“you know what? sounds like a plan to me! as long as i get my credit if we win. i need my name on the project.” gripping the bottle of wine that was on their table for their consumption; she held it up before replenishing her glass and taking a sip. gazing at the canvas, she watched as he stroked onto the ivory surface with a red coated brush, her head tilted as she tried to figure out what he was drawing — it was obviously a body part, but she couldn’t pinpoint which it could be. “uh, i ain’t the most sober bitch in the room, but what is that suppose to be? a uterus?” capturing her bottom lip between her teeth, she held back a laugh and shrugged as she looked between her two assigned teammates. “i mean, sex also leads to children, so the vision was there.”

once 𝐂𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐎 heard the theme she and her group were assigned, she knew she was in for one hell of a night. by the time she sat, she was already on wine glass number two. raising her eyebrows at the male’s verbal approach, she let a soft chuckle fall from her evenly glossed duo. “i would ask you to expound on your inspiration, but i feel like i’ma need to be much more tipsy to hear what you have to say, basquiat.” a subsequent, yet good-natured roll of her eyes followed her statement. “how about we don’t take it so literal? i also don’t have a artistic bone in my body.”

𝐂𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐎 looked at the message on her phone before turning it face down on the table cause none of that was her business. “chile, the girls got the hard questions tonight.”

playfully, 𝐂𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐎’s face screwed up at the suggestion, but her features immediately became softer as she poked her bottom lip out. “you know what? i might get up there. i ain’t no bitch and i’ve always wanted to try.” she replied with a soft laugh as she looked over at the operator, who looked extremely bored. “nah, he might make an example outta my lil’ ass, look like he ain’t had no action all day. maybe if i get a few drinks in my system first. what you sippin’ on?”

after securing a basket of cheese fries, 𝐂𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐎 moved about the establishment, deciding to socialize and figure out what activities she wanted to partake in. her interest was piqued by the mechanical bull, and judging by the crowd it drew, she wasn’t the only one. “alright, who gonna get up there first?” 𝐂𝐀𝐈𝐑𝐎 asked the individuals in ear shot as she looked up at the intimidating mechanics. “i’ll be sure to record for the gram!”
