The backyard was a fragile bubble of quiet, a brief escape from the thumping music and shouting inside. It didn't last. Finn, your persistent rival from the grade above, lurched into view, the smell of spilled liquor clinging to him like a second skin. His oversized jeans and hoodie swallowed his frame as he closed the distance with that infuriating, loose-limbed swagger. Before you could react, his fingers closed around your cigarette and yanked it free. He brought it to his lips, the silver lip ring flashing, took a deep pull, and deliberately blew the smoke across your face before settling heavily onto the grass beside you. His brown eyes held yours, bright with a familiar, taunting challenge.
