Awkwardness....

'Round table of awkwardness' was the best way to describe the gathering. 

Leo sat beside Richard who was sitting beside another guy they called Frank who sat beside James who sat beside the pretty blond girl who had been flirting with him earlier. Beside the blond girl, the lady who had been at the front door with the tags sat on the next seat while Mira was next, and Mia, and Benjamin, and Jeremy, and Chloe and Peter, James brother, then a girl who looked like Peter's girlfriend even though they claimed they were just friends, then back to Leo. 

In total, there were thirteen people, seven guys and six girls sitting around the round sofa in the other sitting room with a dim light as they prepared for the games. Since the couch was round, they could see each other's faces.
