"i'm actually fighting the next person to pull a brick that has anything to do with insulting or slandering me," maeve scowled as caspian laighed, taking a sip of his drink.
"the game is not targeting you, maverick. it's just your own bad luck working against you." maeve stuck her tongue out at him.
the game caspian had bought was jenga, but with a twist. each brick had an instruction on the block that you either had to follow or drink, or both. so far, jacob had been forced to do so many starjumps he thought he might have been sick, xolo had to do an impression of someone publicly, and taiyo had to post a terrible photo of the person to his right.
now it was maeve's turn, and with careful fingers, she extracted a block from the middle of the tower.
"down your drink. you have to be kidding me." maeve knocked her glass of strawberry wine down in one before rolling her eyes. "apparently the universe is out to get me."
"well, that was pretty impressive," xolo shrugged, topping up the glass. "and pretty hot."
"okay, my turn!" caspian interrupted as jacob elbowed xolo playfully. he took a block from the tower, turning it over. it simply read jacob.
"what does that even mean?" jacob whined as caspian laughed.
"it means you finish your drink."
"does everyone else have a brick?"
"no, where's the fun in that?"
the game continued for a long while, and by the time xolo knocked over the tower, the wine had settled as a steady hum in maeve's ears. he moved himself to sit at her feet, squeezing her hand gently as she smiled down at him, and taiyo cocked an eyebrow.
she knew what he was thinking. how insane it was to have this new and wonderful group of friends, all because of a chemistry reading nine months ago that maeve had come out of full of hatred.
she'd accepted long ago that she had pre-judged xolo, but she had never expected this. part of the reason it was easier to pre-judge people was because it made the time maeve spent with them more bearable. there was nothing worse for her than working on set for months if not years with people she would forget as soon as she moved on.
"what you thinking about?" xolo placed a hand on her knee gently.
"you," maeve answered honestly. "you're pretty okay, you know that?"
"'pretty okay' might be the highest regard you've ever given me."
"that's not true and you know it."
xolo rolled his eyes, kissing her hand gently and ignoring the way jacob and haven started bustling over something on the other side of the room.
"uh, hate to interrupt," lacy said with a playful grin, catching their attention. "but where are taiyo and caspian?"
"what?" maeve's eyebrows shot up. "did they go upstairs?"
"maybe we should leave them," xolo shrugged. "imagine how bad it would have been if someone came upstairs the first time we had drinks round at mine and jacob's?"
"god, i wish you hadn't given me either of those mental images." lacy put her hand to her head, wincing mockingly. "does that mean it's home time?"
"maybe in a little," maeve shrugged, clocking on to the speaker haven and jacob had been fighting to connect to. "we should dance first, though."
