"Pass that here." You took the drink from Newt's hand, before chugging a decent amount down.

"I will never understand how you do that." Newt looked at you amused.

"You do it by building up tolerance." You shrugged, handing the glass back to Newt. "If you down the rest now, I bet you'll be able to down a whole glass next month."

Newt looked down at the half empty drink. Shaking the glass slightly, he watched the yellowish liquid swill around the cup.

"Fine." Newt took a deep breath before bringing the rim up to his lips.

After finishing the glass, he coughed violently. Leaning over to hit his back a few times, you laughed. "Cough up, chicken."

"Well then, how was it?" You asked, after Newt had collected himself.

"Awful." He grimaced.

"I wonder what Gally puts in these things." Newt spoken aloud, flipping his now empty glass jar around his hand.

"It's probably best we don't know." You smirked, having heard the rumours.

"God yeah, you're right." Newt placed the glass on the floor, and began turning around, so his side was against the log you were both leaning on.

"So, what do you make of the new greenie?" Newt asked propping his head up with his clenched knuckle.

You turned, to see the new greenie and Gally wrestling in the circle.

"He seems alright, I don't know him well enough to judge though." You learnt not to flinch as the greenie took a rough tumble.

"He was asking all about you, ya know?" Newt turned his glance back to you. His chocolate eyes seemed to melt in the blaze of the fire.

"Don't they all?" You sighed, propping yourself up with your elbows against the log. "They're always so fascinated by the only girl."

"I was tryna tell him about the runners, and he kept interrupting me, asking about you." Newt ran a hand through his dirty blonde hair. "'Who's that?' 'Why's she the only girl?' 'What does she do?' Bloody annoying."

"I'm just so captivating." You pretended to flip your hair over your shoulder.

Sending Newt into a burst of laughter.

"C'mon, I want to dance." You pulled Newt up beside you, before leading him closer to the bonfire.
