Alex D & Beth
Beth was getting more and more used to the gatherings here. Back home, being around a lot of people had made her nervous...it always seemed to end bad, one way or another. But here...well, it seemed that people just enjoyed each other's company, and that was a good thing. Beth liked it a lot, and her normal, social self was starting to re-emerge.
Smiling, and wearing a pink sundress that really flattered her, she approached the nearest person.
"Hi," she smiled, and offered her hand. "I'm Beth."
