Surprise Party in Room 1

Moon and Miniver have been working hard since Mia had taken Draco out on their date.

Decorations (in the colours Miniver had suggested instead of Moon's rainbow idea) are hung in the room. Crepe paper braids of orange, greyish blue, and green streak the ceiling. Moon's put up little paper decorations of cakes, balloons, and cartoonish animals dancing. Along with the cardboard balloons, there are huge groups of orange, grey-blue, and green helium balloons scattered all over.

On a table, with a colourful tablecloth depicting very happy cats and dogs partying, is the cake Skill had artfully created for Draco. It's wide sheet cake; the white icing is the basis for the artistically piped images of Martin and Dart flying over a huge forest full of winding paths. The forest ended where the words 'Happy Birthday, Draco!' were written in flowing script. It was the sort of cake a tarot card would make.

Moon giggles as she sets a stack of gifts (all from her family for the birthday boy) on the table beside the cake. She turns to Miniver and grins.

"I hope he's surprised," she says proudly.

It was definitely bright and cheerful and there's glitter everywhere, including on Miniver and Moon.

Miniver hangs to the side of the dancing. He owes Moon. He'll wait for her to be ready...

Miniver bows to her, stiffly and formally. He's wearing one of the suits Robbie gave him, and has apparently TRIED to make his hair look presentable.

"Yes, milady."

It's likely that Mia will owe Draco another dance for this.

Or another kiss.

But either way, she wants to see Miniver smile.

"Would you like to dance, Miniver?"

Miniver looks startled to be asked, but smiles shyly. "Um, really? Yeah, okay, sure..."

She gives him her hand, ready for him to lead.

Draco does in fact get a free moment, and of course, he'd make sure to have one for Miniver.

He couldn't help chuckling at the package. He held it up for a moment.

"Very you. Thank you." A brief embrace and kiss before he unwrapped it.

Miniver takes her hand and leads her into starting form. He is by no means perfect, but it does seem as if he's practiced this. Probably not with an actual partner, but practiced nonetheless.

He smiles at her a little.

With a nervous laugh, he takes her hand, and leads her into the cleared space to dance. He slips into position correctly, if not perfectly gracefully, seeming a little afraid to touch her. Tense.

It's familiar, the same thing at home.

"I'm not made of glass, you know."

Miniver grins and leans his head against Draco's shoulder for a moment.

Inside the package is a little box, and inside that... something that might actually be quite familiar to Draco. A moonstone pendant. But Miniver still has his, wearing it in plain view, and Mia has the one Draco gave her...

"I dunno," he replies, relaxing as he becomes accustomed to the dance. He does not do it badly at all. "I guess. Hey. This is a lot of fun. The party, I mean. Is this really the payment you wanted?"

"Sorry." He makes an effort to relax. "I'm not used to being near girls. I um... y'know... don't really know what to do with 'em."

"Yeah. I guess. I mean, I don't know. It's weird, to be really, really HAPPY. I've always been like... content, or at least numb. Happiness... I think I am happy. I guess I am." He smiles and twirls her.

Draco picked it up with a small smile, and glanced toward Miniver, "Still trying to protect me, aren't you?"

"Yes. Well. I have something else for you, too, but I'd rather... you know... when there's not so many people about." He leans in to kiss Draco lightly.

"Well, I'm just another person. Granted, being a woman makes me a bit different, but that does not mean I'm completely alien."

No, it's being from a different world that makes her completely alien.

Draco was focusing on Mia a lot.

But he's not going to exclude Miniver. Certainly not from a dance.

So he stepped over to offer his hands, "Ready?"

"Actually," Miniver says with a chuckle, "it kind of does to me." But he dances well. He leads her in a waltz which is -- not perfect, but passable. He doesn't trip over his feet or anything.

Draco's eyebrows quirked upward that, "Oh? Another package to unwrap later?" He grinned before kissing back.

"Well... then... I'm happy. I'm not TRYING not to be."
