Anatoliy was the first to greet him, saying he was doing better, and then asked how he was.  Heath was glad he was doing better.  It helped he was in good company too.  Sofia seemed like a decent person and Veronica had a sweet personality similar to his sister's.  He would have answered him, but Veronica was next to address him.

[color=#B300B3]”Hello Heath, oh, you’ve all met already?"[/color]

He caught the tone shift and wonder what was up, but Heath wasn't bound to ask her that in front of two newcomers.

[color=#808000]"I met Sofia this morning and I met Anatoliy earlier at the party."[/color]

He didn't know how long the three interacted so he didn't bring up that Anatoliy wanted to leave.  His mind wandered back to the other person he met at the same time, Chariselle.  He had his suspicions that she too was one of Aphrodite's lot, and already decided to not bring her up to Veronica.

Sofia soon chimed in greeting him and Heath wondered if she met her brother yet.  It wasn't any of his business so he wouldn't ask.  He didn't see Mason anywhere in his field of vision at the moment.  He did automatically checked to see if Iliana was around and manage to catch her on the ice rink and it looked like Anissa and Blair were about to get on the ice rink too.  Heath didn't think neither Blair nor Iliana had any interaction at this point.  A part of him hoped that both of his sisters could be cordial at least.

Veronica soon explained what they were up too and Heath nodded before answering them.

[color=#808000]"To answer all of your questions, I am doing fine.  I just ate myself and got me something to drink that isn't alcohol.  I only had 2 beers.  That's just how many I always had at parties like this.  My aunts loved having family parties.  While I am still no party person, I've gotten used to them.  Still, I hope it's okay if I still around, at least until midnight.  By then I plan on looking for my sister, Iliana.  She wanted to interact with people on her own this time."[/color]

He didn't think any guy would try to take advantage of her at midnight, but he still worried about that, if he was honest with himself.

[color=#808000]"I need to pick up my tuber ware anyway.  I made shortbread cookies for the party.  I wonder if others have been eating them.  I know Iliana loves them so she would have snagged some already."[/color]

He would be glad when the party was over.  He wanted to get plenty of sleep for training tomorrow.  He would set his alarm like normal regardless.  He wondered when training would start.  A part of him wished the new leader would delay training for one more day considering that was bound to be people who get wasted and in his experience with drunk people, it could take them awhile to recover from their hangovers.  Oh well, it was what it was.
