For two weeks Molly crept out her back door, out her back gate and down the alley way to work. She started working in the back at the cafe and she refused to come from behind the bar the entire time she was at The Hound, she found a way to make herself unavailable every time Kole needed a drink or even attempted to talk to her. She became a nervous wreck and of course, he noticed."Molly, you want a sex on the beach?" Liv yelled. "I'm good." She replied. Liv rolled her eyes and turned back to Charlie, who had seated himself at the bar with his cider in one hand and wallet in the other as he was talking to liv. He looked at her like a dog looks at a bone and she looked at his wallet the exact same way. "Whatever." Muttered Liv. Something had gotten into her since she'd been seeing Charlie, she'd became some bitchy gold digger. Lost in thoughts about her best friend's drastic change in personality, she didn't notice Kole had approached the corner of the bar she was standing in. "Hey, hear me out." He spluttered, she could tell he was trying to get them words out quick before she could hurry off to 'wash the glasses' or 'put the uniforms on another wash' even though there was no washer behind the bar, it was just a lie she'd told him to get away. "Maybe I don't want to hear it, Kole." She protested. "Missy, I swear I'm sorry." He pleaded, this time he sounded sincere, no smirk and no cocky tune behind his words he seemed to just want to speak to her. "I don't trust you. How do you know that I call Kelly Kelvin?" She snapped. Startled, he remembered that he had let that slip. "Is that really why you're mad at me?" He emphasised his words. Molly nodded, only subtly, feeling kind of silly now that she'd just said it but that's who she was. Blunt. She'd always been that way. Why potter around things ay? "Oh, little miss I can explain that. Kelly is-" He started but Kelly quickly broke into their conversation, "I told him, he knows the name kelvin because he overheard it and I told him the story behind." She exclaimed. "But you've been busy... you haven't seen him..." Molly stuttered, clearly shocked by this sudden outburst from behind her as Kelly had been in the staff room. She looked back at Kole only to see him blankly staring at Kelly as if in disbelief. "Don't question me Molly, your here to pour drinks for my customers, you want to keep that job don't you?" Boomed Kelly. Molly couldn't believe it, Kelly had been like an auntie to her the past nine years and suddenly she was acting as if she was just her boss? threatening her with unemployment? That was really unlike her.
"Moving on..." grumbled Kole. "Nah-uh, no moving on, go away Kole." Molly fumed, angry that Kole wouldn't listen. "Please, missy." He persisted. "Go away Kole." She repeated. He banged his fist on the bar. "Fine." He bellowed. "Your a fucking drunken fool." She barked. "And your a real bitch." He moaned, sniffling as he pulled away. "Why are you so bothered about me?" She snarled. "Because your addictive, your not like the rest but you won't let me know you." He hissed. "Maybe you should accept that." She yapped. "Never." He stated. He leaned away, sliding his hand off the table and stumbled back over to his boys, clearly had one too many vodka and cokes. "Yeah, stay there." Molly grunted under her breath. "Be careful with him." Kelly warned and then floated away to her apartment for the rest of the night.
After that, the rest of the night went as usual, same amount of customers, club booming below, although Liv wasn't any help at all she went off to the boys all night, drinking and flirting whilst sat on Charlie's lap. An hour before closing Molly decided to get back into her clothes, the jeans that she was wearing were pushing on her belly and it was starting to get sore so she got back into her leggings and hoodie, it was the last hour after all. As she approached the door from the staff room to the bar she heard whispering a on the other side and stopped to listen. They were faint at first but then, after pressing her ear to the door, she could hear perfectly. "You want me, really, stop fantasising on Molly, she's grieveing, she won't want you." Flirted a familiar female voice. "I'm sure I can wait, her grief will ease." Laughed another familiar voice, male this time. And then she clicked, it was Olivia and Kole. Desperately, she pressed her ear harder against the door to listen. "But I'm a lot more fun." Olivia taunted. "Maybe I've had enough of fun." Kole chuckled. Molly couldn't bear listening she wanted to see, so she pulled one of the staff room chairs over and stood on it so she was y'all enough to peer through the tinted window at the top. They were in the doorway right below the window, Liv was playing with Kole's collar, he wore the same thing to the bar every day, same black blazer with just a change of shirts, this one was put white perfect enhancing the blonde in his hair. Molly had never noticed his perfect complexion before, but she seen it in that moment. Maybe she did want him... "Aren't you after Charlie?" Kole added very obviously confused. "We all know your way more powerful than little Charlie." She smiled. She leaned forward closer to his face ready for a kiss but she got no response, after realising this she leaned in further tilting her head slightly and aiming for his neck. She reached up to touch his scar and he snatched her hand. "Ouch!" She screeched as Kole crunched her hand. "You're a slut." He grumbled and then he left the doorway leaving Liv standing alone, hand in air and face like a slapped arse.
