INT. CHATEAU MARMONT - NIGHT

James and Noah sit among the city's biggest STARS. Although mid-meal, James still looks around in awe. 

NOAH - So is it everything you expected? 

JAMES - That and more!

NOAH - Keep up the work, and you'll be a regular here. I promise. 

Noah holds out his glass for a cheers. Right before James connects his glass... DING -- Noah gets a text. He quickly checks his phone and James retracts his drink. 

NOAH (CONT'D) (reading phone) - Remember Edan? 

JAMES - From that one night at Corey's house? 

NOAH - Exactly. He just invited us to Bootsy's. Maybe we could head there after? 

James considers this for a moment. 

JAMES - Corey won't be there, right? 

NOAH - That old hag? Please... And even if he is, I'll protect you. 

Noah winks to James. James smiles from his reassurance. 

JAMES - Fuck it! Why not? 

NOAH - That's my James. 

Noah and James cheers. CLINK.
