Blake's POV
I walk out of the building holding a cigarette in my hand, I check my pockets searching for my lighter no where to be .
"Shit" I whisper to myself looking around for someone to ask. I look over to a group of men walking away from the bar and one of them holding a pack cigarettes in his hand. I start to walk over to them and tap the one on the shoulder.
"Do you have a lighter I can borrow" I ask holding up my fag towards him.
"Ye sure" he puts is hand down his pocket and comes back up with a black matte lighter. He lights it up for me.
"Thanks" I turn back around and take a long drag. I see my friends making their way out as well. I go over and join them'
"Blake could you blow it someplace else it stinks" Ivy says fake coughing as we walk down the sidewalk.
"I'm so sorry my highness I will do a better job next time" I sigh wrapping my arms around her shoulder. They all laugh, I throw the fag onto the floor after I finished.
"Do you want to go in here" I point to the new bar we're standing outside of.

"We all might go back home it's 2 am Blake we're not 16 anymore" Ash says opening the door to the taxi right next to them "maybe another week" she climes into the cab and drives off. I'm left by myself so of course I'm going to end up steaming my head off.

Alex's POV
It was mine turn to go to the bar for another round we decided to go in the new one down the road. "2 beers and 4 tequila shot mate" I ask the bartender as I sit on the stool, I look over to my left to see the same girl from the other bar. "Looks like your friends left you en" she looks up to me with red eyes taking a sip of her drink.
"Yes they deed in fact".
"You British?" I ask her, her accent is very strong though being in California.
"Yes from North London but my family kick me out so I moved here to live with my auntie but she left so it's just me now" she babbles on, resting her head on her hand. I finally see the bartender coming towards me and places the drinks in front of me.
"Cheers" I thank him, I hold the two bottles in one hand and get the shots standing on the palm of my other hand "I see ya soon Miss?".
"Reeds, Blake Reeds" she responds putting her black hair out of her face.
"Alex, Alex Turner" I nod, I make my way back to the table with a smile. I place the drinks back down making the boys smile.
"What took you so long" Jamie asks taking a sip of his beer. I look towards the bar to see that the girl has gone.
"The bartender was slow that's all" I reply sliding into the booth.
"To our new album" Matt holds up his tequila shot in the air waiting for us.
"To our album" we all say then sallow the burning sensation.
