“Are you sure?” I asked, kind of hoping she would stick around and I could use her as a buffer “I don’t want to make you – ”

“Naaah, it’s cool I actually like the guy I hooked up with last night We’re gonna go get trashed and then go back to his place again”

“Ohhhhhhh yeeeaaah,” she said, as though just now re “What happened after I passed out, exactly?”
