"You look lovely. Do not change a thing," he argued. It didn't take Stas long to realize that Bernadine wasn't very much like Abernathy, only when she had to pretend to be. That was reason enough to be her friend, but as January blurred by with his English steadily improving and school suddenly becoming very real, he found that he wanted her to be his friend. She was funny and odd and comforting to be around.
It was with a tiny pang of guilt that he took her hand and walked her from his dorm to the dance. He hadn't told her about his girlfriend yet; to be fair he hadn't told anyone. Still, it smacked just a little bit like being false that he was taking sweet Bernadine to a dance and doing his best not to think of Diana in the process.
A few heads turned at Stas in the red velvet jacket and 'Abernathy' in the sequined gold top. They made quite a pair with their wardrobe alone. Add to it that no one had seen Abernathy turn up to one of these things with such an attractive, male date and people were talking.
This was familiar territory for Stas, though he hadn't expected to gain any sort of reputation so early. "I did not think I would get so much attention."
