It took Candice a few moments for her inebriated mind to realize who she had even bumped into, let alone the words escaping the girlβs mouth. Her mind was a buzz β the loud music not helping as all she wanted to do was dance and release this pent-up energy she had. Hopefully forgetting the stupid tasks she had to do; the two actions were still swirling around her mind pecking at her insanity along with the echoes of her mother calling them easy. Was it easy if she lost herself in effort to receive a title she didnβt even want? Apparently to her mother β Candice Clarkβs self-worth didnβt matter when being related to blue royalty.
In an odd way β Deliah Hawthorne reminded Candice of her mother. Both had the same look of superiority in their eyes β every word escaping their lips having a hidden agenda. It seemed like a sad way to live and honestly, Candice wanted nothing to do with that as a part of her life. Though, sadly, it seemed she must. Perhaps if Candice hadnβt been tipsy β oh hell, fine, drunk out of her god damn mind β she would have noticed the looks her βfriendβ was giving her. Hell β maybe she would have noticed the sly underhanded remark that came with βWell, leaving a party like this is very much your styleβ¦ But, how exciting, you decided to switch it up. I hope your aware that this doesnβt mean youβre magically going to be able to leave the party sober.β However, she simply didnβt. Her mind jumped over it and she felt a smile reach her lips.
βDelilahhhh,β Candice exclaimed at the girl with a smile, βOhmygosh youlooksoprettyyyy,β the girl continued β her words becoming more slurred by the second as she looked at the girlβs clothes. βAnddd whooo wants to be sober at a party like thisss,β she stated over the music, moving her body around to the music with a smile as she looked back down at the girl. Candice always knew that Delilah was short. Short but feisty β a aspect she respected the girl for. Though everyone looked down to her, no one would ever look down at her. βLetβs go dance girll,β Candice yelled β pulling the girl to the middle of the room where a group of people had already begin dancing before she could even complain. Candice felt her eyes close as she moved her body to the music next to the girl β laughter escaping her lips as she twirled the girl around. βSoo is Delilah Hawthorne going to leave this party solo or with someone?β Candice yelled over the music after a few minutes. In all the years Candice had known the girl β she had never seen her with anyone β so she couldnβt help but wonder, even in her drunken state.
