When: Friday Night!
Rating: TBA!
Open? NO!



Dedicated. Carly was a dedicated worker. She had spent the prior days at the bar, getting in extra hours. She was in need of the extra cash. She seemed to just gain more expenses every day. She lived in an over-priced apartment, bought too many pairs of shoes, had a phone with too many features, and manage to spend more money on dog food then food for herself. Most of her money was in savings. But sometimes a girl just needs pocket change. Carly was that kind of gal. She needed to be able to treat herself to a spa day, or at least a mani-pedi every once in a while. She was willing to give up her Friday night to work. She had nothing better to do. Being a bartender, she tended not to drink too much anymore. The sights of drunk idiots, and blabbering individuals usually turned her off to looking that way herself. She considered herself a much classier Brit than that.

She slide her way in to the bar slowly, making sure some drunk baffoon didnt notice his usual victim for the night and try to stop her from getting to her final destination. Carly was keen on avoiding her customers outside of the work area. Who could blame her. She did take amusement in passing out the loser line every once in a while. Placing her purse and jacket in the back, she made her way behind the bar. A bright smile formed over her lips as she saw Leo.

"Present, love." she stated. She was there now, and in the zone to start taking orders. Lucking for her, most of the usuals had yet to come in. It was still early. Most didnt start drinking until at least nine or ten o'clock. Her back leaning against the bar, she sighed softly. "Hopefully its slow, but who am I kidding?" she said sarcastically, smiling at him. "How are you darling?"

Treat himself? That sounded like a nice idea, though what would he treat himself with was the real question. He could not help but laugh at her mention of shoes. Leo swore he'd never seen Carly wear the same pair of shoes twice, he was convinced she had some kind of addiction... or moonlighting at a shoe store. Walking over to the tap he swiftly filled a glass with beer before exchanging it for cash with a gentleman near by.

"Shoes..." He trailed off with a small smirk, "I did see a pair of Jimmy choo's the other day that were to die for!" He said flamboyantly with a faux, cliché, gay accent, nudging her with his elbow playfully. His Red Bull obviously taking its effect.

“I don’ know, aye” he said with a small shrug, “I don’t know how I would. I don’t really find enjoyment from buying things”

She laughed, refilling a couple of shot glasses. The night was going to be long, but at least she had someone to talk too. Drunks got rather boring after a while anyway. Carly cleared her throat, trying to ignore the drunk that was smirking at her. She laughed softly, glancing at him. "I think you would look so cute in jimmys." She was trying to be as honest as possible, but that never really worked in her favor. She laughed again, sliding some money in to the drawer.

"Well. It's better to save your money anyway." she said softly, pulling a few loose strands behind her ears. She loved her shoes, but by the end of a lond shift they were killing her feet. She usually had to either take a hot shower or stay off her feet for a while afterward.

"When is your birthday, anyway." she said softly and curiously. She had always wanted to plan a birthday party. She usually was the party reciever, not the planner.

Leoben gave a small nod, she was right of course. He should save his money; it was after all the responsible thing to do. The endless supply of cash he received from his dead dad's companies kind of stopped any satisfaction Leoben got from saving though. “I don’t mean to toot my own horn, but I’d look fantastic in some choo’s” He said with a small snort of laughter.

Noticing the incredibly creepy man smirking at Carly he raised his head and gave the man the brightest smile Leoben could muster. The man was obviously slightly unnerved by Leoben’s somewhat random smile and moved away from the bar. Letting out a soft chuckle Leo moved over to the sink to grab a wet cloth. When he had first started his first bar tending job somebody had told him, ‘Always smile, it scares people’, they were words to live by; it usually scared/confused the drunks every time.

He was just wiping up some spilled drink off the bar when she asked him about his birthday, “Carly! I am shocked and hurt that you would not remember my birthday” He said shaking his head sadly, “And don’t use the excuse that it was on February 15th and you didn’t know me all that well, cause that excuse will just not fly with me, missy” he said, waving a finger at her slightly.

Carly laughed, watching the guy walk away. "That guy looked like he was going to hurt you." she said, acting like him. "Ill stomp on yo face." she said in a grumpy, man voice. She giggled, pulling strands behind her ears. She loved when he played big brother to her. Sometimes it was nice to have someone other than your own brother pretend to be one.

"Im sorry love. I will make it up to you. Lets go out tomorrow and do something. Get dinner, or take out, and watch old movies." she said, stating the first things that came to her head. "I don't know. But you missed mine too so I guess we are even." she said, shrugging as she passed out a couple more beers.

Leoben could not contain his laughter at her 'grumpy old man' impression. He tried to keep a straight face, but the corners of his mouth began to involuntarily turn upwards until he was eventually grinning. Pretending to wipe a fake tear he smiled widely at her, "You'll stomp my face?" He threw his head back and laughed again, "What an absurd threat!"

After he'd calmed down from her impression, a laugh sneaking out every now and then, he gave a small nod, "That sounds good, as long as it's on a am laying on a soft and fluffy surface and no thought is required, I am in". Crooked smile returning to his face he could not help but think about how much he was looking forward to the idea of bludging tomorrow.

She laughed at herself. It was a pretty stupid impression, but one she figured would be possible. When people were drunk, anything could happen. She exhaled lightly, continuing to serve beers and shots here and there. "I know. I would laugh in the face of someone that said something like that to me." she said, laughing gently.

"That sounds perfect to me. I might just take a few days off and get a massage." she continued, letting out a deep breath. "Or maybe just got to the beach, or go to the city, or something!" she said. She needed a vacation.
