||Holland P.O.V||
The music blared throughout the club as I wipe off all the spilled beer on the bar tops. I look down at my feet and adjust my black apron.
"Holland-Rose!" My boss yells from behind the bar. Ugh. I hate it when people call me by my full name.
"Coming.." I sigh and put down the cleaning rag i was using.
"Ah, there you are Holland." He smiles slightly "I need you to get some more wine from the cellar."
I nod and head to the cellar. The light is at the bottom so I go down the stairs, being careful since it was pitch black.
I really do hate my job. I'm a bartender at this run down club in Brooklyn, for an unknown club it has always got people in it. It's a pretty good pay and I needed the money.
I reached the bottom of the stairs and switched on the light, it flickered a bit before it dimly lights up the room.
I turn around to see a couple practically eating each others face off. Gross.
"Get out." I said slightly grossed out. The couple quickly got dressed and the girl picked up her heels and left.
I watched them leave and picked up the crate of wine near the steps.
I shut off the light and head back up to continue working.

"Could a beer please?" Someone sitting down at the bar behind me said.
I spun around to see who was ordering. He had dark brown hair and he was extremely good looking. His eyebrows of course, were on fleek.
"Sure." I smiled slightly and turned back around to the drinks.
I grabbed a bottle of beer and poured it in a glass. When I reach over to put the bottle in the bin, my elbow knocks the glass of beer over and glass goes everywhere.
"Just my luck" I mutter and bend over to pick up all the glass.
"Nice view.." A voice from behind me says and I immediately stand up and turn around realising what he meant. It was the good looking guy with the great eyebrows smirking at me.
"Asshole." I roll my eyes and continue picking up the glass pieces. He joins me on the ground and starts picking up the glass.
"I'll do it." He half smiles and picks up the rest of the glass.
I stand up and mop up the rest of the mess.
"Sorry about that" I smile and put away the mop. "It's fine" He returned a smile "I'm Jack by the way."
Jack. Suited him. "I'm Holland-Rose. But uh call me Holland. Please." Jack laughs. "Okay. Holland-Rose."
I poured him another beer and we exchanged numbers.
He stayed with me until my shift ended and we walked out together.
"Need a ride? He took his car keys out of his pocket and unlocked his car.
I looked down the road, my house was only a few blocks away.
I shrugged "Sure" Jack smiled and opened the door for me. I got in and he got in the other side.
It took longer than it should've to get home. Jack took a lot of 'detours'.
After a while we finally pulled up in the driveway. "Thanks for bringing me home" I smiled
"Sounds like were just coming home from a date" Jack laughed, I laughed a bit too.
We talked for a bit before I went inside. "I better go in. It's getting late and my parents would be worried" He nodded "Alright, well seeya around, Holland-Rose." He smirked and walked down the driveway to his car.
Urgh. "See ya Jack-Ass." I smiled and watched him drive off.
I shut the door behind me and walked up the stairs quietly trying not to disturb my parents.
As I got inside my room and laid on bed, my phone vibrated on my nightstand. I picked it up and read it.
Jack: Good night, Holland- Rose ;)
I rolled my eyes and replied
Holland: Goodnight Jack-ass ;)
I smiled slightly and put my phone down. I shut my eyes and went to sleep.
