Beatrice blinked a few times as she met eyes with the boy in front of her. His brown eyes sparkled teasingly and he looked like he was biting back a laugh. She started putting a scoop of mashed potatoes, some broccoli and gravy on her plate, listening as he started to talk. She filled her cup with tea, bringing it to her lips, not knowing what was about to come.

“Hi. Sorry. Saw you staring at me. Am I that precious darlin’, hmm? I thought I would come on over and introduce myself to the pretty girl blushing at the sight of me!” she kind of snorted into her tea at his words, thinking about what she wanted to say earlier. “Word of advice, maybe take one of them boring - but cool I guess - Muggle photos! You can stare at me all day!” He was smirking and winked at her before taking something of her plate. She put down her tea, clenching her jaw. Beatrice cleared her throat, looking up and into the boys eyes.

»Don't flatter yourself, I thought you were someone else. Although I was sure you came over because I am just that mesmerizing.« she said, a rude tone in her voice and smirking at her own words. She looked him up and down once again, slowly observing him with a incredulous glare. He was wearing royal blue suit pants, a white button up shirt, a green tie and a waistcoat in the same royal blue with golden buttons. It was obvious that he was raised in a family like Beatrice's. Usually she herself would have worn something less casual but today she just couldn't bring herself to wear a dress or something elegant.

»And keep your hands out of my food Mister Royal Blue suit.« She took a bite of her mashed potatoes with gravy after her sentence, pushing the stray of hair - that had fallen out earlier - behind her ear. She didn't know why but she felt a little anxious if someone was to look beneath the table, they would see her gripping her left knee, her fingernails piercing the skin underneath her jeans. »Are you going to say something or have I taken your breath away?« she asked, speaking clearly, her voice still sounding a little rude but you could hear the soft undertone if you listened close enough. She didn't let his gaze go, staring into his eyes, a fierce glare sparkling in her eyes.

She was sure she had seen this boy before, perhaps in the common room? He was sitting at the Slytherin table so he must be in her house right? She should have also most likely seen him sometime in a lesson.

»Don't flatter yourself, I thought you were someone else. Although I was sure you came over because I am just that mesmerizing.« she said, a rude tone in her voice and smirking at her own words. She looked him up and down once again, slowly observing him with a incredulous glare.

“Well, you’re not wrong!” He said, causing Beatrice to slightly raise her eyebrows in surprise. She watched him, noticing that he looked a tiny bit flustered after the look she gave him. Most likely because he was wearing a suit and everyone else looked rather casual.

»Well thanks,« she smiled a small witty smile before continuing to talk, »And keep your hands out of my food Mister Royal Blue suit.« Beatrice said and took a bite of her food. She watches as the boy opposite to her started to laugh and took a quick glance around. He was looking for something, but for who?

“Mister Royal Blue Suit?” The boy asked, a amused look splattering across his features. “That’s not my name!” he told her still grinning and staring into Beatrice's eyes. She stared back, observing him. He looked like he was trying to figure something out but couldn't quite think of an answer.

»Are you going to say something or have I taken your breath away?« Beatrice asked in amusement, her eyes sparkling in a prompting way. He rolled his eyes and Beatrice felt like he was slowly looking less and less like Edward. His hair was also purple and she had seen Edward that day, he didn't have purple hair a few hours ago.

“Please. I never freeze!” he announced in confidence before continuing to talk, “If anything I would assume you too taken by me to think right!” He sweeped a hand through his styled hair as. Beatrice looked at him in disbelief. “Come on then. What’s your name dalin, and was I mistaken for? Lucky lad!” she almost choked on her tea as she heard him calling her darling. That guy had one hell of a confidence, not even knowing that Beatrice wasn't someone that would hold back if he insulted her in any way. Not that she thought those were his intentions but he should be warned.

»Well, I mean you're not too bad looking but I'm not interested, sorry.« she said, a little cockiness swinging in her voice. »And my name's Beatrice. Beatrice Alaska Dupont if you must know my full name.« she wasn't entirely sure why she had just told him her full name when she didn't even know his, she usually never told anyone her whole name. »Do you know Edward Edwards?« she glanced over to the Hufflepuff table and back at the guy, realizing there was an important detail about him missing that she had just told him about herself. »Wait a minute, you haven't told me your name yet! Although I could also just continue calling you Mister Royal Blue Suit. Would be fitting, don't you think?« her voice was still calm and a little cold. She trailed off, actually trying to find Edward at the Hufflepuff table, however, no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't see him in the sea of yellow. »Your full name.« she added, wondering if someone from his family had been at her families Christmas Ball before or if her parents were friends with someone from his family.

She trailed of, her thoughts wandering to the Dupont Ball again. She immediately felt annoyed about it, not paying attention to anything around her as she mindlessly put a spoonful of food into her mouth. She chewed with her mouth closed, barely making any sound. She was probably staring at someone but Beatrice herself would have never noticed. Only the person being stared at would or people that notice her staring. They'd probably look at her with a weird expression. She saw a movement in the corner of her eye and someone saying something. Perhaps it was just someone around her, but it snapped her out of her thoughts and right back to the boy in front of her.

»Oh, uh, sorry, did you say anything?« Beatrice turned her gaze to him, pulling her eyebrows together and now listening closely. »By the way, I think I've seen you somewhere before, maybe in the Common Room or classes? You seem so familiar.« she said that more to herself than the boy but those were still valid question. She let her gaze flow over the crowds, awaiting an answer.

"Beatrice Alaska, huh. Lovely name. Dupont. That sounds French," the boy who's name Beatrice still didn't know looked like he was trying to figure out if she was french. Oddly enough she had never thought about the fact that her Father is Scottish but has a french last name. She had to figure that out later, technically she did have a french background because of her mother being french.

»Do you know Edward Edwards?« Beatrice looked over at the Hufflepuff table, not answering what the boy in front of her actually wanted to know. She tried to find her friend in the sea of yellow but she couldn't quite make him out, where was he? The boy nodded and Beatrice noticed how he took another thing of her plate. She didn't care this time. Beatrice looked back into his eyes, awaiting an answer that she almost immediately got.

"Oh course! Charming. Badger. Gap in his front two teeth? Me and him are mates!" Beatrice raised her eyebrows at his words. It was hard to believe that these two had met. She looked him up and down as he continued to talk. “He has a tendency for running into me, last time he did it, he poured hardback books over me nut!” Now that she thought about it some more, it actually made more and more sense. They both had an... uh.... unique..? sense of style but this boy seemed to have a rather different personality. Although that wasn't a point that you could question a friendship with. Beatrice and Edward were also pretty different. “Ought to get him back for that really,” she heard him say and looked back from the bagers table that she apparently had been staring at. Suddenly something that she had completely forgotten, came back to her mind and her gaze snapped back to Mister Royal Blue Suit.

»Wait a minute, you haven't told me your name yet! Although I could also just continue calling you Mister Royal Blue Suit. Would be fitting, don't you think?« Beatrice furrowed her eyebrows, wondering what his actual name was.

“Took you long enough, darling! Lucian is my name!" she furrowed her eyebrows at his name. Lucian? Hadn't she heard that from somewhere? »Your full name.« she added, wondering if someone from his family had been at her families Christmas Ball before or if her parents were friends with someone from his family. Or had she heard that name in class? Or maybe from someone else? Had Edward mentioned him? Several questions were wandering through her head as she now stared at Lucian.

"Uh, Jem’apple Lucian Michael Bauer Mornstern, if you must know my full, full name!” He said, trying to pronounce Je m'apple but he failed a little, making Beatrice laugh and raise her eyebrows. Michael Bauer didn't necessarily sound familiar but the name Mornstern made something click in her brain. She knew this name but where had she heard it? She felt as if her head was smoking from all the thoughts running through her head. Beatrice snapped right back into reality as Lucian asked his next question.

"So, how do you know Edwards, Dupont?" he called her by her last name as he leaned closer and folded his hands under his chin. She raised her eyebrows as Lucian looked into her eyes and a witty smirk plastered itself across her lips. She stared at him without blinking but he looked away a few times. Even tho of the looking away, he seemed pretty sure of himself.

»Well, I've met him on the Hogwarts express. Met a couple times after that. How do you know him?« she asked, sitting up a little straighter and finally laying her arms up on the table, folded over each other. Her features finally relaxed a little and she stopped burying her nails in her kneecaps. There must have been awful marks under her jeans now but that would be a problem for later.

Beatrice watched as Lucian laughed. It was a nice laugh, she even felt the left corner of her mouth go up a little as she watched him and listened as Lucian started to talk.

"Funny story really. I met him on the platform, guess what..." Oh Merlin, don't say that he ran into you. Beatrice thought as Lucian leaned in and started to whisper in her ear. She held her breath, wondering if he would smell the Vanilla Shampoo she had used earlier. "The bugger had ran into me before making it rain books!" Lucian told her before sitting back down. She smirked a little. Edward apparently had a habit of running into People. "Has he ever ran into you? I should get him a cane for Christmas, hopefully he would see where he is going! What do you think, Dupont?" Lucian grinned and Beatrice could see a glimpse of sharp teeth before he closed his mouth again. Interesting.

»Surprisingly Eddie has never run into me. We did climb on a bookshelf together tho and some books fell during that.« Beatrice said with a smile, thinking back to how her legs had been shaking with the books beneath her. »I do like the cane Idea, maybe one of those canes that elderly men walk around with? It would certainly fit some of his outfits.« she said. Beatrice loved Edwards outfits, he always wore something nice.

"What are your plans for the holidays anyway? I am going to my Grandfather's for some of the holiday and then hopefully Ree and I will be exploring the muggle world!" Beatrice frowned, her face expression going over into a curious yet kind of shocked expression. Does...does he know Irina? Why does Beatrice not know this. Of all people she probably spend most of the time at Hogwarts with Irina. Now that she thought about it, Beatrice had seen Lucian with her and heard someone call her Ree. Which is probably the only reason she thought of Irina when she heard the nickname. She almost forgot to answer his question.

»That sounds Fun! Well, the thing with Irina. I don't know about your Grandfather 'cause I don't know him. I hope you have fun with both.» She said with a smile before getting to what he had asked. »And uh, uhm, well, my Family is throwing this Ball. The Dupont Ball. They do it every year around Christmas. I think it's the 25th this year. Other than this I don't really have any plans.« Beatrice took a sip of her tea, remembering an important detail. »Oh! Edward is coming tho! Well, at least I hope he is. I still have to convince my parents. I'm honestly not sure how that will work tho because.. uh.. you know.. my Family's all about pure blood.« she got quieter in the end, looking away from Lucian and biting her lip while pictures of how this could go ran through her head.

"Ahem," Lucian cleared his throat, making Beatrice snap out of her thoughts and back to the boy in front of her. "Yeah. Holidays. Anything fun? I will no doubt have to attend or be a host at a party when at Grandads!" Ah, another Party. Beatrice smiled, Lucian had clearly not listened to her. What was he thinking about that he didn't get anything of the stuff she said?

»Uhm, I already said this, but my Family is throwing this Ball they throw every year and Edward might be coming. Other than that I don't really have anything planned. Although my Parents might drag me to some other Party while my Siblings get to stay at home. They only have to attend our Ball for now 'cause they're still pretty young.« she leaned back before remembering that there wasn't anything she could rest her back on. She quickly leaned back forward again so she wouldn't make a fool of herself and fall.
