"There." Sofia's hands work on settling skirts of white upon white upon rose into place once more.
Both girls look to Desmond for the nod he gives to confirm the completion of his own work.
"Right. I'll help Desmond find a way to dispose of the towels," alongside the spare bottle left standing ignored on the nightstand, Sofia reminds herself. "And Amber, you can stay here to rest."
It wasn't a reward, she knew. But Amber couldn't help feel as if it were and that she was about to have all her misdeeds shoved under the carpet and covered up. She made no move to lie down as her sibling and friend made to clear up around them.
Before either of them could leave Amber stood, wincing at the pain the fall had caused her. "Wait." They both look back at her, expectant. There was no way in Enchancia she was going to let either of them go. "You don't need to make excuses for me."
"Lie down, Amber." Sofia reprehended.
"I won't." She stated, taking a few limping steps towards them. "I'm going back to the party."
"You can't even walk properly," Sofia said, thrusting a hand out with her palm facing up in gesture to her sister's injury.
That response only earned a scoff and a toss of a blonde head as Amber staggered her way past the two. The pain would only last an hour, at most. There was little reason for her not to bear her punishment for that time. Then there would still be plenty of time left to dance the rest of the night away.
