The place was booked. Everyone seemed to know one another. He wasn't sure exactly what you were supposed to do at parties besides eat and talk, and he wasn't so great at the talking part. The term had practically flown by, and he had made perhaps two friends, of course who were both absent.

Feeling awkward, he began to back up towards the wall. Yes, the side was a good place to eat and not get trampled on. Con bumped against the wall and suddenly blushed, realizing there was a very pretty fellow wallflower standing terribly close. "Sorry," he immediately apologized. "Sorry, is this your--wall?"

Juniper was taken by surprise when she heard a voice unnaturally close to her. She dropped the remainder of her sandwich as eyes widened in shock. This was bad. This was very bad. Someone was talking to her, a boy, and not only did she not know him, he was apologizing for something.

“M-my wall? N-no, it’s not my wall, it’s just, I mean. I’m just standing here, I mean,” Juniper stammered at the boy, her face turning steadily redder. “It’s not my wall. I-I’ll move if you want to stand here, if.. if you want.”

So much for staying out of the way, Juniper thought. Now, even if the boy did walk away, she had to get herself another sandwich. And that meant venturing out into the throng of people. Of course, she could always weave amongst the other students until she found someone she knew, but then she might be eaten. Which brought her attention back to the boy. Juniper eyed him suspiciously. He didn’t look like the cannibalistic type, but looks could be deceiving. And she certainly couldn't outright ask him if he ate people. Not only was that rude, it could be provocative if he did indeed eat people who were smaller than he.
