The little bow was a nice gesture...if you were trying to piss Raisel off. He twitched, seeing Max treat him that way. But his hands were full and he heard Josh call out to him, pulling him back to reality. "Fag..." he muttered before slipping away. His friends accosted him the second he got away and took their drinks.

"What the hell was that?" Josh asked. "Someone you know?"

Raisel shook his head in response. Better to say he didn't than have to explain. He took a great gulp of his drink, feeling the liquor burn his throat, but he liked that. They slipped away to the dance floor and Raisel felt his drink go to his head quickly, so he of course got another. The girls kept trying to dance with him, but the more tipsy he got, the more they pissed him off. He just wanted to hang with Josh and get drunk so he found himself at the bar again on his third drink before long.
