[indent][indent][color=d40000]“Please, the pleasure of meeting you all is mine. Ophelia hasn’t told me too much about you all, but I assure you, nothing negative was said.”[/color] Anna noticed the twitch, but she barely had time to glance over her shoulder to check in the direction of the twitch. It did not look good, but she thought it was not her place to comment on.

[i]Just keep smiling.[/i]

[color=6c9b8f]“I like to think I haven’t given Phe any reason to say something negative,”[/color] Analise laughed. [color=6c9b8f]“It seems like she doesn’t like to talk about the people in her life.”[/color] She gave Ophelia a teasing grin.

At that moment, Harvey excused himself to take a phone call. Anna stepped aside to give Harvey enough space to leave, leaving just Christian, Delilah, Ophelia and Anna remaining beside the column. With Harvey gone, Anna pounced.

[color=6c9b8f]“If I had known you already had your eyes set on someone I wouldn’t have been so pushy about you going on a date with Mason from theatre class!”[/color] It sounded like Anna was chiding Ophelia, and Anna realised it a little too late. She clicked her tongue, shaking her head. [color=6c9b8f]“No worries, I really do think you and Harvey look super cute together— did you [i]see[/i] the way he looked at you? He seems like such a prince!”[/color]

Ophelia sighed inwardly at the mere mention of Anna’s prior attempt at matchmaking. Ophelia didn’t want to seem [i]too[/i] condescending, but she couldn’t really muster much respect for a guy following theatre class of all things. For a moment she thought of her father, and how the guy would likely never see the light of day ever again for touching his daughter when he had so little going for him. Harvey, on the other hand, had a lot more charm to him, not to mention an actual brain. A lot of guys seemed to lack this as of late.

Ophie made a dismissive gesture at her friend’s comment. [color=#a5bddc]”I appreciate your attempts. Truly.”[/color] She said, though it was a half-truth. She did appreciate her efforts, but the quality of her matches tended to be...wanting. [color=#a5bddc]”Harvery’s nice, definitely.”[/color] She admitted. [color=#a5bddc]”But it is a first date, so you know… we’ll see how things go.”[/color] 

She then grinned at Anna [color=#a5bddc]”What about your prince? Have you already found one?”[/color] She teased.

Anna pouted. [color=6c9b8f]”My prince is waiting at home, probably in my bed with no care in the world.”[/color] It was too bad she could not bring Winston to the party. In all seriousness, Anna was yet to find someone she [i]truly[/i] cared about, someone to sweep her off her feet like an actual prince from a Disney movie. But it was fine, it just meant she could devote her time to helping others finding their prince (or princess!) charming.

[color=#a5bddc]”Winston is a pretty dashing prince, I’d say.”[/color] She said with a soft chuckle before putting her hand on Anna’s shoulder. [color=#a5bddc]”Don’t let it bother you. I know, how about we dance together for a bit later? I’m sure Harvey can miss me for a few minutes.”[/color] She winked. [color=#a5bddc]”How about it?”[/color]

Anna was not the type to turn down an offer to dance. She nodded, giving Ophie a funny look. [color=6c9b8f]"As long as it doesn't make Harvey jealous."[/color] Anna wiped the funny look off her face, replacing it with a warm smile. [color=6c9b8f]"But really... I'm seriously rooting for you two. I really hope everything goes well for you guys."[/color]

Ophelia gave Anna an appreciative look.

Anna quickly hushed herself as Harvey rejoined the group, shaking her head with an innocent look on her face, but the grin on her face betrayed what joy she was feeling for her friends. Everything was going so well for everybody! When Harvey asked if he missed anything, Anna responded. [color=6c9b8f]“Absolutely nothing! Oh, I’m getting a little thirsty from all this talking… maybe I should-”[/color] Analise was interrupted as she felt somebody walk into her, almost causing somebody to tumble to the floor.

You could say Anna almost freaked out.

Analise waved off the brunette’s apology and hurriedly interjected her own. [color=6c9b8f] “O-oh my god, I’m so sorry!”[/color] She was aware that it was actually the brunette that had walked into [i]her[/i] but it was very likely Anna’s fault for being so excited over Harvey and Ophelia in the first place. She could almost hear Benji telling her to cut down on the sugar.

As the brunette introduced herself as Ava, Anna began noticing a few similarities between Ava and the confident stranger from earlier that evening. Were they related, or was Anna officially seeing things? Maybe it really was time to cut down on that sugar… [color=6c9b8f]“I hope you are okay, Ava.”[/color] Anna chewed on her lower lip worriedly before realising she hadn't introduced herself or her group of friends.

[color=6c9b8f]"My name is Analise Arnette, but Anna will do fine."[/color] Pointing at Ophelia first, she began listing the people in the group one by one. [color=6c9b8f]"This is Ophelia Bergman, Harvey Rayner, Delilah Duclerc and Christian Maxwell."[/color] She ended it with a smile. [color=6c9b8f]"It's a pleasure to meet you, Ava!"[/color]
