Israfel hadn't gone to prom. He'd been wrapped up in his own issues and in the end, he lacked a date. More then that...thing started changing. His voice had a noticeable crackle to it when he sang, and his wings were growing at an abnormally faster rate then he had anticipated. He felt awkward, but more then that...he was confused.
He'd debated asking Lucien to prom. When he thought about he felt off balance. His stomach got bubbly, his heart beat harder, and his earwings twitched like nobody's business. Something about the idea of asking the boil to prom hadn't settled well. So the siren hadn't. Now? He regret it. He wanted to go to prom with Lucien. Why he didn't quite know. He just..did?
Now, he was sitting in a tree, softly humming along with the songs that echoed out in the night. Alone.
And wishing he had asked he wind spirit to prom.

Lucien didn't even know there was a prom. Instead, he was curiously wondering just where all the music was coming from that he could hear echoing down the halls of the dorm and all through the fields around the school. The air was filled to the brim with it and he had no idea what it was, or rather, where it was coming from. He couldn't just stay there wondering idly while he floated in his dorm so he found himself following the sound of music that bellowed to him in the air with his curiosity guiding him.
He trusted where it took him wholeheartedly and where it took him was face first into a tree. He let out a bit of a grumble, rubbing his face with the palms of his hands as he looked around his whereabouts. He could hear the music better now, but not enough to tell.
"I don't suppose you know where the music is coming from?" He asked the tree.

The ghost moved silent and unnoticed by the sulking siren. Playing with the rose he often wore in his hair, Israfel tired to not feel too glum about not going to prom, but the fact was he could have gone. With Lucien if he'd had the guts for it too. He could just imagine him right no- "Ah!" The sound of the boil's voice got Israfel jumping, wiggling to look at the other side of the tree, what greeted him had Israfel smiling. "Lucy!" Wings flapped in joy, but quickly he felt blood rushing to his face.
Diving back behind the tree, the siren was over come with embarrassment. "Sorry Lucien." His fingers picked at the threads of his coat, setting his rose back in his hair for safe keeping"Oh the music um- er-" He looked back over to his friend, blushing. "It's prom." Another scoot over to that side. "I...didn't go." He was avoiding eye contact, as he felt all weird again. Wiggly weird.

The tree talked? No wait, he recognized that voice! It was Israfel and the air spirit quickly looked around to find the siren peeking from behind the tree with a smile. Aw. What a cute bird, peeking from the tree! He wanted to just pounce on him, much like his shadow had almost a year before! Unfortunately, birds were notorious for being quick and before he knew it Israfel had already ducked back behind the tree.
"Prom huh?" He said out loud, attempting to peek around the tree as Israfel looked back towards him. He only vaguely remembered what prom was now that Israfel had mentioned it. He remembered flyers perhaps? Or a poster on the wall as he passed by? It hadn't been anything more than a glance and a second thought but he couldn't help but wonder why Israfel wasn't there. Lucien was certain Israfel liked to dance!
"Why not?" He asked. "You like to dance, don't you? You went to the Scaretine Dance!"

Pricking up, his earwings twitched at the word dance. "I do love to dance it's just-" how did he tell his friend he'd been a coward? That he didn't know how to ask him to the dance? That he got all funny feeling and was rather confused about these new very unusual emotions? Israfel hadn't a clue. His letters home didn't offer answers, he didn't feel comfortable going to the student counselor. Or to any teacher really. He was at a loss.
"I wanted to go but-" But I wasn't sure. But I didn't know how to ask. But. But. But. Lots of Buts. Blushing Israfel wiggled his way down the tree. "I didn't." His wings came around him, like a tiny cocoon. "Um..er-" Looked at Lucien. "I still want to dance though."

The air spirit listened to Israfel carefully, tilting his head way one way and the other before deciding to float upsidedown instead. His eyes had never left Israfel, not wanting the siren to mistake him as not caring when he was just trying to get the best view. He loved to dance and wanted to go but...? But what? The air spirit shook his head, quickly floating back to a right-side-up position, holding his hand out to Israfel promptly.
"Then we should dance!"

And there it was, just a simple solution to what Israfel had thought would be a most difficult problem. Just dance. Timidly, Israfel reached out pulling back for a moment as he felt that fluttering in his gut. But looking at Lucien. A smile dawned on the siren's face. Lucien didn't judge him. He didn't turn away when he sang, he did laugh when he fel from flight. Lucien was-
Lucien was his best friend, and he wanted to dance with him. Taking the air spirit's hand, Israfel felt the fluttering in his body vanish. This was- this was good. "Yes!" He nodded, confidence returning. "We should!"

Lucien was just as ever: Lucien. He stood there with the goofy smile on his face as he waited for Israfel on his own time and he didn't say a word before Israfel accepted his hand. Bright blue eyes staring at the bird, watching over him like the very sky Israfel would someday soar through. He might not now, but someday he would and Lucien was satisfied being the one to watch him for this moment.
"Then we shall," he said as he pulled his arm in with Israfel attached, guiding them both around almost effortlessly. His movements felt natural, like walking on air. It was this moment that Lucien looked at peace, gracefully spinning over his own private road that covered the air around them. It was coincidence but the wind chimed in, blowing gently around the two boils as they danced. Like the wind, Lucien smiled gently toward Israfel, keeping eyes on him the whole time.

It was a bit awkwardly the Israfel steadied himself to dance. The wind spirit was graceful, making Israfel feel like he was simply not going to be able to match but- earwings flicked upright as he took a deep breath. He could do this. For Lucien! Following his movement was strange at first, but quickly, he was catching on.
"You're very-um" He blushed. Lucien was smiling and looking at him. Those wiggly feelings were coming back. "You're very good at dancing." He whispered, smiling as well." He felt funny, but it was okay. It was okay because it was Lucien and he was his bird. "Thank you. I... I am happy to dance with you! Even if not at prom!"

Lucien never would have expected that he'd have a talent for dancing, but it wasn't entirely unexpected. He was light on his feet and he moved quite gracefully even when he wasn't dancing. It wouldn't be the first time he'd been told similar tales, but to hear it was Israfel was just the top of the cake. His smile didn't widen, but instead it got softer and sweeter.
"You dance as wonderfully as you sing," he whispered in Israfel's ear. "I'm happy." He was happy dancing, he was happy doing anything as long as Israfel was there beside him. Heck, he was even happy when he was wearing elf hats on his feet because Israfel had made them for him.

Israfel would make a million elf hat shoes for Lucien. All for him and his feet, even if the ghost didn't need them. Blushing and trying to hide it was not working, and his earwings feathered out as Lucien complimented, earning a tiny coo.
"Thank you Lucien." Timid, shy even he reach up and pecked the boil's cheek before fluffing up his feathers. He-- he kissed Lucien. Not like a kiss kiss but- At the wiggly feeling were going nuts, and his dancing was jerking. Still, this was where he liked to be. This was where he wanted to be.

"You're very..." was all that Lucien had managed to get out of his sentence before he'd been stopped dead in his tracks. There was a small but notable warmth on his cheek that was completely foreign to him. It was a strange although gentle sensation that slowly began to overwhelm the air spirit. His breath went in and then slowly a sigh came out as a small blush tinted his face and he tried not to float upside down in what would probably be best described as bliss. What was going on? Lucien had not expected a kiss. No, there were plenty of things he'd expect Israfel to do when he got up close and personal to the boil and kissing him was not one of them! He'd expect the other boil to nuzzle nuzzle his face, to coo coo cutely and to generally just cling cling to him but this was the first time he'd really ever... kissed him. Not kiss kissed but kissed!
One hand found its way to his check and it pressed against it gently, a silly grin coming to Lucien's face.
"... welcome. Very very welcome."
