Crowd watching
Alfarinn watched the masses of Club Eternity, leaning with his elbows resting upon the bar. It was crowded tonight and he expected there to be good sport to be had. In preparation for just such a thing he was wearing a tight black Versace long sleeved shirt and a pair of designer jeans that fit him like a second skin. His long pale hair was tied neatly at the back of his neck for the sake of convienence as well as a neat appearance. Alfarinn smiled slightly at a waitress carrying a tray full of drinks as she passed him on her way to some table and then turned his attention once more to the masses.

Meegan looked up at the woman, and quickly covered a look that is usually reserved for stepping in dog poo or being unfortunate enough to witness someone vomiting. A careful smile formed her lips but did not reach her eyes, and she chose to hold her council.

Ellis' smile deepened as she watched the human's reaction. 'Well well, it's a birthday party.' The vampire started to twist off the foil on the bottle while throwing a wink to Alafrinn. 'Head's up, kiddos,' and with a pop, the cork went flying across the room.
Then with a loud voice, 'Ladies and gentlemen, may I have your attention please?' The crowd in the bar turned their heads, making their table the center of attention. 'Today we are celebrating a birthday! A twenty fifth birthday no less.' She winked at Alafrinn and there were murmurs of laughter. Pointing at the human, Ellis tipped her head and smiled, 'Let us wish this pretty little thing a wonderous birthday and a long...long...life.'
Ellis leaned forward and poured the champagne into the human's glass. With a soft voice Ellis purred, ''Bottom's up, sweetie and enjoy your evening.'

A crimson flush begins below the neckline of her dress and works its way to her hair line as she suddenly finds herself the center of attention. The silver cross that dangles between her breasts feels like ice on her heated skin. Her eyes find Arin's again.
"Look...maybe I should just go."
She begins to gather her purse, her discomfort making her movements jerky and uncoordinated.

Ellis stopped the human and cooed, 'No no, I wont hear of it. I'll take my leave and you enjoy your evening with dear Alafrinn.'
She turned to Alfarinn, 'Darling, call me?' She kissed the pad of her index finger and blew him a kiss.
((ooc: Ellis will wait for a response but ultimately leaves ))

Alfarinn smiled slightly at the woman's antics and looked at Meegan. Jumpy woman. Ellis was just having a bit of fun. Though the dark haired woman was something of a force all her own. Ellis seemed to fill a room with her personality at the very least.
"Oh, of course, we have so much to catch up on. " He drew out the word with a smirk.
"Meegan, there is no need for you to leave. Are we making you uncomfortable?" He was rather baffled by her haste. Certainly that would call more attention to her than Ellis's announcement.
((OOC: It is bed time for the vampire. Sun's up and all that Early night for me tonight. ))

Meegan quickly glanced around the room, noting that no other eyes except Arin's were on her. She replaced her purse back on the table and let out a sigh.
"No, it's fine. I'm fine. So why do people keep calling you Alfarinn? You told me your mane is Arin."
She smiled a shaky smile and drank deeply from the champagne letting the bubbles explode in her throat.

Alfarinn smiled faintly and took another swallow of his drink, indicating her seat with his free hand.
"Do sit down. If Ellis and I have disturbed you then we should be the ones to leave, not you."
He paused a moment, giving his previous words weight by letting them stand alone before continuing with the rest of the conversation. The other clans might enjoy disrupting human lives but not Evenhet and not Alfarinn. This was her birthday of all days, it would not do to spoil her memories of this day with petty rivalries, though Ellis had been remarkably well behaved.
Not at all like the rumors he had heard of the Tacharan leader. Perhaps she was not as psychotic as the stories suggested? Alfarinn mused over that for a moment but decided pondering it further would have to wait.
In the meantime, Meegan had asked him a question and seemed about one wrong word shy of bolting straight out of the club. Yes, very jumpy.
"It is an old Norse name. I'm afraid." He rolled his eyes skyward and then continued. "My family thought it proper to name me after some long dead ancestor. I would have thought their true goal in life was to make sure I never got a date in high school." He grinned at that. He had once gotten himself into high school as one of those things he did to pass the time for a few years. It had explained a great deal about the youth of today.
"You can see why I go by Arin. It is a nickname from Alfarinn and certainly more common sounding. "

The sweet bubbly wine had settled her and restored her confidence. She closed her eyes once, letting them clear. Her face once more composed into the small secret smile as she crossed her left leg over her right.
"Ah, much like the time I went by Anne."

Alfarinn raised an eyebrow at her in amusement.
"And why might you have need of an alias? Are you on the run? Hiding out from the law, on the lamb. Should I be frightened?"
He leaned back in his chair as if he were worried she would jump up and attack him at any moment.

Meegan's laugh is genuine and full throated. Once she regains her composure she winks at Arin.
"I could let you believe that."
She sips from her wine and continues to smile.
"When I was in high school, I had a need for a more American sounding name, and decided Anne worked best."

"But you've decided this is no longer necessary?" Alfarinn sat upright in his chair once more and poured himself a glass of the champagne.
"We did not properly toast your birthday. I am afraid that was interrupted."
He lifted his drink to her.
"To Meegan...or Anne.. or any other aliases she might have's Twenty Fifth birthday. May it be a bright and glorious year for you full of new discoveries and opportunities."

Meegan lifted her glass and clinked it to Arin's.
"To opportunity."
She smiled at Arin and drank from her glass.
((OOC: Sorry about the almost trite respose, I'm writing several things at once and my brian my just explode.))

Alfarinn smiled at Meegan and then felt something vibrate at his side. Reaching down for his pager, He looked at the number on it and frowned. That was the clan code. This was something he had to take.
"I'm sorry, Meegan. I need to go see to this. It is urgent. Please, enjoy your celebration. Hopefully someone nice will come give you a birthday dance. "
Alfarinn stood and weaved his way through the crowd to find the waiter. He paid François for the drinks and added some extra to take care of anything else Meegan would like for the night. He then wound his way through the milling crowd towards the door.
((OOC: Alfarinn out. Not to worry. Had a something that needed to get done anyway. ))

Meegan watched him leave and sighed softly. As she finished off her glass she caught the eye of the waiter, ordered several shots of tequila, knowing and not caring that she would later vomit and then wake with a headache.
They were brought, along with her credit card. She began to object, but the waiter shook his head and she let it go. She quickly downed the firey liquer, then wove her way onto the dance floor determined to enjoy both the high and herself.
