Halloween Masquerade!

"Zoey came to visit us." Alia told Tom.

"Thank you." Lena said to Halo.

"Yes. You?" Sam asked Justin.

"I'm Wes" he said.

"Yeah. I'm real close to here." Justin said.

Logan chuckled at Emma's silence. "Are you nervous?"

Sonja leaned into Oliver. "Do you want to dance?''

Sierra looked at leo
Sarah smiled "well wes would you like to dance?"

Wes nodded "yes I would."
"Nah I'm just a little tired I have been working so much" Emma said.
Oliver nodded and smiled"I would love to."

Emily kissed Chase's cheek.

Sam nodded, not sure what to say to this Justin.

Leo looked around a bit.

"Well, I know how to wake you up." Logan smirked.

Justin chuckled. "So, what do you do for a living? You look like you could be a model but you also look like the type who would prefer not to be in the spotlight." He said.

"Well then what are you waiting for?" Sonja asked. "Let's go!" She was buzzing with excitement.

"Oh?" Tom asked, feigning interest very well.

Halo just made a noncommittal noise.

Sierra held leos hand and walked to the punch bowl
Sarah lead wes to the dance floor

"I'm going to college to be a psychologist." Sam replied.

"Halo, don't be mad, please. Tonight I just want to have fun and not deal with the stresses of life.

Alia nodded.

Leo followed Sierra faithfully.

"I'm not mad,"

Tom hummed a little with the music as they danced.

"Ooh. So could you figure out what's going on in the inner workings of my mind?" Justin aksed jokingly.

Sierra handed leo a cup of punch

Alia glanced around for Logan. "It's starting to worry me that I haven't seen him yet." Alia told Tom, forgetting to mention who she was speaking of.

"I could." Sam said honestly.

Leo room the punch with a thanks.

Sierra nodded and kissed his cheek

"Then what am I thinking?" Justin asked.

"You're disappointed that I'm not the girl you're looking for, but I assume I look a lot like her, otherwise you wouldn't be dancing with me. But I also sense that you're not that shallow, so you're over compensating by having a conversation with me. And if that lonely look in your eyes tells me anything, it's that if I'm not careful, you might end up kissing me or saying something to get my heart rate up and then leave me high and dry when she comes along. So thank you for the dance, but if rather not have my heartbroken again." she said and pulled away from him, weaving through the crowd.

"Who?" Tom asked, though he thought he could guess.

"Logan." Alia said just barely loud enough.

Lena sighed and just decided not to speak.

Tom nodded. "I can look, if you'd like?"

Halo just danced, keeping his nose out.

"It's okay. Oh, forgive me, I'm being horribly rude." Alia said. "Logan always finds me. I should be asking more about this man! How did you two meet?"

Tom shifted a bit. "We were friends, business partners, then he had a party and we both got drunk,"

Alia raised an eyebrow. "How very scandalous, Mr. Whittaker." Alia teased.

"It was really all my doing." a deep voice said behind Alia. She turned her head to see Ben with a ghost of a smile on his face. "But you'll have to give the credit of adopting children to him."

"Hello, love," Tom grinned, leaning over to kiss his cheek. "Finally found who I am?"

"I had a pretty good idea the entire time." Ben said, leaning over to return the gesture. "I'll get you back later." Ben whispered to Tom. "Hello, I'm Benedict Loric." he said to Alia and took her hand, kissing it briefly.

"I'm Alia. It's so nice to meet you. I wish Logan was he's for you to meet." she said.
