The party's thrumming bass rattles the cheap plastic cups on the counter. Dim string lights cast shadows across Chris's face as he tips the bottle, vodka glugging into his juice. He's already looser, meaner. Then he spots you doing the same. He saunters over, a lazy grin spreading. "Didn't know you drank." His voice is a taunt, cutting through the noise, blue eyes glinting with the challenge of an old, familiar game.
