"She's too young for you," Luther said from behind as I watched a dancer on the stage. "What's Holly going to think?"
I rolled my eyes. "Nice to see you, too, Luther."
"What do you want?"
"For you to stop hovering like an ambitious stripper and sit down with me," Luther complied, and I drew my attention from the dancer. "How long have you been here?"
"A year, thanks to you," He huffed.
Shit.
"I'm sorry, Luther. I know that couldn't have been easy."
"I thought everybody was dead." Commotion began on the other side of the bar. Luther sighed. "I gotta go,"
I grabbed his jacket before he could leave. "Luther, wait. Look, I get it, okay? I know what it's like to be stuck in time thinking this is how you're gonna live out the rest of your life; on the run, not knowing if you're ever gonna see the people you love again, to be in an unfamiliar world. But Luther, you're not alone, okay? We have to find the others. Holly's too weak to be traveling, and I need help. The world ends in ten days. I have no idea how to stop it."
"I don't give a shit," Luther scoffed, walking away.
I jumped up and followed him. "What the hell is wrong with you, Luther? I just told you the worlds gonna end in ten days."
"Yeah, so? You're always saying that." He tried to walk away again, but I grab his arm.
"And so far, I've been right."
"Look, you wanna go save the world? Knock yourself out; I already got a job-"
"-Wait, you work in this shithole?" I asked, cutting him off.
"Yeah. My boss owns the place; I'm his body man,"
I can't help but to scoff. "What's that? A masseuse or something?"
Luther growled and stood taller. "Okay, you can make fun all you want, but I take good care of Mr. Ruby-"
"-Wait, Ruby? The Jack Ruby, who shot Oswald?"
Luther nodded proudly. "The one and only,"
"Well, it finally happened; that gorilla DNA has taken over your mind."
