One to blame

2☘️

                 Fynland's POV

I rolled my eyes as some dude at the bar tried flirting with me

"I'm not interested" I said as I continued to make his drink.

Today was one of those days where I didn't wanna be here and this man wasn't making my day any easier

"I need two vodka on the rocks for table 3" Cleo said as she walked up to the bar and handed me a ticket

"Please don't tell me this is a tab" I groaned as she nodded.

People who started tabs usually didn't leave until the club closed AND took it upon themselves to order a million drinks

I quickly made the drinks not caring how they turned out.. like I said I'm not in the mood

"Hey sexy, how much for a dance?" The man who was just bothering me a second ago asked Cleo

She just rolled her eyes, took the two drinks, and left

"The service around here sucks" the dude scoffed as he slammed his drink on the counter

"She's a bottle girl not a dancer you ignorant fuck" I spat as I cleaned some glasses

The dude slapped his money on the counter and left

I fucking hate this job but I needed it.

Yes my parents still paid my bills but it wasn't like I asked them to and I sure as hell didn't Plan on ever asking them for shit

I watched as my coworker Jessica came into view before I checked my phone for the time

"Perfect timing, I'm on break" I said before throwing her the drying towel and walking out from behind the bar

If only I could drink on the clock

I headed to the break room in the back of the club and returned my cousin's call

"You called?" I asked as he answer the phone

"I did, our flight was moved to tomorrow so we've got another day to kill" he said confidently

"Well I'm at work right now"

"What about your friend?"

I lightly chuckled

"Cleo? She gets off in like an hour, I'll ask her if she wants to chill with you guys" I nodded as if he could see me

"Tell her we'll come pick her up" he said with excitement

"Who's we?"

"me and Jayson" he said in a duh tone

"Cool I'll text you back in 30"

"Bet" he said before hanging up

Knowing Cleo she'd be down to hang especially since they offered to pick her up.

Usually she waits until I get off of work then we carpool  home together but I don't get off until 8:30 and I doubt she wants to wait here for another 4 hours.

By the time my break is over she should be getting ready to finish her rounds

"Hey" she said as she walked into the break room

"Hey, I thought you took your break already.."

"I saved it so I could take it before it was time for me to go, the guys out there are really aggressive today" she said as she shook her head

I couldn't help but agree

"Speaking of men Jaylen wants to know if you wanna chill with him and Jayson after work"

"And do what?" She asked as she fixed her uniform

I just shrugged cause I didn't ask all of that

"What about you?" She asked as she raised an eyebrow

"I don't get off until 8:30 but if you guys are up for it we could hit the club down the street" I said as I ate my leftovers from last night

I watched as Cleo thought about it before agreeing

"I deserve a good night out since my last one was ruined" she said as she rolled her eyes and opened her salad bowl

I almost threw up just thinking about it

About 7 and a half months ago were went to the club as a little celebration on my promotion when we ran into Cleo's fiancé.. well EX fiancé now...but anyway we ran into Dominick and he was all hugged up on some girl

I was too shocked to do anything so Cleo walked over to him and asked him who the chick was...can you believe he pretended not to know her or what she was talking about!?

As you can imagine that pissed Cleo off so back and she basically attacked the girl with no hesitation; Dom didn't help either one of them not did he try to break it up

Within 2 minutes into the fight security came and intervened. 
The chick was so confused and started explaining what happened

Can you believe this bitch was also his fiancé but thought his name was Nicholas?!

Apparently he was some scammer dude who wasn't even from America, his name was actually Jatavious, AND he was already married with 4 kids!

I know! Shocking!

Now I thought the same thing at first like how could Cleo not have known.. well he had a legal ID, birth certificate, and papers. He even had a passport!

His story was that he was born and raised in Nevada, his parents died when he was young so he was adopted, and he didn't speak to his adoptive family because they never told him that he was adopted; he claimed that he found the adoption papers on his own

Lies. The whole thing was lies

Cleo had known him for 3 years before they started dating and they were together for another year before he proposed so it wasn't like they moved super fast either

She was definitely left traumatized after that.

She hasn't been in another relationship and We haven't stepped foot in that club since all of that went down

I don't blame her either and honestly she handled it way better than I would've

My alarm snapped me out of my thoughts; my break was over

I looked over at Cleo who was watching Netflix on her phone

I tapped her shoulder so she could take her AirPods out

"Let me know when you clock out"

She nodded before putting her headphones back in

I quickly texted Jaylen and let him know that Cleo was down to hang out but I let him know that she didn't need a ride

I planned on letting her take my car and come pick me up after work

I figured she'd wanna chill at my house anyway since it was bigger

I groaned as I looked at the clock on the wall

I wanted my shift to be over NOW
