You approach the man with the smile, it seems most welcoming to you and so why would you not approach him first? There is something about the warmth of his grin that attracts you to him and so you cannot resist a conversation with him first of all.

"My lord." You bow your head to be polite. "It is my lord, is it not? I shall now be ever so embarrassed if you are your grace."

He does not break his smile as his gaze turns to you, his eyes wandering across your body before he responds. "It is neither, please. My name is Benedict, do call me such. I have always hated such formalities, they remind me too of my brother!" He indicates to the stern man with the sideburns.

"Ah, I see. Well, it is wonderful to meet you, Benedict. I see that you appear to be having a rather grand time with the champagne over here." You raise an eyebrow at him.

"And should you like to join me?"

What do you say?

"I should like so very much." - Part 7

"Not for me tonight, I am afraid." - Part 8
