 Thomas Goodheart
Loving FatherAlbert Goodheart
Student (Junior) Thomas Continues his speech with the assembly for the new students of Class 1A. "Albert Goodheart of Class 1A, please step forward. My Son & Star Student has a few words to say. Albert gets on Stage & speaks into the Microphone where all the students are listening: "As I begin begin my 3rd Year at Triton High, I'd like to share with you my vision for this coming year. It is my firm belief that each of us must accept the responsibility of bettering our school. However, change cannot occur without sustained effort and an unprecedented level of commitment.
That is why we must restructure our daily lives to accommodate this lofty goal. I'd like each of you to dig deeply into your well of motivation, and re-evaluate your convictions... To imagine a bold new future without losing sight of the realities around you.
That is the key. I am certain that many of you have your own visions of the future... For us to reap the full benefits of our education, your participation, ideas, and enthusiasm are essential. Thank you, enjoy the Dance & have a wonderful School Year." And with that, Dinner is served at the stands. Thomas brings out a ball with Questions and places it on the stage for an upcoming game. Then Albert got off the stage and went to his table where Arista is. "So, Arista. I'm going to get some dinner from the Stands. Care to come with me?"

 Alaka'i laughed as she continued to be curious about his favorite food. "I guess you will." It was flattering that Arista wanted to know more about him. And more than that-- she offered to dance with him. "Well I-- I just learned to dance this morning so I'm not very good but-- I'd really like that, Arista. But you'll have to allow me to ask you properly after we eat." He added with a kind smile.
He was honestly shocked and secretly relieved to hear that she didn't belong to anyone and that she wasn't, in fact, on what she considered a real date. His eyes wandered to Todd and Amy on the dance floor as she pointed them out for an example... it was clear to Alaka'i that Arista was disappointed, and perhaps frustrated as well. Arista wanted to be swooned into a relationship, not have it handed to her casually. It was understandable. Alaka'i looked to her with an sweet, apologetic smile. "It sounds to me like you'd like him to earn your affection. Or at least try harder. You like Albert, right? Have you tried telling him what to do-- or does that take the fun out of it?" Really, it was something he felt should come naturally in a relationship.
The more he got to know Arista, the more he wanted to know. Alaka'i wanted to be close to her, but he didn't want to steal Arista from Albert either. Even so, he couldn't help but start imagining scenarios where he might be able to sweep her off of her feet and into his own arms... just then, he turned to hear Albert's father's speech, followed by Albert's speech. In the time it took for Albert to get off the stage and walk over, he had to say one more thing to Arista in private. "You're worth it, Arista. If you don't feel appreciated, something is wrong. Don't feel obligated to stay with him just to make him happy... even so, I'm sure he wants to make you happy and just doesn't know how. And if he can't learn-- do what is best for you."
Just then, Albert arrived and invited Arista to join him for dinner. Apparently they had doddled longer than Alaka'i had expected them to.Suit

 "Thank you..." Todd felt hopelessly sheepish and awkward. Just as he felt he might die of nerves, Mr. Goodheart got up and said a few words, followed by Albert. Todd stopped dancing and held Amy's hand in his as they listened. "Albert is good at this kind of thing. He gave the speech last year, too." Yes, his friend was very smart. But, also, a pleople-pleaser. He wondered if Albert actually liked the attention or if it was ever hard for him to be himself. Todd imagined, that it he were Albert, he would be afraid of letting other's down or messing up. Since, he was sure, there were plenty of people who would be happy to see him fall on his face. When he finished and dinner was announced, he looked back to Amy with a grin.
"Did you want to eat here or somewhere else?" He asked. If she wanted to eat somewhere else, he would insist they get one more dance in before they left. If not, he was sure that they would have some interesting conversations with others and maybe enjoy the game and some dancing afterwards.Wearing

Nicholas and Victor Lore Nic and Vic looked up in unison as the speech started up. "Bored now." Nic looked to Vic. "Yeah. Lets grab a snack and keep looking for Peter." Vic suggested. "Thanks for the dance, Charlotte./"Thanks for the dance, Charlotte."With that, the both bowed out and went for the snack table...

Albert Goodheart
Student (Junior) Charlotte MarsStudent (Freshman)Prom Dress Albert looked at Alec. Since Albert danced with Arista, he seemed to like her but thought to himself that he maybe falling in love with her, but the time to tell her that he likes her would come later. Albert went to the dinner tray & got himself some Gemelli with meatballs, Dinner Rolls, a Vanilla Milkshake & a slice of Cheesecake. "So, Alec. Did you like my dance with Arista? She's a lovely dancer." Then Albert turned to Arista. "Arista, there's going to be a game starting soon at the dance. Care to join us?"After Charlotte ate her dinner, she went out on the dance floor and caught the ball as soon as the School Staff announced the game & started with the ball bouncing around the dance Floor. "I wonder what this game is with this question ball? Todd, do you know?" Then Charl reads the question: "Who is the most intelligent person you know?"

She stood hand-in-hand next Todd as she listened to Albert's speech. It was obvious he was smart, and it was also obvious he knew it. She nodded along to Todd's words. She looked towards him when he smiled at her. "Well... It doesn't matter to me. We can eat here if you'd like..." She was never one for making decisions.

Student (Junior) Charlotte MarsStudent (Freshman)Prom Dress Then Charl held the ball toward Amy & her friends. "guys, Who is the most intelligent person you know? I would say Amy, she's a good friend to have and she & Albert are Star Students." Albert was the Next person to answer that question: "My dad, since he's a very good teacher." Then Albert turned to his sister and Arista. "How about you 3, Amy, Arista & Penny?"

Peter Pan
 Peter's concerned expression changed to a bright smile. "Whatever it takes to keep your spirits up." If Peter had figured out how to fly again by now, getting to the dance would have been quicker. Then again, he wasn't sure if now was a good time to tell her the truth... and he hated that she didn't know the truth either. Luckily, the school was within reasonable walking distance."It's a nice evening, so I thought we could walk if that's okay."[[time skip]] When they arrived at the dance, people had begun eating and there were a few people on the dance floor. Looking about curiously, he smiled to himself and turned to Sandy. "We should get our picture taken while the line is down. What do you think?" He suggested, wanting to be sure that he had something to remember the night.

Penelope
Penny laughed and rolled her eyes. "Pffff... I like both Albert and Amy but neither of them are as intelligent as Peter Pa--" Her answer cut short as her heart did a leap in her chest. "PETER IS HERE!" She had been looking for her for days but now that he was here the only thing she wanted to do was make a good first impression-- which did not include gawking. Frightened, she plunged herself under the table to hide and tried to calm her nerves by breathing deeply... she gathered her dress around her like a barrier and hid deep in her ruffles....

Peter Pan
Before Sandy could answer, they already had people approaching them wanting to chat. It bothered him that a stranger would just walk right up to him and introduce themselves-- then, he realized that Charlotte was in his company. His eyes shifted from Albert, to Charlotte, and back to Albert again. "Peter." He offered his name, giving Albert a firm handshake with sharp eye-contact. Dismissing Albert, he looked to Charlotte and smiled. "Well well well, if it isn't one of my favorite girls. You look-- different-- but nice." Looking to Sandy, half-smiled."Charlotte is a family friend."

Sandy giggled at Peter's reaction to Aleber; it was not hard to tell he was not a fan. Those to are like the except opposite of each other. Well other then them both not fully understanding social norms. It was not before long that girls were asking to dance with Peter, and same with Sandy with boys. "Peter, I did not know you were so popular." She winks at him. "You are right, lets go get our picture taken."

Completely embarrassed, Penny started to tear up form under the table, not daring to show her face. Perfect! Thanks a lot, Charlotte, now he knows I'm hiding form him this is the worst night ever! Terrified, she held her breath and listened... from the sound of it, he was with another girl... she didn't dare show her face. Going rigid, she curled into the fetal position.

Albert Goodheart
Student (Junior) Charlotte MarsStudent (Sophomore)Prom DressAlbert was concerned about his sister & decided to help her. "Penny sis, what's wrong? Why a low face & what are you doing hiding under the table?" Charlotte was shocked to see Peter with another girl & to see her Best Friend's feelings hurt. So she went up to Sandy. "Exactly what do you think with Penny's Peter, Sandy?! I just CAN'T believe this! Penny likes Peter, she wanted to dance with him & you hurt Penny's feelings!"
