After dinner, Astoria had gone to get drinks and had subsequently lost Blaise. Not feeling much interest for Quidditch, she had skipped that portion of the evening entirely and had instead immersed herself in fine liquor. Astoria made a mental note to keep some limits in order next time.
Having heard about the lounge that was meant for only wizards earlier in the evening, Astoria wondered if Blaise would be there. She stumbled as she entered the room and giggled at herself. A sobering potion would be most useful, she thought.
It was then that she noticed Draco, sitting by himself. "Is Blaise here?" Astoria steadied herself by placing a hand on the back of a plush chair. She didn't know Draco that well, not having spent much time with him in school, but he was easier to talk to than Muggles, that was for sure.
