Cressida and Leon
Leon's mask had been a gift from Victoria, who he had come back to the Academy to accompany to the formal. It was strange being back. Leon had felt out of place in the dances before, but he felt even more so now. At least most people didn't know who he was, and he had yet to run into Alex or Davian. John was around here somewhere. And Dana he'd already seen mingling in the crowd. He'd find an opportunity to say hello to her later.
Now he was waiting for Victoria to come back from freshening up. He was seated on the back of one of the wide couches, not caring how his feet rested on the cushions, and was observing the students move around the floor when Cressida approached him. From behind his mask, Leon smiled.
For Professor Hallowfen, he got off the couch and stood up to greet her. Cressida looked amazing, as always. "You're a sight for sore eyes. Is everyone new here, or have I just been gone too long?"
