[ she's been watching him, but not out of any of the two above reasons that most women are. instead, she simply notices that despite obviously doing well enough to blend into the party, he still seems somewhat on guard. which, is unique enough in general ( but especially here, where it seems the more serious and nervous have opted to avoid things all together while the rest get caught in the atmosphere ) to catch her interest. Exploring this place hasn't given her answers, so she's resided to wondering if any individuals could give her a hint that she's not completely crazy and imaging things.
the problem with approaching someone off to the side removed from the socializing is that they may be of the same thoughts as her. while it's nice to be in the company of the like-minded, it gave her little more than personal comfort that she was not imaging things. for a situation like this, though, she really wants the truth rather than what soothes her nerves in terms of 'being right'.
naoto approaches from one side of his, waiting until he's ended a conversation and gone to turn before making her way the rest of the distance to put a hand on his arm to get his attention, just in case her voice isn't loud enough for him to hear in all this noise. ]

Hey, do you hear something out of place?
