Victoria hered the sound of the engine in the courtyard out front easily though the area they where in faced towards the gardens, large roofs of canves and so now covered the majority as Siobhan art show was so large. They had decided to use the garden after all. Heading to her office, well she had a link set up to all the cameras and could watch all the entrances to see whom it was had the nice car. Did not takw long to see a bright orange lambo... But the people walking out of it where her two favourite people... Paige, and Siobhan... Both of em just like that awful wensday what felt like a age ago. Not that they stood out bar the car, dressed... Nice, red, royal blue... And more complicated when she had told Marilania what her research had found. She arrested Bob. Siobhan was dating Joel, and Milo according to insulation was dating Paige? Add Marinalia deciding to fall for Xia, life definitely would not be boring tonight for sure. 

Gah... What kinda rom com over complexity was that? 

Closing the door, luckily it was rather quiet after that, she dialed Ethan, remembering the number off by heart as since the intrest at work and all, she left that one a alittle less obvious, not out of shame but caution. How would she handle the art event? After...  That was raiser... Though ernough people to distract long as not a sore thumb. If a few worked it out, vwell that could be dealt with when it came around. Pushing call..[i][color=6ecff6]"Hey Ethan, my dark and exciting friend. Turns out Siobhan... The artist dating Joel Nicolsi is here... But now she brought the woman who dating my ex, and to top it all off I cannot keep my dislike as I suspect she one who... Helped bring the filth who hurt my sister in. " [/color][/i] somewhat ranting abit, Victoria calmed down abit, and thanks to a alittle advice worked out how to settle her mental mess, cold logic was not working that night. [i][color=6ecff6]" would not say no to a alittle stress release after if yous get my gist... Oh come on, we both know we fucked up people, why I like you ... Vodka disagreed, and its far more fun... See you soon, my grey Prince. "[/color][/i] teasing a alittle, there relationship made no real sense at times hut it worked... And they both where somewhat darker and a alittle... Intense at times. Grey, well not prince charming like Marinalia joked but not black, both there lived where shades of grey. 

Marinalia was looking a alittle nervous talking to Maria, probbly about the whole date thing more than event. she was almost regretting it, then thought back to swan songs, Xia had made her happier and let her face her fears, even performing on stage though her shaking hand never left Xia,s for a while after. Sol had thrown her one good chance and ruined it, well not let it happen a second. [i][color=bc8dbf]"You look Gorgeous, so relax. I know... It's.. Just be natural. You said yourself your happy with her, so enjoy it, forget about the guests. And if he turns up... We cross that bridge later. " [/color][/i] A short hug from Marinalia before Maria left, well she was right, course she was it was mum, and a late night call to Marla last night. [i][color=f6989d]"Thanks, but I get my looks from you, so take some of the compliment. Yeah, I never had chance to worry before, it was spontaneous or well, just together. Siobhan will have a suprise... Serves her right. 8am is not a Saturday friendly work start. "[/color][/i] happy, and offering Maria a hand up as she wnated some more wine first, her long backless white down showing a enviable figure with a high split of well toned and tanned leg. Waving them off she waited to know if she meeting Xia upstairs or down. Though hopefully, she might stop over, she might need her help getting to sleep of it went bad down there.


... 


Heading down the curving marble stairs, Victoria and Maria left a still nervous, but more reassured Marinalia to wait for her date, though the team switch had Suprised them both, Marlin was ever so slowly returning to her old self, a fact that had worried Maria seeing her in a shell of her own making. With a click of expensive red soled heals and black dress glittering Maria looked very much elegant, longer and suited her age much as she disliked being seen as old.

Victoria gave a quiet whisper of [i][color=6ecff6]"so not dating " [/color][/i] she recognised the description from Marinalia talking about how some couple had been nudging but not ernough to leave Port. She did have a cute dress on. Oh it was th guy who tried to hot on her at nightclub... Must have a thing for petite ladies... Giving them a wave, she recognised them both but left the couple be before reaching the main floor. [i][color=6ecff6]"Drinks? Ethan works to his own schedule. He be here." [/color][/i] she apecpted he was, well him. They both could be a alittle selfish? Determined? Victoria was not sure what word fit. Though feeling smaller next to Maria in heals that would be nothing vs the main bar.

The couple Marinalia would definitely reconise, though from the description of events, she had been pretty harsh on the guy, a brief wave in passing interrupting.. Nope. They needed to set sail. She did wonder if Marcus would reconise the slightly gothic lady, now dressed up in a moder blue cocktail dress and so. 

And because Victoria had upset the fates or so she thought that momment, two very tall women where waiting, one blonde and a red head, both dressed up and very tall... Damned heals. Maria seemed to take it in her stride though, far more used to such situations. Noticing the unknown woman, she seemed fierce and seemed to get on with the red headed artist. [i][color=bc8dbf]"Congratulations on a excellent event, Alexandria was not joking when she said she could peform miracles nore about dressing excellently. 

And, i quite enjoyed Marla's addition, if only I was my daughters age and single... Courgette Martini please Barman. Dr Maria Olympus." [/color][/i] a twist, she ordered a rather less famous cousin to the classic, a upper class and rather gentle English accent for the present. Apart from the suprising and beutetful gold eyes, it was obvious whom was her daughter. The glittering ring on her certain finger, diamonds definitely ran in the family and all the women had at least one signiture diamond peice.

 Victoria mentally shook her head at how tall Siobhan was, Paige, Alexandria, jeez. They definitely did not have height issues. The "man eating harpy Sucubus" masked her previous emotions and looked round looking how they had do rapidly changed her home and built the large tempaory extension, and brought everything together in a matter of days. Knowing what she did, she was not sure how to react to round Paige, well suspected anyway. It add one more peice to her puzzle of what was going on in Sol city. Luckily being tiny, she could evade there gaze slightly. Her accent retained it's pretty much permanent Russian twinge. [i][color=6ecff6]"Rasberry gin and tonic please, with ice 

And the men where quite handsome Maria. Don t worry, I'm just waiting for my date tonight. " [/color][/i] Looking back, she hoped Ethan would arrive soon, and being well... Ethan no doubt he had the best tickets. As she turned back the blood red Ruby necklace and nice, but still costume jewellery bracelet of red and gold contrasted with the ice blue diamond on her finger. Her blue dress did suit her, the darker tones worker with pale skin and contrasting deep black hair. 

Wondering of Milo or Joel would turn up... That could get... Awkward potentially. Though Xia might throw them for a loop for a few minutes. Though it was her home, so that gave her abit of a feeling of confidence about the situations presently. [i][color=6ecff6]"fashionablely late I'm betting"[/color][/i] saying that very quietly to herself, she never planned to walk into the worlds most awkward bar scenario with. A slightly wobble, fractional but Maria was alot more intune with Victoria than the others and steadied her without making too obvious pretending to pull her over for a quiet word. Well not but it was a handy cover none the less. [i][color=bc8dbf]"we get though it, at worst you can take a break upstairs until, or  Ethan can handle himself quite fine you seemed to imply. " [/color][/i]
