WHO: Bela & Anne
WHAT: Vacation
WHERE: Portkey to the tropics.
WHEN: During Reika's rampage.

Bela didn't have many summery sorts of clothes, but she managed an acceptable outfit. She didn't want to be weighted down, so she simply walked to the portkey with no luggage. She would stumble back to her flat if she needed clothes. Right now she needed to be free and easy and without thought.

She looked around for Anne, not sure whether they were meeting at the portkey or at the bar in Tahiti. She had her entire last pay cheque in her handbag, and she'd likely make more money during the course of the evening. Such an amount ought to get her sufficiently soused. It wasn't even that she wanted to get drunk, per se - she wanted to not think about anything. It was the quickest method.

	Bela chuckled. "That was how I used to get one night stands, you know." Maybe it was telling too much, but oh, well. "Lift a wallet, take their cash and then 'return' it. And offer to buy them a drink with their own cash." Ah, memories. Though she wasn't in the mood for a shag tonight. No, definitely not. A little flirting wouldn't hurt, though.

"That would be one way to do it," Anne agreed with a smile. Maybe she'd just sit back and watch Bela in action. After all, they were new friends. It would be interesting to see what kinds of aces the woman had up her sleeve. "You ready or... how about something different?"

A small turn of her hips and Anne's own clothing was suddenly stylish and fitting for the evening. She pondered Bela and snapped her fingers, turning her clothes into something fashionable and low-cut. "There. You're stunning."

	Bela blinked, looking down at herself - skirt, shoes, cleavage - and laughed. "It's brilliant ... thank you." Dean would have been ogling her cleavage for the entire night. She stopped herself, shaking her head resolutely to dispel the thought. "Shall we?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Oh, absolutely!" Anne threaded her arm through Bela's and practically skipped up the walk toward the bar. Letting go just before they hit the awning, she slipped the man sitting there a wink and grinned at her friend. "What is it you drink?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Anything with vodka." The other woman's good humor had to rub off a tiny bit, Bela had to admit. She arranged herself appropriately on a barstool and ordered a vodka-tonic, legs crossing. There were a few good marks nearby - a couple of businessman types on vacation with too much booze and not enough sense. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Anne followed Bela's example and perched herself rather daintily on a stool next to her. Following the other woman's line of sight, she smiled to herself. Looking at men was something, but she had to admit: When Sam wasn't a toddler, he was one of the most amazing looking men she'd ever seen.

Considering the men she'd kept company with previously? That was saying something. "Got your eye on something?"

"Not in particular." Really, she just wanted to chat one up. Reassure herself she was still able to. And why not keep her skills in form?

She did catch the eye of a man, older, but still attractive. He looked not unlike a professor of some sort; greying, but distinguished, rather than ancient. He winked at her and she went into her look-down-demurely act, knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt he would come over to chat. If she wasn't feeling so completely out of step, she'd have tried to shag him just because.
