Masquerade Ball (tags: Everyone)

"Oh my," was the only thing he thought, when Jane put the rose right into her cleavage. It became even more difficult to focus on her lovely face and not her breasts! He swallowed nervously and walked along with his lady up to the dancefloor. Miguel gave her a kindly smile, while she started to feel nervous about all of this happening right now. The young man stepped close to Jane and put her left hand on his shoulder. "Trust me," he whispered. Miguel took her right hand in his left, drewing her even closer to him. Finally he put his right hand on her waist and spun her in a dance around the room.

Miguel laughed along with his friend, dancing and holding her close. The man caught his breath every time her cheast adjoined to his. The smile didn't left his lips as he looked back at Jane enjoing the process. "See, that's easy," he laught and suddenly picked her up with both of his hands. She was light as a feather, so it wasn't hard to lift her and spun around for the last time. "Well, how do you feel yourself?", he asked Jane, keeping holding her in his arms. His head was spinning a little bit, but he still stood firm on his feet. "I think we need a rest, mine head is dizzy as hell," he smirked and gently put her back on the floor. He looked around for a waiter who could bring them something to drink, but his eyes stopped at the entrance to the balcony. "Come on, I've got something to show you...", he jerked his head toward it and gave Jane his hand again.

The moment his lips pressed against hers, Ariel's eyes widened as her whole body froze. She stood there in shock before she finally closed her eyes and kissed him back. Her left hand rested on his right lower arm, while her right hand rested on his shoulder. She took in the kiss and felt her whole body warm up. Her cheeks turned red as her grip on him tighten, her body closing in on him. She had never been kissed before, and this was a wonderful way to have her first kiss. The way he kissed her made her feel like they were the only people in the room. In a way she felt as if she was floating. Ariel had no idea a kiss would make her feel this comfortable, and this hot. It was almost embarrassing how it all felt.

Slowly Ariel leaned out of the kiss to look up at him. Her eyes staring straight into his with nothing but passion. "You shouldn't have done that.. Now I fear I will never be able to leave you." She whispered as she caressed his cheek with her hand.

Ariel's hand then went to his hand and grabbed it as she walked away from the dance floor. "You mind if we go outside or somewhere else? I want to be with you right now.. And only you.. If that is okay?" She asked as she felt herself getting flustered as she looked away from him nervously. "It's okay if not.. just.. that was my first kiss and I'd like be alone with you. You know.. to, um.." She stopped as she giggled and moved a strand of hair out of her face. "To enjoy that feeling again with you.. I don't know, I really don't know how things work after kissing someone." She admitted finally as she laughed once more out of embarrassment.

"Oh my gosh I'm making this much more embarrassing then it should be!" Ariel said as she covered her face with her hands, laughing once more.

Ariel smiled as he guided her to his favorite place. Her hand holding his tightly. When they reached the fountain she froze in place as she let out a gasp. Her hand covering her mouth as she did. The roses that covered the fountain were absolutely gorgeous. This was probably going to be her favorite place now too. It was breathtaking. She walked to the fountain and took in how beautiful it was. The details in the design of it was amazing. Her hand traced the swirls that were carved into it as she stared at the beautiful blue water. The water reflected light on her, making her eyes appear to glow. Thankfully tonight was cloudy so she wasn't glowing like she usually did. Which was why she was comfortable being out here.

Ariel turned around to face James and sat on the fountain. She fixed the bottom of her dress before looking up at him when he apologized for kissing her. She couldn't help the smile that immediately formed at the idea of him planning a better idea for when he kissed her. Her eyes softened and looked at him passionately. "I love the way you kissed me.. So don't you dare apologize. I couldn't have asked for a better first kiss." She whispered to him as she leaned forward, her eyes not leaving his dark green ones.

"It was perfect, just how I imagined it." Ariel said as her smile grew. She would've blushed if it wasn't the truth. Of course it made a shiver run down her back as she admitted that.. But he had admitted to wanting to kiss her as well, so she didn't feel alone. Though a part of her wondered why they felt like this already? They had only known each other for a couple of weeks, and it seemed like they knew each other from childhood. She felt so comfortable around him. She could let go of all her worries as long as he was next to her, keeping her mind off of whatever troubled her. He was perfect to her, the kind of man she had always dreamed of.

"Now.. what were you planning to do for when you kissed me?" She suddenly asked, changing the subject as she narrowed her eyes mischievously as she smirked at him. Teasing him.

Joseph had been informed by Michael that the Princess would be easy enough to lure. He hadn't realized just how true those words were until he had gotten to the party. He was dressed as a snake, a dark green mask with the features of a snake engraved on it was over his face. He didn't bother lifting it until the Princess was talking to a young woman in a green and black dress. Sure enough the Princess had spotted him and he gave her a little wave. As she moved towards him, he turned around and started leading her off towards the stables. He lowered his mask as he went so no one would recognize him later if he managed to pull this off. As expected, she kept following him none the wiser until they had reached the stables. He had paid off the stable hands working there so no one else was around and now he was just waiting for her to reach him.

Joseph took in a deep breath, "Oh I'm sure you'll find out." He said before he turned around and pressed a hand against her mouth and used his other hand to encircle around her waist and throw her against the stable wall. He pressed her there and sneered down at her, "I'm not Brooker, Your Highness." He said a wicked smile curling the corners of his lips. Joseph's smile only widened at her frightened look, "In fact you had the pleasure of meeting my brother last, not me." He said as he shifted and looked down at her. "I hear royalty is worth a lot, I certainly hope that's true for your sake." He added.
