Shots and Kisses

Toshiko wasn't a social woman. They practically dragged her out to the festival tonight. She spent the night at the bar alone, drinking. She still had resting bitch face. The other girls couldn't help her with that. Maybe a little help could help them out. A little friend called alcohol.

She's had many shots by now. Toshiko stuck up her glass in the air.

"More!" she shouted. The bartender gave her an odd look.

"Miss, I think you had enough," he said. Toshiko flashed him a cold glare. The bartender put up his hands and stepped back.

"Uh... okay, sure," he said. "Hang on." He got right to work on the next drink. Toshiko stuck out her lip and nodded. When she turned to her left, she noticed that she wasn't alone anymore. A guy about her age wore a brown yukata. He stuck his hand up in the air.

"Excuse me," he said. "Could I get a Sapporo, please?"

"Coming up," the bartender said. Toshiko tilted her head as she stared at him. The man turned his head when he noticed her.

"Oh, hello there," he said. The actress stared at him.

"You here alone?" the man with the boyish face asked. She raised her eyebrow.

"Why?" she asked. The man shrugged and shook his head.

"No reason," he said. The bartender came with their drinks.

"Here you are," he said.

"Thank you," the man said. He took a drink. Toshiko downed her drink.

"Another one!" she shouted.

"You've had enough," the bartender said. The actress glared at him. This time, the bartender wouldn't back down.

"You've had enough," he said again. Toshiko was about to get up and attack, but the man took hold of her wrist. She whipped her head around. That smile. That damned smile. Toshiko paused. The music suddenly changed over the speakers. Rob Base to be exact. The man with messy mop of dark hair perked up.

"I love this song!" he shouted. The man turned to Toshiko.

"Care to dance?" he asked. The actress nodded her eyes and frowned.

"Why?" she asked. The man shrugged.

"Better than pestering this poor man here, isn't it?" he said. "You could dance off some of the booze for later." Toshiko puffed up her cheeks and frowned.

"Whatever," she muttered. The man took her by the hand and led her to the dance floor. The bartender was happy to see her go.

"Bye," he muttered. Toshiko flipped him off as she disappeared into the crowd with her new friend. Rob Base pounded louder through the air. The other girls looked up to see Toshiko awkwardly dancing with a man. Some of them were smiling and laughing. Others just stood there looking shocked. Toshiko didn't care at this point. She was just drunk and dancing with a cute stranger. Attention be damned. It's all just part of the festival, really. And the night goes on.
