    Summary

    "It makes perfect sense!" Penelope's eyes are bright with wine and conviction. "Think about it. We know each other. We trust each other. We both agree that virginity is some arbitrary social construct, so why are we letting it bother us? Let's just—" She makes a decisive cutting motion with her hand. "—get it over with."

    "Pen—"

    "Colin," she sighs dramatically. "We could die tomorrow. As virgins."

    "We are not going to die tomorrow."

    "We could. And it will kill us."

    "Well, we’d already be dead, so—"

    “We could die. Tomorrow. As virgins. I don’t know if there is a fate worse than that, Colin!”

    The one where a question, posed under the weight of alcohol, leads to more than either bargained for.
