The next night Olivia is at work and Rhea, being the curious one she is, decides she wants to take Olivia up on her offer to stop by and get a drink at the Wild Rover Pub. Wearing her casual, yet fancy attire, she struts into the pub and looks around, hoping to get a glimpse of Olivia.

"Welcome in" a voice says from behind the counter, Rhea looks over and smiles when she recognizes Olivia's voice. She walks over to the bar and sits down on one of the barstools, resting her arms on the counter. "Thanks, I'm here for that free drink you promised me," Rhea smirks, jokingly.

"What can I get started for ya" Olivia asks and leans on the counter of the bar showing a bit of her cleavage. Rhea's gaze dropped down to Olivia's chest as she leaned forward, her eyes taking in the sight of her cleavage for a moment before darting back up to her face. "Hm." Rhea tried to look nonchalant as she looked up at the drink menu above her head, but she wasn't doing a very good job. "I think I'll just have a whiskey on the rocks, please"

"Whiskey on the rocks, you got it" Olivia says and begins to make the drink. Rhea watches as Olivia makes the drink, her eyes drifting down to her cleavage every so often. She couldn't help it, Olivia was making her very, very distracted.

"Do you work here by yourself every night?" Rhea asks, trying to keep her mind focused on the conversation and not on Olivia's body. Although, it didn't seem to be working very well. Oliva places her drink down and leans on the counter again, "Yes I do."

Rhea accepts the drink and takes a swig, letting the whiskey burn her throat for a moment. "You don't get lonely working all night by yourself?" she asks. Rhea definitely wasn't used to the night hours, but she didn't mind staying up until dawn. Especially for a pretty bartender at a local pub.

"Sometimes, especially when it's busy but the tips can be good working by yourself" "I bet" Rhea takes another drink, her eyes roaming down to Olivia's body again. She couldn't help herself. This woman was driving her crazy. "How much are your tips looking like tonight?" "So far pretty good" she says looking around her semi busy pub.

Rhea nods, taking in the sight of the half-filled pub. "Looks like you've got a good crowd tonight." She takes another swig of her drink, her gaze falling on Olivia again. She couldn't help but wonder how often she got hit on at work. "Do you want anything else dear?" Olivia asks

Rhea shakes her head. She definitely wanted more, but it wasn't more alcohol. "I'm good now, thanks." She paused for a moment, debating if she should ask this question in her mind.

"So... this may be a weird question, but how often do you get hit on while working here?" Olivia laughs "Pretty often, mostly they think they will get a free drink."

Rhea laughs as well, shaking her head. It didn't surprise her in the slightest that guys tried to use it to get free drinks. "Yeah, yeah, sounds about right. I don't blame them for trying, you are pretty gorgeous." "Aw, thank you." She smiles

"I'm just saying it like it is." Rhea takes another sip of her drink, watching Olivia as she smiles. "I can definitely see why so many men flirt with you. I'm sure you have to turn them down all the time."

"Do you see that bouncer over there?" She says pointing behind Rhea, Rhea follows to where Olivia was pointing and sees the bouncer standing by the back wall, arms crossed. "Mhm, I see him. What about him?" "He has to kick people out when they take it too far."

Rhea's eyes widened slightly at that "Damn... really? I mean I figured it happens sometimes, but I didn't think it would happen that much. You must get some pretty nasty, persistent guys in here sometimes." "Thankfully they only come on the weekend, and I carry a gun." Olivia shrugs, causing Rhea's eyes to widen again, genuinely surprised. Olivia was not only beautiful, but she was also armed with a gun. That made her even more attractive.
