As Prince Francis walked away, Nova could feel the pit of her stomach lowering its self. As if telling her that she had done something wrong. Like she always does, it's always her fault that people are uncomfortable. It's because of her that so many have died, that people's families have been torn apart and are spread far and wide. It's all because she's worthless, and can't do a damn thing right.
"Huh?" Nova mumbled, snapping out of her thoughts. She stops playing with her fingers, a nervous tick of hers, and stands up straight as she looks towards Nicolai's charming eyes. "Oh, uh. No, not really." She lied, her lips slipping into a slight frown as she glanced towards the direction that his friend had disappeared before looking back towards the Prince once more.
"Thank you, but. You don't need to." Nova said quietly as she took a small step backward. "It's a party, you should stay and enjoy it. I can make it to my room on my own, don't worry about me." She told him, doing her best to offer a small nervous smile.
Gathering the sides of her skirts, Nova gave the Prince a courtsey before she turned towards the side, ready to leave. Taking two steps, Nova paused and offered Nikolai a small smile, hoping like hell that he bought it. "Thank you, your highness. It, it was fun spending time with you," she said quietly and then moved to make her escape from the suffocating party atmosphere.
