The quick stepping in and the kiss on her cheek was extremely quick, but he stepped close and she could smell the fresh cigarette smoke on his breath, the actual kiss sending tingles all the way down to her toes. She was stunned for a few seconds, but when she turned to say something, he was gone already. Much lip biting and inner pouting happened when Gale left, trampling her hopes of a long and very possibly entertaining evening of speaking with someone her own age, an American no less. But Kaiyo just blew a soft sigh and with barely noticeable exasperation, strode back into the throng, eyes peering out across the crowd, her small stature aiding her efforts none at all. It was a long few minutes of walking between suited men, prim and proper women and butlers hurrying across the area with loaded trays of food drink or empty glasses, constantly going in and out of the kitchens.<br/><br/>She was just about to give up on searching for anyone in the scrum when she saw a rather handsome blonde boy leaning against a pillar a little ways outside, eyes closed, sipping from a glass. If appearances were anything to go on, he would be around her own age. Kaiyo put heels to floor in a brisk manner, stepping between around or through the paths of many people, either apologizing or just keeping to herself. It wasn't long before she was standing in front of drake, all smiles and charm, hands clasped at her waist.<strong>"Hey there! Just enjoying the night air, or escaping the stuffiness of room and company? Oh! My name is Kaiyo, nice to meet you!"</strong>Kaiyo's small hand reached out, pleasantly waiting for him to either return the handshake or brush her off.
