Who: Martin and Darcy What: Drink until the sun comes up Where: A pub in Boston When: Late night, Tuesday Rating: Don't let the kiddies read this one.
Belated Ballad had been playing shows in New England for the past few days. In fact, they'd been staying at a hotel in Boston for the past night, and after their Boston show, the band didn't even wait for Darcy to clean up THEIR merch and load it back onto the bus. Darcy tried calling Jordan's cell phone, but it went straight to voicemail. This was fishy.
After checking at the hotel and calling the other guys in the band to no avail, Darcy walked around the area near the venue, checking in a few of the bars. Thank goodness for her fake ID from Montana. She was willing to bet that the bouncers had never seen a Montana ID before in general, so she'd never been turned away from a bar before. She looked in a few bars, eventually settling in one, deciding that she wasn't going to find them. What a great night this was turning into. Getting ditched by her boyfriend and his band so they could party in Boston while she was left alone to her own devices.
Darcy sat at the bar and ordered herself a drink. She wasn't a heavy drinker, but she knew how to order and sound like she was old enough to be at the bar. She figured she was safe with ordering a cider - she was in an Irish pub, after all.
