Kristen and Open
Kristen was doing her best to branch out a bit this year. Things were going pretty well actually. She had a wonderful girlfriend, even if she couldn't touch her. She was starting to build a little bit of self confidence that perhaps she wasn't as ugly as she always feared. She was in her advanced year and decided it was time to start to have a little bit of fun. She even stopped worrying so much about there being alcohol at parties and just accepted that, yes, there certainly was and it was probably in everything. Nothing too terrible had happened any of the times she had alcohol, so there was no need to worry, right?
She made her way down to the party. It was a lovely fall evening, the sun was quickly going down, which was perfect for her. She did like being out during the day, but the sun always made her feel so exhausted and drained. Banes of being a vampire, after all.
She was wearing a cute new outfit, a short plaid skirt, a black top, under a cream colored cardigan and a pair of black boot shoes. She wore her hair down, rather than in pigtails. She was liking to branch out and do things other than pigtails all the time. She wore some light makeup, some foundation just slightly darker than her normal complexion. She didn't want it to look like she was wearing make-up, but didn't want her skin to be quite so pale. She also had some light blush, mascara and eye shadow on. Again, nothing too flashy or to draw attention.
She made her way to the refreshment table to get a drink. She took a sip and just as she was expecting, felt the slight burn of the alcohol.
