Twilight stood outside Madame Puddifoot's awaiting the company of two males. She looked dfferent tonight. Her hair curled and her eyes not as dark with eyeshdaow but more colourful. Temps just seemed happier with a glow about her. She was tapping her foot and looking at her wach every so often. "Sorry 'Lissa. They should be here soon."
Next to Twilight stood a small girl. She had waist length blonde hair, which was straightened to perfection. There seemed to be an innocent glow around her. Melissa was a sixth year Ravenclaw but one of the very quiet and shy people many others easily overlooked. Temps knew her from the help she had been given on her Ancient Runes work. 'Come on Rydell, don't flake out on me....' she thought quietly.

Rydell walked down the street in Hogsmeade in company of one of the few male friends he had. He hated to admit it but he thought that Twilight might actually like him, he was a Seventh Year Ravenclaw with long Brown hair almost down to his shoulders, Piercing green eyes and a personality that shouted modest. "Come on Ronin." he said to the boy as he walked. "We should of been there five minutes ago." he said to his friend.
Ronin laughed slightly, "I didn't realize that you were on a strict time limit." he said to Rydell walking beside him, "Besides, it is always a good thing to come looking your best." he said pulling at an imaginary thread on his clothes. "Knock it off." Rydell said to him as they neared the shop. Rydell sighed as he saw Twilight with a another girl.

Once again she looked at her watch but this time as she looked up two boys were making their way down the street. Twilight waved at them and turned to Melissa, "I knew he's show up." melissa looked slightly pale, "Oh, 'Lissa calm down you'll love him. He is so so sweet, honestly." Melissa nodded, "Ok Temps, I'm trusting you." Twilight gave her a quick hug knowing that this night would easily be a success. Melissa had confessed to having a crush on Rydell anyways so her job was semi done.
"Hey guys." Twilight greeted them. Melissa looked up shyly and smiled, "Hi." she managed to get out. SHe knew both of the boys though they probably didn't know her.

Rydell stopped short of Twilight, "Twilight, This is Ronin. Ronin this is..." he managed to get before Ronin spoke over him, "Hello beautiful, My name is Ronin." he said to her, "pleasure to make your acquaintance." he said taking one of twilights hands in his and attempting to kiss it. Rydell frowned slightly before turning to the other girl, She looked familiar. He pointed at her, "You look vaguely familiar." he said, "Madeline, Melrose, Melody..." he said going over names, "Melissa?" he asked as he thought he got it.
Rydell looked over at Twilight to see how she was doing under Ronin's care. He hoped she would like him, didn't know if she would or not though. "If he gets to be to much, just tell him to go comb his hair." he said quietly to Twilight.

Twilight smiled and let Ronin kiss her hand. "It's nice to meet you two Ronin." The guy seemed like someone she could easily get along with and she was thankful that Rydell had brought him along.
Melissa stood quietly. Her large blue eyes looking up at Rydell as he went through name. She was interested to see if her could remember her. "Yes, I'm Melissa." Lis was so glad that he actually knew her name. She looked to Temps who winked at her. temps then heard Rydell and laughed, "Don't you worry about me. I'm going to have some fun, and you should too."

Rydell smiled at Twilight, "I think that I can manage to have some fun." he said to her before looking back at Melissa. "I'm glad I got your name right." he said to her smiling. "Other wise it would of been really awkward." he said. He looked up behind them at the shop they were standing in front of, "Do you guys want to go here?" he asked Twilight and Melissa.
Ronin looked at Rydell and frowned, he was all for going out with his friend and meeting a new girl that Rydell thought he might like but Puddifoots was a little much for him. "Or we could go to the Three Broomsticks" he said to counter Rydell's proposal. He looked down at Twilight, "It is your choice." Ronin said to her softly.

Melissa looked at him and laughed lightly. "Yeah it would have been... I'm looking forward to tonight. I've seen you in the commons but never got the nerve to come over and talk to you..." she explained with a light blush. Lis then looked at the shop and said, "I don't really mind." Twiklight heard Ronin's idea. "How sweet." she said when the choice was hers. "I think the three broomsticks is less frilly. Let's head over there." Twilight slot her hand into Ronin's before leading the party to the pub.

Rydell waited to see what Melissa would like and smiled at her softly. "Come on, we don't want them getting there before us." he said to her as he reached down and grabbed her hand. "Besides, we might miss out on something funny." he said to her smiling as he began to lead her towards the Three Broomsticks.
Ronin was rather surprised when Twilight grabbed his hand and began to lead them to the pub, He looked back at his friend and winked slightly. Before turning back to Twilight. "So Twilight, What kind of food do you like?" he asked her. Attempting to get to know her better.

Twilight looked up at her date. "I don't know. I'm not really fussy when it comes to food. Though I am allergic to pineapples. It was one horrific night with a pizza is all I can say." Twilight laughed. "What about you?" she batted the question back. She briefly glanced over to Rydell and Melissa who were holding hands as they walked. She should have been happy but something twinged inside of her. Twilight shook it off and focused on Ronin again.
Melissa moved with Rydell her smiled slightly broader since they were holding hands. "This is bound to be one interesting night." she commented. Hearing Twilight's laughter she smiled, "Aww, sounds like their already getting along well." She hoped that soon she and Rydel would be talking and laughing over small things.

Rydell smiled at the comment that Melissa said and nodded, "I am glad they are having fun." he said to her, "So, I have to ask why couldn't you ever talk to me?" he asked her as they walked, trying to ignore Twilights laughter. "Was I too scary or something." he asked as he looked at her. "I certainly hope I wasn't." he said softly to himself.
Ronin was looking down at her and smiled, "Well, I guess that I am never ordering pizza with you. My favorite type is Hawaiian." he said to her, "But My favorite food is really simple, I love to eat Spaghetti" he said to her with a smile. "Any hobbies?" he asked her as he looked at the street in front of them.

"Oh no no. You weren't scary." Melissa told him. "I just get really nervous. Like, I'd tell myself to go and talk to you , I'd be three steps away and then bottle out. " Mellisa was so shy around guys usually, but had not passed up the chance ot spend time with Rydell tonight. That would have been a stupid mistake. She took her free hand and moved a piece of her hair behind her ear.
Twilight made a face, "Aww gutter. I'm sorry I'm such a difficult child." she said. "Spaghetti eh? I can make a pretty awesome bowl from scratch." It was one of the talents she had. "Hobbies? I love to dance and sing...but that's pretty much it. Yourself?" It was interesting getting to know Ronin, but she was only semi concertrating, as she kept an ear on Lis and Rydell.

Rydell nodded, "Well, I am glad that you decided to come tonight then." he said to her with a smile. "Otherwise I might not of been able to get to know you even a little bit." he said, "You know what, I think after we eat dinner, I might take you over to the book store." he said smiling.
Ronin smiled at Twilight, "Well, I like to dance a little. But mainly I like to play muggle sports. Football, American Football, and Rugby." he said to her as he saw the three broomsticks up ahead. "Apart from that, I don't really do much." he said as he thought about it. "I guess I am kinda dull." he said flatly.

Melissa couldn't help but smile. It was nice to finally be able to talk to him with no stress, no nerves. "Oh, that would be nice." she aid. "What authors are you into? I have this slight strage obsession with half breeds and the book they write. I just find them so interesting the way they cope."
Twilight listened to Ronin and his hobbies. "No way are you dull. That sounds pretty awesome. I've watched muggle sports once or twice. All seems quite rough in my opinion...maybe you could teach me a game and we could play one on one." Temps knew the games could easily be scaled down, so if she knew how to play then they could have some fun . They had soon reached the street where the pub lay and she smiled sheeing the warm glow coming from it.

"You find the way half breeds cope as interesting?" he asked her in surprise. He was growing to like the girl more and more rather quickly. "I read some muggle authors. Terry Goodkind, Margret Weis. Tracy Hickman." he said to her, "They right really good fantasy books." he said to her smiling. He glanced up at Ronin and saw the look of confusion on his face. "I think that Ronin is trying to hard." he said to Melissa, laughing slightly.
Ronin looked down at her with a small look of confusion, "I have never met anyone who was interested in playing muggle sports with me." he said to her, "I would gladly teach you" he said to her smiling suddenly. "Heck, maybe you could convince Rydell to play." he said, He opened the door with his free hand and let go of Twilights hand to let everyone through.

"Yeah I do. They're just normal people but have to cope with life in a different way." she explained her point of view. Melissa then nodded. "I've picked up a few muggle book but I still love the wizarding ones way too much." she laughed lightly. She was a pureblood and had been brought up with Wizardry around her.
"There's a first time for everything hun." Twilight told him with a smile. I could probably persuade him to join us. Maybe even Lissa." But she didn't sound as keen as she meant to. Temps pushed the weird mood aside and kissed his cheek saying, "Thanks." as she went throught the door. "Thank Ronin." Melissa said walking through into the pub. Twilight saw a table in the corner and pointed over to it. "Over there?" she suggested.
