Closed Note Passing

[Lorelai Gates]

Lorelai had decided that as Enochs friend she needed to drag him to the Yule Ball and get him to dance. She'd dressed up, but not dressed up, going for cute and casual over the really fancy looks most everyone else seemed to have chosen. She swayed to the music near the door, humming along and enjoying the soft swirling of her skirts. She'd left Enoch a note telling him to come, to meet her here, and she was sure he would. He was prickly, but she was absolutely positive he was just lonely and needing someone to keep him company. She kept herself occupied as she waited for him to arrive, just enjoying the music and the feel of her skirts against her legs.

 

[Enoch Goldewyn]

Enoch had been staring at the note for the past however long it had been since he'd got it. He hadn't been intending to go to the dance, and certainly he wasn't sure why Lorelai was so keen to go with him, or spend time with him, but he wasn't going to let her down. He wasn't heading home for the break, there was no sense it, his brothers probably wouldn't even notice. Enoch didn't want her to think he was ignoring her. he could go and try again to press that she should leave him alone. It didn't matter that he did put on a suit, and maybe took a bit of time to style his hair before going to the hall. He spotted her and approached. "You need other friends," he told her, bluntly.

Lorelai lit up when she spotted Enoch. "You look amazing," She told him in way of greeting, laughing and moving over to try and slip her hand into the crook of his arm. "And don't be silly. You're my friend, that makes me happy." She reassured him. "Let's go dance."
