An apology

If Anastasia could have evaporated right then and there, she absolutely would have. Instead, she was forced to sit there, rooted in place, staring at the spectacle in front of her. They were dancing. Dancing to some kind of overly excited pop song that she could only assume was Japanese. It seemed to go on forever, and all Anastasia could do was sit there in horror. She should never have agreed to come.

Especially not when she realized that Olivia was blushing.

That was not awesome. That was the opposite of awesome. This was literally the last possible thing in the world she might describe as awesome.

Anastasia nodded, unable to keep her face straight, her lip twitching gently.

"I... yes. That was... very unique." Unique was a good word for it, because it certainly wasn't good or enjoyable.

Anastasia was going to die. She couldn't actually die--her power prevented that--but she was certainly going to be close. The levels of embarrassment she was feeling were downright off the charts. As nice as she'd been trying to be, she quickly cleared her throat, standing up abruptly.

"I - I should go!" She blurted out. Food, the bill--none of that stuff mattered as much as getting the hell out of there as fast as possible before she died of acute embarrassment.

Oh dear. Oh dear. Anastasia was beyond out of her element. She didn't know what she was supposed to say, and she was fairly desperate to get out of the situation entirely.

"N-no! It's fine! I just - I should be going. To do homework." She had to stop herself from carrying on and making her extremely transparent excuse even more transparent.

Anastasia quickly made a note to herself to make absolutely sure that any meetings she had with Olivia were in school only. She was not going to be coming back. Not here, anyway. She didn't dislike Olivia--not at all--but the girl wasn't exactly the most self aware when it came to the comfort levels of others.

"Goodbye! And thank you for inviting me!" Anastasia quickly said, before abruptly realizing that she couldn't just leave her high and dry. Fishing into her bag, she pulled out some money to cover a bit more than half the bill, dropping it on the table and giving Olivia another quick little nod before heading out as fast as she could.
