She has another friend? Gosh, you amaze me.

That's my mother's name, but let's not get into that.

I know this is forward, but your face tells me that you're finding this party to be a living hell.

I just wondered if you might come and have a bite to eat with me instead?

I should have thought this through more.

So you always know that underneath, she's still just the same cheeky normal girl naked on the beach.

If we leave now, then we can have, you know, more than one starter.

Ten minutes is long enough for any party, I think.

You read for a living?

Okay, smart-ass. What do you do?

In a suit, in a court, saving people's lives. Kind of sexy.

Would you like to walk me to my car?
