"Oh.." Was all Meme managed again. Suddenly a laugh bubbled up and she bit her lip to avoid blurting it out. Not now... She bit harder but ended up snorting loudly instead. She tensed up but the seal was broken and she howled with laughter.
After chuckling away she wiped a tear from her eye and breathed deeply. "Hoo.. Oohh! I'm sorry, it's just.. You were practically telling me earlier! Ooo manster, am I silly.."
She looked at the fidgety selkie and smiled. "I'm sorry, I'm not laughing at you.. It's just.. I mean. Me?!" Words seem to keep on failing her.
"Thank you for telling me. That must have been difficult for you? Meme looked down at the table. "Well.." And now she wasn't sure how to respond about her feelings.

Melody gave a smile as she watched Jewels and Rorrim dance. They were so nice together, even if only was for one night.
As she smiled, she noticed out of the corner of her eye, Damon. She bit her lip and went to reach for Roswell's hand, until his stomach began to growl.
"Oh, wow. All this walking around sure made me hungry. Do you mind if I get something to eat?"he asked as he put his hand to his stomach.
Melody looked down, "No, no, it's fine."
"Th- hey, something wrong?"he asked seeing her look down at her shoes.
"No, no," she cleared her throat continuing to avert eyes with Damon and Cassandra.
He saw where he was looking at and wrapped his arm around her, giving a hug, "Melody, it's okay. It's in the past and now I'm with the luckiest ghoul in the universe. What matters is you being happy, right?"
She nodded and looked up at him, giving him a kiss on the cheek, "Yes, I suppose you're right, thank you," she gave a smile, "Now lets see how much food we can fit on a plate."
He nodded, walking with her to the snack table.

He smiled as he watched his date and Rorrim dance, they looked nice dancing together.
Then he looked around, he guessed he was dateless now too. Welp, only one thing to do, and that was catch up with Tori and Sally.
"Tori!" he called out to her, giving a wave.
She looked over and gave a smile, waving back.
I guess it's hanging with friends time, he thought to himself.

Sally watched Jewels and Rory dance together and tilted her head. She felt happy seeing Jewels as the queen, shiny as she deserved to be. Even with a shiny dance partner! She seemed happy, and that made Sally happy. She heard Felix and glanced back over at him. She smiled to herself and looked at Tori, "Looks like now we can relax and have fun." she told her. Fun seemed to come naturally to her now.

Ronan cringed at Meme's laughter and nodded jerkily.
"Yes... you... I mean, you may not be conventionally attractive in a physical sense." That wasn't a good start. "But you are sweet and patient and smart... and... and... I cannot explain it, just the more time I spend with you, the more I get to know you, the more... uhmazing and bootifiul you become. " His voice cracked and he exhaled deeply, closing his eyes. "Being around you is.. easy. Least... comparatively. And.. I suppose I just.. had to tell you . You said dive right in and you're always right about these things. If you don't... feel the same I mean, I get it. " He looked up, his expression pained. "Just... tell me. And then we can go back to pretending none of this happened."

Jewels leaned close to Rory so he could hear her over the music as they danced. "I am sorry and.. and the newspapers? I talkedtoIris, she's goingtowrite aretraction... h.. hopefully Marceline will be here soon." She did feel a little guilty about dragging him away from his dinner date.

Meme took off her hat and tufts of hair fell into her eyes. Welp, this certainly was awkward. She felt her cheeks flush in shame for laughing at a time this this.. Ronan grimaced at the laugh but he continued anyway. "Glob, you're an idiot Meme." She thought.
He was so sweet, and even know when he could barely string a sentence together without fumbling over his own words, she couldn't help but smile. He was kind and level-headed and they worked just like hotdogs and relish. Ronan
"We can't just pretend this didn't happen." She sighed. "It doesn't work like that. It's just.. I dunno."
She took off her monocle and turned it nervously in her palm. "I don't know how I feel! I mean, there's certainly something there and I'm not opposed to romantic feelings, just.. I don't know." Meme looked down "It's never my intention to hurt him or mislead you, but I've never put much thought into us being anything more so I- I don't know." She repeated again, getting frustrated that she couldn't think of any more words.

"uh.. ok?" Ronan began, clearly unsure of what to say now. The pair shuffled awkwardly as silence descended on the conversation.
A silence broken by a single voice declaring.
"You are both such idiots."
Both Meme and Ronan stared at the speaker, frowning.
"Wait.. what?"
"Oh sorry, don't mean to intrude" The antlered boo didn't sound like he really meant that. "But... yeah... idiots." He waved a hand dismissively at the pair's incredulous look and elaborated.
"I mean think about it." He addressed Meme. "Cute guy just pretty much told you he's in love with you and you're unsure about how you feel? Come on ghoul! Throw the dude a bone or... a balloon.. I dunno. Just, go see a boovie or something. What have you got to lose?"
Ronan stared at the other boo in utter incomprehension.
"Um.. WHO are you?" He asked.
Perry just laughed. "Perry Hartley, and you're welcome." He glanced behind them, spotting Vinnie Lovecraft searching for where he'd gotten to. He had claimed he was just going to get punch. He pulled his hat down over his face.
"Erp! Sorry, gotta go!"
He stood and disappeared into the crowd. He'd taken to avoiding Vinnie as much as he could since she'd gotten a little too close during the dancing. much as he hated to admit it, Nathair had been right.

Meme pinched the bridge of her red nose and sighed.
"But... yeah... idiots." Some new voice continued talking.
She looked up and her eye twitched in anger. WHO the heck was he? "Hexcuse me?!" She scoffed and turned to the speaking boo. She opened her mouth to hurl abuse at the rude monster.. But.. he made a good point.
The peryton made his excuses and Meme growled as he left the table. "What a-" She mumbled and trailed off. She didn't want to risk their friendship.. But maybe she did want to be more then friends?
The clown looked back at Ronan, "Maybe he's right..?"

"Y... you think so?" He was staring after the guy in complete confusion, that was odd even for monster high... right? He shook his head, then seemed to realise what Meme was actually saying.
"Wait.. you mean... ? I... am very lost right now."

"I don't know how to.. I don't know about relationships though." She admitted with a groan. This was rather sudden and she needed some space.
Meme stood up and scooped up her bowler hat. "'Need to think about it." She said simply and walked off.
Soon she found herself in the ghoul's bathroom, blinking at her reflection. "Bloody Big-Tops.. So now I'm that ghoul.." She sighed and leant against a bathroom stall. Surprisingly there wasn't a congregation of ghouls around, just one.
The tall cyclops was bent over, closely inspecting her eye makeup in the mirror. The ghoul expertly applied some gold liner in one swift movement and glanced over at the clown.
"Are you okay?" She asked, her single eyebrow dipped in concern.
"Boo troubles," Meme sighed again.

He nodded, he had no idea either but he couldn't help but feel a pang as she up and left. Had he done something wrong? Was she actually going to come back? He sighed, wondering if he'd just driven her away. He slumped at the table and quietly watched the dancing couples, it all seemed to come so naturally to them. He envied them their social skills. Doriana and Mothew seemed to be enjoying themselves, and that made him feel a little better, but at the same time, as he watched them dance and laugh he wondered why it couldn't be the same between he and Meme. Maybe he shouldn't have said anything.
He had to fix this, but sadly he didn't have any sort of ability to erase memories or go back in time. Drat. looked like he'd just have to wait it out.
His eyes widened as the purple haired troll ghoul from earlier approached.
"A.. are you going to hit me again?"
She laughed. "I didn't hit you, I gently prodded you in the ribs." She sat down opposite him. "But no, you did the right thing. She's happy now." She pointed toward Doriana and Ronan nodded.
"I know. He makes her smile."
"Why so blue seal boo?" She rested her chin on her hands and looked at him.
"uh..." He looked confused. She sighed.
"What's wrong?" She ventured.
He shrugged, uncertain he much felt like opening up to a stranger, particularly this rib prodding troll who he was frankly a little intimidated by.
"Hey you don't wanna talk about it, that's fine. But consider this. You can spend the whole night moping over here on your own... or you can seize the night and make the best of it!" She grinned, stood and headed back to the dance floor.
"Wait!" He called. "w.. what do you suggest?"
She called back over her shoulder. "It's a dance, why don't you try, ooo.. I dunno, dancing?" and disappeared into the crowd.

Ascreama giggled as she headed back over to their table. The mound of food wobbled on the plate in her hands and she carefully slid it onto the tabletop.
"Hello Ronan!" She smiled as she sat down and gleefully tucked in. "Needed a food break, all this dancing is hexausting!" Arcy waved at Ascreama from the dance floor, who continued to boogie solo.
"Why aren't you dancing? Where's Meme?" She asked, making sure to cover her mouth full of food with her gooey hand.

"Hey Acreama... Meme... um." He tried not to look directly AT Ascreama while she ate. "She said she needed time to think and ran off." He shook his head and reached for one of the many cups of punch meme had organised earlier. "I think... I just messed things up particularly spectacularly this time."

"Monster HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGH! Let's get this party CUH-RAY-ZAY!" Holt Hyde lept up on the stage and took over on the music. Immediately, the once-soft music morphed into a bass-thumping riff.
"Get on the dance floor and shake your boo thing!" Holt cried as he spun a record on his finger like a basketball. With one flip of a switch on the DJ board, the lights dropped down and colorful spotlights lit up the dance floor. Another flip of a switch and glitter started softly raining down from the ceiling. The lights reflected off of the glitter and gave the impression of jewels trickling down in the darkness.
"You see a ghoul without a dance partner? Ask her for a spin! You see a boo hanging out on the wall? Drag him out here! Because in a million years, when you're asked about this exact moment, you're gonna wanna say you were there, when CATTY NOIR gave her first Tombcoming performance!!!!"
Holt pointed and a spotlight blared up on the stage, revealing the newest student at Monster High, wearing her sparkliest, pinkest gown. Catty Noir smiled down at the monsters gathering on the dance floor and raised up her microphone....
