After Rhen’s third shot she could finally feel the warmth of the alcohol coating her veins and numbing the pain from the wounds. She laid her head on Celeste’s shoulder. A part of he needed to simply breath her wife in after the close call. She laughed lightly and whispered to Celeste, “I thought there was a hot tub packaged up in this celebration”<br/><br/>She watched the others, exchanging casual conversations while looking at the untouched shot glass laid on the corner of the table for Nadia. Rhen sighed, she worried about Nadia overworking herself. Something Rhen noted to keep an eye on. In the meantime, Rhen collected enough energy to slide from the stool and make her way to the snacks. She pulled chips and spinach dip from the cabinet walking back towards her seat when she heard Nadia’s voice coming down the stairs.<i>Who is she talking to? </i>She looked towards the doorway waiting for her to come in and join everyone. What she didn’t expect is what happened, as soon as Nadia turned the corner it was clear she was zeroed in with purpose. Rhen saw the look of panic on her face. “Nadia? What’s going on.. are you okay?”<br/><br/>Rhen laid her chips down on the counter and pressed her brows together. Waiting to learn about what has impacted Nadia in such a way that she managed to plow through a person and appear stunned.
