Charlie's

Chapter 5

BPOV

We've been open about twenty minutes when five birds come marching in like they fucking own the place and stalk up to the bar. and I make a motion for Ben to handle it, as I make another drink for Alice and grab a vodka and coke for me...fuck it I'll still be sober so one drink won't hurt. I watch Ben as he takes their orders and step over to them.

"I.D ladies, please" I say as I stare at them.I receive some huff's and eye rolls.

"You can roll your eyes all you like sweetheart, but if you don't show me your I.D then you don't drink in my fucking bar. You got me?" I say with a raised eyebrow. Yeah...they all look a bit shocked at my attitude and dig out their I.D. I sure as fuck ain't getting shut down by cos we've served an under aged diva, not in this lifetime. I check all their I.D and nod at Ben to carry on.

"Make sure you check everyone Ben, you too Lauren...Have a nice night ladies" I say as I walk back over to Alice with a chuckle.

I sit on the stool at the end of the bar next to Alice and take a sip of my drink when she say's "You're gonna have to watch that you know?..The I.D thing I mean."

I sigh "I know, I'll get one of the sign things that says "NO I.D NO DRINK" and stick em round the bar and at the door" I say

"That should do it, no excuse then."

"I can't believe we finally open" I say, still not sure how we managed to do it in time.

"Turned out alright didn't it?" She said looking at me with a smile on her face.

"We did good Ali...You know I ain't good at this sappy shit, but I just wanna say thank you and that I love ya. You're the only family I have left and If it weren't for you...I don't think I would have made it." I say.

I look up at her to see tears in her eyes and give her a little smile and a hug and quickly go back to my cool cold-hearted exterior I'm told I have..I don't let this side of me out that often, but when I do its heartfelt.

Alice has seen the change a thousand times so she knows what to look for, she gives me a bright smile and says "I know you do B, and you're welcome. That's what sisters are for...Now get back to work, people are waiting to be served."

I look up and see the bar was like fifteen people in it...well shit when did they all get here. I walk over and some bird with too much make-up on and a dress that was any shorter you would see her ass.

"What can I get ya?"

"Archers and lemonade, Vodka and coke, Jack and coke erm...and 2 Fosters please" she said in a voice that could make my ears scream.

"You got I.D chick?" I ask.

She does so I fill her order and take her money...for someone that looked like a skank she let me keep the change and I put it in the tip jar beside the till. More people we trickling into the bar Lauren and Ben were handling it, so I went to make me and Alice another drink and sat my ass on the stool again.

"Don't get pissed Bella" she said, and I rolled my eyes at her...because I can

"Not likely dear, but I'll keep an eye on my alcohol intake just for you OK?" I say with a sarcastic smile.

"Good girl"

"I'm not a fucking dog you know" I say with a frown as I make my way to serve another person as Ben and Lauren are tied up.

About an hour later the place its pretty packed and I'm rushed off my feet, Alice popped behind the bar give me a hand a few times...but mostly to fill her own glass cheeky lil fucker that she is. I was getting sick of asking for I.D already, that shit was gonna get old quick. I've sent two people away already and got called a bitch...nice! I move to the next bloke he's fucking huge brown curly big blue eyes and you wouldn't believe it fucking dimples, I can't help but smile at him.
