Iris's POV

I was watching him leave and my legs didn't want to listen to me and move to run after him, I stood there frozen and unable to move an inch. It was all silent and I could hear murmur coming from the Auditorium.

When I heard steps in hallway my head snapped and I walked towards the door hoping it was Alex, but I knew it wasn't. I put on a fake smile when I heard the knock and I pulled the door open.

"Hello Theodor!" I said with fake enthusiasm.

"Hello Iris... I brought you these..." he said and gave me a bouquet of flowers that I couldn't recognize, but they looked pretty, its petals were different shades of pink.

"You shouldn't have!" I said still smiling, not being able to stop thinking about Alex and what he was doing right now.

"Let me put them in a vase, and we can go then, okay?" I asked and turned around not waiting for his answer.

Walking around the room mechanically I put the flowers in a vase and poured water in, then I took Theodor's arm not even noticing what I was doing and we walked towards the elevator.

"Iris!" I heard him yell and I blinked few times looking at him confused, he didn't need to yell at me!

"What?" I asked.

"Are you even listening to me?" he asked and looked pissed off, I narrowed my eyes at him.

"I'm sorry, I zoned out..." I said and turned to the Auditorium where the music was coming from.

"I said you look beautiful tonight..." he said catching up with me.

"Thank you." I said looking at what he was wearing for the first time tonight. He had black tux on, simple yet elegant, a bowtie also.

"Isn't a tux what humans are wearing to the balls?" I asked raising my eyebrow.

"Yeah... but we do wear them too, I'm not a huge fan of our elegant clothing, I can't move in vestments..." I chuckled dryly and then we entered the Auditorium.

It was beautiful. And everyone in there was beautiful. Their dresses were amazing, and I didn't stand out like I would if I was on some school ball or something like that, here everyone was super elegant tonight.

I was looking around for a pair of one specific pair of eyes, but I couldn't find them, so I followed Theodor's lead.

"Can I ask you for a dance?" he asked smiling at me flirtatiously.

"Of course." I smiled and took his hand.

He was quite good dancer, but it felt wrong. I didn't really want to be here. Well, I realized that the only person that I want to be with anywhere walked away from me a couple of minutes ago, so I made a plan. I'm gonna pretend that I'm not feeling well, after a couple of dances, Theodor knows I was taking injections... He won't doubt it.

Theodor's hands around my waist ached my skin through my dress, I felt extremely hot and the dance wasn't even over, seems like I won't have to fake it.

Pulling away from Theodor's hold I tried to breath normal again, but air leaving my lungs felt too hot for my liking, and I felt all tingly, and as if someone touched me it'll hurt, so when I saw Theodor's hand reaching for mine I jumped away and bumped into someone.
