Halloween Gala - Open to All! for the 31st



Henry had shaken more hands tonight than he had in his entire career as a quidditch agent. It seemed like everyone was in agreement; the charity was a great idea and this fundraiser was turning out to be a huge success. Henry was the first to turn the talk to his brother, telling those who approached him that Seth was the mind behind it all, but apparently his brother had been boasting the exact opposite, and Henry was receiving praise he didn't normally receive.

It could really make a bloke feel like a million galleons, to tell you the truth.

Standing at a corner of the dance floor to get a good view of things, Henry felt someone slink particularly close to him and he smiled down at his glowing girlfriend. While it had taken Henry about a week to be able to talk normally without a stutter after Heidi had revealed the news, he was now brimming with pride in just about all aspects of his life.

"Are you having a good time?" he asked, putting a hand to her lower back. Henry had been scolded to not fret as much, so he refrained from asking if she was tired and needed to sit, or go home! He'd go home if she wished. "The band should be starting up again soon."

She made a valiant effort not to literally puff her feathers up in vain pride. It may have been a considerable amount of time since she had the opportunity to go the extra mile, but… she still knew how to do it. She probably should have gone as a peacock. Her lips curled as she though what her most excellent friend, Narcissa Malfoy, might say about that. Oh, she hoped they weren't here. There was only so much nostalgia she could have for her youth. Adamina instead focused on being here with her handsome husband in his very Muggle costume, which her research had led her to believe stemmed from something similar to her beloved comics. Not Batman, or even Superman, but she got the tingles anyway.

She tried to press her forehead to his, giggling when his costume impeded the movement. "It's a good thing my mask is one to hold and not strapped to my face." She put it in place and repeated the action, only to have the beak smack against the visor, now leaving even more inches between them.

This was so nice! Adamina could count on her hands the number of times she and Tim had really gone out not only after Astoria was born, but after Daphne. There was never the need, or more, never the desire. They were busy people with jobs that had other people depending on them; at the end of the day, what did they really want but quiet and each other? Or, she amended four years and two children later, family and its quiet chaos. Four years. Two children. The words gave her equal parts thrill and panic.

"Estella is brilliant and kind," she sighed, lowering her mask and tucking her hands around Tim's neck. "I feel guilty, though, being so happy and not guilty that we don't have the girls tonight, though."

"I assure you," Tim said, flipping up his visor so that he could actually kiss his wife, "Our daughters have been primped and pampered enough in their two short lives to last them well into their Hogwarts years."

He was the first one to question any plan making, with doubts about babysitters or if Daphne would be able to get to sleep without her usual bed time story. Astoria was still so young which made it harder to part from the girls, but Tim had always liked Halloween and this seemed to be the perfect night to put those worries behind them. His mother would take care of the girls, and he and Adamina would be able to spend the night together, holding hands, kissing, snogging in random corners like Hogwarts students...at least, Tim hoped they could get a bit of snogging action in.

Don't get him wrong, there was plenty of snogging and more done at home (two kids in four years, you do the math), but those kind of activities in the privacy of your home often felt like amateur stuff when there were hundreds of people around. Not that his mind was only on snogging, no, no. Tonight was about having a lot of fun! Dressing up, dancing, kissing his wife when the quidditch blokes gave her a look-over just to show them what's what.

Tim's grip around her made it easy for him to spin them around a bit, his feet awkwardly moving as they were just too tight to make any proper dance steps, "No kids, no worries. What would milady like to do now?"
