| Jamie stood in the entrance hall, practicing her guitar. She was tuning it, because this was pretty much the first time performing in front of people. She looked through her music one last time trying to not phych her self out before she goes on. Jamie let out a deep sigh as she grabbed her guitar and the stool she was planning to sit on. Jamie made her way to where the band was playing the conductor nodded to her as the band stopped playing and left. Jamie the stool down and faced everyone speaking into the microphone "Hello, my name is Jamie, i will be playing and singing 2 songs for you. The first will be Wish you were and the second will be you were meant for me. I hope you enjoy." Jamie said smiling turning kinda red. | |

| Jamie took a deep breath as she sat on the stool and started to play her guitar, after a couple notes she started to sing " Gone away are the golden days Just a page in my diary So here I am, a utopian citizen Still convinced there's no such thing as idealism
Memories they're following me like a shadow now And I'm dreaming And I've already suffered the fever of disbelief
I've seen your act And I know all the facts I'm still in love with who I wish you were It ain't hard to see Who you are underneath I'm still in love with who I wish you were And I wish you were here
I was true as the sky is blue I couldn't soon say the same for you So now I find denial in my eyes I'm mesmerized by the picture that's in my mind
Tell me when I'll finally see your shallow heart For what it is Cause I don't want to keep on believing in illusions
[Chorus]
Sometimes I can't explain And I'm so sorry that I can't I'll try to concentrate On your true identity
[Chorus]" Jamie took a deep breath again as she ended the note and song. She smiled. | |

| Alice clapped loudly for her friend. Jamie had a beautiful voice! After she sang her second song, Alice would go talk to her. She spotted Preston in the crowd and went to greet him. "Hello," she smiled. "Jamie sure has a beautiful voice, doesn't she?" | |

| Jamie took another deep breath "Oh i'm gonna do this song acapella with out accompaniment" she said as she put her guitar down. Still sitting on the stool. "If you want i will take any request of songs. I think it will be okay to do one more for you guys" she added looking over to the conductor who gave her a thumbs up. She took another deep breath and started singing again, " I hear the clock, it's six a.m. I feel so far from where I've been I got my eggs and my pancakes too I got my maple syrup, everything but you. I break the yolks, make a smiley face I kinda like it in my brand new place I wipe the spots off the mirror Don't leave the keys in the door Never put wet towels on the floor anymore' cause Dreams last for so long even after you're gone I know you love me And soon you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you. I called my momma, she was out for a walk Consoled a cup of coffee but it didn't wanna talk So I picked up a paper, it was more bad news More hearts being broken or people being used Put on my coat in the pouring rain I saw a movie it just wasn't the same 'Cause it was happy and I was sad It made me miss you oh so bad 'cause Dreams last for so long Even after you're gone I know you love me And soon you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you. I go about my business, I'm doin fine Besides what would I say if I had you on the line Same old story, not much to say Hearts are broken, everyday. I brush my teeth and put the cap back on I know you hate it when I leave the light on I pick a book up. Turn the sheets down. Take a deep breath and a good look around Put on my pjs and hop into bed I'm half alive but I feel mostly dead I try and tell myself it'll be all right I just shouldn't think anymore tonight 'cause Dreams last for so long Even after you're gone I know you love me And soon I know you will see You were meant for me And I was meant for you
Yeah.... You were meant for me and I was meant for you. "
Jamie sighed in relief. She did way better than she thought. Her face was still red. "If you have any request say now". | |

| Caleb spotted Preston in the crowd. Wait, what? Caleb could think billions of other things Preston would rather do than be at a ball. How very unlike him.
"Hey man." Caleb said, slapping his mate on the back. "Why are you here?" ---
Aurelius weaved in and out, through the throngs of people listening to the singer and bopping along to her harmonies. Obviously it was a female singer. Aurelius didn't know a man who could sing as tunefully as that.
He made his way up front, and watched the girl. Pretty dress, pretty voice, talented. Hmm. Interesting. --- Leonora was at the very front of the crowd, watching her friend Jamie. She had had no idea how lovely Jamie's voice was. She smiled at Jamie, trying tolet her know that there was a friendly face waiting, and she wasn't to be nervous. Comforting or not, Leo had tried her best.
[ooc: someone help me out here. No-one knows Aurel or Leonora. Sorry about using three characters but I want to |D] | |

| Alice greeted Leonara. "You're Leonara Bonaventura from Ravenclaw house, right? I'm Alice. I've heard about you from Jamie, it's nice to meet you," she said smiling. | |

| "Yes, that's me." Leonora smiled. "It's lovely to meet you, Alice." "Isn't Jamie doing brilliantly?"

"Oh haha." Caleb uttered sarcastically. "At least I have someone to tag along with." He added, under his breath." "And how is Mama Preston, these days?" Caleb said, sticking an ice mouse into his mouth. He loved the Hogwarts spreads, it's just they didn't supply for the confection-loving kids. --- "Hello there, Preston." Said Aurelius, approaching his friend. A gryffindor/slytherin friendship was always a weird one, but Aurelius could help but have the feeling that if Preston tried, he could accomplish a lot. And that's the kind of guy Aurelius liked, whether his forte was business... or pranking. | |

| Freddie moved towards Aurelius he was listening to Jamie singing as were quite a few people. She was a very talented singer and guitar player. Unique. "Hey Aurelius, you showed then?" He grinned. He noticed Preston was also there, he nodded his head slightly in way of greeting him. There was a another Gryffindor boy and a Hufflepuff girl. "Have we met?" He asked, smiling slightly. | |

| "I've been here for quite a while, thank you." Aurelius said, sarcastically. He knew Freddie was taking the so-called mickey, but he didn't really care. "Where have you been, how's your night been going, and who have you danced with so far?" Aurelius laughed. Freddie was really social person - much to Aurel's dismay, of course - but at least it gave them something to talk about. "Ah, of course, you haven't met this lot. Well there's Preston, Caleb, " - he said, gesturing to the boys - "and the female additions, Alice and Leonora. I hope you've caught up now." Aurelius concluded, grinning.

| Jamie smiled and said "Thankyou everyone" as she put back the stool picking up her guitar leaving. She was bright read. As she saw Leonara and Alice. She ran towards them saying "Hey guys." out of breath. | |

| Alice poked Preston. "Ask her to dance you moron. I know you like her," she whispered. Now she looked at Jamie. "You were wonderful! You have such a beautiful voice Jamie! We should so do a duet."

| Leonora hugged Jamie immediately, after her departure from the stage. "You were incredible, Jamie! Really brilliant." "Ah, I'm so proud." Leo joked. "Did you enjoy it?"

| "Well I danced with Lucille a bit before, but that's it. Liliane isn't even here yet!" Freddie shrugged. He didn't care much anymore. "Nice" he replied as Aurel introduced each. He knew of three of them due to their meetings with Adelina. He looked up to see Jamie leaving the stage. "You're a very talented singer and musician" he complimented offering her a drink of butterbeer. | |

| Preston returned a head-nod to Freddie. They dont speak to each other very often. "I heard that." Preston heard Caleb mubble. he had a glint of mischief in his eyes. "And you're partially wrong. My date was busy up on stage." He put his arm around jamie. Time to wing it. "Hi. Im Preston. Be my date tonight?" He asked her with an alluring voice, also beaming a smile. that mightve been overkill. Who knows. | |

| Alice smiled. "Much better," she said. There was a new band getting up on stage. She noticed the faces, and recognized the Weird Sisters. | |

| "Well, that's the least successful night you've ever had, when it comes to the ladies... what went wrong?" Aurelius smirked. No matter how bad it was, it was kind of a comfort to Aurel, since he hadn't danced with anyone yet. He didn't even have a date. --- Caleb laughed and rolled his eyes at Preston's lame, but funny attempt. "Trying to pull a fast one on your best friend doesn't work. Asking out Jamie doesn't work... you might be on an unlucky streak." Caleb joked, winking. | |

| Jamie said "Thanks guys." as her face started red again. She took a deep breath as preston put his arm around her. She looked up at him, he had just asked her to be his date jamie looked at Alice and Leonara for a little help. | |

| "True, they all seem to think i'm with Liliane" Freddie frowned. Stupid moral friends. Maybe he should go back over and talk to Shina & Lottie, they at least had no morals. "Anyone caught you eye?" he asked glancing the room. There were some nice looking girls, nothing exceptional, but nice. | |

| Leonora nodded at Jamie subtly. She liked Preston, and she thought he'd be quite nice for Jamie. She looked at Alice, an expression that clearly shouted 'Don't. Push. It.' --- "Nah, they're all... well, it's not that there's no one that's caught my eye. But I just dunno how to approach them. I mean, changing a frog into a chair is easy but this... this takes real guts." He stole a few glances around the room, and laughed. Nervously, but he still laughed.

| "What a horrible wing-man. Your demoted to person in the background." Preston shot a grimance at Caleb. He continues trying to woo her. He knew what girls wanted. Attention, Things, or just someone by thier side. He's figured this out the past year. Jamie cant be any different?
"You did great on stage by the way." He pulled his wand out and conjured her a boquet of pink and white lilies. "For you." | |
