Emily heard his voice before she saw his face, but she was already smiling. Turning away from the group some more, she spied the former Quidditch star, and observed his handsome attire. He scrubbed up well. "Thank you, Mister Recard," she greeted as she accepted the flute. He was as charming as she remembered him, owing to the fact that she hadn't been able to enjoy his company in some time, such a shame. "Superior... to you?" she echoed with a light silvery chuckle. "Hardly." Even if she had a new title, new badge, her own office.. and the responsibilities that came with it, it didn't for a second make her more superior to anyone, let alone Ellis.
Taking the opportunity to distance herself from the meet and greet - seeing as she'd done a fair job of greeting and such thus far, Emily took another step in Ellis' direction. "Enjoyed your holidays? I trust you've been well?" He looked well, but she was beginning to get the impression that he always did, and likely always would. It suit his nature, life of the party, suave and charming, it really was no wonder he had made it big in the tabloids, what with his female fantroop.
There was something about the way in which he seemed to be focusing on her, that piqued her curiosity. Considering his own department head was present, oughtn't he have offered her a drink, too? "You're very welcome Emily." Ellis didn't bother with her title or calling her by her last name. She may be a department head now but he still knew her before that and would like to think that their...relationship, whatever that may be, would allow him this privilege. "You look exquisite this evening you know. Was it on purpose?" he teased.
Not his superior? He actually liked the idea that she was. *pout* "How about we call it even then? We are both pretty superior?" Not in the bigheaded way just that they were awesome. Made sense in Ellis's head at least. "My holidays were nice. With family again, I also visited a former teammate of mine in Italy for a few days which was nice." He took a drink from his champagne flute which was a tad small causing his nose to press against the glass. He stood silent for a moment as another man came and spoke quickly to her some words of congratulation. 'Haha, beat you to it bro.' He thought to himself with a grin. He did catch the odd look the guy gave him but he just flashed a smile back.
Now where were they? |
