As Levana stood with Bliss and Darius near the refreshment table, she heard footsteps. Well there's not much conversation going on here. She decided that maybe she should give people some food recommendations. She turned around and then suddenly froze.

"GAH!!" Levana flailed back a bit and then quickly bit her tongue. A pale-looking boy dressed in white stood there. Levana rapidly returned to her normal stand and made an apologetic expression. ... I can't say that I thought he was a ghost just now, that would be rude... She abruptly slapped his shoulder. "There was a spider on your shoulder!" She forced a laugh and smiled awkwardly.

Sonja jumped at the sudden shout, startled out of his thoughts by it. The sudden slap also jolted him, but he sighed in relief when she explained about the 'spider'. "Oh, thank you for getting that. I'm sorry that it startled you." As he stood there, though, he couldn't help but wonder when the spider could have gotten there. Perhaps it fell from the ceiling...

Jacqueline was quiet a moment. "I believe they care. This arrangement is so that your livelihood is secure. It may not be ideal but I believe they care." The young woman spoke from experience. She never felt a deep attraction for her parents but she understood many views of life and could see why they did the things they did. "The best thing you can do is apologize. Nothing more. Nothing less."


"Easy for you to say, you haven't had to deal with them for seventeen years," Jeffery wasn't really happy about the advice he had received. He had intended on not apologizing at all.

"And you haven't had to live my life." Jacqueline said with a coy smile. "But in the end you do as you see fit. Enjoy the rest of your evening, sir." She nodded and curtsied before walking away. She fetched herself another flute of champagne and sipped at it as she swayed in place to the music.

Levana couldn't help but hold in her laughter after realizing how the boy reacted. He actually bought it! She couldn't really hold it in any more and began laughing out loud. "I'm-pffft-sorry!" She laughed mid-sentence after seeing the slightly confused look on his face. "Ow my sides," Levana grabbed her waist and wiped the tears that formed around her eyes.

Once she was situated again, Levana regained her posture and brushed down any wrinkles on her dress. "Ahem, I sincerely apologize for my disrespectful behaviour just now. I assure you, I wasn't laughing at you," she lied bluntly and smiled fairly normally. "Uh, I'm Levana, by the way," she extended a hand.

Sonja just stared as the girl in front of him started laughing. What did I do? Was I making a weird face? Darn it, I thought I had stopped doing that while thinking in public... At least she just seemed to find it funny, though. It was better to make people laugh than worry, right? When she calmed down and introduced herself, he still felt a bit confused, but smiled all the same. "It's fine, really. Whatever it was, it must have been pretty funny." He accepted her hand and shook it gently. "My name's Sonja. I know what it sounds like, but, ah...never mind that, actually."

She grinned. "Is that my new nickname?" The redhead smiled softly. "Anyway, as long as we're here we could go over and grab something to eat. If that's okay with you." She didn't want to push someone into something they didn't want to do. Faeya hated when her parents did it to her, so she wasn't going to do it herself.


Edward looked around seeing more people around them and even more were coming to this party thing or whatever it was. He wasn't a big party fan, but he managed to not get bored, especially with such a beautiful being in front of him! "Hehe. Yeah.... I like that nickname, beautiful." He smiled showing his pearly white teeth. "And uh... Sure." He said getting closer to her and giving her his arm, so they could lock arms with eachother. "Princess?" Edward said with such a manly and prince voice! But it came out a bit nervous and not much confidence.

Blissvia yawned and noticed her aunt leaving with a glare on her face and she motioned for bliss to follow her so she said "Excuse me, im wanted" she quickly walked to her aunt "I told you not to wear that dress! you stubborn, foolish girl" she scolded and gave bliss another glare "OH so you want me to take it off?" bliss retorted and began to un zip it in the back showing anyone behind her, her bright red and yellow bra straps "NOOO you keep your clothes on you little whore!" her aunt said in a hushed tone and turned bliss around and zipped up the back of her dress and gave her a swat on the behind. "Your husband will never be bored with you" she said and shook her head as she left. bliss sighed and watched her leave "I love you to..." she whispered and went back to Darius.

Levana tilted her head curiously at Sonja's unfinished sentence. "Huh? What does it sound like?" She asked and thought he probably avoided finishing for a reason, so she brushed it off. "Well, either way, it's nice to meet you Sonja." Levana flashed a smile.

However, she was pondering on the name Sonja. Sonja... Sonja... Why do I feel like I've heard that name somewhere? After an unsuccessful attempt at remembering, Levana shrugged and guessed it probably wasn't important anyway.

"It's nothing. I'm pleased to meet you, too." He felt his face heat up and he looked away. He had often had trouble with his name in the past, and really just didn't want another round of teasing. A few times, he had even confused people when they knew his name before his face. It's not a girly name, it's not! It's perfectly normal for boys in my family, so it's not my fault!

Fearful that he might have been making a weird face again at this point, he attempted to push the thoughts to the back of his mind and returned his attention to Levana. "Well, ah... Are you enjoying the event so far?"

"I am honored that you feel I am good enough to be with you." He smiled a rehearsed smile that his parent made sure he had down.


Karah smiled back and looked around, she could others mingling and having a good time. She was sort of un sure on how to conduct herself with the man next to her. "I am Karah by the way, would you like to maybe gravitate towards the buffet? I am getting a little hungry..."

Levana knew he was avoiding a certain subject, but decided it'd be best not to be nosy. She shrugged at Sonja's topic-changing question. I don't really want to lie... But I don't wanna seem like a partypooper either... Levana thought it through before responding, over thinking the simple, smalltalk.

"Yeah, it's been pretty interesting so far. Enjoyable in a different way, I guess," she answered the best she could and let out a weird laugh. "How about you? How are you liking it?" Levana kept the conversation going.

Jacqueline had been standing and enjoying the music when a duke came over, obviously overly indulged in far too much wine. He was a tall fellow and slightly portly. He had salt and pepper hair and a tweed, brown suit and red tie. His left hand held a glass a wine which he handed off to a passes servant.
"Hahah! So you much be the lovely Jacqueline. You're just as lovely as your parent's said. My, my, were I a few years younger I'd be at this ball for your hand, my dear." He picked up her hand and kissed the back. "You may call me Sir Bryant."
"It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Sir Bryant. And to what do I owe the honor?" Jacqueline said with a calm smile.
"Why a dance of course! It would be an honor for me if you could grace me with that lovely body of yours." Sir Bryant laughed then laughed harder, seeing as how that could be taken the wrong way. He revised himself. "A dance, love, join me in a dance." Though he did not wait for an answer as he pulled her onto the already crowded dance floor.
It was all Jacqueline could do to keep the disgust off her face and her amused smile in place. The man held her too tight and far to close to her liking and he wreaked of alcohol.
"Such a lovely little flower, with your deep brown hair." The duke cooed as he fondly stroked her locks on her forehead.
I feel sick. I wish this song would end. His hands are sweaty and sticky. Crap! Smile! I hope I'm smiling...

"It's not something I'm used to, but I agree that it has been interesting so far." Truthfully, he wasn't sure how he felt about the whole affair, but it hadn't been entirely horrible yet. Then again, it hadn't been exactly fantastic, either. He almost frowned as he thought back to his previous meeting. How could he have messed it up so quickly? He didn't even know.

"I don't exactly know what this event is even for, now that I think of it. I wasn't given much information before I arrived here, you see." He actually did frown a bit when he realized that he didn't even know something important like that. That probably wasn't a good thing, was it?

Levana observed Sonja's altering facial expressions between each of his replies. She let out a sigh, and found an area to trail her eyes off to, making sure no one was in the way to think she was staring at them. "Well, if anything, I'd think you were here for the same reason as me. I was thinking that was why everyone was here in the first place." Levana looked back toward Sonja, remembering how her mother taught her it was rude to look away while speaking to someone. "Hmm," she crossed her arms, "If you're here for the same reason, then it must suck that your family didn't inform you ahead of time." She realized the way she was talking must've seemed confusing. "Uh, sorry for beating around the bush, but I was told that this event was for engaged couples who've had their marriages arranged to meet. My parents still haven't introduced me to my fiance. They sorta just left me alone to mingle while they drank wine somewhere around the ballroom. I'm pretty sure the reason you're here is the same." Levana wondered if this would've surprised Sonja, and waited to see his reaction.

"Oh."

Sonja wasn't sure what to do in response to this new information. Engaged couples? They were supposed to meet...their arranged future spouses?
...Why exactly hadn't he been told of any of this?!
"You mean that everyone here...is engaged to someone else here?" The shock was starting to wear off a bit, but it was quickly being replaced with panic and confusion. When had he been engaged? Who was he engaged to? Why didn't he know sooner? Was bringing him to this event his parents' way of telling him? Why on earth wouldn't they tell him themselves. He covered his mouth, looking to the floor worriedly. "And...both you and I...are engaged to someone here that we don't know..."

Overhearing Sonja and lavenia's conversation she quietly groaned, Great im engaged to someone i dont know and they hopfully dont know my full rapsheet, she twirled a small strand of her hair in her fingers waiting impationetly for someone to come over and say "Well hello beloved" Ha! what a joke no wonder her aunt had wanted her in a longer dress, to look more presentable "What a bore, im ready to meet him and leave him" she said under her breath. the short dress was finally begining to ride up so she excused her self to the ladies room and put on black leggings that had rips in them "If he dosent like me then oh well im fine by myself" she said to herself and primped up her hair and looked into the mirror making sure her ass and boobs looked good. I'd tap that

"Uh huh, that's basically it. I'll, er, give you a second to sink it in," she smiled apologetically after realizing it made him panic. He looks like he just saw a ghost or something... The thought made Levana muffle a giggle after remembering the earlier occurrence. She put on a serious face afterwards and glanced at Sonja who seemed to be lost in his thoughts somewhere. "Are you okay?" Levana asked worriedly and tapped his shoulder.

Perhaps it's a mistake? Maybe I missed something? They wouldn't seriously do that, right? Someone would have told me, right? Right? Ri--!
Sonja jumped at an unexpected tap on his shoulder, seeing Levana looking worriedly at him. "Ah, um, I-I just... I need a moment. I just...feel weird now..." He ran a hand through his hair, still wondering about everything. Unable to get anywhere with his thoughts anymore, he sighed and fixed his glasses. "Sorry, I didn't mean to cause you trouble. I think I'm fine now."

"Oh, no worries. If anyone, I was the one to cause you trouble," Levana waved her hand in front of her face. "Still, I find it strange that your family would hide this from you. Maybe they might've been afraid you'd say no? Well, no, actually I told my parents no yet it made no difference." She crossed her arms and laughed sarcastically. "Hmm, I'm not even sure where they are right now. I just wanna hurry and get this whole thing over with." A thought ran across her mind, there is no getting this over with. Marrying someone follows you pretty far. Levana sighed and shook her head. "So much for that."
