Connor:
At the Pembroke residence, not too far from campus. Freddie always throws a good party, and this one is an annual gathering for the alumni to talk about fundraisers and the like.
Fundraisers? That sounds boring.
Connor:
Really it’s just an excuse to eat apps instead of real dinner and drink and gossip. Watch couples fight and break up.
Connor:
Watch unexpected couples hookup.
I raise my brows at the last line. Is he implying he might want to hook up with me?
I’d consider it. Or Belinda would.
Me:
So it’s THAT kind of party.
Connor:
No, no, no. That’s just what always happens when the liquor flows and the feelings get a little too real.
He’s not wrong. And when the liquor flows, it tends to loosen lips, too. I’d love to hear what some of the otherWickham students have to say about … things.
