Fenix smiled as @lachlan walked in and then in strode @ramilda. "Oh, gods." Was all he could mutter before she was there beside him. Jumping as she smacked his backside Fenix glared at her for a moment and shook his head as he watched her saunter off towards Carys and Chet. He was about to ask @mandy a question when Jaxon Jameson Cole and a red haired young woman approached.

"Jaxon, hello. Good to see you again as well." He said with a small smile. He turned to the very young woman and eyed her for a moment before nodding his head to her. "It is a pleasure to meed you, @odessa." He shook the girls hand and then nodded his head. "It is my pleasure, you two have fun tonight."

Over the top of Odessa's head he saw @ami and smiled, waving at her. There was a better turn out than he had expected as others began to enter.

Spiridon refused to believe his girlfriend when she said that a guy Persephone had dated at one point was throwing a party and showed him a picture of the guy. He had laughed so hard that his sides hurt. He had only ever saw her date one guy, obviously, and his brother was the exact opposite of the weirdo she had shown him a picture of. Spiridon couldn’t turn down a good party, especially when it meant he got to spend time with his girlfriend. Work had been hectic lately and it seemed like everyone was still coming down from the Tasha incident. He still felt like an ass, but also amused that he had been hit twice in the process of getting himself straightened out. Well, it was mostly Vitalia that straightened him out. It was hard to argue with her, especially with how infuriated she had been with him. He could admit that he had certainly deserved it, though he had been shocked at the time when she had hit him.

He hadn’t been sure what to wear, deciding that jeans and some kind of shirt would suffice. He didn’t know what to expect when he got there, but figured he would stick out like a sore thumb regardless. He seemed to stand out anywhere, really. All he had to do was speak and people certainly knew he wasn’t from around there. He was getting better at trying to tone down his accent when he was in a professional conversation, but in day to day conversation he didn’t really bother as much. ”I can’t believe I let you drag me here.” He said to @vitalia with an amused smile on his face. He was already curious as to what exactly they were about to walk into. He wasn’t concerned about the fun factor, because he had fun with his girlfriend no matter where they went. ”You know you’re going to owe me for this, right?” He added on with a mischievous smile.

Holly always enjoyed a good party. She was in her element at any party she went to, and she was sure this would be no exception. She had been excited when @nathan had invited her to come with him. It had been far too long since they just went out and had fun together. She always enjoyed his company, and knew that they could make any outing fun. They had slept together on a regular basis while at school, but he never treated her any differently afterwards and that was another reason why she had liked him so much. He never made a big deal out of it, and that was all she ever really wanted. Sex was for physical gratification and nothing more. Granted, she could admit that the longer she shagged a person the more enjoyable it became.

If Nathan made a serious move on her, outside of joking around, she would shag him again. It was something she wouldn’t mind in the slightest, but that was a decision he would make. All she was looking forward to was having a bit of fun. ”I still call bullshit, Reynolds.” She replied with a smirk. There was no way he had to worry that much about bints trying to throw themselves at him, but if they did that was sure to be interesting and amusing. She had already warned him that her goal would be to make bints uncomfortable that so happened to actually try to flirt around with him. ”Do I ever mind?” She asked with an amused shake of her head.

Holly followed him over to a small group of people, smiling as he introduced everyone. She couldn’t help but notice the obscene amount of leather bints were wearing, making it look as if they should be spinning about a pole for a few sickles. She certainly had more than enough experience to make that judgment. She smirked to herself at the thought. ”Nice to meet you too, @chet .” She replied as she listened to the group speak. ”I’m doing okay.” Holly said to @carys . If Nathan hadn’t already introduced her she surely wouldn’t have recognized her. It was almost impossible to stop herself from laughing as the bint went on a ramble about Nathan’s groin, and she suddenly became glad that she hadn’t bet him money that he was full of shit about bints. It was easy to see that the woman was embarrassed, but that just made in all the more amusing.

After a brief moment Holly turned and placed her hand on Nathan’s lower abdomen, pressing her body against his side with a light chuckle. ”It seems to be okay, but I’ll be sure to double check on that later.” She said to the woman as she finally looked up at Nathan with a wink. If the bint got more uncomfortable it would certainly be more than okay with her.

She had just finished speaking to the couple when @raellyn approached. And she nodded her head to the woman in greeting. She did not know the woman, other than the fact that she played quidditch. ”Hello.” She said the woman with a small nod, doing her best to make nice, even though she felt as if she was going to be sick. How, why, would Jaxon be here with such a... child... that was all that was going through her mind, but she did the best that she could to not loose focus. She was here to have fun, and perhaps she might even leave with a date. Pasting the smile back onto her face she sighed.

Her attention was pulled by the lovely model and she laughed softly. ”You've modeled with @fenix before, right?” She asked already knowing that she was absolutely correct. @nathan soon joined them and she smiled before greeting the man. ”Nathan! Hello again!” She said before turning to greet his date. ”@holly, it is nice to meet you.” Jealous shot hot through the woman she she looked at the younger woman, envious of how pretty she was but she dialed it back after a moment and took a long deep breath.

”@chet, love, you know I always must look my best!” I would feel much better if I could dig this thong out of my ass she thought, but gave him her best smile and scrunched up her nose. He asked about a drink and she held up her hand for a moment before asking for a rum and coke.

@raellyn commented on her outfit and Romilda laughed softly. ”Thank you! It's an old favorite, and nothing too formal, so it works.” Soon Carys was rambling on about Nathan's groin or something and she made a face, covering her mouth with her hand. ”I think I will join you, Carys. Seems like more Quidditch talk than I can handle.” She joked and winked at @nathan.

Katlyn was laughing as she walked down the street a grin on her face. She was so happy! She had had a good day at work and now she was going to a party, that was hosted by @fenix ! She could not believe that she was doing this! It was gonna be a blast. She had on a new dress that she had bought with her mother, and she felt amazing. Smiling she walked past the house and then stopped before going back.

Walking into the house she smiled and waved at @carys . The girl had been a year before her but she had not talked to her since they finished school. It was okay, though they both lived busy lives, and she had no doubt almost forgotten her. Katlyn walked to the bar and got a drink. Sipping it quietly she decided to linger next to the bar. She didn't really know anyone that was there anyway.

When Vitalia had heard that Fenix was having a party, she couldn’t in her right mind turn it down. She was generally a really nice person… and she didn’t dislike Fenix. But she and Persephone always made fun of each other for their exes—they had for years, and she just felt like she had to come here and see how the man had been doing. And hopefully have some funny stories to tell Persephone later, and also just because she wanted to see the look on Spiridon’s face when he saw Persephone’s ex. Really, it wasn’t funny—she felt like kind of an asshole for thinking it was, but she also knew that her cousin’s husband now was quite a bit different from many of her exes. She just felt like Spiridon certainly had to see that for himself. It was her duty to show him, really. Besides, who was she to turn down an invitation to a party? She loved social gatherings.

The only part she didn’t like was trying to figure out what to wear, because she usually found that she was underdressed just about everywhere she went. It came with the territory since she wasn’t all that into fancy clothes and the like. Vitalia thought she had done all right, but looking at everyone else’s outfits as they walked in, she wondered if she should have put on something leather—did she even own leather? She didn’t know. But she rather liked her crotchet, quite frankly, so she didn’t bother herself too much about the fashion aspect of it all. Instead, her gaze just moved to @spiridon as he spoke. “Don’t be a poor sport, I’m sure Fenix has some vodka around here somewhere,” she quipped back in response as they headed into the party. Vitalia liked going just about anywhere with Spiridon, so she thought that tonight would be fun regardless.

After all, it had been a long couple of months, and she was looking forward to it all hopefully continuing to wind down. In light of everything that had happened, Vitalia truly thought that they deserved some peace. Of course, then summer would begin and family would come home from school, and the twins would pop out and make their appearances eventually. She figured that this summer would prove to be eventful as always, but she wanted to appreciate being able to relax with Spiridon and just have a good time. “Oh, am I?” Vitalia countered, her eyebrows raised. She figured that they would have fun regardless, but she had no problem owing him if that was how he wanted to play it. It would all be worth it just for the amusement she was sure tonight would provide.

Conrad was having his drink and talking to one of the guests, a girl she had not seemed to realize who he was. He then heard a male voice, making Conrad turn around, which he did only to see that it was @fenix.

Conrad smiled at the man, he and Fenix were schoolmates and classmates and they had been partnered up once or twice for Potions classes or some assignment or so. Conrad took Fen's hand and shook it, "Well I am happy to be here, I'm glad you think so. Thanks for inviting me, parties are a good way to forget some things..." he said in reply to Fenix, he was sure Fen knew what he was referring to, he hated the bloody work camp.

Conrad noticed Fenix was about to say something, but he was interrupted by the arrival of a man and a young girl. Conrad smiled at both the man and the young girl, just trying to be polite.

Nathan was glad that he had thought to ask what @holly was doing that evening, because it was always better to come to something like this with a… ‘date’ than by himself. Of course, he didn’t particularly care if we on his own as well, because he knew that he could always find someone to talk to, and always find his friends here as well. If there was a party and free alcohol, they would be around. It was why he wasn’t surprised in the slightest how easy it was for him to see the group when they’d made it into the house. Nathan was sure that others were probably around here somewhere… Fanny, Jaxon, Artemis… probably Murphy as well, and he didn’t much care about some of the others that tended to hang around them. He was a nice bloke, overall, but nothing was more annoying to him than players that just really bloody needed to retire.

But it was good to see everyone else, and he had to admit that he was surprised to see @carys there. She was responsible for arguably the most amusing time he’d ever had at St. Mungo’s, but he wasn’t aware that she knew anyone else on his team. She seemed decently close with @chet, which was more than enough of a reason for Nathan to back off. He did a lot, and had shagged a lot of women in his day, but he didn’t try something with anyone that clearly had something going on with one of his teammates. Unless they made it clear they didn’t care, and he wasn’t entirely sure that was the case. “Never, Chet—can’t take it back now,” he answered, with a grin. He found that he was exceptionally glad that he had asked Holly to come with him, particularly because he would be entirely amused to see if she could hold her own amongst this group. He was pretty damn sure she’d be able to, though, he thought, as he smiled in response to Carys’s greeting.

His gaze moved to @raellyn, a laugh leaving him before he spoke again. “But I only mean it when I’m talking to you,” Nathan countered, easily. Really, Val would probably have something to say about that, as would Ainsley, but that was beside the point at the current time. His favorite was whomever he was talking to, and if they were altogether, then they were all his favorites. He had to admit, though, Val might be in the first spot, but only since they’d shagged before. It had to give her a leg up, after all. It was another reason why Fanny was his favorite Fanny. Friendship, with shagging benefits—his favorite type of situation.

His grin widened as Carys began to ramble, something he had grown accustomed to when they had met at St. Mungo’s—though he had thought she was flustered due to his lack of clothes more than anything else. And clearly, he was dressed enough now that he hadn’t thought it would be a problem. It clearly wasn’t the fame thing, because she was talking fine to everyone else. “You were only a little rough, but I can handle it,” he said, before chuckling as Holly pressed against him and spoke. “Oh, I’m glad I have you to take care of me,” Nathan told Holly, smirking. His gaze moved to @ramilda and he shook his head, “You’ll have to get used to Quidditch talk around us, babe,” Nathan replied, though it seemed like she and Carys might be leaving, at least for the time being.
