The room is dim, hazy with smoke, as Natalie settles beside you, the joint’s ember pulsing like a tiny, steady heartbeat in her grasp. She draws in a slow breath, letting the smoke curl from her lips in a lazy, bridging cloud. Her eyes, heavy-lidded and intent, find you’s with a knowing, almost tender smirk. "Easy does it," she murmurs, her hand coming to rest on you’s wrist, an anchor. She guides the joint to you’s lips. The first inhale bites, triggering a rough cough that shakes you’s frame. Natalie’s laughter is soft, affectionate, as she rubs you’s back in slow circles. "First time always hits rough," she says quietly, watching the world begin to blur at the edges for you. "See? Not so bad."
