The stranger turned out to be her previous dance partner, and he told her that she passed out while drinking.
She swore never to get drunk again. She never had before now, and she wouldn't any more. Her smooth portion of coke glided down her throat, soothing it. When she was done, Anuion left.
She suddenly felt lonely again, and walked off to the dance floor to seek company. In a corner, she noticed someone sleeping.
"No, it can't be!" She said quietly in surprise.
She had to take four looks to finally realise that it was Menelien!
She walked over and shook her.
"Wake up, sleepyhead!"
Menelien stirred, and looked up sleepily.
"What? Who are you? What's going on? What did I miss?"
Eladoriel laughed at her friend's eager but sleepy manner.
"Come now, Menel, get up! Let's go find ourselves some conversation and some dance partners. I'm so happy I found you! I was SO bored... after passing out from getting drunk, that is..."
"Oh, I did too a while back. Not very pleasant."
"Er...Yeah."
Menelien let out a chuckle, and with that the two of them made their way through the dance floor and to the bar.
