Hi to everyone reading, I can't thank everyone enough. Hope it's ok :D

The doors into the grand hall swung wide open. It was only the lucky few of the boys who managed to get a date, considering their was only 18 girls at the guild. Boys of all ages looked hungrily and enviously at the boys chaperoning girls into the room.
Every boy wore black tuxedos in the style of true and well dressed assassins. The girls dressed in ball gowns, which glided along the floor, swiftly making little noise, like the rustling of pages being turned. All the boys stared with mouth's hung open.

All were masked, just leaving their eyes ;cheeks; and lips on view. The only recognisable boy was Teatime, people avoided eye contact with him. His eyes raked the crowd for his date. Susan was nowhere to be seen. He felt a weird feeling in his stomach, his heart was in his throat. He felt... betrayed.

Susan stared impatiently into her mirror, she was by far late to the ball, but her hair was being extremely unco-operative. While everyone had counted the end of year ball down to the final minutes, she dread it. Her dress was hand made, Teatime bought it for her. The red satin hung perfectly to her slim frame, it spilled onto the floor comfortably. Everything looked perfect, except her hair. She fumed at the mirror tears scrambling from her eyes unchecked.

Teatime exited the hall nocking over boys in the way. He scanned the whole building searching for her, leaving her room till last. Teatime jumped the four steps of the stairs, in haste he heard the band starting. His stomach was in a knot and his breathe caught in his throat as he rounded the corner.

There before him stood a goddess. Slender in frame, tall in height, the red satin dress hung around her like water moving to every curve and bend, her hair curled around her face; framing her perfect dark eyes. Johnathan was lost for words, gawping like a fish; Susan chuckled at him.

"It's rude to stare, Johanthan." Susan scolded in a playful manner.

"Forgive me my lady." Johnathan extended a hand and bowed. "But I haven't seen anything quite as stunning and beautiful as you, in my whole life." He kissed her pale hand. Susan's face flushed a colour to compete with her dress.

"Here is your mask." He stepped behind her, and shifted her hair; catching the smell of coconut. He smiled as the scent woke every bit of his being. His hand tying the black lace on the back of her head caused shivers to travel down her spine. His hot breath on the back of her neck caused electric shocks to prickle on her skin. He coughed and moved back feeling a similar sensation.

"How does it look?" She asked worriedly, biting her lip in aggitation. Teatime's eyes flashed across her face in admiration, as the mask made her features more gorgeous. It was black so it made her face more pale, her lips more red and her eyes stand out. He nodded lost for words.

"Lets go before it's too late." Susan said breaking the obvious tension between them both.

The music had an up tempo beat, meaning those with partners were being whirled around the dance floor, with magnificent grace and elegance. As promised, Teatime danced for them both. Controlling Susan's every move, to avoid the obvious threat of a trampled Susan on the floor, if she fell. The night passed swiftly, with very few stumbles on Susan's part. Teatime, Susan noted, looked dazzling. His golden hair bounced as he swept the dance floor. The lights made his skin glow a golden colour. His smile warmed Susan. She couldn't think of anything more magnificent, than this right now.

The dance floor began to slowly empty, leaving few couples who slow danced to the music. All the weary boys sat at the side, watching and talking.

Teatime hummed along to the gentle music in Susan's ear. This made them both relaxed and content.
"I've had a marvellous evening with you Susan Sto Helit." He grinned down at her and kissed her for head affectionately.

"As have I, Johnathan. Even though I dread this very day. I have loved it." She nuzzled her head into the crook of his neck. His stomach burst into a thousand pieces, and his heart raced faster than ever. To the people sat on the edges, none of them had seen a more odder couple before.

Susan pulled her head back to look at Johnathan, her lips pulled back into dazzling smile. Johnathan returned it. Susan tip toed to become at a similar height to Johnathan's lips, she breathed heavy, unsure whether to make the first move. Teatime forgot to breath, he forgot everything. He had never kissed anyone before, and his mind ran round screaming 'Kiss her you fool'.

He leaned in too, there mouths collided, and it was the most awkwardest kiss known to the Disc. There lips mashed together like they were trying to consume each other. This was until they both came back to their senses, the kiss was wonderful. There lips fitted together with perfection, it was gentle and caring. It made their whole body contort with happiness. Pulses of electric coursed through their very veins. It was a kiss to remember. It lasted what seemed a life time, but also no where near enough time. Teatimes hands rested on the small of her back, and Susan's thin fingers laced into his hair bring their kiss more closer and making it a lot more passionate.

Their hearts race and so did their senses. Teatimes groin started to feel tingly and weird. He had never felt anything like this before. He pulled away before things got too far. He looked at her, and she looked dazed and confused. Both their hearts raced in melody.
"Wow." They breathed out at the same time. She kissed him on the cheek and fled from the hall to her dormitory. Leaving a bewildered Teatime, alone in the dance hall, behind his freaky eyes, was a storm of thoughts, battling for his attention. His head hurt.

He rushed to the shower, and he turned it on cold, just what he needed, too think and to cool off.

Susan slowly got undressed, taking time. Remember how it all felt, what led up to it. She let out a content sigh.

"Why did I run?" She asked allowed.

"Because you love him..." Her mind answered her back
