Kai woke a few days later, tired and not really sure what to do. School had ended early and he had taken a nap for a little bit. Kai had gotten his dress robes which really looked like the robes his father had worn during his mother and father's wedding though it had been half muggle and Kai's muggle side had been confused and laughed at how Kai's father looked, though the wizard side was slightly offended at it.
Kai looked at himself, then reached for his mask. It was gold and had simple swirls on it. He hadn't gone all out like some people, preferring the simplicity for the sake of simplicity.
Kai walked with one of the other chasers on his team. It was a girl who had a boyfriend in Hufflepuff that she had been with for years, that and people knew they were really just friends. Not Kai and Myrra just friends, but just just friends if that made sense.
He gave the chaser a little wave as she joined her date who gave Kai a little wave back before Kai stood inside the ball, looking for Myrra to make an appearance. Where was she? Would she even want to dance with him at all when he was only the rebound guy? Kai sighed, feeling his heart weigh heavily, not wanting to do anything really. He couldn't recognize half of those at the ball, which was good and bad.
He heard a slap and smiled a little, there was the first mistake of the night, there would be many more too. Kai wondered if the teachers cose masquerade just so that the students would have more drama between them and end up with the teachers having to do more in the students life as they repremanded those who got in fights or such.

Diego went upstairs upon dropping Brooklyn off, making sure she'd be okay the next day before going back to his normal schedule. Diego dressed for the ball in clothing that wasn't new, but his cousins from when he went to school at Hogwarts a year or so ago. Diego was okay with the hand-me-downs, but it wasn't his favorite. He saw a bunch of people with brand new robes and all of that and he sighed inwardly, brushing it off. People wouldn't know his robes were used. They didn't need to know either.
Diego's mask was something his little sisters came up with. It was cute and adorable and had glitter. He had gotten some clever comments on it's appearance but he just smiled and said his was more fabulous than anyone else's, that and he loved his little sisters so he just didn't really care what others thought.
Diego walked down with the group of guys he had planned the party with. They had told people about the party as well and had already set it up early that day. The group walked and were a little rowdy, but not as obnoxiously as some of the first years.
Diego and his group entered the ball, and moved out. Diego walked to the center where he led some girl from Ravenclaw out onto the floor with him. She was a transfer, one he didn't know. She had been happy enough to dance with him and seemed to be having fun.
He had no clue what her name was either. It was actually kind of funny. Few people had the guts to ask a girl to dance, and Diego had done it. He was proud of himself, as himself. He rarely did it since he knew that people looked down on displaying what you are really like.

Brooklyn woke in the night, once. Shaking and crying from the nightmare that had woken her. Brook was calmed only once the nurse had given Brook something to allow her to go back to sleep. Keeping her from having the nightmares anymore, thankfully.
Brooklyn woke in the morning, staying in a ball on her bed, shaking and shivering in her own thoughts when she heard a voice and jumped. She looked to the girl behind her, trying to calm her raised heart rate. It wasn't a death eater, she was all right, there wouldn't be death or more pain from her.
Brooklyn just nodded slightly. "Um... yes. Thanks," She managed before curling back up in a ball. She thought back to her nightmare, seeing her cousin and aunt getting tortured all over again. She shook and felt tears at her eyes and her chest ache. It was horrible, all of it and she hated this feeling of helplessness she was feeling at the moment.
She thought back to the night before, back to what Quentin had said. She had smiled at what he had said, finding it funny that he had gotten sipplies early and played BINGO all summer being the guy he was. He wasn't one she would expect to do such a thing, BINGO that is. There was no surprise with the school supplies.
She sighed, not wanting to seem rude to the girl, but not able to do anything more in her current and fragil state.
Brooklyn rested for the next few days most of the time. Her teachers gave her slack though she turned all the assignments in on time and quickly. She was quieter than usual though she was sure few people noticed. She didn't sleep much either, instead, going to the old gym room to do stretches and work outs. Kai had been concerned for her, being one of the few guys she knew and was friends with. He had checked up on her constantly, asking if she was okay and whether he needed to do anything for her. It might have been because she was one of his players, or one of his friends, either way, she was fine as she did know they were friends though not as close as some of them.
Brooklyn began to dress for the yule ball later than she should have. She hadn't been asked to go to the ball and had instead decided to get dressed and dance with her quidditch friends or something. Her dress was a pretty light blue that she had recieved in the male. She didn't even know who had sent it considering she no longer had any family or anything like that. She had only worn it because it was pretty, not knowing it had been sent by her mother who was keeping an eye on her, against her father's wishes. Brook's mask was something she had made herself with all of the time she had gotten during her recovery.
Brooklyn was happy with her final result, her hair in an elegant up do and her makeup, which wasn't really seen, the absolute bare minimum and extremely comfortable. Brooklyn walked downstairs with her back straight, smiling a little when people looked at her and seemed surprised, as if they didn't know Brooklyn had existed before that night. She ignored all of the people who usually ignored her, instead, accepting the arm of one of the quidditch players on the Ravenclaw team who was one of her other close friends as he led her into the ball.
They danced and she was happy. Every once in a while another quidditch player would cut in and another student would try thought they'd only receive the same treatment that they had given Brook only hours before. She wondered if the boy she really wanted to dance with would ask her or if she would just have to continue dreaming on about it.
