I watched as a bunch of people started to rush into the entrance, tonight was definitely going to a busy night. Especially because it was Friday.

"Great." I mumbled underneath my breath, a sigh escaping my lips.

Let me tell you little bit about myself. My name is Harley Walker and i'm 23 years old, I started working at this club about two years ago and haven't left since. My best friend Luna was the one who introduced me to this job, at the time I was really desperate and honestly didn't have much of a choice.

I was eventually going to leave soon when I was done finishing up school, I was in college to pursue my dreams in becoming a registered nurse. It was something that I always been passionate about, ever since I was a little girl, I guess I just had a thing when it came to helping others.

A little bit about my background, my parents were back home in New York. I have one older brother named Bryson and a younger sister named Callie, I was the middle child which was somewhat fun.... in some cases. Anyways, me and my family were extremely close and when I left it was really difficult to deal with. But I knew L.A. had better opportunities for me. Soon I would go back and visit them to see how they were doing.

My personality was a bit reserved, yet still outgoing. I was always observing the people and the things around me, I guess it had something do with me being an 'Aquarius'. I wasn't huge on the whole 'Zodiac Sign' thing, but whatever. Overall I was just a chill person and down for anything, someone you could always run to when things were hard.

I felt like I could put myself in other people's shoes because I've been through some messed up things in life and learned from my mistakes. I believed that everyone had a story to tell, I never judged someone before getting to know them.

Enough about me, let's talk a little about the club that I worked at. 'Club Space' was one of the hottest clubs in L.A., they had the best DJ, drinks, everything about it was poppin, even celebrities would sometimes make an appearance. I was working as a bartender there and it wasn't really that difficult, of course they'd be some creepy guys coming up to me and saying some slick shit, but I would quickly shut all of that down.

It was also a pretty cool job because me and Luna both worked as bartenders, always by each others side. Sometimes we would get in trouble with our boss because we were always 'Slacking' off, but we always got the job done.

"It's gonna be some fine men up in here tonight, I can just feel!" Luna shouted with an excited tone as she poured one of the drinks in the glass full of ice.

I just shook my head as I slid someone their drink and nodded my head in their direction with a smile before looking over at Luna.

"Girl, you crazy as hell." I said giggling

"Everyone turn up!!" The DJ shouted through the microphone as everyone in crowd was getting hyped and jumping around like crazy. 'Crybaby' By Megan Thee Stallion and Dababy started to play.

"Uh-uh, don't fuck me like that, fuck me like this!" Me and Luna yelled, singing the song to each other as we started twerking, sticking our tongue out. I couldn't lie...sometimes we would get kind of carried away and forgot we were even working.

All of that died down when I felt a pair of eyes on me..just our luck, it was our boss and had he an annoyed expression on his face.

"I'm not in the mood to deal with y'all tonight, get y'all ugly asses back to work." He said with a small smirk forming on lips and began to walk away.

Bryan was a strict boss, but I think he always had some type of 'soft spot' for me and Luna. Maybe he knew we were young and just wanted to have some fun, I mean who be strictly doing their job at this poppin ass club the whole time? Not I.

"His rude ass, he lucky I won't go over there smack those big ass barnacles off his neck!" Luna said with an attitude as she went to make someone's drink.

I just laughed at her comment, Bryan obviously didn't have any 'barnacles' just these big ass moles..I think they were, scattered around his neck.

The night had went by and everything was beginning to die down, everyone was leaving and the DJ started to pack up his equipment.

The bar was already closed, me and Luna were in the back where all the locker rooms were. It wasn't really necessary to have one, but no one was complaining. After we finished grabbing our belongings, we said 'bye' to all of our other coworkers before leaving the building.

Tonight was definitely exhausting,  all I wanted to do was take a warm shower and take my ass to sleep. I was happy that I didn't have work tomorrow, I was planning on catching up on some of my homework and just chilling.

As me and Luna walked outside to our cars, we hugged tightly.

"Alright, babe. Be Safe! You know Mothafuckas be crazy as hell at this time of night, I love you!" Luna said as she unlocked her car doors.

"I love you! Drive Safe! And Text me when you get home!" Luna nodded and I unlocked my car doors before driving off.

30 minutes later, I finally made it to my apartment complex. Everything was super quiet and dark, no one was going to be up at this time of the night anyways.

I got out the car as I had my purse on the right side my shoulder and made my way up the staircase towards my apartment door, I unlocked it and threw my keys on the little bowl by the door before closing it behind me.

"Alright..let me go shower." I mumbled to myself.
