It was the day of the masquerade ball and Remus was running back and forth trying to make sure you would be ready in time.
"Remus, it's only 12:00, the ball isn't until later."
"Yes, but we need to get your dress and do your make up and your hair and-"
"Moony, I've got this, you shouldn't stress over it."
"I know, but this is the first time you've been to a dance and I want it to be perfect."
"Alright, if you really want to help, you can come with me to get the dress, it should be ready by now."
"Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!" Lupin hopped up and down and clapped cheerily.
You both apparated to the front of the tailor shop, mask in hand, you entered and heard the familiar chime of the bell overhead.
"Hello Ellen, how are you today?"
"Wonderful, who's this you've brought with you, (f/n)?"
"This is my friend, Remus."
"We're here to pick up (f/n)'s dress." He said.
"Ah, yes. Do you have the mask?"
Handing her the mask, she hurried to the back of the shop, searching through dresses until she stopped at a jet black dress. She pulled it off the rack and brought it so you could see. (The dress above :3 )
"It's amazing, thank you so much, Ellen!"
"It was a pleasure, dear."
You accepted the dress and mask and held them up to yourself.
"What do you think, Remus?"
"I think you're going to be the most gorgeous person at the ball, (f/n)."
"Aww, shucks." You blushed a light pink.
"Come along now, you need time to get your hair done as well as your make up."
Handing Ellen some galleons as a tip, the two of you exited the shop, covering the dress in a light, black cloth to hide it from whoever may be going to the ball that night.
Apparating back to St. Raven, you set the dress down flat across the top of the couch and observed the mask, Ellen made you a raven.
~one hour before the ball~
You had the dress on with your boots, which made you an inch or two taller, and your mask on your face. Your hair and make up already done.
Your (h/c) hair was done in a French braid down the center and you had mascara, black eyeshadow, as well as some light blush and lipstick.
"You look amazing, (f/n)!"
"Thanks, Remus." You happened to look down at your dress and noticed that the mark on your collar bone was showing. "Moony! We've gotta cover the mark up with something!" You hurried upstairs to your study and opened and emergency kit, pulling out an artificial skin patch and stuck it over the mark, just covering it, and you blended it in with some foundation.
"That was close, good thing you didn't show up without covering it or else people would've known." Remus said.
"Now we can wait about 45 minutes and then we can just ride my broom over."
"What do you mean by 'we'?"
"I only assumed that you'd want to escort me over since you were so excited."
"Yes! Of course! It would be a pleasure!"
"So now we wait."
"Ooh! Now I can dress up to take you over!"
