Ben and Barbara had arrived in Ben's car and now he'd left her alone to look for his friend. She stared at the decoration trying not to open her mouth in awe. There was everything you would expect from a NY party: red flowers in magnificent white pots that were lined up in front of every wall, tables full of silver plates with the most expensive looking snacks, fountains that were definitely not full of fruit punch and baskets serving what looked like French patisserie, purple lights that made everything and everyone look eerie yet elegant and sexy... Barb thanked the gods she had bought the dresses she tried on before.
She felt tempted to try one of those French desserts, she stretched an arm and someone snickered behind her back. A group of girls staring at her, whispering and giggling. She reached for the glasses instead and helped herself a drink from the bubbly liquid. It was delicious, she couldn't put her finger on what exactly it was though. Something mixed with strawberry.
"Ah, you found the fountain!", a skinny man with brown hair talked. "Be careful, miss... Some of my funniest moments came after drinking too much of this", he looked familiar, but Barb didn't know from where.
Ben laughed and hugged him by the shoulders.
"Barbs, this is the guy I told you about..."
"Ohhh, you were talking about me, Benny boy?", the guy gave Ben love eyes.
"All the time, babes!", the man said "awwww" and engulfed him in a tight hug.
What the fuuuuuckkk?, she thought. The guys seemed to know each other very well, Ben seemed happy and comfortable around the new guy. They soon started talking low and laughing at inside jokes. Until the girl cleared her throat...
"The name's Barbara! And don't worry I won't steal your man from you, dude."
"That's what everybody says, but truth is...", he leaned to whisper in her ear. "Ben's a slut!" she almost spits her drink.
"Hey, man! What you saying about me?"
"Just the usual, baby!", he played hurt, a hand on his chest and all that. Barbs instantly loved him!
"Yeah, whatever... Barbs, this is-"
"The kid from Jurassic Park!", she chirped. She finally recognized him and was immediately star struck! "OMG, I'm a huge fan!"
"Oh, God! When will I get rid of this curse, Ben? WHEEEEN?", he put in a disgusted face and screamed dramatically.
"Oh... I'm sorry! Don't you like when people recognize you from that?"
"What? No! I love it!", he grabbed her arm and started walking. "Come, walk with me"
Barbara turned her head to give Ben a confused look. He just snickered and shrugged.
"Baby, I was just pulling your leg! Recognize me from JP, The Pacific, a Cheerio's commercial... I don't care where from!"
"Roger that!" they were walking to a whole separate room on the other side of the venue. "And... where exactly are you taking me? I thought I was here with Ben"
"Wha-? And I thought you'd said you wouldn't mess with my man, bitch!"
"Heeeeey! I mean, not that I'm no bitch, but wtf?!", he laughed and squeezed her arm.
"Takes one to know one", a wink. "I'm taking you to meet the squad before you drown on that champagne and start taking your dress off"
"Oh, good idea!", she nodded and brought the drink to her lips.

I don't know how it happened, but from one moment to another I was sitting ON TOP OF A 20-STORY BUILDING with the one and only, the OSCAR WINNER Rami Malek himself and the rest of the cast of Bohemian Rhapsody, the biopic based on Freddy Mercury's life.
"Why didn't you tell me you were in BhoRap?!"
"I thought you already knew", Ben said matter of factly. "I mean, I played Roger Taylor, how could you have missed that?"
"Yeah, I must've fallen asleep during your parts", the boys laughed at my comment and Joe yelled:
"ROASTEEEDD!", Ben just rolled his eyes at me.
"Ben's famous for not telling girls his roles", Gwilym broke in. "But I'm pretty sure you remember him as Warren."
"X-Men?", Joe added with a hiccup. It wasn't even midnight and he was already drunk.
"Oh, no. I was never a big fan of X-MEN"
"What about The Pacific?" Rami slid in the conversation. A simultaneous UGHHH filled the table.
"Man, not again!", Gwilym slouched back with both hands on his head.
"Why?" I asked "What's with The Pacific?"
"Nononono, DON'T ASK!", that was drunk Joe pointing a finger at me.
"Well, Barbara... Let me tell you the story of how I was casted in The Pacific miniseries", collective UGHHH again. "Do you want the long version or the short one?"
"C'mon! You'll scare her off..."
"Long version it is, then!"
In the middle of that mess, I caught Ben eyeing someone on the other side of the room. I followed his sight and found a blonde girl standing near the entrance, she craned her neck as if she were looking for someone. Suddenly, he rose from his seat.
"I'll be back in a second"
"Yeah, yeah" Rami answered. "As I was saying... it all started in the year..."
"Is that his girlfriend?" I raised my palm and pointed at it with the other hand in the direction of the girl.
"Oh, who?" Joe perked up at the first sign of gossip.
"Why won't anyone listen to my story?" Rami whined.
"Yeah, man, so sad", Gwilym replied in a monotonous voice, then turned to Joe and I and inquired: "Who's Ben girlfriend?!"
"Umm, Barbs? I thought that was you" Rami said.
"Yeah, I thought the same?", Gwilym chimed in.
"Y'all are wrong, though", Joe whispered leaning on the table. We came closer to hear him better. "Ben's girlfriend is..."
The remaining three exchanged nervous looks. Joe looked back at Ben and the girl, then again to us.
"Ben's girlfriend is... ME!" Rami, Gwilym and I yelled at him for his dumb joke. "But you already knew that"
"But anyway...", I started. I wanted to make clear my position in this party. "I'm just asking because I don't want to be the reason why Ben's ass gets dumped or something worse"
"Nah, you're ok", Gwilym assured me. "As far as I know, Ben's single. So relax"
"Welp, whatever!" Joe burped and attempted to stand up "It's my party and I ain't spending it here sitting with you nerds...", he looked around and grabbed a blonde girl by the wrist, then made her spin elegantly. The girl let out some giggles, she was so radiant my self-esteem went down three levels. "May I, Rami?"
"Have fun, man!", he replied but then raised a menacing finger "but not too much, you two..."
"I'm coming for 'ya later, babe!", the blonde blew a kiss to Rami and then walked off with Joe by the hand.
I gave a curious look to Rami, "Oh, that's Lucy, my girlfriend. Sorry I didn't introduce you, Barbs"
"Don't worry! She looks kind" I gave Rami a friendly punch on his shoulder "and gorgeous, you lucky bastard!", he laughed sheepishly, I can't tell for sure but he seemed to blush at my comment.
"Barbs?", I turned around and saw Ben standing by the table. I was about to ask what was up when he smiled and tilted his face down a little, an outstretched hand in front of me. I smiled and took it.
"It'll be my pleasure, Ben"
