Free of the Admiral’s attention Laura began to calm down and slowly regain her composure.  The speech by Captain Yagami and Captain Black made for a good distraction allowing her to focus on things other than the earlier teasing comments. Clapping politely at the end of the speech, she waited to see what was going to happen next since she’d never been to something like this before she was curious about what just might come next. As the music started, she just stood still and listened but as people began to pair off she got nervous. Laura began to edge towards the tables alongside the wall, trying to make herself unnoticeable. She didn’t know how to dance and she wasn’t keen on embarrassing herself so she was hoping to avoid being noticed but she wasn’t sure how successful she actually was.
