Summary
He was, in the way that Anthony Bridgerton could not help but be, slightly concerned with himself. He had never, in his entire life, fallen as hard or as swiftly as this. He had fancied girls and chased for their undivided attention, yes - he had seen women, been bowled over with attraction to him and then been beside himself with the need to bury himself in her as soon as he was able - he had even loved, or...what he had believed was love, he supposed; he had felt that undeniable combination of passion and adoration that had him willing to risk every other thing that he cared about to keep it.
But Kate - to him, this evening - Kate seemed like some unholy trinity of all three that he was hurtling towards at a pace that should scare him.

A sequel of sorts to operation: barista (snitches get stitches): as Anthony and Kate begin to grow closer, we can put to bed once and for all who won the bet.

Summary
It is not so long, high school. It feels it, but if he allows himself to think about the great span of life he’s meant to have ahead of him, it cannot be so long. He’s happy, and confident, and comfortable, which is all he’s ever interested in being. Everything else can wait a few years until it makes a bit more sense.
That is all until the day Benedict Bridgerton and his far too pretty face sits next to him in art class.
