Green eyes shifted from him to the general area where he waved and she found herself nodding. Vegas might never feel like home but, home itself hadn’t been home since the second her mother had been killed. Valerie made a conscious decision that home for her would never be a place so much as simply being in her own skin. It didn’t matter where she ended up, providing she was still herself. That, she could handle. It had also meant that over the years she had adopted the lifestyle of never really possessing many things. So much easier to go somewhere else when you only had a few bags of belongings to take with you at the drop of a hat.
“Ooo…” Valerie’s smile turned crooked and she absently brought one hand up to her stomach. She could eat. Probably better to do so now than later anyway, now that she thought about it. “Would you mind if I followed you? I haven’t been to the place but you sold me on it with the words ‘good buffet’. My stomach would never forgive me if I walked away without at least trying what it has on offer.” She confessed somewhat bashfully. Thank heaven she had the stamina to burn it all off. Then again, for someone her size, she had a much larger apitite due to what she was anyway.
There were downsides to being one of the Chosen but getting to eat whatever she felt like and putting the energy to use really wasn’t one of them. In fact, it was a perk, one she actually enjoyed indulging. “That probably came out weird, I’m not a stalker or anything. Although I guess that’s exactly what a stalker would say.” Valerie cringed, “Okay, even I know that didn’t help.” The blonde shook her head with a lopsided grin. “Let me start over like a sane person. Hi, I’m Valerie, could you point me in the right direction to the buffet place, please?”
