Standing over by the punch bowl was proving to be a pretty decent choice on Ariel's part. With each drink, she felt herself relax. By what she believed to be drink number six, Ariel had a decent sort of buzz going. If the teachers were going to get mad at her for hogging the punch and getting drunk - so be it. She didn't really want to be here anyway. Truth to be told, if it wasn't for her friends, she wouldn't be doing a lot of things right now. 

Watching the crowd for Marisol, Shawna, or anyone else she could low-key lean on to pull her through this night, Ariel spotted Sawyer approach the table. 

The few interactions that she had had with Sawyer had been friendly, and from what she could tell, he was actually half decent company. Since she had the tendency to ramble when she got tipsy, Ariel figured it was best to find someone to talk to other than herself. Sawyer being so close by was a God send. As luck would have it, here came Julie and Sonny too! Filling yet another cup with punch, Ariel prepared herself to spark a conversation with the familiar faces quickly surrounding her. Taking a sip as she turned around, Ariel had to fight the instinct to spit it right back out in shock. 

Did Kavi seriously just attempt to start a chat with her? [i]The [b]audacity.[/b][/i]

Tipping her head to the side as she silently thought about how awful his shirt was as she looked him up and down, Ariel began to feel a spark ignite inside of her - something surprising in her state of semi-numbness. What the spark was about, she didn't know quite yet. If she had to guess, she'd say it was about the growing need to slap the piss out of him and walk away. This was the first time that they had spoken face to face since everything had happened and he was asking if she was having fun? The thought made her audibly scoff. 

[color=00eddd]"Fun?"[/color] she said in a questioning tone, repeating the word back to him. [color=00eddd]"If you mean forcing myself to be somewhere I don't want to be while trying to get drunk off of shit punch then yeah. I'd say I'm having [i]fun.[/i]"[/color] Shrugging her shoulders, Ariel took another drink from her cup. [color=00eddd]"What about you?"[/color]
