Brid had the distinct urge to run back to the suite. This was nothing like the casual dinners with the ranch hands that right now she missed so much. She knew how to act in amongst a group of crude cowboys, but not this fancy setting. Takahiro's hand on the small of her back was the only thing keeping her from turning tail and running.

Brid looked at the other winners as they approached the table. There was Tom Hiddleston, it was a tie between him and David Tenant for her favorite doctor, with a beautiful black girl in a gorgeous black lace dress. Then there was two teenagers, Brid thought the guy might be a singer but she wasn't sure until he introduced himself and his companion. She had heard the name but didn't really know much about him.

"Pleasure to meet you," Takahiro said. "I am Takahiro Moshimoto and this is Brid McKay." Brid managed a nervous smile to the other winners, feeling like a fish out of water.

Takahiro could see how tense and nervous Brid was next to him. He didn't know why, these all seemed like really nice people. Then again his companion was one of surprises and secrets. He casually put a hand on her thigh, trying to calm her and again lend her his strength, as he started up conversation with the other winners.
