All was done and ready for the party until the day the chefs showed up to
start cooking.

With that accomplished Anya left the office she had been using and went
upstairs, spotting Nick and the others in the television room.

"Good morning." she greeted them all before smiling at Nick and sitting on
the chair caddy corner to the couch where he and a girl sat.  She nodded
greeting at Derek as well and tilted her head to the side curiously as she
looked back at Nick "Saturday morning ritual?"

There were sure a lot of strangers in this house, Alyssa thought nervously.
She slipped off the couch and padded over to Derek's side.  For some reason
she couldn't explain, she felt better with him.  Maybe it was because he
seemed to be teh one in charge and people listened to him, she wasn't sure.
But one thing was certain, she was overwhelmed by the shear number of new
people she was meeting in this place, especially since she never expected to
meet anyone new anytime soon.
