Tobias watched a Third Year amble off in the direction of a girl. The boy looked, in fact, rather drunk. And Tobias couldn't help but chuckle slightly. Drunk already? And at the beginning of the Dance, no less. How pathetic. "Where's Lily?" he asked himself quietly.

As he walked he spoke, the words conveniently drowned out to all but himself by the conveniently loud music. Unknown to the people around him, Sirius was lowering his voice, attempting to sound different, more mature, than his usual self.
That, his costume and the lack of sarcasm he had decided to employ were bound to trick Sadie, the teen was sure.
His dark eyes were half-closed, protraying the immense concentration that Sirius held. Unfortunately, though, for Sirius - and moreso, the people around him - this rather impaired his vision.
Striding half-blindly across the room, he managed to crush countless pairs of feet, causing a tirade of insultsand scoldings to follow him. Most of these, Sirius ignored, though there was one that caused the boy to laugh: 'If you were Sirius Black, you'd never do a thing like that!'
By the time Sirius had regained his numbed senses and wiped the smile from his face, like chalk from a slate, he found himself only a metre from Sadie.

Sadie glanced around herself and watched as a boy, slightly tipsy, okay.. Drunk ambled over to her. She frowned slightly before breathing in deeply and looking at the band.

For a moment or so, he stood staring at the only girl he had ever cared about - and knew he still cared about.
He studied the way in which her eyes followed the dancing couples, the graceful way in which she held herself... and then he coughed.
Politely, he leant forward and tapped her on the shoulder, smiling invitingly. "Hi there. Care to dance?"
Sirius held out his right hand, a litttle presumptiously, perhaps, ready to clasp Sadie's hand in his. "I love your costume, by the way."

Lily glanced out at the dance floor and all the couples dancing there. She sighed wondering where Tobias was. Her stomach gave an odd jolt as she realised he could already be here but she didn't recognise him. How could she possibly let him know where she was?
Standing up, she moved over to the table groaning with food and drink, she picked up a butterbeer and went back to her table, maybe if she stayed in the same place for long enough he'd find her. She let her slim finger trail around the rim of the bottle's lip as she waited.

Noticing a rather elegant girl, Tobias walked softly and quickly towards her. Unbeknownst to him, it was Lily Evans. Tobias gently tapped her shoulder. "Excuse me. You wouldn't happen to be Miss Evans, maybe?" he asked softly, smiling.

Lily turned slightly, "Yes and who might that be?" She asked smiling, "Is that you Tobias?" She asked titlting her head up at him as she peered into his mask.

Sadie nodded, placing her hand in his. She glance down at her dress before looking at the boy's costume. "Thank you.. Your is very good aswell.."
(( Sorry.. My computer crashed.. ))

Sirius grinned, though promptly tried to control his emotions. "Thanks," he satisfied himself in saying, as he led Sadie to the centre of the room, "Just something I... ummm... picked out, you know?"
Looking anxiously about, Sirius attempted to copy the people around him, moving awkwardly to the music whilst shouting above it. "He's very sorry, you know."

Walking slowly into the room, a girl looked about. She wasn't sure about this. What if she ended up dancing away the night with a slytherin?! Anya bit her lip. Better now than never! And proceded into the crowded room. Her costume was rather elegent. A goldish wedding dress with out straps, and a sparkling gold mask to match. To keep her warm if she went outside the transfigured a velvety gold floorlength coat.
Anya's mixed colored locks were ontop of her head is a twist, ancircled with loose curled hair. She sighed, and looked for Lily. No doubt she would be with Tobias...
((Ack. I sound like a mary sue. But it's the best I could think of. -_-'))

As they had been dancing she had had her head turned ever so slightly, she jerked it back to look at her dance partner. "Sorry.. Who's sorry? About what?"

Anya made her way through the crowd, twards the tables. "Lily...where the bloody hell are you!"
Why did it have to be a masquarade ball? At least she wouldn't have to worry about not being asked to go with someone. Until midnight, noone knew who she was.

Sirius blinked, worried that he had trodden on his partner's foot, or performed some other blunder of that kind, "Umm.... Well.... Sirius Black. He's sorry. I think."

"Well.. I'm sure he is.. But, can we not talk about that? Just dance?" she said with a small smile as a couple of fifth years near them tripped up.

"The one and only," Tobias smiled, nodding softly; golden-hazel eyes gleaming through his mask. "Might I take this dance, perhaps?" Tobias asked, head inclined slightly.
