Caffeine Freak
Two Thousand Club
"Truly an emergency." Jack rolled his eyes, taking Imogen's hand and shouldering through the front door. The evening air outside was chill enough to make Jack regret not bringing a jacket, but his fast-pacing heart compensated pretty quickly. Walking back towards the place that had drained him over the past few hours wasn't exactly a pleasant feeling, but he managed to find reconciliation in the fact that this time he wouldn't be lectured at. Unless Todd decided to bug him about commitment.
Todd's dorm wasn't particularly hard to find when they got there, aided by the fact that lights and bassy music were blaring out of it. Jack began to wonder how the party wasn't being shut down by noise complaints, a mystery that was solved when he pushed open the door - as it seemed every possible neighbor was already at the party. The dorm room was just shy of a penthouse suite, another reason to be salty that he hadn't ended up in one - although Jack supposed that if he did, he wouldn't have met Imogen. Brushing the existential question of fate aside, Jack straightened to address Todd, who expertly weaved through his crowd of guests to greet the duo.
"Hey-hey! You guys made it! Wanna drink?" He presented two beer cans.
Jack shook his head hesitantly, managing to speak over the slightly deafening sound of pop music. "Uh, no thanks, To-"
"Great, there ya go. Now go mingle!" Todd turned around and dissolved back into the crowd, somehow putting the can Jack's hand when he quite clearly had no memory of extending it.
