[color=ff6363][b]"Forgot all about that, honestly."[/b][/color] She sat her plate down then picked up the bag of ice with ease and walked over towards the cooler with it. She dropped the bag of ice to crumble it up a bit then opened the cooler nearby, dumping the whole bag in. She tossed the bag in the trash can she had outside then smacked her hands together with a breath. Vanessa turned heel and went back over to where Dominic was, just in time to clearly hear his question. [color=ff6363][b]"Eh, I didn't make it. I stole it all from the homeless shelter."[/b][/color] She chuckled while picking up her plate then looked at him. [color=ff6363][b]"Dominic, I am kidding."[/b][/color] She bit her bottom lip then mentally gave herself a palm to the face. [color=ff6363][b]"Actually, it took me at least five hours. I should've called my grandmother over but she is a bit too festive, you know."[/b][/color] That was fact. She could see her grandmother now wearing her usual red, white and blue attire and the thought just made her laugh. She loved her grandmother style and all but on the Fourth of July, she hated the clothes she wore. [color=ff6363][b]"So, are you..."[/b][/color] She was interrupted by Seamus as she smiled towards him even though he didn't greet her. She liked Seamus and adored him more when he got together with John. [color=ff6363][b]"So, are you going to continue to be rude towards me? The hostess? I could kick you out, you know."[/b][/color] Vanessa spoke seriously but then smiled while walking up towards Seamus, giving him a small hug then breaking it. [color=ff6363][b]"So, how have you been, stud?"[/b][/color] She spoke towards Seamus while walking over towards the table, grabbing another plate and setting it up with various things. Vanessa walked over towards Seamus and handed it to him with a smile. She heard her phone buzz on the table then walked over to it, picking it up and reading the text from John. She didn't bother replying since her and him wasn't really that close though she still cared for him, for Seamus' sake. [color=ff6363][b]"So, Seamus, you're not too drunk yet, are you?"[/b][/color] She asked with a slight smirk then took a bite out of her hamburger, making a small sound to herself. [color=ff6363][b]"Mmm."[/b][/color] She then stared at Dominic and Seamus. [color=ff6363][b]"So, let's go inside and sit. Shall we?"[/b][/color] She walked past them towards her living area and sat down on a two seated couch.
