did we met, it was on that one rainy day I think..." She answered as politely as she could, smiling warmly at the said guy. She didn't know what his relationship was with Amy, but whatever it was, as long as Amelia's comfortable with it, then it's fine. Amelia's friends should hopefully be her friends too it seemed.
 
Tristan was relieved to hear Nathalie reply, he hadn't put his foot in it. Phewf!!! "That one rainy day huh? Sounds Good..." Tristan joked as he chuckled a little. An awkward silence filled the air for a while as Amy appeared to be watching Jack and Nathalie. Tristan wondered whether she was holding back around her cousin. That was fair enough, but Tristan wanted to have at least a bit of fun. As Amy asked him to dance, Tristan released a breath that he didn't realize he'd been holding. "Of course we can dance..." He told her as he felt his chest drop and his smile widen as he took Amy's hand and lead her to the dance-floor.

He lead her to a spot that was amongst the crowds, where they would hopefully be out of the full-view of Jack and Nathalie. He wrapped his arms around Amy's waist as he began to dance slowly to the music, it was more of a sway than a dance. Tristan knew he had to hold back slightly tonight because of Jack being so over-protective, but this was a slow dance, Tristan intended to at least kiss and cuddle. Once they had gotten past that stage, Tristan would just simply let Amy take the evening where she wished to..........even if that was back to her hotel-room.....

 
Amy smiled at Nathalie's answer. Now though, she would leave the rest to Jack to talk. He seemed quiet and she wondered what was going through his head. But, ignoring it now, she smiled as Tristan accepted her offer. Wandering through the crowds, she put her arms behind his neck as they swayed. They were out of view of Jack and Nathalie and so they could do as they wished, well at least considering they were in public. But, Amy had a hotel room around the corner, and she wondered whether Tristan did or not. It would be nice to go back to his this time perhaps. After all, he had seen her way of living, it was her turn now. Leaning upwards slightly she kissed him on his lips, but not as passionately as he probably knew she was capable of. She didn't want it to go too far in public, but she also wanted him to make more of the first move. Smiling, she swayed, wondering what to say and leaving him to start the conversation.
 
Tristan was glad when Amy kissed him, he was glad to finally be alone with her, well kind of alone anyway. He kissed her back, knowing she probably wasn't going to put too much into it until they were fully by themselves. He wondered what Jack really thought of the pair of them, he had asked before, but the pair of lads had been pretty drunk on that evening, and Tristan debated whether Jack had been of sound-mind having consumed so much alcohol on that night. Forgetting about this, Tristan snapped out of these thoughts and turned his attention back to Amy. He allowed his lips to find her neck, he explored and spotted the mark that he had left there last time that the pair of them had been together. Laughing slightly, Tristan caught Amy's eye and moved one hand up to touch the mark with his fingers. "That was a good night wasn't it?" He asked Amy, but almost spoke it in a way that he already knew what her answer would be. He was more telling her than asking her.
 
Nathalie turned to look at Jack, now, they were pretty much alone and it would be rather awkward if they would just sit there in silence. Amelia wanted them to be friends it seemed, and she should at least make an effort to actually talk to him now. "Are you enjoying Jack?" She asked politely as she had noticed how silent he had been since they had entered the said pub, he had not spoken a thing since then and so she wondered whether he was actually enjoying where he was now. Hopefully though, he'll answer her, but if not, then it would be fine too, she wouldn't want to be a bother if he wanted to have some time to think for himself.
 
Amy laughed softly. The tinkling of the noise attracted some unwanted attention, but once they had seen that she was in the arms of another boy, they turned back to their partners. Amy wasn't fazed by this, it had happened more than once before at a pub, but she wondered how Tristan would react. Shivering slightly as he kissed her neck, she moved her head so that their lips were touching again. Brushing them past each other, she smiled again before answering. "Yeh. Amazing." She said with another smile, her tone light and bubbly as she spoke the truth. Wondering whether there would be another episode tonight, she tried to focus her mind off Nathalie and Jack and back onto Tristan. This didn't take long, what with being in his arms and him kissing her, and before 30 seconds had passed, she had forgotten about the pair still at the table.


(OOC: Sorry for the very late reply.... ignore the comments made before they arrive at the pub - its for my sake so i can catch my bearings with him :p )

Jack smiled at the girl who had his attention. Nodding as she talked for a little, he watched her as they walked. She was truly very pretty but in a modest way. Unlike his cousin who had gone daring tonight, this girl brought out an unseen elegance and beauty that was only enhanced by the dress she was wearing. "Really? And what sort of things would that be?" He asked, a smile playing over his lips as he wondered what things Amy could have told Nathalie about him.

They arrived at the pub and Jack joined Tristan to get a drink for Nathalie. "What can i get you?" He asked as he walked up to the bar. Jack caught Amy and Nathalie momentarily talking and saw a few glances sent his way from Amy. Realising that they were talking about him, he made a mental note to ask Nathalie later. Or Amy. But, the way Amy and Tristan had started off, Jack has a sinking feeling that he wouldn't get a large opportunity to talk to his cousin - the reason that he was here. But now, Nathalie was his guest so he must talk to her a little, at least she must be better than sitting with a couple who knew more about each other than Jack cared to know.

Getting him and Nathalie both the desired drinks, he wandered back and sat down next to her. As he did this, he noticed Amy jump a little and raised his care-free eyebrows her way, ignoring the current situation but making sure he would keep an eye on the pair of them. His attention was then drawn back to Amy and Tristan when he caught Tristan 'checking Amy out'. Sighing inwardly and shaking his head, he turned away so he wouldn't be given a reason to lose a friend tonight. They got up to dance and Jack breathed a sigh of relief. Turning his attention back to Nathalie now, he smiled and nodded. "Yes, its a nice area round here. Sorry to seem distracted. But i fear that Amy and Tristan are getting on a little too well." He said, indicating into the dancing crowd where the pair had just disappeared to. But at least now he could focus on Nathalie and not worry about Tristan and Amy. "So, tell me about yourself. Amy hasn't said much, and im eager to learn about how you too get on so well." He said, another handsome smile playing on the corners of his lips as he watched the girl in front of him. He didn't know much about her, and she seemed nice, the sort of girl that would put up with Amy but keep her under control. That is, if she knew what Amy did in her spare time.
 
Tristan, although distracted by Amy, was keeping a close eye on Nathalie and Jack's whereabouts. He was pretty sure they were quite happy together at the table, but if they came over to dance, Tristan would have to watch his every move. Wondering whether he should play risky tonight or not, a cheeky smile crossed Tristan's cheeks. Were him and Amy going to end up back in a hotel-room again, or would Amy allow him to play around a little longer, before their actions became inappropriate for public viewing. Just the kiss had caught a few people's eyes, but Tristan didn't care, as long as himself and Amy were having some fun, that was all that mattered. Tristan smiled at Amy's reply before kissing her once again, but this time on the lips again as his hand that was on her neck slid back down to her waist. The slow-dance soon came to an end, and a more up-beat song came on, a few heads had turned at his and Amy's actions, but Tristan refused to break the kiss as his hand slipped down further and found the end of her dress. He played with it as he broke the kiss and held Amy close as he walked towards the bar, he needed somewhere to lean. He leant against the bar, then pulled Amy in once more for a slightly more passionate kiss.

OOCOut of Character:
Do you think it would be quite funny if Jack and Nathalie caught Amy and Tristan kissing? :p
 
(OOC: Go for it :p but a little later, once they have had the opportunity to chat.... ok??? :) )

Amy smiled at Tristan and kissed him back. Conscious of his hand moving slowly downwards, she raised her eyebrows at him. But tonight was her night as much as anyone else's and she deserved to have some fun. What did it matter that Jack was there? No, this was Amy's night and she would enjoy herself, because she didn't know the next time that she would see Tristan. She twirled around as the music demanded and then moved in closer once she had finished the move. They were pressed up against one another and nothing else was on her mind apart from Tristan. Her senses returned as they moved to the bar and she kissed him back. But she hadn't finished dancing yet, after all, it was early enough and they had all night.... and the next day...... and if Jack could entertain Nathalie for long enough, the next night as well.....
 
OOCOut of Character:
Yeah Okay. :)


Tristan laughed slightly as Amy twirled. The boy had to admit, he wasn't much of a dancer himself, but if that's what Amy wanted to do, then he was perfectly used to embarrassing himself. Being embarrassed had never really bothered Tristan all that much, it was just a thing of life as far as he was concerned. Tristan kissed Amy once more as his body began to move to the beat of the music. As the dance-floor grew slightly more crowded, Tristan saw this as the perfect opportunity to be a bit cheeky, and re-live a past-time, if you will. Releasing Amy from his grip for a second or so, he un-did the top two buttons of his shirt before his hands cupped either side of her face. "I'm sorry.....it's just.....it was getting a little.....hot....." He said with a mischievous chuckle before allowing his lips to find Amy's once again.
 
Amy smiled at Tristan as he undid his top two buttons. She raised her eyebrows at him and carried on moving to the music. Looking down obviously she sighed at the fact that there was nothing for her to do. "I know what you mean." She said and laughed a little. Shrugging, she carried on dancing, knowing that her dress was far more revealing that if Tristan took of his whole shirt. But she didn't want that to happen.... yet. Well, not at least in company... The dance separated them for a second, as Amy spun away again. But, as they came back, she looped one arm around his neck and rested her other hand on his slightly revealed chest. She winked at him and undid another button before raising her eyebrows again. "Is that better?" She asked as she let his lips find hers again. They kissed and she drew away again, smiling.
