(Thomas's pov)
We all got ready and met back in Mattheo's dorm. Liam joined us and we filled him in on everything and went over the plan again. We all apparated there. Mattheo grabbed Theodore and Liam and I got Indu since Liam and Indu couldn't apparate yet, let alone on school grounds. We arrived in front of a large mansion.
We went through the gates and to the front door where someone checked to make sure we all had invites before entering the place.
The inside was even grander than the outside. Everywhere I looked I saw marble floors, glass, and gold. The foyer ceiling was very high and a large golden chandelier hung from it. Out of the corner of my eyes I could see Mattheo roll his eyes and scoff.
We made our way to the ballroom and Malachi was standing outside the door. He stopped me before I went in and smiled at me "I wanted to warn you before you go in, Circe is not the same as you remember" He pulled away but after second thought he leaned back in "Be careful, I would hate for you to get hurt" He pushed me away and I continued into the ballroom. Mattheo eyed Malachi before pulling the others over to me.
"What was that about?" He asked
"Malachi warned me about Circe, saying she's not the same as I remember and to be careful"
Mattheo glanced back at Malachi then away "Well, we still are doing everything as planned" He pulled Theodore to his side "Now, try to blend in" He pulled away with Theodore and walked away. Indu asked Liam if he wanted to dance and the two of them went to dance.
I looked around the room, through the sea of people until my eyes landed on her. She noticed me at the same time and came over to me. I'm surprised I even recognized her from halfway across the room for she looked very different. I wasn't used to seeing her in so much makeup or in stilettos. She was almost as tall as me in heels.
She stood next to me and turned to look in the same direction I was, out at everyone. "Hello Thomas" she greeted
"Circe" I replied
She turned to face me "Are you wearing cologne?" She asked, tilting her head
"Yes, why?"
"It smells very..." She paused and she looked a little disgusted "strong"
I turned my head to look at her again "In a good or bad way?"
"Bad" She replied honestly
I couldn't help but smile "Well your perfume smells very strong as well"
"I know, I didn't chose it" A frown formed on her face
"Lavender?" I asked, I knew she always hated the smell of lavender
"Yep, I absolutely hate it"
I shrugged "Could be worse"
She narrowed her eyes at me "It can't get much worse than this"
"Well which smells worse, my cologne or your perfume?"
"They both smell terrible" She looked away and to the dance floor "Who is Indu with?" She asked
"Liam" I replied
"Is Mattheo here?" She asked
"I thought you forgot about us?"
