Security spread out across the floor after hearing the order through their earpieces. John is asking the guests if they have seen you. 'The designer who attended with me, have you seen her?' The baroness demands of a young couple. 'Do you mean (y/n)?' the young girl who saw you earlier asks from behind. The baroness turns. 'Yes.' The girl looks uncertain. 'I saw her with Fredrick Grayson earlier.' The baroness looks confused. 'Who the hell is that?' The girl looks scared by her temper. 'H-he's new money trying to get in the good books of the elite boy's club, you know that crowd they don't really take to new money. Last I saw they were heading up the east wing she looked pretty wasted.'

'Baroness.'John appears beside her and for a moment she looks upset the thought of you betraying her is devastating. 'Call off security (y/n) has just had too much to drink she's found someone to look after her.' John frowns. 'I just spoke to every waiter in here, she's only been served one drink all night, one of the staff served her and Fredrick Grayson out on the balcony. The baroness listens to this and her expression quickly changes to one of concern, she quickly strides through the crowd and John is hot on her heels. 'Baroness, what's going on?' He is jogging to keep up with her. She doesn't speak she continues forwards.

"She knows, she knows. 
Bad things happen to the people you love
And you find yourself praying up to heaven above
But honestly I've never had much sympathy
Cause those bad things, I always saw them coming for me"

You aren't sure what's going on but something isn't right it's like trying to fight off a heavy sleep and you feel like you are doing your best to run but can't move. Every door handle you get to you try. Grayson is behind watching you almost like he's testing how well you do fighting against the drug. A handle works and you fall to the floor as you open it the green silk of your dress glinting in the candlelight. All you can hear is a high-pitched c sharp sound but how you weren't drunk? You drag yourself across the floor mostly on your stomach. What is it you were running from again?

Grayson watches you as you eventually flop onto the floor your eyes are glazed and wide open.
