Event: Winter Ball

"Nothing!" Pyotr hissed, switching back to Russian in frustration. "Leave it, Lidij!"

Q shrugged nonchalantly as Skye did the same. She hadn't had anyone to dance with, and she knew Lucas would have...

Matteusz took it with a chuckle, pressing a kiss to Charlie's cheek as they walked inside, happy he could now show affection for those he liked.

Melissa looked around for someone to talk to
Stormie sat at a table with zoey, Macy and jax

Charlie looked at Matteusz, still smiling broadly back at him. Perhaps, despite the pain and tragedy, this might be the start of something he'd been longing for.

Lidija pulled her arm away sharply. "Pyotr" she reprimanded. "That hurt."

Ella put her book down. "Seeing as this is a ball, would you like to dance?" she grinned.

Matteusz grinned back.

Pyotr's face softened and he swore softly. "I'm sorry, Lidij," he murmured.

The twins looked at each other then back at Ella. "Who're you asking?" they asked in unison.

Charlie placed a hand on Matteusz's waist as the next song started to play.

Lidija shook her head. She glanced quickly over her shoulder and sighed. "No, I'm sorry, Pyotr," she murmured sadly in russian as she pulled him into a tight hug.

"Whoever wants to dance," she replied with a grin.

Matteusz copied slowly, watching him.

Pyotr nodded, hugging back.

Q and Skye each took a hand and tugged her onto the dance floor.

Charlie guided Matteusz's other hand to his waist and took a small step forward.

"There will never be another Alexei and the pain will never completely go, but it will bearable someday there will be another special person who will make you happy. I know it." Lidija said, tears welling as she gripped her brother tightly.

Ella laughed and let herself be pulled away, nodding her head to the beat.

Matteusz stepped back, trying not to perform too badly.

Pyotr just nodded silently.

Q and Skye both started to dance, flopping about like spaghetti.

Justin took his position, waiting for the music. "Ready?"

Jonathan shrugged. "Not really."

Dawn nods as the music starts.

Justin leads the dance.

Dawn follows, glidding and floating accross the floor with ease.

Justin was slightly rusty. It had been a while but he managed to perform well.

Dawn smiles, "Who taught you to dance?"

Emmalynn smiled and kept dancing with him

"That's for me to know and for you to find out." Justin teased.

Jonathan smiled.

Dawn smiles then kisses him, "I don't kow if I should hate you for that or love you even more."

Justin kissed her back and stuck his tongue out.

"So tell me about you, Jonathan" emmalynn said

Dawn continues to dance effortlessly.

Justin continued as well.

Jonathan stopped dancing and took Emmalynn's hand, leading her off the floor. "What do you want to know?"

The music finally ends, and Dawn smiles at him as they catch their breath.

Justin puts his arm around her.

"The basics. Then the more intimates. Then the deep dark secrets" emmalynn said laughing

"Ask me questions." Jonathan said.
