After graduation (and promising Nate she'd meet him and David at the brunch the next morning, like their mother would let her out of it, God), Claire went back up to her dorm room, trailing a Cal. She lost her hat right after graduation, and viciously tossed her robe across her bed as soon as she got through the door of her room. Her pantyhose would have been next, except it felt like mixed messages bigtime to show your underpants to a guy just before you were about to break up with him.
She would suffer in silence.
"So, uh," she said, sitting down next to the crumpled robe and sounding relieved but with a twinge of dread in her voice, "that's over. I'm all graduated."
[OOC: For Cal, pls!]
