Closed Old Friends

[Blair Bianchi]

Blair missed Hogwarts and she missed her friends a lot while in Russia. But she had to admit, it felt nice to be in the same class with her old friends, it was nice to catch up with all of them. They often in the evenings went out for a nice walk, went for some drinks at the local bars and just generally, spent good time. But it was difficult to her. She missed Branson a lot, it felt wrong to be so far away from him for so long, she just wanted to see him. But she definitely was planning on spending Christmas and New Year in New Zealand with him. But for now, she was enjoying what she had. An extremely hard work every day, she hadn't noticed that she was so out of form but her teacher did the best to get her back on top. She definitely had a talent for it, so it wasn't the biggest challenge. She was on top of the class. Best dancer of her age group once again. She loved the spotlight, she loved her studies, she even worked a little part time at her school, teaching younger kids. Blair loved how her life had turned, it was the best that she could ever hope for.

Yet, she missed her friends and tried to keep in touch with them. And as she had a show coming up, Blair invited her old friend Stefan to come over and watch it. She got him the best seats that were available and promised to meet him after the dance. Usually she didn't take the roles that she had that night but this time she got it. She was Sugarplum Fairy in "the Nutcracker" that evening. And after the show, Stefan was accompanied to her getting ready room where she was already in daily clothes but still with the ballet make-up on. "Hey there, Stefan! How are you?" Blair stood up as he was led into the room. Before talking, she shooed the other person away in Russian and then paid attention to her friend.

 

[Stefan Kozlov]

Stefan had been traveling the world ever since he graduated. He was mostly doing freelance work for galleries and establishments, trying to build up his portfolio and see where he could establish a base. With wizarding owl service, however, it was not that hard to connect with someone and that was never amiss with the man when he got an invite to Blair's recital. He had to admit that he enjoyed it and she was amazing. Soon enough, the show was over and he applauded with enthusiasm. As quiet as he was when they were students, he was not one to not appreciate art when he saw one. As other people slowly trickled out of the theater, he followed a staff member guide him backstage. He spotted the woman right away and gave a small wave. He had some flowers with him, hoping it was enough of a present for the ballerina. "Hey, Blair! I'm okay. You?", he shrugged but let out a small chuckle. "This is for you. Great job on the show.", he smiled, offering the bouquet to her.

OOC: Apologies for the long overdue reply.
