Astoria Greengrass (ornately) wrote in impetuousrpg, |
Astoria was excited to go out with Adrian. He had always been so nice to her, and handsome. Of course, it seemed that most of the men in her life were handsome. Still, she thought he'd be nice to photograph or draw. It had taken some convincing for her to be able to leave with Adrian alone, but her protectors would surely be at the gala and there would be children around for goodness sake! Astoria was never one to make a spectacle of herself and she certainly wouldn't be starting now.
She opened the door to him and smiled, stepping outside to greet him. "Hello," she smiled at him. He was in a suit, but it was perfect and he looked handsome. "You are hardly late." She took the rose from his hand and blushed at his compliment, smoothing out her dress before she looked back up at him. "Thank you. You look nice as well."
Closing the door behind her, she put out her hand for him to take. "Shall we?" They apparated moments later. As they entered the ballroom, Astoria smiled at the decor. "It's lovely." Her eyes flickered over the falling leaves and all of the children. They were adorable and she was happy to be out of the house. Turning to her escort, she looked down before speaking. "Thank you for taking me, Adrian. You are such a gentleman."
