Ava couldn't help but chuckle as she pulled her frozen margarita close to her. It was rare that she got to unwind outside of her evening glass of wine with Maya. But today was different and after volunteering at one of the pride booths in the hot sun, she was spent and in need of some AC and a fun, cheesy alcoholic beverage before heading home and picking up takeout on the way to the apartment. "That one looks fun, a little too bright, bright enough to get me shit-faced. I'm telling ya, I'm one and done tonight, I gotta get home to Maya."
Rocky grimaced before breaking into laughter, the shot tasting of bittersweet acidity more so than it did an apple. He slammed his shot glass back down onto the table, licking the remnants of the shot from his lips. "That's sour," Rocky said through squinted eyes and puckered lips. "I think it was radioactive, will you tell me if I start growing an extra appendage?" He was already reaching for his next drink, sipping at the salty margarita to wash away the bitterness of the shot. "Noooooo," Rocky booed, almost spilling his margarita, "You can't quit on me after only one drink!"
