Why the Rush?

Dylan poured three vodka sodas on ice and passed a glass to Liwei.

"Congrats on your engagement to Jade," Liwei said sipping the drink.

"Thank you," Liam said leaning forward, taking a glass and putting the drink to his mouth.

Emily sat beside Liam, opposite Dylan and Liwei and tried to act normal.

Her eyes couldn't help but meet with Liwei and he adjusted his glasses, looking away.

Dylan felt the awkward silence, he looked between them and tried to figure out what was wrong.

"You're acting weird." he stated.

"What! No I'm not!" Emily blurted without thinking, drawing Dylan's attention.

"I was talking to Liam... what's wrong with you? Why are you doing that?" he said grabbing her foot that shook uncontrollably.

Emily laughed nervously and uncrossed her leg. Tugging at her short skirt, and moving in her seat.

Liam's eyes scanned her long legs and clocked Liwei checking her out. Liwei coughed and stared into his drink.
