setting/connect: kinks welcome - your muse is at a party with Josh’s best friend, a person your muse has either been dating or flirting with for a while. Josh has been not so secretly jealous and with his friend drunk and passed out, he’s hoping something will happen between your muse and him.
Last party of Spring break before they had to return to class, the frat had taken it upon themselves to throw the party to end all parties. The house was packed, the yard, students had spilled out into the streets at some point and somewhere between his eighth and tenth keg stand, Josh’s best friend had gone down for the count. From across the party he saw his friend’s whatever-they-were completely unattended, and while the good guy in him said he should probably just leave well enough alone, he couldn’t help but want to strike up a conversation. They never talked, not really, and that was on Josh.
“You having fun?” Josh said as he swaggered over to the man, a red solo cup in either hand from the keg out back. Truthfully, he’d been avoiding the other all night, maybe he came off as standoffish, or like he didn’t like him, but that had never really been his intention. Distance was the key to not flirting with the other in front of his friend, because truthfully Josh wasn’t sure he could help himself. There was a code among bros, and the last thing Josh wanted was to overstep and do something that might have been disrespectful. At least, that was his thought process while he was sober, but now it was after one in the morning, most of the kegs were starting to tap out, and the party was still raging. “C’mon, it’s a party!” Josh yelled over the music, plopping on the couch next to the other and offering him one of his beers. “What are you, pissed that he passed out on you? He does that, trust me. Talks a big game and then he’s always the first one hugging the porcelain throne.”
