'Happy Unity Day!'

You smile at your friends, huddled together around the roaring campfire. You'd been out hunting all day, and it seems like the festivities have already kicked in. The camp is a blur of sound and movement, everyone laughing and shouting and running around. They're all clearly wasted. You laugh slightly, settling down beside Jasper, who hands you a canteen

'Here you go gorgeous, now it's a party'

You giggle, blushing slightly as you take the canteen, bringing it to your lips. The moonshine burns in your throat, but as soon as it's down you get a rush. Everything hazes slightly around the edges, and the light of the campfire becomes brighter, everything in warm shades of brown and orange. Well, almost everything. John Murphy's bright blue eyes meet yours from the other side of the campfire, before quickly flitting away. You look down, heart pounding in your chest. This does not go unnoticed, even while wasted Jasper is incredibly perceptive. His arm wraps around you, his speech slurred and goofy grin in full view.

'Always one to go for bad boys huh (y/n)?'

You blush, shoving his arm off. He knows you too well, having been your best friend since you were kids. His arm snakes back up around you laugh, having given up on trying to get him off of you. You notice Murphy watching you and Jasper with interest, something alien flickering in his eyes, and heat rises to your cheeks. Jasper groans

'I'm getting second hand embarrassment from you (y/n)'

He looks up suddenly, arm leaving your shoulder.

'Let's play a game!'

Everyone nods, except for Murphy, who just sits there looking bored. Jasper winks at you, the familiar smirk on his face that means he's about to do something crazy. Or stupid. Or both.

'How about... spin the bottle?'

Yep, this is both.

There's cheers and nods of assent, and you glare Jasper down as he beams at you.

'Let's hope you're lucky tonight'

Maybe not so lucky. You've had to watch a drunken Jasper make out with Octavia, kiss Clarke, and watch Murphy kiss Bellamy. The last one was interesting, and not unpleasant to watch, especially when Murphy fixed his stare on you as he pulled away from Bellamy. Jasper nudges you

'Okay, (y/n) spin the bottle'

You groan 'Again? Clarke tasted like Monty's algae!'

Everyone bursts out laughing as Clarke pouts at you in mock offense and Monty gasped

'Don't diss my algae!'

You ruffle his hair 'Wouldn't think of it'

You turn your attention to the bottle lying in front of you, taking a deep breath. You spin it, and it tinkles as it comes in contact with the uneven ground. It spins a few times before landing on Murphy. Your hearts starts pounding as Jasper gives you 'That Look'. The look that says 'See how right I was? Now you have to kiss your crush, who, by the look on his face, definitely does not want to be kissing you back, while we all watch'

You look at Murphy blushing. He groans, standing up and moving closer to you

'I'm too sober for this'

You shrug, trying to ignore the drop in your chest, followed by the burning behind your eyes. Okay, that's just pathetic, who cries during spin the bottle? You force yourself to calm down, and your resolve hardens. You hand him the canteen, rolling your eyes

'No one said you had to stay sober'

He looks at you for a long while, icy eyes burning into yours, before taking the canteen. He takes a long sip, and when he lowers his head he almost appears to be smiling.
