A usual night for a little bit of fun at The Bar. What could be better? The three of us had bar seats, right in front of the display case of the expansive selection of beers, wines, even whiskey drinks.
Me: Welp, here we are, all at the bar.
Mike: Fun Times, huh?
Infinite: I'm only getting a few. I'm not getting drunk.
Mike: I actually WANT to pass out on my couch tonight.
The bartender walked up to us. A young woman, with her green tentacles pulled into a ponytail. Her teal eyes wandered around a bit.
Bartender: May I take your orders, boys?
Mike: I'll take Fireball.
Infinite: Eh. I'm feeling more strawberry margarita.
Bartender: And for you, sir?
Me: I'll... I guess a bottle of Corona will be fine.
Bartender: Coming right up.
She took our drink orders and slid them all to us. Bottle for me, glasses for them.
Bartender: Enjoy.
Me: Yeah. Thanks.
She smiled at me and tended to someone else.
Mike: First time for everything. Cheers.
I grabbed the bottle and took a quick swig from it. The flavor lasted a little while, but it eventually fizzled out.
Me: That's good.
Mike: Want a try?
He slid me his glass. I set my bottle back onto the bar and took his offering. A quick swig was all it took for me to cough a bit.
Me: Strong.
Mike: It's a cinnamon whiskey, not a regular whiskey.
Me: Not bad.
I drank the rest of it and handed the glass back to him.
Mike: Motherfucker.
Me: Heh. You offered. I took it.
I continued to drink my bottle until I set it down empty.
Me: That was good. Really good.
Infinite: Hey, Carly? Another Fireball and Corona over here.
The bartender walked over to us and slid us our drinks.
Mike: You know her, Infinite?
Infinite: Old friend. She's a beauty, ain't she?
Me: I can't disagree with you about that.
Carly smiled and I think she even blushed at the comments.
Infinite: Well, we did have an argument a while back.
Carly: Yep. All I told you was "suck my dick," and you shot back with "I would. Too bad you don't have one."
That got me and Mike to laugh.
Infinite: Hey. Credit where it's due. I made us laugh when I said that.
Carly: Yep. I'll give you that.
Me: Soo... have you seen anything... strange going on around here?
Carly: Well... this one regular I always get. A girl. 17. She comes in with a guy in a red cap and overalls. He orders the drinks, she drinks them and pays for them.
