Halloween Haunted Castle Event! Open to Everyone!
While she wasn't particularly keen on parties, she was set on saving wildlife. Everyone else seemed to rake in the galleons by throwing large events, no matter the scandals that erupted from them, so why couldn't they? Nora had conservatory's committee for quite some time now, and being the youngest by a good forty years, had devised this plan as a new and fresh way of funding. It helped greatly that she had friends that had access to some of the best party planners (or that she could twist Charlie Spinnet's ear until he helped her out), and things seemed to have turned out well. So far.

For the brave at heart, there was a grand maze that made its way throughout the haunted castle. Guests would be offered clues to get themselves to the ballroom, and if they were truly lost (as Nora was sure was to occur), for just a small donation (it's for charity), any money dropped into a clue box would light up a blue path down the correct route to lead the way out. With all the Gryffindors that Nora had put on the guest list, she was sure they were going to triple their goal.

There was a simpler route than the maze, which was simply to walk through the double doors to the dance floor. Nora was currently wavering between the two, having run out of pamphlets to give out at the front entrance therefore giving her no excuse to join the festivities. She felt rather exposed, as Delilah had stolen her cloak, and when someone tapped her shoulder she jumped nearly a foot in the air.

"Bloody hell!" she let out, spinning around. "You scared the life out of me!"

Matt watched her carefully, not realizing until she was this close how much he'd really missed her. The first few weeks of their rainbow and starry-eyed relationship had been fantastic in every right, and Matt had been worried that his late night madness would have ruined that chemistry. His heart was still pounding wildly, however, and even if Delilah was faking her happiness right now, she was trying, and that effort made his heart swell.

"That'd be great," he said, "Maybe, if you want, you could meet the guys---their wives are always pestering me about getting a girl, so..."

He turned toward her, hands going to her shoulders. She looked ruddy beautiful, and Matt would really, really hate it if she was just being nice. If she didn't want to break up with him before Halloween and ruin the fun. If she didn't know how to cut things off when dealing with someone who had issues like he did. Matt had always tried so hard for people to treat him normally, but it was now occurring to him that no one had ever known the real him and---that meant that there wasn't anyone out there who liked the real him.

Matt let out a breath, "You're still my girl, right?"

Delilah froze slightly at the mention of meeting the other players, and in extension their wives. That sounded, well that sounded a lot like meeting the family. Even if she didn't pay much attention to the game, she knew enough being twins with Charlie to know just how close teams got. And they had been pestering about him getting a girl? This certainly made everything feel a bit more official.

It took her a moment to realize that she wasn't scared about this next step. Not this feeling was nervousness. She wanted his team to like her, and she wasn't exactly sure they would. Caught up in her own thoughts about meeting his team and just how bad that could potentially go, Delilah almost missed his question. A warm feeling settled over her as she focused on the 'my girl'. She couldn't help but hum in contentment at the phrase.

"Oh, well, you see, I have decided that I am quite fond of you." Delilah reaching up to take one of his hands and lacing it with her own. "You're not going to get rid of me that easily, not now that I've made my mind up."
