A gentle fog blanketed the school and the night was warmer than the last two had been, marking decent weather for the Hembrys' party. Jacob stood with anticipation in the treehouse he had made, a gazebo like structure in place for the ceiling and walls. At the first glance of the trees on the edge of campus, it seemed like an ordinary forest, but a yellow arrow would appear for the party guests twenty feet away from the party tree. Inside the treehouse was the ceiling that had a cloth over it that was enchanted to show stars and nebulas, and a few chairs on the floor, along with refreshment tables that held lots of sweets and even more alcohol.
Jacob was terrified. A fair number if not all the people he knew at this school were going to be in the same place and he was expected to make small talk with them. One on one he could handle, but a group was a different story. Nervous and more, he knew he needed to get some alcohol in him before he tackled the problem before him. Shoving some chips in his mouth, he ate those before he grabbed a bottle of rum and poured himself a glass.
