I am hanging around at the club trying to get my mind off of everything. Sometimes memories sneak up on you and the next thing you know you can not breath. My club brother Blade and couple others decided to go to the bar. I could use the distraction so I tag along. A few drinks could help me forget about life right now. As we walk in I notice the cute little redhead behind the bar. Rumour has it she came to town couple weeks ago and she is a fiesty as hell. They say she is not interested in socializing with anyone.
I am sitting there drinking my beer watching the t.v. not really listening to the boys. Hell Blade seems to be lost in thought most of the time now ever since he met that girl Veronica from the gas station that was attacked. I hear one of the boys say something about the redhead behind the bar. I can't help but look her way. As I turn back I also see Blade eyeing her. If I was interested she maybe a good fuck but I am not looking for anything more.
I hear someone yell so I look back up. I see some poor bastard has pissed off the redhead and she has him by the balls. I laugh, I guess the stories about her holding her own is true. I catch Blade looking at me so I stop looking at the redhead. I thought he was hooked on Veronica but I am starting to think he may fancy this redhead. A few minutes later we hear glass break. I see the guy has grabbed her arms, before I knew what was happening I was out of my seat. I had the guy by his throat while the redhead was yelling at me. Redhead says "I can hand the stupid asshole myself!" Blade grabs my shoulder and tells me we don't need to bring any trouble to the club. So I release the guy to the bouncer. I turn to ask the redhead if she was hurt but she glares at me before saying "NO! But I could have handled the bastard myself so mind your own damn business!"
What the fuck is wrong with this lady? I step closer to her, look down at her to tell her I was just trying to help a lady out. She is staring daggers at me. Damn she is small. I am 6'4" she maybe 5'2" at the most. I realize this is going no where, so I go back to our table. I tell the guys "Lets get out of the place, I have had enough of crazy ass redheads. The guys laughed at me as we made our way out. I turned back as we were walking out only to see she was still glaring at me.
Ruby
Man what a night, bunch of handsy drunkards and hotheaded bikers. The dude had to be 6'4" giant, big guy with tats. He acted like he was a God or something. I mean he acted like I should be thankful about him interfering with my work. Hell if can't handle a few drunkards I shouldn't be a bartender. Hell maybe I should have finished nursing school, but after Rose's death I couldn't be at a hospital again. For some stupid reason I chose to be a bartender.
Finally closing time, I am dead on my feet. I clean and restock the bar area before heading out. All I want to do is take a hot bath and go to sleep. As I walk to my car I felt my phone vibrate. Who is calling me at 2 am? I pull my phone out and I see it's my dad. My heart speeds up. I haven't spoken to them since I left after Rose. I decide to go ahead and answer it. Instead of my dad though it was my mother. I hear her say "Ruby dear it's mom please don't hang up!" I ask what she needs? She tells me that my dad is sick and I need to come home. I feel my anger boil over. I answer with the only answer I have "No, I don't have to come home anymore there is nothing there for me." My family died 2 years ago. My mother cries and starts begging me to listen to her . I reply "You have five minutes starting now." My mother informed me my dad has been sick for awhile. He has been hospitalized now and they are doing test but he is pretty sick. I inhale and exhale before answering "I will think about coming back to visit him but I will not be around Sally, understood?" She whispers "Yes."
After that phone call I don't feel like going to sleep now. I head down to the 24 hr diner. As I get inside and take a seat at the counter I hear laughter to the back. I turn to see several bikers sitting there drinking coffee. I look into the eyes of my so called savior tonight. I give him a glare and turn back around. I place my order for coffee with pancakes. I text an old friend from back home to ask her to check on what's really happening. She hasn't heard anything yet but she told me she would check into it. I finish my meal then head out to my car. I get in to crank it but it does nothing. Can my night get any worse? I get out to look under the hood, like I know what I am doing. I hear a deep voice "You need help Red?" He scared the shit out of me, I jumped up hitting my head on the damn hood. I was pissed and said "Can you not warn someone before sneaking up on them?" He laughs and that made me want to kick him in his balls.

As the guys and I eat at the diner before heading to the club. I see the little fiesty redhead come in to eat. She glares at me again. I say "What the fuck is wrong with that woman?" The guys look over to see the little spitfire glaring at me and they all laugh. One of the guys ask "When you gonna bed that one there Prez?" I give him a look that he knows to well and answer " Fuck you asshole." I watch her walk out and I just shake my head. That woman seems pissed at the world. We pay our bill then head out to our bikes. I look to my right to see the redhead is having car trouble. She may have been a bitch to me but I can't let her be stranded here at night. I walk to over to ask if she needs help but apparently I startled her because she jumped and hit her head on the hood. She said something about sneaking up on her and gave me a go to hell look. I couldn't help but laugh and that seemed to make it worse. I step closer and offer to take a look at her car. If Blade had came with us he could figure it out quick but he decided to go on back.
I finally gave up. I told Red that I am not sure what's wrong but I can have Blade to take a look tomorrow once one of my guys tow it to the club. I doubt it can be fixed its junk. I clear my throat and say "Look Blade is a mechanic the best one in town, he is your best bet. I can give you a lift home and come back over tomorrow with news about the car or the car if he has fixed it." She stood there saying nothing. It's not like we have cabs or shit like that so her choses are limited. I see she is chewing that bottom lip debating on what to do. What made this little lady so pissed at the world?
Ruby
Well hell looks like my car has finally died. He tells me the guys can tow it and Blade can look at it but it's not like I can afford to pay for repairs. Shit, shit, shit I know I have to accept his offer for a ride home. So I jump on his bike without saying a damn word. He looks at me and said "Okay then, address?" So I gave him my address but he had a shocked look on his face. I know I live on the bad side of town but I got what I could afford. I did not want to hold onto him but I learned real quick I had too. So I wrapped my arms around his waist. As we pull into the trailer park I see my neighbors are still partying, great so much for sleep tonight. I go to get off his bike but lose my footing and fall on my ass. Great one more fucking thing to go wrong tonight. I get up dust off my pants, I look up to him said "Thanks , you can leave now." To my surprise he said "Not until you are safely inside." So I went up the stairs unlocked my door as I step inside he said "Make sure you lock the door." This guy I tell you, so I sarcastically say "Yes daddy." The motherfucker smirked at me and said "Good girl." Been a while since anyone seem to care about me and I am not sure how I feel about it.
Spider
As I watch her go inside and tell her to lock the door I feel a little funny. I don't want care about another woman ever again. I am just being nice to a girl who is having a hard time. I can't feel for another woman like I did my Lily. I shake my head and take off back to the club. I get to my room and take a quick shower and lay down. It takes me a while to go to sleep. I swear my eyes just closed when I hear the guys laughing. I turn over and realize it's after 9am. I need to get up and start my day. I need to find Blade and tell him about her car. So I get up and dress to head downstairs. I see Blade sitting at the table so I grab me some coffee first then go to talk to him. We make plans to have it towed over so he can have a look. Soon as the car got there Blade went to work. He had it running within 30 minutes but told me it needs alternator. I give him the money for the part. Blade plans to try and have it running today. So I head over to talk to Red about her car.
