Anne was happy to host a Christmas party at the hotel. It was a good chance to promote the hotel and mingle with her friends and local business people. And Jim. She'd invited Jim, looking forward to spending more time with him, talking and dancing the night away.

The event hall looked amazing, a huge Christmas tree was in the corner, decorated in tasteful red and white decorations. The decorations around the hall matched the tree and her staff were milling about the crowd offering drinks and canapes. Overall, she was very pleased with how things were going. Spying Jim, she headed over to him.

"Hey you," she grinned up at him, sashaying up to him. "What do you think?"

"Why thank, but I can't take all the credit, I'm not sure this would have come together quite so well if Constance weren't here," Anne smiled at him. "You look more dashing than normal," she grinned, daring to reach out and run her fingers down a lapel of his suit. The backs of her fingers brushed down his chest as she took a slight step closer. "I'm not sure I'll be able to invite you to any more black tie events. Every woman and even some of the men want to take you home with them," she grinned cheekily.

	"Well," Jim said, fwipping out his collar and winking at her. "They're all welcome to." It was true, there were a lot of attractive people to choose from. "But I can't agree. You're the one everyone is going to take home." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Anne smiled brightly at him as he charmed her, tilting her head and leaning in to him, looking up at him in adoration. "Can I call dibs on you then? Reserve you as it were? At least for a dance or two," she asked quietly. She still wasn't quite sure exactly what they were to each other yet. Wasn't quite brave enough to have that conversation either. Jim was much more experienced than her with relationships and the like, would she measure up to women he had been with in the past? Be enough?

Maybe she would be brave enough or tipsy enough to ask those questions later, but for now she was more than happy to just be with him. "Thank you for coming, I'm really happy to have you here," she told him genuinely, resting her palm on his chest and smiling.

	"Glad to be here. You get a dance or two. Or three." There was probably some miscommunication going on, Anne was definitely not the only person getting his attention and affection. Jim took her hand and gave her knuckles a kiss. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Sounds great," Anne grinned. "Shall we dance, monsieur?" she asked, giving him a little curtsy as he kissed her knuckles. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Lets." Jim swept his arm out, guiding her to the dance floor. It wasn't a grand ball, but it wasn't a club either. So he had to be careful how he danced. (Reply to this) (Parent)
