Fland Ingen had had a crush in the taller Scotsman for a while now. She just wasn't sure if she should tell him or not. Some of their other classmates could tell she had feelings for him since she had been caught staring on occasion.
"You should ask him on a date," Zia said. She's... a Romanian Durmstrang student. They're all at Beauxbatons for the Triwizard Tournament. Immediate blush from the Scottish Ravenclaw. "I don't... I don't know if that's a good idea," she said. "What if he says no?" "He's coming," Zia said. Fland Ingen covered her face with an open book. "You're Fland Ingen, right?" Coinneach asked. Blue eyes glance up at him from over her book. She nodded faintly. "I was wondering if you'd go to the Yule Ball with me." This earned a deep blush from Fland Ingen. Didn't seem to answer his question. "She'd love to," Zia said, placing her hands on Fland Ingen's shoulders. "Great," Coinneach said with a smile. "I'll see you later, then." When he walked away, Fland Ingen looked at Zia to see the other giving her a look.
"Which dress should I wear?" Fland Ingen asked. "The blue single strap with the hearts? Or the ombre purple?" "Blue," her fellow Ravenclaw said. "I'm sure he would love it as well." A small smile crossed Fland Ingen's face and she went to change into the dress.
Coinneach waited with the other two Triwizard champions (Orbissa from Beauxbatons and Zia from Durmstrang). The two of them are with their dates. Where was Fland Ingen? Motion caught his eye. When he looked, he paused and just stared. There stood Fland Ingen. Her usually straight black hair is now wavy and she's wearing a light blue dress that has a strap over her right shoulder only. There's also dark blue hearts all over it and the skirt reaches the floor. She walked up to Coinneach and looked up at him.
"You, uh," Coinneach said. "You look great." She blushed a bit and played with her hair. "Thanks." He held his arm out to her. She gladly took hold and held tightly to his arm. Soon one of the professors showed up. Looks to be one Professor Esposito, the one Italian teacher a lot of the female students fawned over. "The way we will enter is the professors will go in first, then you six. Not long after you will be asked to lead the first dance." The six students nod. After a bit, the professors started processing in either one by one or two by two. Professor Esposito was the final one, then the champions followed him in with their partners. Some students were in awe of the height difference between Fland Ingen and Coinneach.
The first dance came and went. At some point thereafter, the two escaped the great hall and found themselves in the courtyard. They wanted to get away from everyone else. What better way than to come out here?
"Sure is pretty out," Fland Ingen said as she looked up at the sky. She didn't seem to notice Coinneach watching her. "Yet you're the prettiest thing here." Blue eyes widen as she looked at him to see a soft smile on his face. He walked over to her and said, "It's true." She indicated he come down to her level. Once he did, she got hold of his tie and pulled him in for a kiss. As surprised as he was, he did return the kiss. After it was broken, Fland Ingen hugged Coinneach and rested her head on him.
"We should do that again sometime."
