"I don't know about Wonderland," Evan said mildly. "I was thinking about the campus coffee shop, myself." He moved over to the door and held it open for Miss Bridget, offering her hat as she walked by him. "I can, of course, glamour your ears if you'd rather not wear it, but I have the sense you prefer headwear."

He enjoyed her blush and the furious way she stalked past him and out the building. Evan strode behind her, long legs eating up the ground to make up the distance she'd gained scuttling away from him. He whistled a little tune as he walked, hands in the pockets of his cargo shorts, sandals flipping and flopping against the ground.

He caught up to her just outside the coffee shop and pulled open the door so she could walk in. It was late enough in the morning that the place was bustling, the line full of sleepy undergrads and distracted professors on their way to their first classes. Evan cleared his throat, just loud enough to be heard over the hubbub.

A moment later, a girl in sweatpants sighed furiously and stomped off, the line apparently taking too long. Another wandered over to the bathroom. A professor stepped out of line to make a phone call. A couple holding hands spotted some friends and ran over to them, exclaiming happily.

Less than thirty seconds later, the way to the counter was clear, and Evan waved Bree forward.
