Even off in her own little world, she was conscious of the arrival of another, and clearly not a man, or the man she had hoped. The blonde's reflection in the mirrors caught her attention, if only because of the vibrant red. Hard to miss that was. Attention seeking perhaps? But then... why in a lonely room of mirrors? She could have laughed at her own inside joke, the mental image of Gavin getting himself lost in here came to mind.

"Hi," she replied flatly, "sure is." Yep. It seemed they were both fine conversationalists. Who'd have thought? She'd have something in common with a stranger, and a woman too.

"Come to get away too?" She jerked her head back toward the entrance from the other room... where the noisy chatter was coming from. Ugh.


See, the problem with finding other people that didn't seem to want join the masses in the large crowd, meant that there was always the possibility that they'd be cold or rude. In which case, it would probably have been better to make rubbish small talk with friendly strangers. Luckily for her, this woman seemed more bored than unfriendly. Perhaps she'd been waiting for someone?

Amber cast that thought aside.

"Yeah, you could say that," she nodded, glancing again around the room. "Large, noisy crowds aren't really my thing." Neither was small talk, but they'd probably get past that soon enough. "I'm Amber, by the way." If she could at least make one friend or acquaintance out of this, it would be worth it.
