When Luke had first asked her to the gala she almost thought it was a joke. They’d just barely started speaking again after her attack. Winter was ecstatic that they were friends again, but him asking to go to the gala together she’d not believed it. Her mother wouldn’t be happy and Jasper... she couldn’t imagine how he’d react to this. The main reason they weren’t allowed to be friends after his adoption was Jasper. The man was against any kind of supernatural creatures. Being around each other was dangerous like this. But Winter wanted to be his friend. She didn’t want to hide from people. Lukas was her best friend.
“What do you think your dad’s going to say?” she whispered, staying close to his side. She knew how upset he was, she’d not expected to see Noel or Judith but for him she couldn’t imagine. He wasn’t allowed to do anything, not here, not to her. But she was more worried for him. It wasn’t her who had to see him later.
Glancing around she spotted the back of Jasper’s head and turned the other way, “Do you dance! I’ve never actually asked you that.” What she could do was try to distract him a little. Things would come to a head eventually but Winter was good at this, making people happy. “If not I can teach you, I think I’m pretty good if I do say so myself.” @lulelaw
