Music contiued to blare as the people danced around freely. The club was more packed than normal but it helped. In a darker corner, a small crowd surrounded a table where two men were playing a game of willpower. 6 empty shot glasses were on the table as the crowd cheered the two men on.

Luke: You're still doing?

His challenger, a young man who had caught plenty of attention, smiled.

Hyde: You know it. Drink up old man.

Luke smiled as he took another shot. Everyone then turned to Hyde who smiled. He took a shot effortlessly causing everyone to cheer.

Luke: God damn, I can't see straight.

Hyde laughed.

Hyde: I couldn't see straight before we started. God damn that was some good shit that chick gave me.

Luke smiled as he reached for another glass. He tried to lift it up but couldn't. He was done for. Everyone turned to Hyde who shook his head. He grabbed the glass and took the shot. He slammed it down and looked at Luke.

Hyde: Looks like I win.

Everyone cheered as Luke handed Hyde the money. The music played but Hyde was too focused on counting his cash. $300. It was all there.

Hyde: Always a pleasure!

He stood up and stumbled back to his table. He sat down and watched as everyone danced on the dance floor. His eyes watched a certain woman move in her tight cocktail skirt. The way she moved had caught him in a trance. She had came here with her friends who had long since gone for drinks. Looks like it was his time to shine.

Hyde stood up and made his way over to the dancefloor where he found the woman. A beautiful blonde bombshell that had caught his eye when she first walked in. He finally reached her and slowly moved to the music. He was dressed in nice enough clothing and he was getting eyed by most every girl in the club.

He tapped her shoulder and offered his most charming smile.

Hyde: Can I cut in?
---------
Hyde buttoned his last button as he walked out of the bathroom. He looked around before heading back to the bar. The woman, Jane, June, Janice, whatever, walked out while straightening out her skirt.

Hyde reached the bar and ordered a bourbon. He could feel the effects of whatever drug the lady at the door had given him wear off. He got the drink and slammed it down in one go. He paid his tab and decided to call it a night. He stumbled out of the club, the music echoing in his head, and made his way down the street.

The cool wind hit him like a train and he was suddenly regretting not bringing a coat. He yawned as he slowly made his way to his apartment. It wasn't anything fancy but it was his own place to live. Technically it wasn't in his name but it didn't matter. As far as anyone was concerned, he was 21.

He opened the door and turned on the light before looking around. It was clean enough, he only really slept here, but he knew there wasn't any food in the fridge. He decided he didn't care as he landed face first on the couch. He was tired and the drugs had worn off. He ended up falling asleep on the couch as the TV stayed on showing reruns.
--------
Hyde woke up to the sound of knocking on his apartment door. He groaned as he rolled off his couch and dragged himself to his door. He stood up and straightened himself out before opening it. It was his neighbor, a girl who was his age but didn't know it.

Maya: Good morning!

Hyde smiled. She was a good girl with a bright smile and a kind heart. She was a Senior in high school and on the edge of her 18th birthday.
