The Club

Bachelor Party

Richard wasn't having the best time in the world, Wally was getting married and unfortunately he wasn't allowed to skip the bachelor party. He, Superboy, Aqualad, and some of Wally's other friends had been having a night on the town and Richard was tired. When someone suggested they go to a strip club Aqualad and Superboy decided to go home but Wally asked Richard to stay.

He couldn't say no so he ended up going to a strip club with them while using a fake ID to get inside. Once they were inside the loud music and lights overwhelmed his senses and he wanted to just walk out of the club. But he couldn't do that so he looked around as he tried to figure out how to escape, that's when he spotted the bar.

He walked over and sat down, he immediately noticed that the music wasn't as loud here, and the lights weren't as bad either. Richard quietly sighed in relief before he heard a voice, "Not interested in the show?"

Richard looked up to see a boy that looked like he was about nineteen, which would make them the same age. He had black hair and blue eyes, he wore a black button up shirt, black pants black boots, and a blue suit vest. Richard soon realized that he was actually staring at the boy and he looked away, "Not really."

The boy shrugged, "Do you want a drink?"

Richard thought for a second, "Can I just get some water?"

The boy, who he assumed was the bartender, nodded and grabbed a bottle of water before giving it to him. Richard took it, he was quiet for a minute before he spoke again, "You seem a little young to be working in a place like this."

The boy was cleaning a cup and didn't look at him, "Aren't you a little young to be here too?"

Richard froze and the bartender laughed, "It's not my job to throw people out, just give them drinks."

Richard looked shocked, "So you aren't going to tell anyone?"

The boy shrugged, "Not unless you give me a reason to."

Richard couldn't help but smile before he realized something, "Sorry, I don't know your name?"

The boy held out his hand, "Danny, and you?"

Richard shook his hand, "Richard nice to meet you Danny."

Danny smiled a little and continued cleaning the cup, "So why are you over here exactly?"

Richard looked confused, "What do you mean?"

Danny gestured to the other chairs at the bar, "Do you see anyone else sitting over here?"

Richard looked around before he looked confused again, "Why am I the only one here?"

"People are usually more focused on the half naked women dancing in a pole."

Richard shrugged, "I just wanted to get away from the music, it's a little loud."

Danny nodded, "I don't like it either, that's why I like working at the bar, I might have to deal with drunk people but it's relatively quiet."

Richard nodded, "So why are you working at a bar?"

Danny shrugged, "I needed a second job and this was the only place I could find that was hiring."

Richard looked confused, "So they hired a nineteen year old?"

Danny smirked, "I may or may not have had to lie about my age, just don't tell anyone."

Richard smiled, "As long as you don't give me a reason to."

Danny looked a little surprised before he laughed, "You're a weird guy."
