I sit in my bed with my legs crossed in front of me, face buried in my new book.

My bestfriend busts into the room, her eyes meeting mine the second I look over

"Tell me you haven't been reading books all day" she says

"I could but... I'd be lying.." I look up a her in my doorway

"Don't you have work?" She asks

I sigh "I was laid off, they closed down" I say disappointed just thinking about it

"Oh damn. Soo...you have no job" she asks

"Depends what your gonna say next" I look at her

"Well come to work with me and your gonna talk to my boss, Blanes. Your gonna work at the bar with me" she says

"No. Thanks though" I smile

"Come here" she says and walks out of my room into hers

I follow her, dropping my book and I see her going through her closet for clothes

"Put this on" she says, throwing a bunch of black clothes at me

"Where's the rest of the outfit?" I say looking at the clothes

"Change." she says and I trudge my way into the bathroom and change into it

It's a black leather tshirt that is also cropped just slightly and it zips in the middle, and black Jean shorts. Booty shorts.

Black fishnets and black boot heels

I look at myself in the mirror feeling totally like a hooker.

I walk out and my bestfriend Ari smiles at me

"Hot. Let's go" she says

I grab my brush to do my hair in the car and follow her out to her car

She drives us to the bar where she works and when she parts I look up at the lit up sign

'BLANES' it reads.

Isn't his name Ace Blanes..? Self centered much..?

Whatever

I hop out of the car and adjust my hair over my shoulders and we walk in

She holds my wrist pulling me through the crowd that fills the entire building

She pulls me behind the bar and through the kitchen

"Ok. Blanes is in his office right now" she says and opens the door to check

"Oh wait no he's not" she says and pulls me back behind the bar

"He's right there, backwards hat" she points

I look and when I tell you I saw the finest man I think I have ever met in my life..

He's wearing a deep purple, magenta like long sleeve dress shirt, and black dress pants and he's making it look too good.

His backwards hat pulls the outfit together

His muscles make the shit look tight in some spots and I find myself gawking at him across the bar

His hair comes out of the sides of the hat a little bit curling up around the side of the hat

"Is he nice" I ask without looking away

A guy looking like that has to be a sweetheart right?

"I wouldn't say nice" she says and tugs me towards him

"Blanes" she says plainly tapping his shoulder

"I'm busy Ari" he says with an attitude

He continues pouring drinks and collecting money

Once the customers calm down he turns and leans against the back of the bar

"She needs a job. Her names Olivia." She says calmly

He looks me from head to toe for a few seconds and I tense up feeling awkward

"Not interested" he says spinning back around tending to the customers

My shoulders slump forward and I feel instant disappointment

I look at Ari with a blank stare

"Listen, I need to go help them back there, here's some cash. Get a few drinks it's Friday night" she says rushing then shoves money in my hand

I go around and sit at the other side of the bar as far away from Blanes as I can and hope one of the female bartenders come to me

I sit and a few seconds later I hear his stern voice in front of me

"ID" he says

I look and he's leaning against the bartop with his palms on top

"Huh" I mumble

It takes me a few seconds to register what he said and he looks impatient the longer I sit there

"Oh" I grab my wallet and pull my license out and slide it to him

He looks at it, back to me and hands it back

"What do you want" he asks sounding ruder and ruder every sentence

"A job.." I whisper under my breath

"What was that?" He says leaning forward farther

I jump at him being suddenly closer

"Shot of tequila?" I say and he backs up and effortlessly pours my drink

I hand him my money but he shakes his head and walks away to the other customers

What the hell?

Free drinks? I thought he wasn't nice.

I put my money in my bra and take my shot

I shake my head at the taste and set the glass on the bar top

The light beams on my face as I scroll endlessly through my phone

All a sudden I'm in a huge shadow

I look up from my phone and my eyes meet his again

"You want a job? We need help. This is your one chance, fuck it up and you lose it. You wanna try?"

He tosses an apron at my chest

I quickly catch it dropping my phone on the counter

I sit silent for a few seconds but I jump up and put it on

He makes a face as if he's shocked I'm even gonna try

I tie the apron behind my back and walk behind the bar

"Stick to shots or beer, I'll teach you mixed drinks another night, fuck up and your out" he says and walks off

I grab a paper pad and pen then start taking orders and getting my tips

I feel his eyes following me constantly through the night.

He thinks I don't see his little plan for me to embarrass myself and get 'fired'

I'm not gonna let him get the satisfaction of me failing

As I'm taking a few orders I feel a large body brush up behind me as he sneaks behind me to get passed

I tense up and feel suddenly tingly
