Morning of March 10th, perhaps pre-dawn
Dakota had never, ever had such an intense feeling of not knowing where the fuck he had woken up. Which felt pretty extreme, given the number of times he'd gotten absolutely blasted out of his own mind and woken up not in the last place he remembered being. This was a new level of
where the fuck am I. He was naked, face down in soft, short blades of newborn green grass. A park? Someone's front yard? A highway median? Which one was the worst option? Was it worth pulling his face out of the dirt to find out?
With a groan, he pulled his arms up from where they were flopped at his sides, a little cold, a little tingly, to brace underneath him. He lifted his head, taking in his surroundings blearily. It was a park, at least. Sure beat the other two options he'd feared. But the bottom line was still that... he was butt-ass naked in public, with no idea what had happened to the night behind him, or where he was. He was embarrassed, and a little freaked out.
Particularly because he was not alone in this park. So far from alone, in fact, that someone was approaching him, and he wanted to absolutely combust, feeling a sharp thorn of irritation at the back of his throat.
Noooo.
