"So you're the one that everyone was all excited about waking up, huh? Guess it must be nice to be mobile again"
Reese stared at his glass. So she did know that much. Hyne, well, this was pretty awkward. Actually, any and all interaction felt awkward for him at this point in time. In fact, awkward was basically the word of the night. He shouldn't even be here...
"Hyne, I'm getting really drunk"
Reese smirked at the words, staring at his glass.
"At fucking last, something to dance to"
He arched an eyebrow and glanced at Stella. Was she asking him to dance or something? He looked away, deciding that he didn't care to know what her intentions were. It didn't matter. Without excuse, he stood from his chair and moved over to Stardust. Whether or not she was going to be pissy, he found that he couldn't help but try to talk her down or something. Stardust... He wanted to sigh. She had such a temper.
"Do you want to step out for some air?" he said quietly, looking down at her.

She watched him go with a little smirk of surprise. So much for trying to get to know your new team members. If she hadn't been so well on her way to drunk she might have cared. But right now she didn't mind that he was over talking to Stardust. Maybe he would get her to mellow out some... fat chance.
She drained the last of her cocktail and stood smoothing out her dress admiring it's prettiness for a moment before heading back over to the bar and ordering another. This time she walked out onto one of the balconies farthest away from the Trinity tables looking up at the starry sky.
With a sigh she took a sip of her drink gazing out at the sky. It was a beautiful night. On a whim she kicked her shoes off and climbed up onto the railing. She grinned stretching her arms out letting the wind wash over her. Then carefully she sat down on the railing letting her feet dangle off over the nothingness below.

Rayden emerged from the little boy's room, straightening his jacket confidently and sauntered towards the table. There was an air of a commotion that had just passed, and many people were murmuring and pointing towards the Trin table. He shrugged, looking around the table for a sign of Stella, but she was missing. He looked around the entire room, grinned when he saw her moving away from the bar, towards one of the balconies with a drink in hand. But his grin faded when he noticed that her walk was a little unstable.
He veered away from the table, heading towards the balcony where she had disappeared to. What he saw made his heart almost jump out of his throat. She was sitting precariously on the railing, her feet dangling and face turned to the heavens.
"Stella..." He approached her slowly, speaking in a low tone so that he wouldn't startle her. That wouldn't be a good thing at all. "What the hell are you doing? That's dangerous! Come back over to this side this instance!"

"Oh and killing Adel wasn't dangrous?" she quipped not even bothering to turn her head and look at him. She kicked her feet a bit making her dress rustle.
"Don't tell me what to do, Sharpola. I'm a SeeD, just like you, I'm not gonna fall" Stella said smiling as she gazed up at the stars. She should have known it wouldn't take long for him to find her out here. Oh well at least he wasn't inside talking to some Galbadian. She shuddered at the thought.
"Besides it's a gorgeous night, we should be enjoying it"

"But you weren't tipsy when you were killing Adel." He said sternly. " You can't even walk properly, I saw you. And wouldn't it be such a waste to fall to your death after slaying Adel?" He leant against the bar, trying to look at her face as he did. "I can't have that happening." His tone was earnest.

"Oh I'm not even tipsy, you are over exaggerating" she said rolling her eyes at him and giving his shoulder a playful slap. Boys, always so over protective. There was no way she was going to fall.
"Are you gonna catch me if I fall?" she asked setting her drink down and leaning far forward grinning at him. She threw her arms out to her sides her a laugh, the wind blowing her hair out behind her.

Rayden rolled his eyes.
"The drunk always say they're not drunk." He frowned at her. She even gave him a slap! Well, if she could do that without losing equilibrum, perhaps she was right. But when she leaned just a little too forward for comfort, raising her arms to the sides with a laugh, he quickly caught her by the waist with his arms. She might call him paranoid but she was giving him regular heart attacks.
"I won't let you fall." He said firmly. "If I can surgically attach myself to you now, I would."

She grinned lowered her arms resting them on top of his. Leaning back against him she purred a little. It was easy to admit that his arms were strong and it felt so good to have him supporting her from behind.
"Hmm that feels nice" she said closing her eyes a little resting against her back his chest, her legs still dangling over the edge. Taking a deep breath she let out a long sigh.
"So tell me something I don't know about you" Stella said with a grin resting her head against his shoulder.

"Hmm..." He said, his breath exhaling against her face. "I used to be child labour?" He knew that it wasn't exactly what she was looking for. From her tone she probably wanted to know something that went deeper, and he didn't know if he was ready to say it yet. He needed more time.
And hell if he was going to say it to an alcohol-influenced Stella. If he had to reveal "earth-shattering" secrets she should be wide awake.
"Did that satisfy you, Milady?" He asked grinning down at her.

"I guess..." she said with a sigh considering kissing that grin right off his lips. Carefully she wiggled out of his arms and climbed down from the railing to stand next to him. She was much shorter now with her shoes laying on the floor next to her.
"How come you aren't drinking tonight? For a party boy you seem a bit stiff" she said giving him a wink.

He exhaled in relief when Stella finally got back on the ground. Then raised an eyebrow at her question.
"Well if I was drunk too..." He grinned playfully, wiggling eyebrows and all. "...who will prevent you from falling? I'd be climbing up there with you and dancing on the railing. Tsk, I don't think two dead SeeDs fallen from a balcony would be a good look. They'd think we tried to elope." He laughed. "Besides, no telling what kind of stuff I'd do if I drink..." He shrugged. "I might blurt some unsavoury thing out of my mouth."
He stood closer to her, leaning out an arm for her to support on.
"And uh, in case you need a balancing pole to wear your shoes, I'd rather be ramrod straight than leaning tower of Rayden."

She shook her head with a laugh. How had she managed to get herself involved with this?
"Child labor huh?" she said resting her hand on his shoulder as she started to slip her shoes back on, "I guess that I owe you a secret now"
"Hmmm..." glancing up at him seeing concern in his eyes, "I'm not that drunk!" she exclaimed putting her other shoe on and standing up straight.
"Geeze" she said reaching for her drink on the railing.

"Could've fooled me." He shook his head at her. "Unless you usually just feel like sitting on railings for a hobby." He watched as she reached for her drink. "How many drinks have you had exactly?" He peered at her face. She looked a little flushed, but he didn't know if it was from the night wind or from alcohol. "To be safe..." He smirked, grabbing the glass from her hand and downing it in one gulp. "Nice choice."

"Well let's see I had about two glasses of wine... some vodka and..." her voice trailed off as he spoke up. It was quite a list actually but she wouldn't admit that to him.
"To be safe..." he said grabbing the glass and downing it. She watched him appalled at his behavior. How dare he!
"Rayden Sharpola! Is that anyway to treat a lady?" she demanded to know stomping her foot, her heel clicking on the stone floor.

He shrugged.
"I know it's rude but you might stop behaving like a lady if you drink any more." He licked his lips clean of any drink lingering on them. "I'm just saving you from embarrassment...because I suspect the list after that 'and...' isn't a short one." He pressed the back of his palm against her cheek. "You can't see it but you're already flushing a little."
