Jules had no idea that there would be so much tension between the two girls despite having caught a whiff of it by the glance they had briefly shared. Maybe she wasn't as astute as she gave herself credit for. Wondering if there was a story she didn't know about, she cast a glance at Claire to see if she might give her some hint.
"Well, we were going to play a game," Jules said from behind Sara. She didn't know the other girl very well but the setting gave her some leave to be bold. Hence, she leaned close and words were a bit breathy. "But, we needed another team to play against."

Tracey shifted from foot to foot as she looked at Sara. Chewing her bottom lip, she could have kissed Claire when she broke in with her question. Turning to her, a perfect excuse to turn away from Sara, Tracey fished around in her bag.
She pulled out a glass vial in the shape of a heart. The liquid inside was a shimmering red and had the faintest of glows in the dim light. "It does a few things. First, it lowers inhibitions allowing the imbiber to feel more relaxed. Second, it's heightens sensation and makes the body more sensitive to tactile sensations. Third it makes you feel happy and carefree."
Tracey had been tempted to drink a pot of it after the Howler from her mother. However, having seen Heidi's battle with her additions, managed to fight off the impulse. The last thing they needed was Tracey starting down that dark path when Heidi had finally beat her addictions.
The thought made her so proud of her girlfriend. But, the thought of Heidi while standing so close to Sara made the tension even worse for Tracey.
