When you entered the Amano Plaza, Andre and Elora were already waiting for you in the lobby. "You do always pull the little black dress off," Elora muses as you approach the duo. "Thank you and you always pull off baby doll dresses," you reply while admiring her light green dress.
"Alright, what about me?" Andre asks with a smile on his face waiting for his compliment. You and Elora exchanged awkward glances before side-eyeing Andre. "You pull off a black suit well Dre," you smile while patting the boy's shoulders.
"Yeah," Elora nods in agreement "If I was into men I'd probably drool over you," Elora pauses before adding one more thing. "and your locs look better down because you have a huge forehead." you both stifle laughter as Andre smacks his lips and rolls his eyes at her comment.
"My forehead isn't even that big," he snaps while touching his forehead. "Right," Elora smiles eagerly and turns to walk in the direction of the receptionist. The energetic girl was leading the way and you and Andre followed behind her just a few feet behind.
"Is my forehead big for real?" Andre asked you in a hushed tone and you shook your head. "No, you have a perfectly sized forehead," you say honestly and Andre nods before saying thank you.
"We're here for the Emiko Sakusa after-party," Elora says to the man behind the desk. You all wait as he checks a list and tells you which room it's being held in before heading over to that area. "Thank you," you tell him as you follow behind your friends.
When you guys enter the room it's huge and the ceiling is extremely high, The chandelier looks like it is made out of real crystals--which you wouldn't doubt. The room was also packed. There were a lot more unfamiliar faces than normal but you were able to spot some of your friends and colleagues in the clutter of people.
At some point, you separated from Andre and Elora without even noticing as you made your way over to the bar. When you got to the bar the bartender greeted you with a smile before asking you what you wanted. "Pinot Noir," you smiled and she nodded and went to grab a bottle off the rack behind her.
"You're Y/n L/n right?" A raspy voice spoke from beside you. You turned to fix your gaze on the man speaking to you. He was a white guy with dark brown hair, he had a clean-shaven face, and a tattoo was visible on his neck.
With a raised brow you nod at the man, "Yeah I am, who are you?" you question just when the bartender returns with your drink. You thank her quickly and grab your drink before turning your focus back to the stranger.
He flashes a smile at you and sticks out a hand for you to shake as he introduces himself, "Lucas Gabris," he tells you while you accept his hand. "Lucas? Where are you from?" you ask out of curiosity. He had an accent and his features were pretty strong.
