Well, at least Mason was in good company, even if they were both miserable. Elliot was right though, Mason found it incredibly odd that there were actually students who asked them to dance, talk about awkward. He had to wonder, not that he would actually ever ask and Mason actually prided himself on staying out of the social buzz, if there older students harboring crushes on some of the professors. No, he didn't really want to know. The curiosity flitted away as soon as it popped in and he was fine with that.

"Honestly though, why do they think that's even a good idea?" He said over his glass, watching some of them surrounding a pair of eligible bachelors. "I don't think I could even take them seriously if they were ever my student." Mason had a strict, no-former-student policy in his personal life. It served him well so far. The last thing he needed was rumors flying about that anything inappropriate had happened with a student while at school. He'd have to quit and he really liked his job.
