"Oh. Uh. Cool" Conor smiled and sat down. It took him a moment, and only just a moment to feel awkward. It was a party and she was all by herself. Was this one of those 'girl time' moments you weren't supposed to interrupt? Or was she waiting for someone. He side-eyed her, smiling pleasantly.

"So, Uh. Enjoying the party?"

"Yes?" Kenya replied, poor kid, at least she wasn't crying over some boy who didn't love her- or so drunk that she hadn't noticed being left alone by her friends. Instead she was just... sitting. Alright. That is a bit odd at a party like this.

"Enjoying the peace out here even more so." She paused, "I'm Kenya, I'm sorry but do I know you?"

"He--Yeah." Conor smiled. "I hear that. I--"

Conor made a face.

"K-Kenya? Like the country?"

"No. Like the car." Oh she hasn't heard that before, but even as she gives her rebuttal she is smiling.

"Is that alright?"

"Oh. Yeah. That--I'm an asshole. Sorry." He combed his free hand through his hair awkwardly. At least she was smiling, right?

"I'm Conor. You go to CCI, right?"

"Yeah I am Conor, I'm a senior- which, I am guessing you're not. And if you are, this is very, very awkward."

She still had the trace of a smile on her face when she pointed to his oh-so nonalcoholic drink. "Not one for the booze?"

"I'm not," Conor laughed. "You're safe. Junior. Faux-pas averted or something." That had sounded a lot smarter in his head. He took a sip of his drink right as she was pointing it out.

"Ahh, noo. I'm straight-edge."

"Really?" Forgive her shock Conor, but that seems to be a bit rare around here. Taking a sip of her own coke Kenya paid a glance to their more intoxicated peers.

"So that'll be two people who will remember that they made out." She commented, pointing to a rather odd couple taking over a doorway.

"...Yes?" Conor felt a little bit like a freak show on display for a moment, the way Kenya looked so surprised.

He glanced over to the couple in mention and cringed, "Oof. Yeah, that's uh. That's a certain kind of special."

"What about you? How come you're not over there, living it up?"

Kenya took a sip of her coke before replying, hoping that the well, caffeine drove out that mental image for a bit.

"Have you tasted what is all they drink?" She shrugs, "I'll take my pop when I can get it."

Conor stared at his drink for a short moment. "Yeah, I have. Isn't that why they make alco-pops, though?" He shrugged, taking another sip.

"So the taste is your only reason?"

"Alc-pops?" Kenya asked, it wasn't in a disbelieving sort of way, just, she hasn't heard of those yet.

A shrug and Kenya looked around at the 'benefits' of intoxication. "For the most part. How about you? Any deep seated reason?"
