"Well, that's what fa up and picking one would o solo!" Kylo replied for him

"Couldn't have said it better" Charlton seconded as if that were really the case, well, it was partially true though The girls lining up part

Geoffrey just shook his head, there was indeed some truth to that, so he didn't knohat to say in response Recalling Serena's card, he first turned to Leonard

"Leonard, do youyour name in Serena's card?"

Leonard took Serena's card and listed his name for the quadrille and the lancers, then he handed it back to Geoffrey

Seeing that there were still 11 dances left, he knew he still needed to let her dance with others Although there was still some jealousy which he realized were unfounded, he still asked Charlton next

"How about you Charlton?"

Charlton was careful to school his expression Inside, his heart was thundering, nervous that Geoffrey and Leonard ht notice, but still, it was overpowered by his excitement and elation Anyway, on the outside, he was successful to give the opposite reaction

"Alright" He said as he gave a wry s at the list, he knew he can only have one dance with her Well, if he can't have a Waltz, the polka was a good second

It is fun to dance because of the Irish jig and is al it back, Geoffrey turned to Kylo Kylo took the card and just plotted his name on another quadrille

Kylo also asked Geoffrey to plot his name on Via's card To which, he also wrote his name for a quadrille
