“Now you have a home. You’re one of us and you shall never be alone again.” Hearing those words, it might as well have been said in a coo to her, because to Elizabeth, that meant the world to her. She didn't really mind the arm around her shoulders from William, though if it had been any sooner then that night, she probably still would've seemed timid and meek enough to shrug his arm off. Elizabeth nodded in agreement to celebrating, a small smile staying on her features.<br/><br/>She walked with William, and let herself be guided to the dance floor, giving a small laugh and a shake of her head at the question. "Of course I do. How could I forget, with what a great example you gave, of 'wiggling' to the music." She answered, just then noticing that each of the new members were practically swarmed by older members of the Footsteps. Well, except for her. Though, as some would think it was a bad thing, Elizabeth immediately was grateful. She'd never be able to relax with that many people crowding around her.<br/><br/>“I’m so glad you joined us Elizabeth. You’ve spent too long being afraid and on your own and now you can have fun.” She was welcomed there, not a stranger, not someone who was seen as any outcast. And, frankly, this was only adding onto the pros she was seeing in this. Of course, she had long ago not been expecting to be surrounded by blood sucking monsters- Because she'd rid herself of such fantasy thoughts. She wasn't a child, and she was positive those things, vampires, werewolves, and all those things, didn't exist.<br/><br/>Surely, having seen Aleksey, should've been enough, but she still was confident that none of it was real. And still, the proof from when she was young, but still she refused to believe. She was starting to over think things again with her careful mind, and visibly shook her head at herself a bit.  "I'm glad I joined, too.. It feels nice knowing you're not alone." Again she didn't seem to mind the closeness of William when he leaned close to talk, though over the loud music it'd be surprising if she would be able to hear him if he hadn't.<br/><br/>Elizabeth didn't even notice the stalking Aleksey, just because she was ever so rarely relaxed at that moment. A deer tricked into the thought of being safe, when really surrounded by hunters themselves.
