"See, now that's just mean," Chad told her, chuckling softly, "I think it's a great name, medication or otherwise." All those drinks were starting to catch up with Chad now and he needed to excuse himself. Pushing the stool back, Chad stood up with a groan. "It would appear I must venture to this establishment's fine facilities," he informed her with a laugh and a roll of his eyes, "I'll be back in a moment."
The second Chad turned away, he started cursing himself. That last one had been a real crusher. He shook his head as he made his way through the bar to the washroom, went about his business, washed and dried his hands and was back in under a minute. "Did ya miss me?" he joked, taking his seat again, twirling it around as he had done before Allegra entered, "I think I'm done drinking tonight. Gotta be able to get home."

Allegra smirked a little when he excused himself to the men's room, taking the opportunity to check herself out in the mirror behind the bar. Great Merlin, was her hair really sticking up like that? It must have been her fall. She quickly smoothed the stray locks, made sure her lip gloss was still fairly glossy and took up her drink again, looking as if nothing had transpired by the time Chad came back.
"Tons," she answered him before he mentioned home. She was a little disaapointed. It sounded like their evening was coming to an end. "The big, empty apartment?" she asked, hoping to linger just a bit longer.

"Yeah..." Chad trailed off, picking up on the hint of disappointment. He couldn't help but smirk slightly at the sound of it. So maybe she was actually enjoying sitting there with him. It did boost his ego a little and Chad decided to stick it out a little longer. "A big, empty apartment does sound a little gloomy to go back to," Chad told her with a smile, "What the heck, I'll have one more." With that, Chad ordered another drink and settled in. preparing to stay a little longer. He didn't mind staying as long as Allegra was up for it.

"Don't let anyone twist your arm there," Allegra teased, biting back a snicker. She was still nursing her beer and would proably switch to something non-alchoholic after that.
"So where is this big empty apartment of yours?" she asked before instantly regretting it. Merlin, it sounded like she was hinting for an invite over and she definitely wasn't one of those girls.

There had been a time when Chad would have pounced on that offer and taken it the wrong way, thinking Allegra wanted to come over. But rationality got the better of him and Chad didn't really think Allegra was like that. He let it go and just answered the question normally. "This place in London," he told her, taking a sip of his newly filled glass of scotch, "Place called Wendelring. It's a nice building and my apartment's great just...kind of empty." He laughed slightly coming back to the fact that his apartment was really meant for two and only one was living there. It wasn't the worst thing ever, but he would have liked to have a roommate.

"I live there too," Allegra said cheerily, glad he hadn't gotten all lecherous by her slip. "At least, I live there when I'm not at the school. I share a flat with my friend Shay but with us both coming and going, we don't seem to see each other very much."
So he lived in the Wenderling and was going to be at Hogwarts as the new ref. Good thing she liked this fellow.
