Parents' Weekend Evening Event - Saturday Evening Sock Hop

The student council folks had discussed events for Parents' Weekend and decided upon a sock hop at the community center.

So, the whole place was now kitschily appropriately decorated and very glittery, the refreshments were set out, and the music was playing.

There was also a large box of socks at the doorway, for those who felt their socks were too threadbare or too boring, who didn't have any socks, or who came from a world where socks didn't exist. None of the socks matched. Some seemed to be made of extremely odd materials. Some had capes and/or toes (not always five). Most were interesting color combinations. Nearly all had googly eyes that seemed to actually be looking around at things.

Hopefully they were at least good dancers?

"Actually, I live here," April said, in an 'aw, shucks' tone that she usually reserved for messing with Jono or hitting on hot dads. So, this qualified. "I manage the pet shelter in town. The school keeps these events open to get some free chaperone labor out of the townies."

Or something. She wasn't at all certain that that was true.

"I take it you're visiting someone?"

"Yeah," he said, looking over at where Jim was chatting with a blonde girl. "Consider me cheap chaperone labor too."

"If you get bored, you can always go mad with power and start enforcing personal space minimums," April suggested, being an expert and all. "Or drink the punch. Guaranteed improved evening."

"I think I'll pass on the punch," he replied dryly. "You might consider doing the same."

Well, on having more punch at least.

"Who says I had any?" April pointed out, amused.

She had. The red plastic cup was still in her hand.

Chris looked down at her glass at that. Because really now.

"It's water," April objected. Lied, really. But she had no expectation of being believed.
