At the beginning of the night, Halloween had been promising for Paul Muller. He had managed to get Theo Chastain, the girl he had been madly infatuated since he first laid eyes on her, to come with him to the ball. And she looked gorgeous. In the past, he had affectionately called her "Girl on Fire" during Quidditch games, but she really was on fire tonight. Her glittering figure riveted him and caught his eye among the angels and pirates, even from across the hall.
Theo had gone off to dance with Dorcas, and Paul had wandered to the corner of the room. He spoke with a friend for a few moments before turning away. That was when Alecto Carrow had seized her opportunity. She pulled him off to the side, interrogating him about things he overheard or things he knew. Things about the "Dark Lord" and his followers. If he had heard anyone speaking out against the Dark Lord. He rattled off some names including his own, the veritserum in the food and drinks making him more susceptible to speak the truth. Before he knew it or could really register what was going on, however, Alecto had obliviated him and left in the blink of an eye.
So, obviously, he had no idea what had just conspired over the last few minutes. He stood there, blinking and slightly confused and felt as if he had just missed something. But he couldn't place his finger on it.
