No, leave it to Laura

I considered helping Allie to bed, but Laura volunteered before I got chance, guiding Allie to her door, and then Jack and Tim headed to their rooms, the night's activities apparently over. I stayed just a little longer, to tidy, and was alone when Emily emerged from her room.

"Oh, Sam! Where did everyone go?"

"Allie didn't feel well, so Laura took her to bed. I guess at that point it just kinda felt like the end of the night."

"Yeah, it's pretty late... Interesting night, eh?"

"Yeah, it's... not quite what I expected from uni."

"Really? It's pretty much exactly what I expected."

I laughed one of those laughs that's really just blowing a little more air through your nose.

"Laura's taking Allie to bed? Lucky girl," Emily joked.

"Is she?"

"Pfft, don't tell me you wouldn't love Laura to take you to bed."

"Well, I..."

Emily laughed at my flustered behaviour. "Relax, girl, I'm only messing with you. She is hot though."

"Oh yeah, you, uh... you like girls, right?"

"Some of them," she replied, making a show of looking me up and down with her eyes.
