The Yule Ball

Sonia blushed softly. "Thanks."

Elrohir looked around the room. "So. Now what?"

"Um, well, have you seen the backside of our property?"

"No." Elrohir replied with a shake of his head.

"Would you like to see it?"

"Of course."

Sonia stood and led hi towards the back door. "Descartes, I'm going to show Wlrohir around the grounds if that's okay."

Descartes had a smus smirk on his face. "Of course."

Elrohir noticed the smirk, and decided to see how easy it was to make Descartes blush. He leaned over as he walked past and whispered in Descartes' ear. "Shall I say hello to Maik for you?"

Descartes gave a small blush. "That would be nice." he says.

Elrohir smiled smugly and followed after Sonia, feeling somewhat avenged.

Sonia laughed softly. "You enjoyed that too much."

Too much?" Elrohir mused. "No, I don't think so."

Sonia laughed softly. "Well, I enjoyed it too."

"Glad to be of service." Elrohir replied with a smile.

Sonia laughed softly. She walked with him through her mother's garden.

"It's a very nice garden." Elrohir commented as they walked. "They won't jump out and try to eat you, will they?"

"No, My mother's flowers are completely harmless. Except her black geranium."

Elrohir edged away from one. "Charming."

Sonia laughed softly. "Don't worry. You'll be able to tell it away from the others. It's the only black flower in here."

Elrohir looked warily around the garden for the offending flower, just to be safe.
