Waking up to her 1 bedroom apartment with a small stumble Klaire jumped out of bed forcing herself to the door that banged loudly, she opened it, not bothering to ask who it was or put on some shorts as she was only in an oversized shirt which reached up to her mid-thighs.

"Jesus Klay! what took you so long?" Amy pushed Klaire to a side walking into the room and plumping on the couch. Klaire locked the door and joined her on the couch flipping through the channels on TV, "No good morning? Or Hi Amy would you like some breakfast?" Amy tries to impersonate Klaire who looks at her not saying a word, with a large sigh Klaire gets up going to her coffee machine to get her friend a coffee,

"Here. Now what do you want Amy?" she asked handing Amy the cup of coffee, "atleast I get a coffee" Amy muttered sipping on the coffee as she let out a 'hmmm' at the sweet taste,

"So-" Amy starts keeping her cup on the table and turning to face Klaire fully, "I got a hot date. and I mean like a 10 out of 10 hot date. he wants to meet me tonight at Chery's but my big ass boss Samuel decided to give me a night shift today because of some big mojo guy showing up" She got down to her knees in front of Klaire which started to freak her _Klaire_ out.

"Could you please take my shift tonight? I promise to give you 70% of tonight's salary and you get to keep all the tips" She joins her hands holding them up above her head in a bowing manner,

"Hell no!" Klaire screams getting up, "That place you call a restaurant is nothing but a place for people to get fucked up. I will never go to a shitty place like that. NEVER!" she says swinging her hand side to side as she walks to her room, Amy hot on her tail,

"It's just tonight. please, Klay. this date means a lot. you know how hard I had with Gary" This took something out of Klaire. Gary was Amy's boyfriend once upon a time. when they broke up after 3 years of dating Amy was left heartbroken she spent all her nights drinking in Klaire's apartment and had a lot of sleepless nights.

Turning to face Amy who is in tears Klaire brings a small reluctant smile grabbing Amy's hand in hers gently,

"Alright, I will take tonight's shift. but you need to bring me back my favourite from Chery's" Klaire demands, Amy's eyes light up with happiness as she attacks her friend in a bear-squeezing hug,

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" she screamed happily, "one more thing" Amy added as Klaire was starting to regret taking up on her offer, she rushed to the kitchen grabbing the bag she had brought with her when she came over,

"Samuel insisted we wear this for tonight cause of this VIP bozo" She pulls out another bag handing it to Klaire, Curious, Klaire opens it to find a really short dress, it hardly covered anything, with only strings holding the dress together,

"I am not going to wear a fucking slut's dress Amy!" she booms tossing the dress aside, Amy picks it up laying it down on the bed,

"How about 80% of the salary? you know tonight's shift is so important I got Samuel to agree with me and give me 1000 dollars just for tonight, meaning you would get 800 dollars just for one hour of serving drinks" she says in a rather mono-type tone, like she sang a song of harmony, Klaire thought about it for some time,

She was running low on money to pay for her tuition and 800 dollars would be more than enough to last her for the next few weeks, and there was no way she was going to call her father and ask for money,

She stopped talking with him when she left and ran off to France 6 years ago, she was able to get a fake identity and stay hidden cause she hated how her father treated her, just because Klaire turned out to be a girl and not a boy like her older brother.
