This is before, or after. Or neither.

(It doesn't matter.)

They meet at the lobby bar, skirting along the edges of the conference's social hour -- what does anthropology have to do with medical research?, she asks, frowning politely.

The woman -- Charlotte -- shrugs, drains the last of her champagne. Just here for the funding, love. She considers Juliet, appraising, eyes travelling the length of her body. Don't I know you from somewhere?

Later -- blouses and sensible shoes and pantyhose tangled across the room's carpet; Juliet pulls her closer, twines fingers with hers (they already feel too cold).

Don't I know you?

(It doesn't matter anymore.)
