When Cora heard that Penny did want what she was doing, she helped herself to pressing kisses along her shoulders and décolletage area. She continued to pepper kisses along her skin as she answered her next question. She enjoyed feeling her body shiver slightly, and she couldn't help but pull away from her kisses when she admitted to trying to make her jealous. She felt the woman's hand tangle in her hair, and smiled. [i "What I want, is for everyone to get out of here and hop into bed with you, but you know we can't do that. Stacy will wonder where you are, and Brynn is staying here for the night. Let's just play the rest of the night, see where it goes. Okay?"] she asked, before letting her lips crash into hers once again. She smiled, grabbing the woman tightly by the hips, pulling her closer to her. She pulled away softly, letting herself kiss her neck, and soon realized she had left a small mark on Penny's neck. It wasn't like her to make up someone, but in her state of intoxicated dominance, it was almost a given it would happen.
Cora gave her one more peck, and pulled away, letting her face stay close to Penny's. [i "I guess we gonna go back out there, they'll be looking for us. But, I don't know about you, but I need a drink."] she smiled, taking Penny's hand in her own, leading her out of the room to the drink table. Cora grabbed a couple of mixes and liquors, making two glasses of some drink. She knew it tasted good, and tasted very little of alcohol, which made it pretty dangerous. You could drink them all night, and end up fall over by the end of the night. [i "To us?"] she questioned, touching their cups together before taking a large sip of the drink.
[+pink "There you are! I've been looking everywhere for you ladies?! How's the night going?"] Brynn asked, wrapping an arm around each girl. Cora gave a glace to Penny, before looking down to Brynn, a smirk on her lips. [i "It's gotten better as the night's got longer, right Penny?"] Cora spoke, the smirk staying on her lips. Brynn rolled her eyes, feeling the dominance seeping out of Cora, and she instantly knew she was drunk. But, seeing how she spoke to Penny, she could also guess something had happened between the two, which made her happy.
Cora looked over, seeing Stacy looking around for, assumedly, Penny. But also could see Kara, assumedly, looking for her. She nodded towards Stacy, directing it to Penny, [i "Looks like there is a search party out for you, and me."] she spoke, her face dropping to a bit of a pout. [i "I'll see you later, okay."] she smiled, giving her hand a squeeze before heading over to Kara. She let the girl down gently, even if they just met. Saying she just wasn't ready for anything right now, which was half true. She didn't know if she was actually ready for another relationship, as her last one ended only a few months prior, a long one at that. She didn't want to lead Penny on, and she wasn't even sure if a sober Cora would remember, or even have enough confidence to try anything with Penny.
When Cora met Penny, she knew she had a big personality. She was loud, confident and a breath of fresh air. Cora was depressed, closed off, and cold. Cora really believed that most people were too good for her, and didn't let many people in, even before Izzy. It had taken Izzy months just to have simple conversations to Cora, but Penny was able to get past that. Cora didn't want her to get hurt, assuming she would if she got any closer to her. After parting ways with Kara, she went to the drink table and downed two more shots. She now knew, tomorrow she'd remember nothing. But, this time, she felt bad about it, for Penny's sake.
The party died down, and all that was left was Brynn, Cora, and Penny. Stacy had even gone home, telling Penny to call her if she wanted her to come back over. Cora, at this point, started to sober up, but not completely. Her dominance was not as high as it had been and she was coming out of the blackout she had, and she started to clean up their mess of an apartment. She kept her distance from both Brynn and Penny, not even answering simple questions from either of them.
Brynn knew what this was, she had been able to clock all of Cora's mannerisms, as they had been friends forever. Brynn went over to Penny, as Cora went into the tucked away kitchen, [+pink "She does this. She gets to in her head and tries to talk herself out of everything she did. If you guys did get close, like I think you might have, she's currently going to worry you are too good for her. But, she almost might have forgotten the whole thing happened, depending on how drunk she actually was."] Brynn said, [+pink "Go talk to her."] Brynn gave her a smile, using her time to pick up the living room area.
