The two of you sat on the foot of your bed, you silently smoking as Nicole fumbled another cigarette out of her pack. You had ransacked Nicole’s mother’s stash of cigarettes a couple of nights ago.

“Light my cigarette, bitch.”

Nicole rested the cigarette in between her lips, waiting. The leopard print lighter was across the room. You sighed, looking down at the lit cigarette you had.

“Don’t be a fucking baby.”

Nicole rolled her eyes, suggesting you light her cigarette with yours.
