"That look right there." He wrapped his loose hand around Kaleb's waist and spun him around to face Rude. "Now, just ask nicely and i'm sure he'll let you"

The mage squeaked a bit as he was whirled around, it certainly hadn't done his head any favours with the alcohol in his system. He ended up giving Rude an even more worried and pathetic look than the one he gave Reno. "W-would y-you be able to give me a ride home tonight? Please?"

He looked down at Kaleb and then over the blond's shoulder at Reno. "You're going to owe me later."
"You know i'm good for it."
"You'll get home Kaleb"

Kaleb blushed a bit and fidgeted, kind of wanting to lean back against Reno until his lightheaded feeling went away. "Th-thank you... I-I'm really sorry, I don't want to be a bother."

"Problem solved." He snagged a drink from another passing waiter. "Drink!"
Rude shook his head at Reno. "He doesn't need that"

Kaleb hesitated, not sure what to do and not sure if he could think well enough to make a decision for himself. He did manage to decide that leaning back into Reno would be a good plan and he did just that. At that point he figured Rufus had been wrong, Reno wouldn't be able to convince him to drink a couple more glasses, just a single one would completely do him in.

"Suuuuure you don'wan it?" He wiggled the glass. "It's really good i promise."

"What is it?" Kaleb asked hesitantly. Ideally he would like something that wasn't alcoholic, but he didn't want to get his hopes up. He was feeling rather tipsy as it was, and he didn't want to embarass himself too badly at his first company party.

"It's the bubbly stuff the Boss drinks when he wants an excuse to be able to be a b***h to people and blame it on the drink" He snickered as Rufus snorted at him and continued to sip his drink.

Kaleb frowned a bit. "That doesn't help..." He really didn't need any excuse to b***h at anyone, and Reno's description wasn't giving him any clues. He really wanted to hope bubbly meant some kind of soft drink.

Kaleb frowned more and gave Reno what was almost an accusing look. "Why did you promise it would be good then, if you don't like it?"

"Yer's sophisticated like the Boss and he likes it so you'd like it" He grinned. "I just don't do bubbles"

Kaleb blushed at being called sophisticated, it wasn't the first word he would use to describe himself. But being flattered didn't mean he agreed with Reno's logic. "I don't know if I should have any more," the mage admitted, although he was starting to get curious as to what the drink would taste like.
