Blue and Dae had the party all planned out. It was going to be a small civilized thing with food and some drinking.
That's what it was supposed to be. But instead half of Hogwarts was there. It was loud and bordering on obnoxious and Sofie knew Blue had to be having a panic right now.
But Sofie looked super hot. Maybe Blue wouldn't notice all the

Blue said it would be a low key thing. Holden should have known better.
He was sitting by the fireplace on one couches and eating a sandwich, trying to decide how long he had to stay before slipping out. He didn't want to be a jerk.

Her outfit had been basically chosen by committee and she thought she looked damn cute, which was so super good since if the guy she found was the guy she was looking for then he really was cute.
"Hey, it's Holden, right?"

Holden looks over at her and for a moment he just blinks. Is she talking to him? Obviously she was, she said his name. But it still surprised him. He finally found words after an uncomfortable amount of silence, "Yes, yeah. Holden. That's me." Nice one Holden. He puts his sandwich down and angles himself so he can see her better. "And you're Lot."
He knows who she is, everyone knows who she is. She's one of those people who stick out. One of those people with a little friends. "Some party, huh?" He couldn't really think of anything else to say.

Are these nerves? Crazy. She's not sure exactly what to do, so barreling forward the way she does with anything she wants is the only thing she can think of.
"I feel kinda bad cause like, I talked Blue into having a party. But I didn't invite all these people, and these drinks are pretty nice, so think he'll forgive me?" She was drinking... something alcoholic? It was clear and vaguely fruity, kind of like a sparkling water if sparkling water made you feel good.

It really did start small and quiet. But within a few minutes some of his fellow Hufflepuffs asked if they could join. He said yes, it was their common room too. So he snuck out and went to get some more food. He wasn't gone that long but when he came back in the size of party had doubled.
Blue froze in panic, he had no idea what to do. Finally he put the food and cast a Muffliato. He thought about shutting the party down but he didn't want to disappoint Lot.
He just started walking around trying to stop trouble before it started. "This is bad," he mutters as he takes a sip from his flask.

I should have known this would happen He signed. Hogwarts might be huge but when it comes to news and parties it's smaller than Hogsmeade. He handed over the flask. He looks around, there are more younger students than he is comfortable with. I'm giving it thirty minutes and then I am shutting this down. If Lot is hitting it off with Holden then she can stay but everyone has to go.

We should've just planned a rager. At least if it had been intentional then they would've succeeded and not just ended up kind of annoyed?

Despite being a first year and a Slytherin, neither of which readily lend themselves to knowing a Hufflepuff party is happening, Bolly is here. Grampa Henry was a Hufflepuff, so that basically makes him an honorary Hufflepuff by descent, right? Right! Anyway, he is here. And eating your crisps.

"That's one way of looking at it," Bolly agreed. "But, on the other hand, you kind of only have a boyfriend because of my mad family distracting skills."

Ten minutes before curfew, Professor Popa entered the badger den with an unamused look on her face, silenced the music with a flick of her wand, and waited to see who would notice her.

Holden approached her, he motioned for some of his younger housemates to start cleaning up. "Good evening, Professor," he tried to sound casual.

"Yes, it does seem to have been, Mister Lewis," Elena said dryly. She did not particularly raise her voice, but the question that followed was projected across the room in a way veterans of the stage would have envied. "Are you aware that curfew is ten minutes?"
