Alicia had slept until well past noon, waking with a floo call from her mother telling her about the rumours that Rosalind Bungs had died. Ally hadn't know the woman personally, but had heard of her and her business. The wake up call had been for the best anyway as Ally had a couple of massage appointments in the afternoon.
After the appointments and a quick supper, she had enough time to head home for a quick shower and change before leaving to meet her friends. It had been too long since her last drinking night (aside from girls' night with Angie), and so much had happened. She could do with a night of forgetting about the world with some good company.
She spotted Michael and Ginny immediately and smiled, hesitating to interrupt the moment. However, when they pulled out of their hug, she felt it was all right to approach, just in time to hear mention of the world alcohol.
"So what're we having?" she asked with a smile. She reached out and hugged Ginny in greeting, but not holding it too long lest it make the poor girl uncomfortable. Ally wanted to give her support without being abvious about it.
