it was on brand for isla dubois to be fashionably late.
though, she had a good reason this time. scheduling anything had been a nightmare lately with her multiple projects, her birthday, and now the prom. most of her days had been a busy blur of work. and, unfortunately, the dance had fallen on the day of her twelve-hour rehearsal day. but she was not going to miss it, not when her and bas had planned to attend. so, the blonde had quickly ran home and got ready while planning on meeting him at the front doors.
every inch of her seemed to glow under the low street lights as she hurried up the stairs of aurora bay high. there was a part of her that was thankful she went to a private school during her time here, so this wouldn't be any sort of high school flashback. well, hopefully. grey eyes soon locked onto the familiar visage, the sweet smile that was soon becoming associated with him creeping up on her blushed lips.
her bejeweled hand soon slipped itself under his arm, taking her place by his side. "told you I would make it." she reassured with a bit of a teasing undertone. her tone soon shifted, however, into one of pure genuineness.
"you look wonderful."
Prom 2025 - Isla Dubois

where: coral cottage;; will and lemie's wedding who: @basaaragon
asking bas to the wedding was somewhat of an impulsive decision on her part. isla never had any problems attending events alone (mostly because she rarely left them alone), but she had figured it would only be more fun with him there beside her. the only worry she had was will prying into their 'status', a topic she knew was imminent yet one she planned on avoiding as much as she could. she enjoyed living in the ambiguity of their relationship; the allure of just letting things happen as they may more tempting than her previous dip into a whirlwind of a romance. the situation felt both comfortable and uncomplicated, yet also just correct. the blue, glittery sheen of her dress glowed in the evening sun as she took a sip of her champagne. "am I going to be able to coax you out onto the dance floor tonight?" she asked with that same sweet smile that seemed to only appear in his presence.
who: closed starter for @basaaragon where: seascape; New Years Ball when: an hour before midnight
tonight was a dream for isla: a reason to pull out one of her most jaw-dropping dresses and adorn herself with diamonds and glitter, plenty of halfway-decent champagne, and hundreds of eyes admiring her followed by fawning compliments and a few flirty exchanges. she loved being a spectacle, something to be adored, almost like art. and the crowd continued to provide as she made her way through the night.
the conversation she found herself in was surface-level at best, though she didn't mind. it gave her a moment to look over the room and finally take in the crowd for herself rather than be approached by them. a few familiar faces were noted and placed in the back of her mind for later. though, when her eyes landed on one figure, a wave of delighted surprise washed over her. isla excused herself from the group continuing on in their inconsequential exchanging of words and sauntered over to him, impeccably manicured nails pushing back curls that themselves were peppered with glitter.
a light tap on bas' shoulder announced her arrival, a dubois' branded smirk resting on her perfectly plumped lips. "I'm starting to think you lied to me saying parties weren't your scene. especially considering that's the only place I ever run into you." her enticing voice was completely wrapped in jest.
"will you save me a dance? need to see how well my lessons helped."
