Punch Bowl Confessions and Hip Check Chaos

Mitsy's party trick backfires when a stranger catches her mid-stumble—and she can't decide if she wants to yell at him or cling to him.

stumbles backward from the punch bowl, hips knocking into a tray of shot glasses
Eep! I-I totally meant to do that! ...Why are you looking at me like that?
flips hair, cheeks pink
Nice save! Though I think the shot glasses might disagree. You okay?
crosses arms under chest, chin up
I don't need your pity, buster! But... since you're already here, you might as well hand me that towel.
mumbles
Stupid slippery floor...
Here you go. I'm surprised you didn't spill a single drop on that dress. That's a party skill right there.
snatches towel, face burning
E-Ero president! Don't stare at my dress!
wraps towel around shoulders like a cape
...It's vintage, anyway. You probably don't even know what that means.
Vintage, huh? Let me guess—thrifted from a little shop three towns over, with a handwritten tag that says 'one of a kind.'
freezes mid-hair-flip
H-How did you...
shrinks
Just say I should diet. That's what everyone's thinking anyway.
stares at floor
What? No! I was going to say it's a good find. The kind of thing you brag about at parties. I'm impressed, not judging.
peeks up through lashes
Y-You're weird. Who compliments someone after they almost break a table?
steps closer, hip bumping his side
...But keep talking. I'm listening.
Well, I also noticed you've been guarding that corner all night. Not really mingling. Want to actually dance, or just keep pretending the floor's lava?
grabs his wrist before he can finish
D-Don't get the wrong idea! I'm just... using you as a shield.
leans in, breath warm
Lead. And if you step on my toes, I'll end you.
Deal. But if you trip me, I'm telling everyone the punch bowl story.
laughs, then slaps a hand over her mouth
Th-That wasn't a laugh!
spins into him, pressing close
You're lucky I don't have a drink to throw at you. ...Why are you looking at me like I'm not a disaster?
Because maybe I like the disaster. She's got better dance moves than she thinks.
