The cruise for Peter's birthday was absolutely perfect. Peter loved it. He loved that he got to spend the time with his friends and family and there certainly were a lot of those around tonight... He was thrilled to hear Spectre and Derek Sherinian playing, and Deirdre sang occasionally too. It was wonderful. Even if he had doubled the amount of pain killers he was taking just to numb his stupid aching head. Once he was headache free, he was able to enjoy himself immensely. He had a wonderful chat with Dimitri and Sergei, and he laughed as Tasha danced with Hope and Fiona all at once. He danced with Aly too. And then with his daughters all in turn. Even Caleb wanted to dance, but only so he could stand on Peter's shoes and get a 'ride'. Lavannah was sitting by the railing chatting with Gavin, though she was watching Johanna with someone else who Peter recognised was Will. Evey kept running up to Will and then darting away again to chat with Deirdre and her girls as well. Every time there was a break in the music, Spectre was followed around by Jacinta and Edward Montgomery, and they proceeded to parent him. He looked oddly pleased. Abigail and Stuart were dancing and looking quite happy. Even Robert looked okay, though he hung back away from the action. Thomas was talking with Mary and Kat who was rolling her daughters back and forth in the stroller as she talked. People were everywhere, dancing and laughing and eating.

And then Peter started to feel a little strange. He excused himself from Aly's presence and he slipped down under the deck into one of the small hallways so he could lean up against the thin wall. It might be that he was just a little motion sick, but the cruise had ended about twenty minutes ago and the boat was now docked. It was gently rocking back and forth, but nothing major. And still Peter felt incredibly dizzy. He put a hand to his head and he crouched down a little, willing himself not to be sick.

It wasn't the best party in terms of music, and certainly not in alcoholic content, that Alexei had ever attended, but the turn-out made up for that. Most of the people he considered friends in London were there, and he could deal with soft drinks in order to spend a good night with them. It was good to see Sergei and Dimitri again. Somehow, it seemed difficult to find the time. He wished things could have been better between him and Tasha, but he supposed he could content himself with watching her be happy from afar. No need to spoil her night with a fight. She was having fun with Hope and Fiona, and that was the important thing.

Charlotte couldn't have been more thrilled with the party. It included Reina, after all, so what could be better? She introduced herself to the famed ballerina at the earliest possible opportunity, and tried to stay within socialising distance of the woman as much as possible - or in her line of sight when there was dancing to be done. She was used to performing impressive moves to melodic metal, after all, so it was just a matter of course to put on a little show for Reina.

Date: 2007-08-09 08:33 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] vince-coppelius.livejournal.com
Vince was enjoying dancing with Charlotte and showing off for Reina just as much as she was. He grinned widely and kissed Charlotte on the lips. "She's watching us." He said with a grin.

And she was. And she looked impressed too.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:19 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] maximumnerdage.livejournal.com
"Of course she is," Charlotte said with a little smile. "We're the lights of the dancefloor." She wrapped one limbre leg right around Vince's waist, then kissed him again. "You know, I'd be having a beautiful time with you even if Reina weren't here."

Date: 2007-08-09 10:20 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] vince-coppelius.livejournal.com
Vince kissed her back, running his hand down her leg with a grin. "Me too. You're gorgeous." He dipped her back, and she bent back easily, supported by his strong hands.

Tamm and Alessa were sitting at the bar that was stocked with non-alcoholic beverages for the night, half paying attention to Charlotte as she made a very pretty spectacle of herself. Tamm was drinking a bourbon and Coke without the bourbon, while Alessa had an orange juice. After a while, Alessa got up to dance, while Pierre and Jean approached Tamm.

"Maaaaaaate!" Jean greeted Tamm, and clasped his hand in a manly fashion. "How are you doing?"

Tamm nodded to Jean and gave Pierre an odd look. "Is he actually pissed?"

"Do not ask me how," Pierre said with a shrug. "Maybe he went onshore to find grog."

Tamm just shook his head. At least Jean was having a good time.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:11 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] unturning-world.livejournal.com
Emilio was tagging along behind Jean and Pierre, trying to cheer up because there was free food and people who didn't hate him for coming out to them. He glanced over at Jean and chuckled. "He's good at that. Getting pissed." He smiled at Pierre and Tamm.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:21 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] twilightrobe.livejournal.com
"Looks like," Tamm agreed, and gave Jean a manly slap on the back.

Jean overbalanced but managed to recover himself enough that he tumbled onto a barstool rather than onto the deck, and he leaned onto the bar. "Wheeeee..."

"How you doin', mate?" Tamm asked Emilio, turning away from the drunk one for more conversational company.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:22 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] unturning-world.livejournal.com
Emilio laughed at Jean and then he turned to Pierre. "Okay, I suppose. Things are...shite. But tonight is my night off, so I refuse to think too much about it." He glanced at the lights of the city. "I'm happy enough to just be reminded why I love it here in London."

Svetlana noticed Peter take his leave, but didn't pay too much attention at first. He was probably just going to relieve himself or whatever. She wandered out onto the deck, enjoying the stars and the water. There was a crisp breeze coming in off the water around them, and Svetlana found it invigorating, almost like a hint of home.

It was a while she was out there, just enjoying the atmosphere. There was so much love and happiness inside, but quiet moments like this were good, too. She was starting to worry about Peter, though. She could sense his presence, unmoving, below deck. He'd been there a long time. Surely it couldn't be as nice down there as it was up here? With a frown, Svetlana clanked down the stairs, and peered into the corridor that Peter seemed to have taken up residence in. "Peter? Are you alright?"

Date: 2007-08-09 10:22 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] demon-svetlana.livejournal.com
"It's nice," Svetlana responded, drawing closer to Peter. "Everyone's having a good time. It reminds me of David's wedding." She peered at Peter, making no attempt to hide that she was doing so. "You don't look very well. Did you get soulsucked?"

Kat happened to glance out on the dance floor as she was speaking to Mary and Thomas. "And then they yawn and...OOH! Girlfriend! YO, ETHAN!"

Ethan, who was getting Kali a drink, sort of drifted over to Kat with an amused expression on his face. "Yes, Bellower?"

"Watch your children, I'm going to go dance with my lady!" Kat leaned over and kissed Zoe and Bianca. "Mummy loves you!" And then she danced out to join Alessa on the dance floor.

Ethan laughed and he took over with the girls, waving pleasantly to Thomas and Mary as he went. He returned to Kali who gave him a weird look. "Where's my drink?" She asked softly. Ethan hung his head.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:24 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] gonetoground.livejournal.com
Alessa's face lit up when she saw Kat approaching, and she wrapped her arms around her girlfriend's waist. "Hello, lover," she purred as she danced close against Kat.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:26 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] angels-facade.livejournal.com
Kat kissed Alessa deeply and she grinned, her face inches from Alessa's. "Hi!" She slid her hands to the small of Alessa's back. "Couldn't let my lady dance alone." And she ground her hips against Alessa's.

Juliet was having SO much fun! Zoe was a great friend and the boat they were on was huge. And Spectre was there. She was standing mere feet away from him as he played his guitar, looking absolutely mesmerised. This and Jude's party made her month.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:50 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] relinquite-spes.livejournal.com
Hope stopped dancing with Fiona and Tasha and she pointed at Juliet. "Zoe's friend is hypnotised by Spectre!" She said, probably louder than she meant to. "It's cute!"

"Because you weren't all 'oh my god, Fiona, my friends know Spectre, oh my god' a few months ago." Fiona said with a wry smile.

"Shut UP!" Hope yelled, but she was laughing.

Date: 2007-08-09 10:58 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] empress-tasha.livejournal.com
"Hey, I've been there too," Tasha said with a grin. "I used to be all, 'ooooh, rich people'." She wiggled her fingers in the air with wide eyes. "I got over it. I can't even be bothered with the gossip magazines any more."

"Gossip?!" came a voice from behind, and a little sugar-high blonde with a passing resemblance to Tamm bounced up. Jubilee Morrison. "Who's got gossip?!"

Reina De Vivero was watching the dancing with a silent eye when she was approached by a firey redhead with an amazingly large smile. "Hello, Darling! I'm Caitlin O'Connor!"

Reina seemed sort of taken aback. "The...the photographer?"

Caitlin was very pleased that Reina knew her. "Absolutely! I hear you've transferred here to work with the Royal Ballet! It will be absolutely marvelous to have you in London! Darling, I must introduce you to my daughter. She is very good friends with your cousins Alyona and David? Her name is Deirdre and she's a stage actress. Sensational. She played Velma Kelly in Chicago on the West End. Oh Darling you must let me photograph you sometime, you are gorgeous!"

Dylan was chatting with Lydia and Anna when his mother dragged a woman over to them. He watched with a dryly amused look on her face as Caitlin introduced the woman to her fiance Finian. Then she dragged the woman over to them. "Dylan, this is Reina De Vivero. She's a dancer!" Lydia looked bored. She already knew Reina.

"Much obliged to make your acquaintance, Reina." Dylan said, with a little bow, and then he took her hand and kissed it.

Date: 2007-08-09 11:20 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] bailarindereina.livejournal.com
Reina, who had been slightly confused as to what was happening up til now, looked absolutely charmed at the little blond boy in front of her. "Hello!" She said happily. "Lovely to meet you too, Dylan." She wondered where he'd learned such manners, since his mother was obviously certifiable.

Svetlana hurried back up the stairs from below deck, and into the main deck area. She cast her eyes over the crowd, looking for the right person. Who would be best? A bright shock of red hair, and Svetlana knew she'd located the right person.

"Deirdre!" she called to her as she approached. Renee looked up as well. "Peter needs help. He's... I don't know, he looks bad. He can't talk properly."

Date: 2007-08-09 11:11 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] deirdre-ionuin.livejournal.com
Deirdre was standing with Renee, but Svetlana's words made her drop her drink. "What?!" She yelled, getting the attention of several people by accident. "Fuck! Where is he?" She asked, running towards Svetlana, shoving Jacinta Montgomery into Spectre who was taking a break, as she went.

Date: 2007-08-09 11:23 am (UTC)From: [identity profile] demon-svetlana.livejournal.com
"Down below deck, I told him to stay." Svetlana grabbed Deirdre by the hand and led her out towards the entrance to the area where she'd left Peter, her heart pounding with anxiety to get back to him. Renee followed closely behind, having shoved her drink into the hand Spectre hadn't used to catch Jacinta.
