"I can't believe you really came out with us Liv!" Kayla beamed. She was one of the nurses that would be scheduled with Olivia, that actually showed up. "I can't believe y'all got me outside either."

Olivia hadn't had a good time in a long time but, she would let loose a little just cause Ms. Wanda asked her too. ACES New York in Queens was their destination for the evening, and it seemed like everyone was in the building. One corner had Fat Joe and Remy Ma, another corner had Dipset. The stars were definitely out tonight.

"Liv, come on let's get a drink." Olivia followed Kayla through the crowd to get to the bar. It was a lot going on in here, a tab but overwhelming. "This is too much. I don't know how y'all do it."

"What can I get you ladies?" The bartender asked, "One rum and coke. One greet tea shot."

After about an hour, Olivia would be dancing with the girls in the middle of the club. All eyes on them, including both the Nets and the Knicks.

"Ain't that Nurse Bae?" Cam Johnson asked looking over from their section. "Sure is" Ben nodded, "Clax better go over there before someone else does"

 "Sure is" Ben nodded, "Clax better go over there before someone else does"

Who wasn't looking at her? She was filling out the leather pants perfectly. Nic personally wanted to test those waters but, he wanted more from Olivia. She was the type that wasn't going for a one night stand. He would see just how the night went.

"That cute ball player is here." Jasmine mentioned to the group, "which cute ball player?"

"Yours Liv." They giggled at her expense. She was amused by it, "That man is not mine."

"Tell him that, he's coming over here." Olivia didn't bother to turn around, she knew that if he already saw her, he would make his presence known.

"I'm surprised to see you here Olivia."
"I could say the same but, you keep popping up Nicolas."

"What you been drinking?" He asked taking the place next to her. Olivia looked up at him, smiling. "Whiskey."

"You get down like that?" He was definitely impressed, not many women he encountered drank whiskey. "I've had two green tea shots, nothing serious."

"So you drinking juice? Got it." He smirked at her, he was trying to bait her and she wasn't going for it. "Leave me and my juice alone. What have YOU been drinking?"

Now their bodies were facing each other, taking up space at the bar but neither of them cared. "Some Hennessy, you want some?"

She scrunched her face up, instantly dismissing his offer, "I'd be trashed, no thank you."

"You got work tomorrow?" Olivia shook her head no, she didn't but she planned to go in anyways. "But, I'm still going in. One of them is gonna call out."

Nic admired that but he could tell that she was tired. "So you're probably leaving soon right?"

"Why? Are you gonna miss me?" He laughed, she laughed and it felt good. "I can always come see you at work."

"Yeah, you love doing that."

"Can't help it." He shrugged. "Before you leave, I'll need a dance."

"That doesn't sound like you're asking."
"I'm not."

Taking her hand, he lead her away from the bar, spinning her around, he stopped when her back was to his front. "You're awfully close Mr. Claxton." They grinded slow into each other. The vibes were immaculate. The DJ had the R&B playing and everyone was in their bag.

"Now what's it gonna take for you to go out with me Nurse Robinson?"

Nic wanted her, and bad. But he would learn that Olivia wasn't a fool and wouldn't play the game he did with the girls he ran in and out of his place.

"You would have to ask first. But I can tell you now, the answer is no." She laughed. "It's like that?" His ego was bruised but he played it off.

Turning to face him, she mirrored his pout, "Only for now." She kisses his cheek. "At least let me get your number first."

Olivia placed her number in his phone, making sure to say goodbye to the girls as she made her exit.

Let me know when you get home beautiful 🤍
