"Rick and Celine, We're not starting the game without you two, so hurry." The girl exclaimed from the living room.
"And we're playing kiss the bottle first." She added
My eyes narrowed as i observed Rick's body language. Frustration and irritation seemed to emanate from him.
The clench of his jaw and the determined stride he took towards the living room where the other teens were gathered. I stepped in front of him, blocking his path and forcing him to stop mid-stride.
My tone held a hint of sarcasm, but also a hint of genuine annoyance.
"Hold on a second," I said firmly. "I thought you were going to end this party. What happened to that?"
Rick shot Celine a sidelong glance as she held onto his wrist, clearly not amused by the physical restraint. His gaze lingered on her face for a moment, a hint of irritation in his eyes.
"I mean the game won't take long, Let's just get this over with. My mother won't be home in an hour anyway." he said walking away.
I sighed.

The living room was a hive of activity, with 10 young partygoers gathered on the floor in a circle around a single glass bottle placed in the center. Five girls, five boys.
The room was charged with excitement from the girls that cheered and giggled unabashedly, clearly enjoying themselves.
"Look at Dana, she's so ready to get ran through." Kennedy randomly scoffed
I covered my mouth in shocked from Kennedys comment.
"Kennedy!" I laughed
"Am I'm lying though? Imagine being that excited for a boring teenage game."

Suddenly My gaze shifted toward Rick, I noticed that he was watching me intently, taking in my reaction to the party scene unfolding around us. I rolled my eyes playfully, intending it as a lighthearted tease. To my surprise, a smile tugged at the corners of his lips, clearly amused by my expression.
Dana's voice broke through the noise of the crowd, drawing everyone's attention to Celine. "Oh look y'all, Celine Kinsley is staring at Rick," she chuckled, her words followed by a chorus of laughter from the group.
"I'm sorry but who are you again?" I replied
Dana's voice was filled with irritation as she directed her attention toward Celine. "You know what," she huffed, "why don't you spin the bottle first?"
