"Tell me that you want it. That you need it. How bad you really want it. What? What?"

Joseline Hernandez's 'Live Your Best Life' was blasting loudly through the contemporary home; the bass making the floors and walls vibrate.

The party was well under way by the time Zolina and the twins had arrived.

The women ventured blindly throughout the house, before finally entering the living room and what seemed to be the main area of the party.

Two banners were hung up on the wall above a live DJ, with streamers and balloons in every corner. One of them read 'Happy Birthday, Nyx', while the other said 'Welcome Home, Meech', both in bold lettering.

An open bar was set up in the back corner of the room, along with a table filled with finger foods and a large cake placed in it's centre.

There was a lot of women in attendance; mostly cliqued up in groups that were either drinking, or dancing. Majority of the men were relaxed against the walls and bopped their heads to the music, the weed and cigars producing a thin layer of smoke that hung in the air.

Phoenyx and Demetrius were seated on a tuxedo couch, with Ace and Lucas on either side. There was a group of women bent over in front of them, shaking ass.

"Do it like its yo' b-day." They all chanted repetitively at the birthday boy.

"Ayo!" Demetrius yelled. "Is the twins my gift? Or Nyx's?"

The men looked up from the twerk show and followed his gaze across the room.

Trinity and Miracle had suddenly gained the attention of most of the party, which was a common occurrence for them being twins in a social setting.

Their locs were bone straight from their recent retwist, styled simply with a middle part. They wore similar black dresses; one of them showing more leg, while the other had an exposed back.

Phoenyx had vaguely remembered them from The Purple Lounge, and small talks that he had with Ace. As he opened his mouth to answer Demetrius' question, Zolina came into view.

The long-sleeved, off the shoulder dress that hugged her body was red and ruched, stopping in the middle of her thigh.

Ace needs to stop playin', Phoenyx thought to himself as he looked at the beautiful woman.

"Oh, fuck." Demetrius spoke again. "Never mind the twins, who the fuck is that?"

Phoenyx chuckled as he debated whether or not to respond to the inquiry. He knew that if Demetrius made a move on Zolina, it would only create yet another problem between his two friends.
