"Crap! There went my hand again! Anyone got any thread?"

"You really need to work on keeping yourself together better Frankie." Clawdeen said snickering as she finished reattaching Frankie's hand.

"I've tried! These limbs have a mind of their own!" Frankie said sticking her tongue out at Clawdeen who merely laughed slightly, the other Monster High students laughing as well.

"Yeah yeah squirt. Now come on. I think it's about time we wrapped this show up." Clawdeen said laughing as she patted Frankie's head, earning a playful snap at the fingers from the green skinned ghoul.

"May I have this dance my angel?" Jinafire asked bowing slightly to Frankie before dancing away with the girl when she laughed and nodded, much to the MH students ire.

"I swear I'm going to gut that dragon girl if she doesn't try to reign in her instincts soon." Clawd growled flexing his claws as he did so.

"She may be Frankie's mate but if she doesn't back off a bit soon I swear I'm going to rip her limb from limb." Clawdeen growled as well as she glared at Jinafire with narrowed eyes while many reporters and audience members wilted at this. The most beautiful girl any of them had ever seen…and she had already found her mate. That just plain sucked for them.

"I wasn't aware Frankie found her mate…I'll make sure to have a little…talk with Ms. Long." Bloodgood said her eyes nearly lighting aflame as she glared at the dragoness teen, causing the other MH students to smirk slightly. This was gonna be soooooo much fun…for them at least. Not for Jina…that was for sure.

"This'll be fun." Clawdeen said with a smirk as Rochelle and Garrot began dancing as well, Cleo and Deuce following after them at Cleo's insistence. A minute after Draculaura and Clawd followed their lead while the rest of the group just stood there.

"Eh. Dance." Abbey said grabbing Heath and leading him into a clumsy dance.

"You might as well girls." Bloodgood said stepping backstage while the other girls shrugged and Toralai grabbed Skelita's hands, leading the surprised skeleton into a dance that was a bit wilder than the others.

"Wanna dance Ghoulia?" Lagoona asked earning a shrug and causing Lagoona to lead her into a slow zombie dance.

"Sorry bout surprising you like that but I usually don't get along with the others from MH so I figured it'd be safer dancing with you." Toralai said smiling slightly at Skelita who gave her a small smile back, feeling her figurative heart fluttering in her ribcage.

"It's alright senorita. I don't mind." Skelita said smiling shyly at the orange furred cat who held her slightly tighter as they danced. Skelita felt like she was in heaven with the werecat's arms around her and the slit pupil eyes staring into her own.

"I hope not…" Toralai said with a small smirk that didn't contain it's usual mischief or malice, only playfulness.

"You two make a cute couple." Frankie softly whispered to the two after Jinafire whispered something in her ear as they danced passed the two. Toralai and Skelita's cheeks flamed red, not that anyone noticed. Skelita's bones couldn't turn red which kept her blush from showing, while Toralai's fur covered her own cherry red blush.

"Shut up Frankie." Toralai said huffing slightly as she resolutely stared everywhere but at Frankie or Skelita. Frankie merely giggled as Jinafire smiled at Toralai knowingly before leading Frankie away.

"Stupid green skinned, too naïve for their own good, sister like ghoul." Toralai muttered under her breath, although it had no real heat behind it as she glared playfully after Frankie and Jinafire. Skelita heard the werecat's mutterings and couldn't help but to giggle in amusement.

"Looks like Wolf girl found someone to dance with." Toralai said normally after a moment as she looked at Clawdeen, who was now dancing with a purple haired werecat that had apparently been in the crowd.

"You say you do not get along with them…yet you act like close friends?" Skelita asked in obvious question causing Toralai to sigh slightly as she danced with the skeletal girl, making sure to keep her voice down enough so that the other MH students dancing near her couldn't hear her.

"Back before and during Frankie's first semester at MH I was a bit jealous of a lot of things regarding that group there, except for Abbey since she only transferred to MH a few months after Frankie did. Me and my two younger sisters, Meowlody and Purrspherone, often times tried to upstage and humiliate them which lead to a lot of bad blood between us. We've all mellowed out a bit and act a bit friendlier to each other now…but I refuse to count them as my friends until I know they accept my apology for my early behavior." Toralai softly explained to the skeleton who nodded slightly at this and smiled at Toralai.

"Perhaps…they have already forgiven you…and are merely waiting for you to ask to be their friend before it becomes…how you say…'official' friendship? Sounds plausible no?" Skelita asked softly causing Toralai to smile at her ever so slightly.

"Never thought about it like that…but maybe you are right…I'll ask them…late. Right now…you're my number one priority." Toralai said smiling down at the slightly shorter teen who smiled brightly at her for that. The song ended before more could be said, causing the guys, Jinafire, and Clawdeen to give a slight bow as they kissed the back of their partners hands. Toralai quirked an eyebrow before smirking as she did the same with Skelita, who was quite glad that her blush couldn't show otherwise she was sure that she'd be fire engine red by now.

"I hope you enjoyed this dance as much as I did, my fair skeleton." Toralai said kissing the back of Skelita's bony hand although her eyes never left Skelita's own.

Toralai's next softly spoken words caused Skelita's eyes to widen while Toralai smirked slightly.

"I couldn't have asked for a better dance partner and mate."
