This whole party thing was kind of a big deal for Alex. It was the first time since she'd become a vampire that she'd really been around so many people at once willingly. And she was nervous. It probably showed. When she'd been human she'd been able to put on the air of being Alexandra Udinov at a party for all to see much easier than she could now. As a vampire, all of her emotions had become heightened, and that kind of made her a hot mess. So seeing how she handled this party could be a big step for her. She didn't drink, not alcohol anyway and she wasn't about to just be sipping a blood bag in front of all these people. But she did have a water bottle and she was sitting in one of the lounge chairs. She couldn't even remember the last time she'd been swimming, but she wasn't so sure she wanted to do it now. She did have a suit on just in case, but she was wearing a cover up over it, not wanting to feel so exposed. All things considered, she thought she was doing pretty well at the moment. But she hadn't exactly made an effort to talk to anyone yet, either. People seemed to be having fun, and Alex was glad for that. They deserved a bit of fun after...everything. |
