Who: Jake and Juliet When: Backdated to after Juliet met Nike, 8th August. Where: Mitchell's bar What: Playing pool! Rating: A for awesome. And there will be swearing Status: Ongoing
Jake had been at Mitchell's place for a while now, just drinking the odd beer and playing pool with himself. Sure, he had to stretch a bit for some of the shots but he enjoyed playing and since it was only himself he was trying to beat, nobody was going to care if he fucked up the occasional shot here and there. Anyway, most of the time, he played well with a good eye for the angles he needed. Nobody else in the mostly-empty bar seemed to want a game, so he was content to take his time and play game after game.
When the front door opened, he glanced up every time, nodding in greeting to everyone he knew if they looked over and caught his eye. And then the door opened, and it was someone he didn't know, someone new. Tilting his head to one side, he watched the young woman as she walked into the bar and looked all round her. When she caught sight of him, he nodded and sketched a quick salute, kaltxì going unsaid for once.
