The committee had really gone out of their way this year to make the annual Masquerade Ball an event to remember. Their theme this year was "Frost" (even though it was only the end of August), and they had done an absolutely brilliant job decorating the huge ballroom. The entry way was beautifully decorated with trees, as well as chairs for those who needed a rest. The rest of the ballroom was equally as beautiful, decorated in whites and soft blues, with candles hanging from a mirrored ceiling to look like starlight. The dining area held beautiful tables, as well as gorgeous ice sculptures, and makeshift chandeliers made out of frosted branches. It was beyond magical. In a corner of the dance floor, a small string ensemble gathered around a world renowned concert pianist to set the mood with soft waltzes and other such music.

There is a separate room that contains the items for the silent auction. There are several sculptures, some paintings from the local gallery, and some package trips to the spa.

Mica Danvers & Leo Franklin - Silent Auction room

Leo looked at her as she spoke, and then his eyes moved to the painting. He studied it and nodded after a few moments. "Yes, you are very right. Freedom. The artist wants to show us this is where she or he wants to be. I feel this place gives the artist some calmness, there's barely any pression in the brush strokes."

He smiled and chuckled. "Well, I should. I'm the Art teacher at Newport high school. I would have to rethink my job if I didn't know about art." And it was certainly nice to be able to speak to someone who also knew about art. "And you seem to know a bit about art, Miss..." he hoped he'd get her name as he would like to continue the conversation and it was a little strange when you didn't know the name of the person you were speaking to.

She let out a little sigh. "Yes. Freedom." He was far too right. She would give anything to be free like her oldest sister. It was an impossible dream, though.

Mica raised her eyebrow slightly. So this was the new art teacher. He seemed kind, and he definitely knew what he was talking about. Mica wasn't enrolled in the classes, but she'd heard things about their previous teacher that left much to be desired. "Danvers." She said, tucking her hair behind her ear. "I love art. It's a beautiful form of expression."

"Are you bidding for it?" he asked curiously. He wouldn't mind the competition, but he wanted to walk out of the ball tonight with that painting. The more he looked at it, the more he fell in love with it.

He smiled softly and took her hand in his, pressing a soft kiss to her knuckles. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Miss Danvers." He would've usually just shook her hand, but being in a facy ball made him let his inner prince charming out. "It is," he agreed with a nod. "Do you just admire it or do you also paint or sculpt?"

She shook her head, looking at the painting fondly. "My father is, though I think you might have surpassed his maximum on this one." She smiled. He seemed nice, and just the type of person she wanted her paintings to go home with.

Mica couldn't help but blush a little when he kissed her knuckles. She knew it was wrong to feel so ... flattered, considering he was several years older than she was, and a teacher at her school. "Mostly admire, though I dabble with paint and sketching on occasion." That was a total lie, but she didn't really want to admit the painting was hers. "What about you, Mr. Franklin? Do you paint?"
