Vince beside Mila ~~ During the tension between Bo and Nicci<br/><br/>Vince missed nothing. The look in her eyes had him wanting her all the more. If he was reading her wrong let her slap him later but it was her lips against his he wanted first and foremost. Her bold retort was so refreshing, he could not refuse her.<br/><br/>"Ghost!! Aye, I'll be seein Lady Mila's been properly introduced meself.  If she'll have me tour guidin tonight?" Vince offered with the devil in his eyes.<br/><br/>[How else can a lady of the Keep get to know the place if she hasn't been properly introduced to the Ghosts that run it. I'll be happy to scare her to death as we sneaking around in the dark holding hands.]<br/><br/>Footsteps approached and he glanced over. His eyes looking from one to the other of the pair approaching. Nicci and Bo and it looked as if something had passed between them. Whatever it was there it left a mark on Nicci and Bo a bit distant.<br/><br/>Vince didn't even notice he stepped closer to Mila as if he would shield her from so unpleasant a feeling by his closeness.  His hand to her back, brushing her lightly to reassure her and probably himself that things could be worked out. People were willing, all things could be worked out as long as the goal was for everyone to win.<br/><br/>It was Marcus who took the Lead. Well met, Vince thought.<br/><br/>Whatever passed certainly Nicci need not feel sole responsible.  Not in a dance. Never a dance or in the bed room. It was a pairin and a sharin. Touch was never harsh even with hands as strong as steel. No hand should be laid harshly upon the heart of a woman.<br/><br/>Bo seemed not the type for that, so a misunderstanding then, and a kiss and make up later but not too much later, Vince hoped. Definitely well afore that connection was lost a'tween them.<br/><br/>Bo must have felt it also. He seemed propelled to console her. A good man, Vince thought.<br/><br/>He gave Mila his attention. His voice quiet and for her alone, "More Champagne?"<br/><br/>
