Lenore flitted around her dormitory, frantically searching for various articles of her costume that had, somehow, ended up getting strewn across the room. She wasn’t sure if the costume that she was wearing for the festival would be appropriate, it was a little out of character for her to wear something like that but Kat had convinced her to buy it for Halloween, saying something along the lines that ‘Halloween is all about being something that you’re not’, or something similar to that.
Speaking of her best friend, where was she again? The blonde couldn’t remember if her best friend had said that she had a date or not, so Nori was left to fend for herself. She entertained the thought of not going at all and barricading herself in the library to get some studying done, but that would only make her friends—Kat especially—hunt her down and stick her into some other uncomfortable situation to make up for her not showing up to the Halloween Festival. So in the end it was probably in her best interest to actually go out tonight.
She hummed a nameless tune as she danced around the empty room, slipping into her costume which was reminiscent to that of what Alice would have worn in Wonderland, with a few minor alterations. Lenore found herself absently tugging at the hem of the dress, biting her lip, “It’s too short...” Or at least it felt like it was too short, she wasn’t used to wearing such revealing clothing—although Kat would argue that it was a lot less revealing than what most of the girls would be wearing at the festival.
Snatching her wand, the 7th year muttered a quick spell that she had learned from one of Kat’s Witch Weekly magazines, making her hair a little more curly than it usually was—giving her ringlets just the right amount of bounce. Lastly she pulled on her striped leggings and put on the matching shoes over that, she was officially dressed and ready to head down to Hogsmeade. Her stomach churned with nervous excitement, and she found herself worrying that she wouldn’t find anyone that she knew…and she’d be left there, alone and looking like an idiot with no friends.
Before she knew it she was strolling along the path to Hogsmeade, taken in by the beauty of the fairy lights that guided her way. The simple, yet elegant, decorations fascinated her and her nervous butterflies were momentarily forgotten. Though, once she entered the lively village they came back, fluttering around her stomach and making her feel a little nauseous from their persistence—she sincerely hoped that she would run in to someone that she knew otherwise she was in for a long night…
