He was standing on the roof with a red cup in his left hand and a plastic container full of beer in the other. The mass of attendees swarmed below to watch him cheat death. And almost thirty feet up with alcohol in his system, Eric was not feeling particularly keen about what he was about to do. Some idiot started a chant somewhere in the crowd to egg him on. He was a senior member now, and this was the Alpha Kappa Omega! Eric emptied the yellowish liquid into his cup and drank it up. The mass of lightheaded onlookers below erupted. “Fuck you!” he said, screaming at the crowd, and jumped.***The gathering went silent. Time stopped. It was almost silent, save for the screaming bunch located further back, near the row of bushes where Laila stood, amazed at this dazzling and terribly unsafe display of machismo. Her eyes followed the trajectory of the drop up to a quarter into it before she closed her eyes. She saw him sway while he was still up on the roof. Laila knew that if the idiot failed to supply just a little bit of the push he needed into his jump, he would miss the pool entirely.
