Her Three Favourite Jacks

Ch 3: rudeness

I turn to look for my brother, he had disappeared, "good stuff" I mutter and turn back to find Sean looking at me, still holding the glasses. " what?" I narrow my eyes at him. I know I'm being rude, but I'm only protecting myself.
" you are stunning" he sits down, handing me the drink,
" sure" I nod slowly, not really believing him. I lift the glass to my lips, "people think I'm scary" i say before taking a swig of the whiskey
" why?" He asks, leaning closer to me.
" I don't know, the coloured hair, piercings, tattoos and dark makeup" I put the glass down, Sean got a bit closer
"I think your not scared to express yourself. I think you're brave" he smiles
I breath a small laugh "cheers" I lift my glass back up, he lifts his and clinks our glasses together, I then chug the alcohol back and finish it in no time.
" I've never seen a girl hold her alcohol like you can. Especially whiskey" he adds. He's closed this time, our shoulders almost touching
" jack comforts me when I'm alone" I smile at the now empty glass,
" a woman like you should never be alone"
'Smooth'
"Do yah not have a lover?" He asks, as if he was expecting me to actually have someone, I shake my head. " a friend?" Puts his glass down and looks at me,
" well I have a dog" I shrug a little "he counts"
Jack smiles, "what's his name" he curves his head round to try and look into my eyes.
"Jack" I almost scoff, I heard Sean smile.
" I'm guessing you like jacks" he sounded cheeky
" so what?!" I snap at him " he's the only one who won't leave me!!" I stand up,
" Amyst" dan stood by my side
" maybe I do like the name Jack, maybe I don't like humans. Maybe I'm an alcoholic" the back of my throat stated to hurt and my eyes burn,
" Amyst, I'm right here" dan carefully puts his hand on my shoulder
" I don't need anyone!!!" I push him away and run out of the building.
