It was finally the day of the ball. Usually Scott despised these dances, but he looked forward to this one now that he developed a friendship with Prince Jimmy. The cyanette spotted the shorter in the crowd, his blonde hair sticking out like a sore thumb in a group full of mostly brunettes and gingers. Scott walked over to Jimmy and tapped his shoulder.
"Oh, hi Scott! How are you?" Asked Jimmy.
"I'm doing great, you?" Replied Scott, dragging the two over to seating.
"Good, much better now that I'm talking to you." They both sat down.
"Wow, I have that much of an effect on you?" Asked the cyanette.
"I guess you do. Some magikal joy aura or something." Responded the blonde. Scott chuckled at this.
"Scott, I know you don't like dancing, but would you dance with me?" Jimmy asked.
"Um, well, I don't know how to dance_"
"That's fine, just copy me!"
"Then... sure, I'll dance with you."
"Yes!" [Imagine IRL Jim saying this, it's adorable]
Jimmy grabbed Scott's hand and pulled him into the crowd, then grabbed the cyanette's other hand, moving them into the proper positions. The blonde started spinning them slowly in circles, their steps in sync. They continued their dance for a couple songs until someone cut through the middle of them, forcing their hands apart.
"Who are you two?!" Asked the person, a lady on the older side.
"I'm Prince Jimmy of the cod empire."
"And I'm Prince Scott of Rivendell."
"Well I don't know if you know this, but homosexuality is illegal now."
"We know that, yes. What's your point?" Asked Scott.
"You can't be dancing with your boyfriend, You'll be killed!" The lady said, sounding nicer this time.
"Oh, he's not my boyfriend!" Both boys said at the same time.
"I can tell you are! But don't worry, I won't tell. I just advise you don't dance so closely." With that she walked away, disappearing into the crowd.
"... Did that old lady just ship us?" Asked Scott.
"I... think so?" Replied Jimmy.
"Huh. Weird."
"Indeed."
"Well then, should we go sit outside? If dancing is 'too risky'." The taller used air quotes.
"Yes, that sounds nice." The shorter nodded.
