When Ava was invited out that night by her friends, she didn’t think anything of it. It was just another Thursday night after classes and shifts ended, a night to blow off some steam and get a few drinks and enjoy themselves for a few hours-- even if it did take some convincing on her part to go out. Ava was already knee-deep in schoolwork ad job hunting despite the semester just starting a few weeks ago, so really, she should just stay home and study, but her friends were having none of it. So once she caved (and had her closet raided by her friends so they could pick her outfit: a short little black skirt paired with a v-neck long sleeved white top and knee-high black boots) they were off.
She couldn’t even get away with only having one drink, because before she even finished it, another was being ordered for her and thrust into her hand, this one stronger than the last. She wrinkled her nose as the alcohol burned down her throat, hardly masked by the sweetness of the juice it’d been mixed with, but she endured it because, well, her friends were happy, and she genuinely did enjoy spending time with them. It was when they left her alone at the bar to go dance that it happened.
Someone ‘accidentally’ bumped into her, making her drink splash down the front of her blouse, effectively ruining it...and making it somewhat see-through. Before she could run off to the bathroom- or even outside to just go home- the man who knocked into her was there, closer than before. He had his hand on her arm then, his body pressing to hers, close enough that she could smell the alcohol on his breath and close enough that she was boxed in against the bar, making it basically impossible to escape or fight him off. “Let me get you out of here and out of that shirt, gorgeous..”
