Sable tried to keep his cool. Running his hand through his hair, he pointed out, "I was TRYING to be polite...."
The awkward moment was ruined by Lionridge, now standing in the middle of the floor. Her voice rose above the noise of useless chatter. "EXCUSE ME~!"
The crowd hushed.
"Thank you." She smiled. "I hope EVERYONE enjoyed this little mixer. I trust everyone got aquainted with each other." She glanced around the room.
Claire blushed, realizing she made no effort to meet ANYONE.. insted, she just ate sweets.
"Now, if you'll excuse me, I'd like to bring this mixer to a close. Thanks to everyone who showed up and special thanks to all the members of the Student Council who helped set up the event~!"
A small round of applause.
"I now ask that everyone please exit the room in an orderly fash- oh, heck, who am I kidding? You're all just gonna run out of here anyways," Lionridge smiled awkwardly.
A few students slowly began to exit the ballroom. Most of them were stopping by the snack table- getting their last minute fix on food before leaving.
