The dance was looking to be pretty fun. When Ryan approached them, he gave him a friendly wave back. "Heya." He smiled. "Oh yeah, you know it." He said confidently. "Oh hey Nina." Devon replied, looking from Garret to the others. Nina seemed a bit shy and whispered something to the guy and before Devon or Garret could do anything, the guy was dragged off. Devon grinned and laughed, pointing at the poor fellow. "On your own, haha." He teased and sighed. It was a little bit of a relief to know they weren't the only fish out of water. Meanwhile their teacher was just as lame as ever. Thankfully they carried on found some food to nibble on.

They got some snacks and found a table to sit down for a bit until they found the other half of their missing group. "Huh? I don't know, I haven't thought about it really." He shrugged. Science was a bore but he knew Gary liked it. "Oh yeah, practice is going pretty good, it makes going to school a lot less painful ya know." He nudged him a little. Soon, the girls approached them and Devon got to his feet and looked at them. "Heh not bad." He teased and looked around, still able to make out some other friends and classmates. The plus about the dance was that it could be low key and not as stressful because they were new. While some might think it was worse because they were freshmen, Devon figured they had less expectations to uphold compared to upperclassmen.

Talking with Amity and her friends while en route to the boys' table, was alright. Sasha was still uneasy but she was doing her best to get out of her shell and have fun like Ami. Ami was a good friend and Sasha wanted to be able to laugh and have fun, and not be locked in her own world of books and isolation. High school was about finding yourself right? Sasha was making an effort. Someday that effort would be worth it. When they finally arrived at the table, Devon seemed to be approving of their dress though it was a little weird. Behind them, other couples were dancing and getting close. Sasha didn't think they needed to do that though. Amity took a seat and Devon sat back down too.

"Thanks." Sasha replied to them and took the last seat remaining. 

"Hey don't blame me, he brought it up." Devon defended himself when Ami and the others started to talk about the upcoming events. "It's not my fault you girls take forever to get ready." He waved a hand and smiled at them. "Applewood would be glad to have my brain and brawn, thank you very much!" He flexed his arms, striking a pose. He could tell the girls were eyeing the dance floor. He could be up for a dance or two, it didn't seem so bad if you ask him. He was sure Garret and Sasha would need to be dragged like Ryan. "Anyway, let's get up and do some dancing! We're here, might as well try it out huh?" He stood back up and motioned them to follow him as he headed off to the center of the chaos.

Sasha licked her lips and looked to Ami, already sure that she'd want to dance too. "C-come on." Sasha smiled a little. "A Princess shouldn't disappoint her people." She joked lightly and headed off to take a chance. How bad could dancing be? She was a little bit afraid of making a fool of herself but she didn't think it would be awful. And she had her friends with her so even if something went horribly wrong, she wouldn't be alone. And she was determined to be a brighter star in the sky and not just remain dim forever. She looked to the boys and then to Ami, not sure how dancing ought to happen. Did she want to try dancing with a boy? Oh no no no. Not tonight. So she grabbed Amity's hand and decided Ami could be her partner.

Devon glanced to Garret.

"I'm not dancing with him." He said. "No offense." Devon said quickly.

Sasha glanced to Devon and Garret, well they could try just dancing together. The music was upbeat and very pop-centered. She looked around and took note of what everyone else was doing. People were just rocking their bodies and raising their hands, shaking their hips, head, whatever. She blushed a little and decided to twirl Ami around, which she did and laughed. That wasn't so bad. Sasha figured the guys could sort out themselves since she and Ami seemed to be having a fun enough time together, whispering comments about certain people while holding each other's hands and moving about. "Just think, our next dance we might have dates!" She whispered with a giggle. She didn't believe herself but it was a funny idea.
