All together unconcerned with the dread aura about them, Devi retained that warm and friendly smile as they walked and talked along the way back towards Hayley's room. She seemed a nice enough girl, and she felt bad that it was likely her providence made it rather difficult to make friends, which would explain why she was keen on the one she had. Nevertheless, she was not one to be deterred and had already decided that this one was also a friend much like her two roommates. One of whom appeared to be catching on just slightly to why she personally wanted to go to the dance.

Her attention snapped back away from idle thoughts and to the present as Alena stopped them at a door, entirely uncertain if this was the correct one or not. "[color=00a651]Yes, please do take your time and do not rush on our account.[/color]" Devi leaned beside the taller redhead, hand still firmly in hers as they waited side by side. "[color=00a651]When you're ready, then we can see about finding your friend Saranja, and perhaps our roommate Ebbo as well.[/color]"

[color=00a651][i]"And then comes the dancing."[/i][/color] Her unspoken thought finished, along with a subtle glance upwards to see what Alena was doing. It promised to be a long night, and while she had her own intentions as to what to be doing during that time, she hoped that her friend wasn't sacrificing too much of her own night simply to indulge her. More pressing though, it seemed that perhaps she wasn't nearly as keen on the whole 'date' thing as she was, and made faces when it was mentioned. She wondered if Alena had ever been with anyone before, and that was why she seemed to tense up the way she did. Perhaps some idle conversation would help ease her nerves, small-talk always helped for her.

"[color=00a651]So, Alena.[/color]" She began, meaning to catch her attention with her soft tone first before just launching into a conversation. "[color=00a651]I don't think I've heard you talk much about your sister other than that you have one, and apparently she is quite popular over here.[/color]"
