End of Season party! For the 3rd

Drystan did not usually consider himself a sore loser. He had experienced enough defeats in his career to understand that winning was sometimes as much luck as it was skill—the latter of which he had plenty, the former he was starting to doubt he had any. He would even go so far as to say this was one of the top seasons he'd ever played. Losing the Cup might not be such a hardship, in that light. But to lose to the team he considered the most unsportsmanlike in the League was just an insult to injury. To have lost to them for the third time in the season was, in his perfectly reasonable and justified opinion, grounds for murder.

But a lifetime sentence in Azkaban would leave behind a wife and three children who would likely be just fine without him, but he'd miss them. So mass murder was off the table for tonight, at the very least.

Press snapped pictures outside the admittedly-abandoned looking building of 23 High Street, and Drystan knew there were more inside. Entering the rundown lobby, by-passing the elevator with the out-of-order sign, they made their way up the long flight of stairs to the grand doors of the first floor landing and into the—holy Mer—

Of course, the invitation specified formal wear, but Drystan hadn't honestly been expecting a high-brow formal occasion from the Kestrels. It was a ballroom. There was emerald green positively everywhere. There was something that looked suspiciously like a string ensemble. A bar, where he fancied he would spend as much time as possible, was in the corner. Platters with hors d'oeuvres and glass flutes zoomed by. Having stopped moving, wearing a stupefied expression, Bess had to tug his arm to get him to continue his stride.

"Hell," he muttered, pulling a grim face at the ostentatious yet somehow tasteful décor. Lifting their linked hands, he kissed the back of hers while surveying the spectacle before him.

"Five minutes? Five minutes isn't too soon."

ooc: Quidditch players/personnel + their guests! BLACK TIE! Party is on the first floor in this cool but creepy rundown building. Have fun! :D

His touch always made her lose her focus. It was hard to keep up arguments in this relationship if they were within a foot or so of each other, it was a testament to how good Drystan was at making her feel like she was the most important person in the room, in the house, in the bloody country. If she wanted to keep her senses she had to stay out of arms' length when it came to her husband, but right now she was more than welcoming the soft caresses and not-so-subtle slips of his hand.

They were very good at slipping away for private rendezvous at these events, or even at smaller ones where it was noticeable that they were missing. If either of them lacked the poise and control that was needed for these kind of seductive adventures, things would all go to hell quickly. Bess had never had this innate need to be with someone at nearly all hours, all times of the day but she could not pull herself away from Drystan and only did when absolutely necessary and...it was very hard when her husband was, to put it simply, just as possessive as she was.

When she let out a breath, Bess was surprised that it was a shuddering one. She blinked slowly up at Drystan, knowing that she was always the first to lose her composure when it came to this kind of fun. She smiled, pushing close to him to mimic a slow dance, but putting pressure in all the necessary and telling places.

"Wouldn't want to go too far from the party," she said lowly. The excitement (or fear?) of getting caught always heightened the experience, and she was feeling a bit like causing trouble, especially when the Kestrels were involved in the evening.
