Her nose scrunched as she tipped back and into Frank's chest, letting herself rest against his shoulder. It was really nice to be out, especially when all you had to do was show up. Of course there had been the preparation, but dress shopping with Dorcas had been fun, and the music was wonderful (wonderful!), and seeing so many of her friends at the same time---it was just lovely. It helped her keep the depressing thoughts that had crept into her head every hour of the day for the past three months away, and Alice was glad that she was finally able to remember what it was like to not be miserable.
She turned and kissed Frank's cheek quickly, sitting back up and watching the crowd with her neck craned to get a good look at everything that was going on.
"Do you remember what you wore to our last Halloween ball?" she said, not looking back at first, but after a beat she turned with her chin resting on her shoulder, eyes full of mischief.
