Ray was lying on his back, a cigarette in his mouth, wearing only a pair of boxer shorts. His eyes fell on Black, who was lying next to him.

"Shall we go to Yolo tonight?" He asked.

"Alone or do you want to ask the others to tag along?" Black turned to Ray.

"We could at least ask them, right?” Ray asked. A knowing smile formed on Black's face. 

"Then you ask around, I'm going to take a shower in the meantime and then I wanted to help Mew with something downstairs." Black had almost moved in with Ray by now, they'd had this arrangement between them for a month. It was convenient and Ray told himself with great success that it distracted him from his unrequited feelings. But it didn't make the dull feeling inside him go away entirely.

Of course everyone was there, even if Sand wasn't really convinced at first, Summer quickly persuaded him to go to Yolo. Longtae also wanted to come along, which completed the disparate but now very close group of friends. It was a fun evening, and as usual everyone got along very well. While Top and Mew joined Boston and Nick playing pool, Black and Ray seemed in their own world, dancing to the music together.

“Oh really?” Summer's eyes grew big, as she listened to Longtae telling her another story from his job at the rehab center, of course without using any names. “I could never work in that field.”

“You get used to it, and I love helping people get better.” A smile formed on Longtae's lips as he thought of his job. It was like his calling, something he never knew he needed until he tried it.

“Sand, don't you think Longtae is amazing for doing this job?” Summer turned to her boyfriend.

“Yeah totally,” Sand seemed absent, he didn't even turn to Summer, to answer her.

“Okay?” Summer shook her head, then turned back to Longtae to continue their conversation.

Black and Ray, arm in arm, dancing with the biggest smiles on their faces. They had barely any space between them, their hands were all over the other's body. And from the distance Sand's eyes were glued to them, watching their every move, while downing one beer after the other, getting more drunk by the minute.

“Let's dance.” Sand's words were slurred as he approached Summer. He was swaying, and could barely stand on his own feet.

“Sand, my god. Why are you so drunk?” She lay a hand on Sand's cheeks, a concerned expression forming on her face.

“Nothing. Can we just dance please?”

“I think you should go home, love.” Summer brushed a strand of Sand's hair out of his face. “You're very drunk.”

“I can still dance…please….Summer…”

“Sand, you can't even stand properly.” Summer gave him a kiss on the cheek. “Sit down, I'll get you a glass of water okay?” She turned to Longtae. “Will you watch him for a minute?” Longtae nodded, sitting down next to Sand.

“Ray?” Summer put a hand on Ray's shoulder.

“Summer? What is it?” Summer swallowed. She knew that this could potentially go very wrong.
