With Nara and Natalia beside her, Annella didn't feel the need to want to go out to find others to socialise with. It was a bad idea of course, they were to be her brother and sister in-arms, if she can't talk to [i]them[/i], who [i]can[/i] she talk to? [i]Maybe later, I suppose. We still have lunch to get through.[/i] She thought as she followed Nara and Natalia through the crowds of people, the two engrossed in their own conversation about some story they'd heard from their parents in their childhood. Annella took this time to look around; the two men beside the mask-boy still together while mask-boy seemed to have moved elsewhere. She noticed an extremely tall girl, and felt a bit self conscious. She barely touched five foot one yet that girl seemed to be taller than most boys here. 

Engrossed in her thought, she didn't realise the two had turned left in the crowd, leaving the girl to walk ahead without realising. Straight into another girl. She crashed into the black-haired girl, tumbling to the ground in surprise. She let out a grunt as her butt hit the ground, dust flying into her mouth as the black-haired girl managed to catch herself in time, turning around to look at who crashed into her.

[color=bc8dbf]"S-sorry!"[/color] Annella coughed as she attempted to get up from her embarrassing position on the ground, those that were there to witness were simply staring in silence, as the black-haired girl leaned over to give her hand to the flushed brunette. 

[color=00a99d]"S'okay, c'mon, give me your hand."[/color] Annella took her hand, the girl helping her up with a smile on her face. Annella wasn't surprised to see the girl taller than her, but was secretly glad that she wasn't one of the really tall ones. [color=00a99d]"I'm Lilith Hermia."[/color] The girl - Lilith - introduced herself with a grin that was so bright that even caught Annella off-guard.

[i]She's so... cheerful...[/i] The brunette thought to herself as she gave a weaker smile of her own, [color=bc8dbf]"Annella Hertz, I'm sorry for crashing into you there, I wasn't seeing where I was going." 
[/color]

Lilith waved off her apologies as if she were swatting flies around her, [color=00a99d]"no worries, it happens."[/color] Lilith said, unconcerned. [color=00a99d]"Are [i]you[/i] okay though? You looked like you had a bad fall there."[/color]

[color=bc8dbf]"Um, no, I'm fine. I think? Yes, I am. Fine that is, I'm fine."[/color] Annella's reddened cheeks flushed darker as she babbled. 

[i]Great, you're going to scare off someone with the way you're so jumpy and nervous all the time![/i] She cursed herself.
