Balls were absolutely not her thing, actually it was so far out of her comfort zone she wasn’t planning on going. But it was good to break a little of the monotony and being able to be joyfully alone was worth celebrating. By not being alone. She didn’t fancy a dress, Claire figured if women in the 18th century had had a choice far fewer of them would have worn that kind of getup. What she did have was some of her own clothes, maybe not something she wore much but something that was far more her.
She was late because she’d forgotten just how long it took to do her hair and Claire slipped in when it was in full swing. Claire greeted a few people, shared a dance with Matt before finally luring Clint to her with several long lingering looks. She’d let Matt go and spread the love while she grabbed two shots of tequila.
“Finally,” Claire said as she held out the glass to him. “Where have you been all my life?”
