RP: Choosing Ceremony
Characters: Everybody
Date: January 16, 2006
Setting: The pavilion at Villa Lotus
Summary: 2nd Choosing Ceremony
Warnings: TBD

It was odd. All rooms looked different in the nighttime from what they did during daylight. That wasn’t odd. What was odd was how different the pavilion looked from this side as opposed to the other side where Alicia had been sitting a week ago. She was still sitting, she was still dressed to the nines, still looking across to seven incredibly handsome wizards, Lee was still there, and there was still a stand with roses between them. The only difference, really, was that now she was one of the people who got to choose. No, not got to; had to.

Before she could muse any further than that, Lee looked up from his notes and in an instant he was The Host, Lee Jordan, and he was intonating his words – just so – while looking at the camera – just so – as he welcomed them all yet again.

“A week ago, after each wizard had chosen one witch that they would like to get to know better, we said goodbye to Ginny. Tonight, Finbar will be part of the choosing ceremony after spending a week, along with the rest of the group, getting to know each other. So with no further ado; Ladies, please give a rose to the wizard you would like to get to know better. Lavender, if you would get us started.”

Melinda + Stephen

Looking across the pavilion to the line of men still left, Melinda knew that no matter who she chose, she would choose right. They were all good men, at least from what she knew about them so far, and she would be delighted to get to know each and every one of them better. Swallowing down the uncomfortable feeling in her stomach that had appeared when she had watched Bill go with Meghan, she sent a genuine and warm smile to the wizard she would be choosing.

Their date in New York had been great and she had truly enjoyed seeing a side of him that was so different from the otherwise slight aloofness that he presented here. “Stephen,” she said, discreetly smelling the fragrant rose before she offered it to him.

Stephen found himself mildly surprised by Melinda's offer of the rose. Despite enjoying their date earlier in the week, he was sure that Melinda had her eyes on someone else. Indeed, he was still sure of that, but McCormack had placed a claim on Weasley first. An interesting turn of events.

Still, this gave him another week and there would be another woman arriving in paradise soon.

"Thank you, Melinda." He kissed her politely on the cheek. Well, that would give Weasley something to think about for the next week.

With a smile, Melinda leaned a little into Stephen’s polite kiss. “My pleasure, Stephen,” she said as she began pinning the rose to his lapel. “I like your company.” Which was true. Maybe Stephen didn’t give her the same kind of burning butterflies in her stomach like Bill did, but she had genuinely enjoyed the time she had spent with Stephen and it wasn’t his time to leave yet.
