Thread: Chasing the High || Hikari-Koroki & PressHeart

The group was half-way through their first drink when Zak, Ben and Maci's phones all chimed at the same time, the same sound. Maci was the first to reach her phone El's coming out... She let the sentence hang in the air, a smile on Lauren's friends faces began to grow into a wide grin I told you he'd be coming Zak grinned giving Ben a playful shove Tonight's going to be wild Lauren.... don't get too scared though another teasing quip from her friend. Oh shut up Zak. She won't chicken out. Right Laur? We'll be here for you just... hang on tonight and it'll be worth it Maci gave her, her warmest and most convincing smile. Maci knew that Lauren was a little bit button down and had hoped that by introducing her to El she'd be more inclined to hang out with them as a group. He needs the bar ad- The wild haired girl begun before her phone chimed again Never mind he just grabbed it from my phone Time had passed since the last text. Ben, Maci and Zak were all on their second drink We're not going to spend all night in this bar are we? Ben griped Not that I don't mind spending time with you guys his eyes glancing over to Maci as he said that It's just that... It wouldn't be the first time El hasn't shown up! And with that Ben's phone chimed. I'm here was on the screen, flickering before BZZRT it crackled and shorted out and just as it did a satchel thumped on the middle of the table. A man was standing just in front of the group table. My phone! Ben called out glaring to the man. El wasn't particularly tall around 5 and a half foot, with short messy blue hair. His eyes were odd instead of whites was a pale blue Much like his hair while his irises were a burning orange, they were clearly augments. He dressed in a worn and torn pair of black denim jeans which worked well with his loose tank-top and sleeveless vest. The top allowing him to show off the tattoo that ran from two dots on the side of his neck, thorny tendrils spiraling chaotically down his arm and ending at the wrist. The fact that you guys use phones still... El's voice was filled to the brim with confidence that seemed to hang in the air around him. I brought you guys a gift anyway to say sorry about last time. Business was urgent. The light-blue hair bobbed as he nodded. Is it what I think El? Maci asked excitedly, already reaching for the satchel. El merely raised an eyebrow Depends what you think it is Maci before he looked to the table and frowned You guys didn't even get a spot for me. Oh well guess one of you will have to sit on my lap He teased but then stopped as his gaze fell on Lauren Maci. Is this Lauren? El seemed quite familiar with the group but it was Zak that answered Yeah Laur finally came out with us. Perfect night too knowing you Maci got off her seat and El sat down before pulling Maci onto his lap and leaning over towards Lauren You've got good friends. They know how to have fun. He gave Lauren a gentle smile, completely aware of how out of her depth the blonde was. As they spoke Maci reached again for the satchel and pulled out a small black rectangle How much did you bring? Maci asked looked to El, fiddling with the box to get it open 15 Vials. That's 3 each. If your friend is up for it he looked to Lauren while saying this. Inside of the black rectangle laid 5 vials clipped tightly into place. They were filled with a Neon-blue liquid that seemed to shimmer. Under neath was a strange tube that had a mouth piece and looked like the vials would fit inside it perfectly. Maci had already picked out one of the neon vials and the strange tube. With one arm laying over El she exhaled put the piece to her lips, pressed a button and instantly the vial emptied and Maci's chest begun to swell with the inhalant.
