Adela crossed the club to the bar quickly, sitting at the far left on a bar stool, legs spread wide enough for her left hand to grip the seat. She looked to the bartender, giving him a cold stare before sighing, movuing her right hand to her temple, rubbing gently in circles.
"A butterbeer, with a touch of Firewhiskey if you could." She said. Apparently she looked seventeen or looked absolutely horrible because he went and got her drink, setting it in front of her. She smiled at him, thanking him without speaking. She took a long drink before setting the large glass back on the counter. She closed her eyes as the liquid slid down her throat, the light mix of the firewhiskey creating a slight burning sensation tingling the back of her throat. She smiled, leaning back in her barstool. She took another long drink, this one slower. So, why was the quiet, good-girl Adela in the middle of Shaded Nights drinking? Perhaps it was the piece of parchment in her back pocket. A letter. From Adrian. The thought of the letter made the smile on Adela's face disappear, a frown showing up instead. She set the drink down, shifting so she could pull the letter from her pocket. She unfolded it, reading it.
Dear Adela,
Alejandra is sick. Cancer. I thought we owed it to you to tell you, despite how we have grown apart. I don't know what else to tell you...perhaps you could come and see her? I'm sure she'd like that...but I suppose she'd understand if you didn't.
Adrian.
Adela sighed, lifting her drink once more, the letter placed in front of her. What was she suppose to do? She couldn't drop out...maybe the headmistress would let her off for a while...She nodded. Maybe. But for now, she could drink her sorrows away.

"You know, drinking the pain...just causes more." a voice said from a few barstools away. It was almost unimaginable that it came from the girl with the long strawberry blonde curls, she wasn't looking at the girl nearly two years younger then herself, but at the decorative bottles of booze on the wall across from them. Finally her brown gaze shifted to look at the girl, holding a apple martini to her lips, the edge dipped in candy cane shavings. Licking her lips she swivled her chair around so that she was facing the other girl, her long legs crossed at the ankle where black ankle boots were on her feet, white shorts with black leggings under, then a loose black shirt.
She tossed her curls over her shoulder to get them out of her face, and Ashlei smiled softly. "Trust me. I ended up in the backroom a few weeks ago because of drinking my pain, with even more pain." She sighed then and looked slightly taken aback at herself. "Im sorry, that was rude of me. I shouldn't have said anything. Its the alcohol, I think." she looked confused for a moment. It wasn't like Ashlei to be so airheaded, she was one of the smartest girls in seventh year, but then again...she had about five candy apple cane martinis. They were so good though, she had to blame that naughty boy Cisco for this. She glared slightly across the room at the slender asian boy dancing with a mosh of other people on the dancefloor. Then said to the girl, looking for some company, "I'm Ashlei. You go to Bauxbatons right?"
O.o.c// Hope you didn't mind. Need to roleplay Ash a bit more. hehe. Cisco might get in here too.

Adela sighed, nodding at the other girl's comment. She turned her head and stared at her a moment before speaking, "I know...But it works for a while." She gave a small half-smile, looking quickly to the letter. She waited a moment as the other girl spoke again.
"What happened?" She asked the question before she thought about how horrible what had happened could have been, and if the girl even wanted to share with her. Embarassed, Adela's dark brown eyes moved to the floor.
"Sorry about that, I didn't think before I spoke. As for Beauxbatons, yes, I'm a sixth year Intermise." She said, and realized only seconds later she'd left out her name and quickly added, "My name's Adela." She blushed furiously, cursing the alcohol, the girl was easily affected by it.
OoC|| I don't mind. ^^ I was hoping someone would come along and talk to my little 'Dela. -Pets Dela-

Ashlei nodded, smiling widely to the fellow Intermise. "I am seventh year Intermise, I thought I saw you in our common room once." she said, licking off a few peices of candy cane off the rim of the martini glass. Suddenly two slender hands were wrapped around her waist and she turned her head to see a set of almond shaped eyes and a rather impish grin. "Cisco, whats up?" she said, smiling to the slender asian boy. He pulled himself up and sat on the bit of bar space between the two girls, turning to the one he did not know.
Cisco grinned at her before speaking in his japanese accented english, "Hi, Im Cisco." he stuck his long slender fingered hand out to her, alcohol pronounced like a perfume around him, along with a faint suggestion of skunk (drug). He saw what the other girl was drinking and tsked his tongue, "You s-silllyyyy grill, save home of this unstead." he said, his vocals slurred and clearly spelling out that he was not only drunk but high also. He looked to the bartender and whispered in their ear, they came back with two apple martini's with candy cane peices flecked along the rim. He put one in front of Adela with a smile, then took a drink out of his.
Ash fought down giggles as she watched Cisco, he was normally quite a quiet boy...unless he was partying, drinking and clubbing. Then he was like his cousin Gaara is, bubbly and hyperactive. Both asian boys were fun to hang around with, sometimes she preferred Gaara though. After all, he didn't get smashed drunk and stoned...and often leaving with a girl attached to his hip, like Cisco always seemed to.

Adela smiled at the Asian boy, looking to the new drink in front of her. She lifted it, drinking from it before licking a few pieces of candy cane up.
"Shouldn't give me too much or who knows what may happen." She said, then grinned at Cisco, "I'm Adela." She looked to Ashlei and smiled.
"Yeah, I think I've seen you in there too. I've been busy with homework though, so who knows?" She said. Adela, having finished her butterbeer/firewhiskey and had one long drink from her martini had a small buzz in the back of her head. |
