Len allowed herself to be folded in the other woman’s arms, a bemused smile painting her features softer. She held her own drink precariously between a pinched thumb and her middle finger, the red plastic of the solo cup compressing as it threatened to slip through her grasp and make a soft collision with the sand beneath their feet. Reaching up to return the grasp with her free arm, she scanned the crowd for the person the woman was intent on escaping, meeting the pursed lips and drawn in brows of a man who was trying to work out whether or not he was being slighted. “Too long,” she echoed sunnily, loud enough that she could be heard clearly, pulling away and looping a thin arm in the crook of her elbow to begin to lead her away, “I’ve got to introduce you to my boyfriend’s sister, from the first time I laid eyes on her I was like, there’s a lesbian you’ve gotta meet. Future wife material, and all.”

.

“  𝐎𝐇  𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐅𝐄𝐂𝐓  ,  sounds  exactly  like  my  type  .  ”  daniela  keeps  an  arm  linked  with  the  other’s  as  they  venture  away  from  who  she  is  attempting  to  escape  from  ,  relief  on  her  features  as  they  clear  the  dance  floor  to  the  other  side  of  the  space  .  “  an  actual  life  saver  ,  ”  she  says  with  a  laugh  and  pulling  away  gently  .  more  often  than  not  people  aren’t  the  type  to  be  put  on  the  spot  but  thankfully  this  woman  has  better  intuition  than  average  .  “  truly  ,  that  man  was  not  getting  the  message  no  matter  what  delivery  i  gave  him  .  can  i  buy  you  a  drink  to  say  thank  you  ?  ”

Dilan grinned, the expression half hidden behind the rim of her glass when she registered Daniela’s words. “As your honorary friend who has been married not only once, but twice,” she enunciated the word, trying to remedy the sloppy way that the syllables ran together and betrayed the fact that she was drinking. “I’d advise you to absolutely not rush it. Find someone you can’t imagine not being married to, the rest falls into place after.” She gestured, “On the other hand, I’m siding with your mother. Your genes are primo, you should be popping at least seven beautiful kids just as a service to the world.” Dilan leaned back on her hands, “Fuck, I’d even babysit.”

.

“  𝐒𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐍  ?  you’ve  had  too  much  to  drink  ,  ”  daniela  says  paired  with  a  melodic  laugh  .  in  her  hands  is  an  empty  rocks  glass  ,  quickly  refilled  with  one  of  the  tequila  bottles  as  part  of  their  bottle  services  with  the  cabana  ,  her  own  last  named  neatly  printed  on  the  label  .  “  i  think  my  mother  will  have  to  learn  satisfaction  with  having  a  business  woman  as  a  daughter  and  potentially  marriage  and  children  down  the  line  .  what’s  the  rush  ,  right  ?  unless  of  course  you  find  that  someone  .  ”  a  nod  to  the  quick  union  between  dilan  and  her  current  husband  ,  no  judgements  to  be  had  towards  her  friend’s  relationship  .  “  until  then  –––––  i’ll  keep  myself  entertained  with  bad  choices  .  ”

“That does sound pretty bad,” he agreed with a laugh. “If he comes by, we’ll throw it back at him. Start explaining a conversation,” he joked. Marcus shook her hand as she offered it. “It’s nice to formally meet you. And thank you,” he added, finishing off the glass in his hand. Marcus ran a clean kitchen, every dish prepared with precision. “When I joined, Laurie was really set on his menu. It took me a full week before I could convince him to adjust a few dishes,” he admitted, cupping the glass in his hand. “Had to get him to sit down and try it.”

who: open to all  

There was nothing shocking about how the party progressed.  His financial success had grown through curating and then exploiting the phenomena; playing into how revelers lost time when surrendered to spirits.   It was Laurie’s own thrill to stoke the flames of madness, playing among the people with the zeal of a Dionysian worshipper, smiling at a celebration full of life while his eyes stayed sharp and critical.  The moon was high in the sky and Laurie was set to a lean, watching a couple tumbling off the dance floor, limbs drunkenly tangled, hands around each other.

“Do you see that?” The words drip with indignation, coated with something slightly more surprised. “He thinks he’s done something revolutionary, leading her off that way.  Those fingers are so limp I doubt she even feels him on her neck.”  Laurie’s gaze turns sidelong, offering a smirk to his confidant.  “Maybe this party needs a better demonstration, hmm?”

.

“  𝐎𝐍𝐋𝐘  𝐅𝐈𝐕𝐄  𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐔𝐓𝐄𝐒  and  already  you’re  mentioning  hands  around  a  girl’s  throat  ––––  i  think  that  is  a  new  record  ,  laurie  .  ”  daniela  gives  a  coy  smile  over  the  rim  of  her  glass  as  she  glances  sideways  at  him  ,  taking  a  drink  to  quench  her  thirst  before  she  sets  it  down  on  the  hightop  table  between  them  .  eyes  flicker  over  to  the  subject  of  their  conversation  ,  nose  scrunching  in  distaste  at  the  sight  of  them  now  swallowing  one  another’s  tongues  .  “  they  look  made  for  each  other  if  you  ask  me,  equal  in  skill  level  and  no  idea  of  the  disappointment  in  how  unskilled  they  actually  are  .  ”

“The other day, I overhead a girl saying she went on a date with a guy who listened exclusively to 90′s rap and thought smoking weed made him badass,” he recalled, taking a sip of his drink. “He can’t be as bad as that,” Marcus said, though accepted his role as savior regardless. “You know, I don’t think we’ve formally met. I’m Marcus,” he introduced. “I’ve seen you Mercer’s from time to time.”

Event: Full Moon Party For: ​@danieladelon 

The ferry to Fiesta Keys had always been packed, but tonight was a special occasion. The boat rocked with passengers all aboard the small ride across the crystal blue waters over towards the island that dressed in neon for the night. Marcus sported a drink, shifting through the rows of seats, a familiar face found within the dozen. “Mind if I join you?”
