-Friday-
-Diana's POV-

Charlie
A week till the party! Are u still going? Isn't Jane out of town this weekend, Wyd?!!!

Diana
Stop texting Charlie!! I'm working at the bar tonight!!!

I turn off my phone and hand a drink to a woman as I apologise to her for the wait. It's currently eleven forty and I have to work until twelve thirty. I've been here since nine and I'm exhausted, one week of detention down still another one to go.

Miss Snow and I have made small talk during detention and I'm honestly hoping I have her next week for detention too. I don't really want to go to that party with Charlie anymore but I'll have to come up with a really good excuse to get out of it.

"A beer please." A man sits down and I smile while nodding, grabbing a glass. Another man comes up beside him speaking in a different language before they both laugh.

I slide the man his beer and Floyd, another bartender here, walks around the counter. We talk sometimes but I mostly keep to myself, he's in his thirties and he has a wife and a son. He's really nice actually.

"What time are you working until?" Floyd asks.

"Just till twelve thirty. What about you?" I ask.

"Until we close. You hear that Jasmine quit last weekend?" He picks up a glass, wiping it dry with a towel and I shake my head.

"No, I just thought that she wasn't working this week." My phone rings in my pocket and I take it out to see Jane calling me.

"Hold on a second." I say to Floyd and he nods. I walk out the back door of the bar and answer the call.

"Jane?" I say.

"Hi Di, everything okay at home?" Jane asks, sounding a bit nervous, her voice just slightly shaking as she speaks.

"Yeah, I'm at work right now though. Is everything okay with you?" I ask.

"Mmhm, everything is perfect...I just Um...Never mind, okay? Forget it. I better go, I just wanted to check up. I'll call you tomorrow, bye Diana." Jane mumbles before hanging up before I get the chance to say goodbye. That's weird...Maybe she's stressed with work or something. I'll message her later just to make sure she's okay.

I walk back inside, turning off my phone and shoving it back into the tiny pocket on my pants. I spot Floyd arguing with someone. I walk around him to see who he was arguing with.

"Miss Snow?" I interrupt their argument, surprised but at the same time not at all that Miss Snow is arguing with someone. She looks at me with an angry look.

"Diana? What are you doing here?" She looks me up and down and I frown.

"I work here?.."

"Really? Well, I've been waiting the last god damn five minutes and I still haven't got a drink because this asshole has to ask everyone their life story when they ask for one." She snaps and I laugh a little, nodding at Floyd to tell him I got this one.

"Okay then....What can I get you?" I question.

"A mint julep." Her shoulders drop and she sits back down on the stool across the counter from me. I nod my head.

"You have some serious anger issues you need to sort out." Floyd grunts, turning away and I start making her drink before she starts punching people or something.

"Fucking asshole." Miss Snow raises her voice at Floyd as he walks away. Okay...

I finish making her drink and put it down in front of her with a smile.
