"Hey, I’m Ryan," he said, offering his hand for her to shake.

   "Spencer," replied the blonde, taking his hand.

   "So you look like you’re having lots of fun," commented the boy smiling.

   "Oooh yeah.." replied Spencer, reflecting the boy’s grin.

   "So did you come here alone or did you get ditched?"

   "Well I came here with my brothers, but they’re occupied at the moment," explained Spencer, pointing first at Clay who was still on the dance floor, and then over to Glen who was now wrapped up in a full on make-out session with the girl who had been sitting next to him.  She was definitely very friendly, as she was now on his lap and Spencer couldn’t tell who’s hands were who’s. 

    "Ah..I see.." said Ryan, turning his gaze away from the near-pornographic scene in the corner.  "So that one, is he adopted or..?" asked the boy pointing at Clay.

   "Oh Clay? Yeah my parents adopted him when he was little, he’s really great."

   "That’s cool.  And what about the other one?"

   "Glen, well..he can be actually be a pretty cool guy, but he definitely has his moments,"

   "Yeah I can see that," commented Ryan laughing.

   "So what about you, did you come with anyone?" inquired the blonde.

   "Kind of, I came on the cruise with my older brother and his girlfriend, they’re like 20, but I came to the club by myself.  But I met this really cool group of like fifteen kids and I’ve been hanging out with them a lot,"

   "Oh I see,"

   "What about you, have you just been hanging out wiht your brothers or by yourself?"

   "Well actually I met these two girls that are pretty cool, and I’ve been hanging out with them so far, but for some reason they haven’t shown up tonight so I’m by myself,"

   "Oh that sucks…well do you want to dance?" asked Ryan, standing up and offering her his hand once again.
