SATURDAY, JUNE 13TH, 2020. → AT THE PROM IN WILMINGTON.

                   "I’ve gotta say... s’been nice not havin’ to run around the back of the bleachers on the football field to sneak the keg this time ‘round. They make it handy with that bar over there.” Weston stuck his thumb over his shoulder to point out the open makeshift bar that they set up in the high school gym. Ironically so, which had him a bit amused, but was certainly having a damn good time reliving the golden days with a drink in his hand and friends near his side. “Hidin’ it all from Coach Judd was a little difficult, I’ll admit. If I remember correctly, he found a red solo cup and the entire time was runnin’ bleachers all damn practice on Monday.” Laughing some more, Weston sipped from his beer then glanced to his right. “So, do I got your vote in the bag, or ya gonna break my heart too?”

SATURDAY, JUNE 13TH, 2020. → AT THE PROM IN WILMINGTON.

                       "Y’know, I never made it to my prom.” Calvin murmured when he tugged on a streamer that dangled near his head from where he stood near the risers, which of course came flying down when he tugged a bit too hard. He laughed some and wadded up the decoration to replicate a bit like a baseball, then spotted a near by lanky kid and tossed it in their direction... much like his classic old school, high school self. “Was it really this fuckin’ cheesy back in the day or is this just ‘cause we’re all adults and bored?”

SYDNEY FITZPATRICK | WILMINGTON PROM 2020.

In an effort to help the city rebuild and prosper after the devastation of Hurricane Selena, Sydney Fitzpatrick attended the Prom Night Benefit held by Wilmington’s City Council on Saturday, June 13th, 2020. Unlike eleven years ago, however, she opted to go stag and arrived at her alma mater, New Hanover High, in the company of friends but otherwise alone.

WILMINGTON PROM----

As a shock to probably no one, Emmy has never been to prom. In fact, she hadn’t even entertained the idea of attending this one. But even with her tough exterior and rough around the edges persona, there’s something to be said about dressing up and going out. Though it's entirely under the guise of ‘saving money’, having someone to go with isn’t so bad, either. Even with a thrift shop find and her favorite boots-- and every possibility she’s going to be underdressed-- she’s actually looking forward to it.

Not that she’d ever say so out loud.

WHERE: the hideaway. post-midnight. WHO: OPEN & emmy [ @wilmingtonstarters​ ]

The night had been an absolute disaster. After dragging Winnie out with her, he’d not only invited Carmen out, but then he’d just flat out ditched her to go home with someone else entirely. She hadn’t been able to spot anyone she knew and she’d had at least three too many shots. The swell of the crowd felt as if it were closing in on her, like walls of a dark room she’d never fully escape, and as she finally made it to the door, she reached into her purse for her phone, only to find it dead. Awesome. She walked herself through several calming breaths that, surprisingly, seemed to help-- fractionally, but it was something. It was at least enough to call out into the crowd to anyone that might be able to hear her, “Hey! Anyone have a phone I could borrow?”

Tuesday, December 31st, 2019 The Hideaway Bar Open starter → @wilmingtonstarters

Arianna had yet to finish even one drink, but she was already having arguably too much fun. It was her first big night out in Wilmington since she’d moved there barely two months prior, and she was determined to make the most of it. She didn’t mind if she was the first -- or only -- person dancing the night away as soon as she got the chance. With a half full glass in one hand, she shook her hips to the beat and sang along to all the words. A content smile rested on her lips, growing even wider as she momentarily locked eyes with someone walking by. “Hey!” She shouted ecstatically, waving them over to her. “You dance, right?” She asked with a light chuckle, urging them forward with an encouraging nod.
