"I don't want to be like you dad I've tried so many times to tell you that but you don't listen." I say "you don't even have a plan. you can't just run off to star city" dad says, standing at my bedroom door "I'll figure it out but I can't stay here look what happened when you tried to force the military life on Lucy she won't even speak to us anymore" I say grabbing my suitcase and walking past my dad
Throwing my stuff in my car, I climb in, starting the car. "I'm sorry dad" I say before driving off heading to the apartment I rented in star city.
1 Month later
I found a job at a local club a few days after I got here. The manager emailed me letting me know I got the job after throwing on my shirt, it was pretty tight but I expected no less from the club. its black with the club logo. and then a black mini skirt.
Once I was done I grab my keys heading to the club, getting there at 9pm. I usually work the 9pm to 4am shift. The city stays pretty busy. Usually the rich guys come in here so it's pretty good tips.
Walking behind the bar, I start mixing drinks. About an hour later, a man not much older than me walks in sitting in front of me. "Hey pretty lady, give me the best drink you got" He says as another guy takes a seat next to him.
Nodding I whip up my specialty drink, sliding it to him with a wink before making my way down the bar checking on some of the regulars. Before making my way back down, he slides his glass to me. "You pretty lady will be my new bartender" he says "My names Aurelia" I say making him another drink
"Well Lia im Oliver" he says, a smirk on his face as I slide him the drink "You got a pen?" He asks I hand him my pen, and he writes something on a napkin before handing it to me "Call me ill be around" he says, downing his drink before him and his friend leave.
Slipping the napkin in my pocket, I finish my shift, heading back to my apartment. After a hot shower I climb into bed, falling asleep.

Feeling the bed sink in I turn overseeing Eli "I thought maybe we could go out" he says, looking down at me "where were you thinking?" I asked "The club downtown" he says I nod "I'll get ready" I say, standing up looking at the time. The clock reads 6:30
Taking a shower, I dry my hair before grabbing a black dress and some heels. I put on some mascara before heading to the living room. Eli looks up a smile on his face "Are you ready?" He asks, I nod we head out to his car heading to the club.
After walking in, we head straight to the bar to get drinks. Someone laughs behind us, causing me to turn around where I see Layla and somebody I don't know sitting a few seats down from us
I turn back towards Eli and see his eyes on her and the man with a look I can't decipher "Are you okay?" I ask he shakes his head before looking at me. "Yeah I'm fine" he says, taking a sip of his drink. I nod, grabbing mine.
His eyes wander back over to Layla after a few minutes, I down my drink before ordering another. He still hasn't said a word to me, just continued to look at her. 30 minutes later, I'm on my 8th drink standing up I grab my purse walking to the bathroom the alcohol finally hitting me
Grabbing my phone, I dial a cab heading outside. The cab pulls up, and I mumble an address to him, we get there and I step out, stumbling into the warehouse. I climb the stairs. Seeing Oliver laying on the couch with a book in his hand. He still hasn't noticed me
I walk into the room, and he finally looks up from his book, "Li, what are you doing here?" He asks "honestly I don't know" I say, stumbling a bit. "Are you drunk?" he asks "Maybe" I say, making my way over to the couch. I flop down beside him.
"Li what's going on?" He asks "I don't know, could be my boyfriend asked to go out tonight and then spent almost an hour looking at another girl" I say huffing "Then he's an idiot, he's already got the best girl" he says, turning towards me.
"Fucked up part she's my best friend" I mumble, leaning my head back against the couch. "Come here" he says, lifting his arm. I lean my head against his chest. He says something, but at that point I'm already falling asleep.
