Juliet picked up a can of sour cream and onion Pringles on her way to NYC on that last trip. She thought it would be sweet, especially because James said that he couldn’t find them in any stores around his apartment. It wasn’t the most exciting gift, but she figured it’d be the last time she’d make this particular bus trip – she’d gotten into veterinary school in Austin and James promised to transfer to the Austin branch of Balin Labs as soon as he could.

When he picked her up from the bus station, he surprised her with the news that he was having “a small get together” to celebrate his promotion at work. As other partygoers brought fancy champagne or artwork as gifts, Juliet showed up with that can of Pringles, like an idiot.

She had nothing appropriate to wear and as always, felt underdressed and awkward. James was busy welcoming people and making sure that the party was running smoothly. Juliet was pushed off in the corner of the kitchen, telling people where the ice bucket was. One of James’ friends from work, Logan, took a shift making polite conversation with her.

“It’s amazing that James has been promoted so quickly,” he commented.

Juliet smiled. “He is amazing. And it doesn’t hurt that his dad is the head of the company.”

“Oh – I wasn’t implying – ”

“No,” Juliet said quickly, “I didn’t mean that. We joke because his dad is so tough.”

“Right, right,” Logan replied. “He can probably afford to actually move to Manhattan now, though.”

Juliet laughed. “Well I’m sure that money will go a lot further in Austin.”

“Austin?” Logan turned to face her. She finally had his interest. “It’s going to be hard for him to be the lead salesman of the North Eastern territory from Texas.”

Of course. This party was supposed to celebrate his promotion – the one that kept him from keeping his promise to her.

“Oh,” she touched her forehead, trying to hide her reddening cheeks. “Right. What was I thinking?”

Logan gave her a stiff smile and excused himself.
