Gone To Waste In Due Time ** (MARIA)

Daryl had gotten away from his mother and father for a few moments to go and stand by the refreshment table. He had spoken to Ondina already, and was awaiting to see if there would be any crying by the drinks. That's usually where the girls went, away from all the boys to talk. Or to the bathroom. That was a definite, girls always went to the bathroom in groups. He had come to the Ball by himself, which Daryl was completely okay with. There were many handfuls of girls here that he had already slept with, and Daryl is trying to broaden his horizons of other girls.

He leaned up against the wall, a small cup in his hand filled with butterbeer. He looked right and left, only seeing a couple of people around. Ondina was speaking with...some older blond woman. A very attractive blond woman. Daryl rose an eyebrow. He might be able to get that too, if he didn't see the shining ring on her finger. Darn. Taking a sip, he also saw his sister, now speaking with his father. He'd have to make a note to himself to dance with her later, he didn't want her to feel left out.

Maria had finally gotten her 'fill' of Viola, and let her fellow Durmstrang student finally go do what they wanted. Maria hadn't planned on spending the whole night with Viola, after all. Not only that, towards the end she had started to get a little huffy about Viola not accepting all of her advances the way she wanted. YEs, that was the trait that attracted Maria, but it could be annoying at times. Especially when Maria wasn't in much of a mood for a chase. No, she'd rather have someone more receptive to all of her advances. And that was when she spotted exactly that someone.

It was a Gryffindor boy. They'd met briefly before. Long enough to know that he was a womanizer. Not enough to know his name. Hell, he didn't even know hers. She'd refused to tell him until he 'earned it'. Maybe tonight she'd finally give him a chance to do exactly that. A Beauxbaton boy had just stepped into her path, asking if she wanted to dance, but she waved him off with a coy smile. "Maybe later." She answered as she stepped around him. The smile grew as she finally approached the Gryffindor boy against the wall. "It's too early to be over here by yourself, darling." Was her sultry and sweet greeting as she took the spot against the wall next to him.

His thoughts of his sister and parents were quickly interrupted by a familiar face. His eyes narrowed and as he thought, Daryl remembered her. From Lily's dance party a few weeks prior. Though...he never got her name. For what reason, he couldn't remember. All he remembered was her, Margaux and Cordelia for a small point of it all. "I don't think so, I was over here waiting for a perfect moment, and here you are." Daryl winked at her, downing the glass he had just been drinking. "May I ask your name? I don't recall you ever telling me before."

[Deleted]

Maria laughed softly at his initial response. Waiting for the perfect moment. Of course. He was trying to find a target. Maria knew absolutely nothing about this Gryffindor boy but she had a sneaking suspicion that he was like her and Margaux. "The perfect moment or the perfect distraction?" she asked teasingly. She'd be fine considered as either.

As he asked for her name she smirked. Stepping forward, she delicately took the glass from his hands and set it on the nearby table before stepping up to him again. Stopping just in front of him she smirked. "I don't think you've earned my name yet. But I might change my mind if you dance with me."

The sound of her laugh gave him an unusual feeling in the pit of his stomach, and his eyes lowered at her, a smirk appearing on his face. "You could call it a perfect moment or a perfect distraction. Although...I'd call it more of a distraction." Daryl's tone of voice was low and silky as he looked this girl up and down, taking all of her in.

This girl took his glass and Daryl's eyebrow rose, and he looked at her with longing. She was interesting, that was for sure. Then she walked close to him and he took a small breath, smirking once more. "Oh trust me, I'll earn it, Sundar." Daryl bent down at the waist, one hand behind his back, the other being held out to her. "Dance with me?"

[Deleted]

Oh, that was the kind of answer Maria liked to here. "You're in luck then. I'm great a distractions." Maria's own voice matched his own, smooth as butter but just low enough to hint at much more. She liked the way his eyes moved, looking her up and down, appreciating her figure. sure, part of it was probably the Veela charm affecting him, but he seemed like the type to know when something was being offered to him and wouldn't pass it up.

Maria smiled widely as he spoke, adding a single word in a different language at the end. "You speak Hindu?" She asked. She herself didn't speak it, but she recognized it. "Well aren't you interesting..." She mused, her smile softening. Such a gentleman too! Immediately Maria took that offered hand. "Of course." She agreed.

Daryl's eyebrow rose. "I'd love for you to be my distraction, Miss." Her tone of voice got him hooked. She seemed just as interested as he did, and Daryl knew tonight would be a fun night. This girl was proving that, and Daryl was now convinced in the young lady in front of him.

She seemed to caught on to his Hindu, and Daryl's smirk became wider. So this girl could also speak different languages, he should've figured. She was from Durmstrang, and her accent was quite captivating. "I do...thank you for the compliment." He spoke slowly, enunciating all of the words clearly. As he looked up at her when she took his hand, he stood up straight, pulling her close to him, their entire fronts touching. "Let's dance."

[Deleted]

Maria smirked widely as he answered, saying he'd loved for her to be his distraction. Good, that was the sort of answer she wanted to hear. Obviously she didn't think she'd be a distraction for long, especially considering she absolutely needed to see Margaux later.... But this Gryffindor boy would help distract her while she waited.

Now why did he speak Hindu? That was by far the most interesting thing about him right now. That wasn't the most common language spoken around here, so how had he picked it up? "You'll need to tell me more about that sometime." She suggested, making it clear that, while she was curious, she'd rather leave that bit of information for their next meeting. And most definitely there would be a next one. Being pulled up against him was a surprise, but one she welcomed, the dark haired girl leaning into him. "Come on then." she breathed, and stepped away, breaking all that physically contact and pulling him towards the dance floor by that had still in her own.

The smirk he received was good enough to him, and he smiled back. He couldn't quite remember how this girl had gotten away that one night at Lily Potter's dance party, but now that he had her here, at the Yule Ball, he'd make sure to hopefully get his fill before she got away once more. That was, if she was willing to do so. Daryl was not one to push. Anyone.

"I shall." To those who didn't know him, he just looked like any normal African American male. Though, what they did not know was that he was also Indian. Not unless he specifically told anyone who his mother was, then it was all just a guessing game. Almost immediately after he had pulled her in, she spoke breathlessly and pulled away slightly, bringing him to the dance floor. Daryl chuckled quietly, allowing her to do so. This girl was not like any other's he's been with, he could tell that straight away. She was in charge.

[Deleted]

Maria smirked. This boy, who's name she didn't know just like he didn't know hers, would be an interesting challenge. He had a predatory look in his eyes, and he'd been on the prowl when she'd found him. Exactly like Maria. So what happened when you brought two predators together? Well, Maria was very curious to find out.

On the dance floor, Maria turned back to him and stepped in close again, just as close as when he'd pulled her to him before. Flush against him as she placed the hand she'd been holding on her waist and wrapped her arms around his shoulders. Oh, he could try to pull away, or to make the distance between them more 'respectable' but there was no fun in that. Besides, he'd already made it pretty clear that he had absolutely no problem with physical contact....

Daryl was not shocked when she finally stopped walking and pulled closer, her arms around his shoulders. He smirked back at her, enjoying the sight that was in front of him. With almost every other girl he'd ever been with, Daryl took charge. But maybe for this one, he'll take a step back. She seemed like she could take him well. His left hand was on her waist, and he finally brought the other one to rest on her waist as well, holding a bit tighter than normal.

He wasn't worried about his parents right now. It wasn't a bad thing to dance with multiple girls, and his mother knew he had been coming alone anyways. And hey, at least he hadn't left with anyone yet, right? They couldn't be too angry at him for that. "So...what do I have to do to get to know your name?" Daryl had leaned in even closer if that was possible, and whispered quietly into her ear, smirking as he did so.

[Deleted]

Oh, this Gryffindor boy didn't need to be told twice. He took take a hint, and he wasn't afraid to follow through, nor was he shy about being this close to a female body. He was definitely experienced. Very experienced. Maria liked that. Inexperienced, bright eyed newcomers were fun but the more experienced ones were so irresistible. She liked it when she wasn't the only one that knew exactly what they were doing. She didn't mind how firmly he held onto her waist, in fact it only made her tighten her own arms around his shoulders as they swayed to the music.

What did he have to do? Oh, that was a good question. She also really liked the way he whispered, right into her ear. "That depends on what you want to do to earn it." She whispered back. Speaking of... "And what I have to do to earn yours." Such an interesting game this was....

Daryl chuckled. This girl was in for a treat, but he found himself thinking he was too. These foreign students were completely different from the ones at Hogwarts, and for good reasons. He hadn't expected one of them to come on so strong or so willing to do the things he was, and it was nice for a chance. A lot of the girls at his school tended to be more worried and stand offish. Daryl tilted his head slightly, "I'll do anything to earn it, anything at all..." His tone of voice was kept quiet, though he made sure she'd be able to hear him over the sound of the music.

"Hmm..." Now this might be fun. He hadn't expected that, and Daryl had also forgotten that she didn't know his name either. Not that it was a common name; he was named after his father's father, who had passed away a long time ago. He might've preferred to be called Dean such as his dad, but then he'd be a junior and that was worse than Daryl. Though, he thought he fit into it well. "I'm not so sure about that one, I might have to think a bit longer."

[Deleted]

Maria lightly brushed her fingers against the back of his neck, teasing the skin there as they continued to dance. She knew she could have fun with this boy. Plenty of fun. And at this point Maria didn't actually care if they learned each other's names. That would just be a fun game to waste the time. "Anything?" She repeated under her breath, close enough that he'd feel the breath against his ear. The song was coming to an end though, and she hadn't planned on staying with him for long, just a short distraction for both of them. She had other plans for tonight and she wasn't going to change them. "How about we think about it for a few days, and you come find me when you have a few.... ideas." She slowly suggested, leaving it's meaning completely open to his own interpretation. By her actions today, and at that party where they'd first met she'd made her... reputation obvious. This Gryffindor boy knew who he was messing with, and he wasn't shying away. In fact he was accepting her advances without any hesitation. The song ended and Maria leaned in to brushed her lips against his cheek. Slow, teasing at much more. Then, she pulled away, breaking physical contact between them. "Until then, fofinho, I hope you'll miss me."
