But contrary to Theo and ever the gentleman, Bas had kept his word in finding his baby sister a place to sit. They fought their way through the crowds of loud, drunk party-goers until finding the perfect seating arrangements, and spent some time joking, laughing and judging those they pleased. It was in times like these that Maddie was grateful life had given her two brothers instead of one. She took comfort in knowing that no matter what happened, one of them would always have her back. It was the sound of a familiar male voice crying out the name of the baby-blue PowerPuff Girl what briefly interrupted the conversation happening between the Bonfamille siblings. Frowning, Mads' blue eyes carefully scanned their immediate surroundings for the handsome face she knew came along with that voice, and broke into an ear-to-ear grin when she spotted the impeccably dressed, dark-haired male just a few feet in front of them. [color=FF69B4]"LANCIE!"[/color] Madéleine shrieked, jumping up from her makeshift throne and jumping straight into her best friend's arms, failing to notice her brother making his exit. She had missed him dearly during their time away. They hadn't had any real time together since the end of the previous semester, as their respective familial commitments had kept them occupied all throughout their summer. Of course, that didn't mean their bond had lost its strength. [color=FF69B4]"How are you, my sweetheart? What's been going on? I haven't seen you in so long! Gosh, I have missed you so [i]much[/i]!"[/color] she told him, taking a step away from Lance and grabbing his arm to pull him in the direction of her seat. [color=FF69B4]"Come on this way! We have [i]tons[/i] to catch up on!"[/color] [/indent][/indent][/color]
