Cecilia kept silent, leaning lightly on the somewhat rustic, charming if a little cold iron balustrade. In her right hand, she kept the still quite full drink-glass, obviously clearly able to hear the girl approaching behind her, but still staring up at the darkening sky in unstirring calm. Briefly, she recalled an old friend who had come to her when she was younger, trying to pull her back to everyone else at parties when she had wandered off. By now, she simply accepted that sometimes she needed and wanted a little time away from the center of activity, and her regular friends accepted that, too. Still, she wasn't irritated. She knew that the timid girl she had thrown into the action a few minutes ago only wanted to be nice to her.<br/><br/>The relatively tall, short-haired brunette took a small sip of her drink, turning her head halfway to send a pleasant smile to the raven-haired girl.<i>"I just wanted some fresh air, I figure we're far enough from the city centre that I might be able to see a few stars."</i>Cecilia took another small sip from her drink, her head and eyes angled upwards a few degrees. After a short while longer, she lowered her head and smiled ironically at herself, then closed her eyes and shook her head.<i>"Guess I should be in there with the rest of them. I will be soon enough, don't worry."</i><br/><br/>On an impulse, she turned towards Hannah, smiling in a truthfully apologetic fashion, reaching her hand out to quickly, gently run a few fingers over the girl's cheek.<i>"Sorry about before, too. Didn't mean to throw you into anything you didn't want to. Was it fun?"</i><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
