[I am sorry for the late update, school just finished and I have been distracted. Enjoy!]
"Why do we have to go with you?" G grumbled, looking at himself in the mirror as he straightened his tie.
"I for once would have to agree with him, I left my home to get away from all of this political stuff!" Lampo added to the complaints.
"You're coming because my friend Elena wants me to meet someone who is an aristocrat and I feel that it would be good to have them on our side. I want him to meet the people I am connected to." Giotto responded sitting in his chair waiting for his friends to get ready. The truth was he wished he could have gotten Asari and Alaude to join them; however, Asari was too far away and the travel expenses would be too high, and Alaude, well.
"Could we at least meet him in a place where we don't have to be all dressed up in a suit? I hate suits," G continued to complain.
"Seeing as he is an aristocrat, he is pretty high class, I am sure you would still have to dress up just to talk to him on the street." Lampo answered.
"I don't know why you two are so upset; I think it is great that we get to meet someone of such high standings." Knuckle said with a huge smile on his face.
"You being so happy all of the damn time doesn't make things better you know. It actually makes it worse." G commented.
"Maybe you need to try and be more joyous yourself; it will make you and everyone else's life a whole lot easier." Knuckle retorted.
"On the other hand maybe bringing you guys a long is a mistake after all." Giotto sighed.
-At the Party-
Once they had all arrived at the building where the part was being held Giotto quickly found his friend he spoke of earlier.
"Ah Giotto I am glad that you were able to make it!" Elena greeted cheerfully.
"I am honored that you invited me, these are my friends. G, Lampo, and Knuckle," He said motioning towards the men that stood behind him.
"It is nice to meet all of you, thank you for coming," she smiled.
After they had all exchanged names and finished with all of the formalities they made themselves comfortable with the party setting. Lampo made his way over to the buffet and started eating for all he was worth. G stayed over by the drinks, thinking that a little or maybe a lot of alcohol would make the time pass by faster. Knuckle went out and greeted people and even accepted a few dances from some of the women there.
Giotto had himself accepted many offers to dance and had made his way back to Elena. "So this friend of yours; when will I get the honor of meeting him?"
"We can go talk to him right now actually. I think he is done with all of his greetings and talks with government officials."
Giotto followed the woman up to the top floor of the building and made their way over to a man with light blue colored hair that was tied up. The way he was dressed, there was no doubt that he was of the high class society. When the two walked up he finished up his conversation with the man in front of him and went to greet them.
"Hello Elena, I see that you have brought someone with you. Is this the man that you were so anxious for me to meet?"
"It is actually; this is Giotto, he is the one that is head of the Vongola organization that I mentioned."
"Hello, it's nice to meet you," Giotto greeted, extending his hand out.
Daemon shook his hand and introduced himself. "Elena has told me a lot about you and the work that you do. It sounds very interesting and it is for a good cause."
"We try our best to keep the innocent people safe and let everyone know that no wrong will go un-punished." The blonde commented.
"I think that it was a wonderful idea, and you have gotten so many people to help you in your efforts." Elena smiled.
"Yes, some of them are a little rough around the edges but the all mean well and get the job done."
"I have been telling Daemon that he should join up with you so that he can do his part in helping. With his influence you would definitely be able to get something done." Elena said, looking over towards Daemon as if waiting for him to give his answer right then.
"That would be great; it's always to have new people join in our efforts. Of course this is all up to him if he wants to."
Daemon looked over at Elena and then back at Giotto. While he had just met this man and still did not know what to think of him he knew that he could trust Elena and her judgment of character. If she said that this would be a good move on his part then he would trust her on it. "I would love to help you out in any way possible," he finally answered.
"I look forward to working with you and I am sure that goes for all of my friends as well." Giotto said with a smile.
Meanwhile downstairs Lampo was sitting down because he had eaten too much food, while G was sitting because he no longer had the motor skills to stand up. Both were being scolded by Knuckle, telling them something about how moderation is key to having a healthy body and soul.
