Closed Trying This Out

[Niklaus Eliot Easterling]

Nick honestly was getting confused about what was going on this year, since when did he start to go out with people? And since when he got so much girl attention? However, Brooke invited him to the Ball and Nick agreed, she was pretty and smart, and he couldn't say no. He actually didn't know what she was going to wear, so he just hoped that they will match and wore red suit. With how many fashion obsessed cousins he had, it would be crime not to have several suits, so he had a huge dilemma with choosing the right one. But he was still there and waiting or searching for Brooke, hoping that she will actually come over.

Brooke had stood in front of the mirror in her dorm long after she was ready, turning this way and that critically, running her fingers through her hair till it sat just right. It would undoubtedly get mussed just by sheer virtue of her walking up the stairs to the hall but that wasn't the point. She wasn't leaving until she was properly put together. Especially since she finally had a proper date this year.

If anyone asked, Brooke would have said asking Niklaus had been a whim, but in truth Brooke had considered it carefully before finally asking him. He was handsome, quiet, and clearly intelligent. Brooke could do a lot worse. "You look smart," she said with an approving smile as she joined Niklaus in the hall, glad he'd made the effort. Some kids at this school could barely handle putting on a uniform, let alone wearing something nice to a school event. "If it turns out you can dance too, this'll be a perfect night," she added with a small laugh, glancing around the hall to see if she could spot any of their classmates, assessing who was who and wearing what.

Niklaus gave a light smile to Brooke when she joined him, letting his eyes fastly run over her to see how she looked. Well, white was surely her color. "Thank you, you look wonderful yourself," he gave her a light smile and a nod. "Then lucky for you, I have several cousins who are dancers, so I totally can dance," Nick lightly chuckled before offering his arm to let her lock their arms together before moving to the dance floor. "Uhm, what plans do you have for Christmas?" To be honest, he preffered listening that talking, so he hoped that Brooke will have a lot to say.

Brooke couldn’t resist a little curtsy to Niklaus when he returned the compliment. He might be pretty quiet, but at least he said the right then when it counted. “Ah right, your cousins. You’re so different from them,” Brooke said, gladly taking Niklaus’ offered arm as they stepped out onto the dancefloor. She took the moment to look around, trying to see if she could see said cousins or even any of her friends, frowning when she saw Ivy with Sawyer again. Brooke had definitely landed the superior Ravenclaw in her mind. “Something quiet at home, I’m sure. It’s pretty tame in my family. What about you? Big family Yuletime with all those cousins?” She asked him playfully, moving so she and Niklaus could begin dancing. She was sure they looked like a perfect couple and Brooke was glad to find she was rather enjoying the sensation.
