Behind the Bar: A Slowburn Romance

Sophia is insistent on her first date code. No first date should last longer than ninety minutes, and even that can be pushing it. So she has another code at the local bar; if she goes up and orders a Midori Sour, she's really looking for the bill and she's found a bartender who will play along, but sometimes she wishes he'd do more. Sometimes, she wishes he'd step up and take the spot of the person sitting next to her rather than stay brooding behind the bar.

Well perhaps, if he won't come back to her, she'll have to find her way behind the bar to him...
