Waving her free had at his quip about the smiling, Febs could only shake her head a giggle quietly. She adjusted to the new position easily, tucking herself in beside him better, draping one leg over his carefully. After having to avoid touching him all evening, it was all she wanted to do now, "Oh Love, it is definitely not you I'm embarrassed of. My family is... something." It was quite the opposite in fact, her family was well, they could be loud and very intrusive and incredibly loving, but that meant that were always all over one another and it could sometimes lead to inappropriate questions and discussions. It wasn't something she overly enjoyed when bringing somebody new home and before this it had simply been her friends! It would happen eventually, maybe in small increments, parents first, then the rest.

Febs winced a little, shrugging down sheepishly at his question of the ball. "My friend Dolly Diggory, from school. I um," She'd accepted on a whim, the day after their last big argument, when she thought that had been the end of them. It had been a poor decision after the crash, she knew that, but backing out now would be rude. "I can cancel if you really want me to, but it would look awfully rude when it's a week away." While she had no intention of partaking in the theme of the night, quite a few of her friends were going and she was actually looking forward to seeing them. "Several of my friends are going..." Febs turned hesitant brown eyes on him, she really would cancel if he wanted her to, but she did want to go.
