       A Gentleman and a Lady.

       The city hummed with life, as the sun went down and the lights
       kicked on. All around  people wound down from long work days, or
       just started working. The occassional alcohol fueled fist fight
       would break out here or there, quickly to be put out by police.
       Along with the night, came the sights, not just a sparkling
       city, but the girls dressed like movie stars, and causing
       temptation for the men, surely more than one heart would be
       broken tonight. Yet with the rise in fun and relaxation, also
       rose the crime, attacks on minorities, by other ethnic groups,
       some women unfortunate enough to be caught alone, having
       something precious stolen from them by the perverted denizens of
       the night.

       The noise the lights, the girls, Aric loved the city,
       particularly the area with the bars, but not the cheap dingy
       holes like back home. No, he enjoyed the higher end ones, where
       the girls were beautiful, and the alcohol top shelf.  He had
       turned twenty-one on his last deployment and had just gotten
       back, a few of his friends had decided to take him out on the
       town, but they had quickly found more interesting things to do.
       Smirking he shook his head as he was given another beer, guy
       will stand next to you in a firefight and not even move, the
       second a nice ass walks through the door, they are gone. With a
       laugh he lifted the beer and took a drink, leave it to a bunch
       of city boys to forget that he was a country boy and had no idea
       where to go. "Well, might as well enjoy the night." He drawled
       as he turned around and leaned against the bar, watching the
       crowd on the dance floor.

       As the sun began to disappear behind the night sky, street lamps
       began to light the way for those who were just beginning to
       enjoy themselves, hundreds of men, women and drunks swarmed the
       city streets as if there was no tomorrow and somehow managing to
       spend hard earned money in a matter of hours until the clubs
       closed their doors until the following evening. Men wore their
       best shirt, accompanied with a pair of denim trousers and
       baseball shoes, their most expensive cologne clinging to others
       who had simply walked past as they headed to their destination,
       whilst the women seemed to have their very own competition for
       who could bear the most flesh and still get past the bouncers,
       the eyes of men on either their chest or backside allowing the
       hoes to make their move, a free drink in return for a one night
       stand. No matter how many indivuals wandered the streets, there
       was always the 'unlucky' ones, staff members of the clubs that
       had to survive 8 hours of vomitting, cheesy pick up lines and
       horrid dancing...one of these was Alex.
       "Here you go guys, one sex on the beach and one vodka and
       coke...enjoy your night!" She shouted over the blaring speakers,
       a sweet smile plastered on her face as she watched two more of
       her customers disappear into the crowd before moving onto the
       next. This continuous cycle had gone on for 7 hours now, the
       good thing about tonight being that Alex wasn't working until
       the club closed, and once she had 30 order free seconds to
       herself, she would quickly take a mouthful of her water before
       grabbing any empty glasses from around the club, meaning she had
       to weave herself in and out of the drunks. "Hey Alex!" some of
       them would shout, waving their arms frantically whilst she would
       give a slight nod in return, managing to get back behind the bar
       without a problem and putting the glasses into the dishwasher.
       Letting out a soft sigh, she brushed her platinum blonde hair
       back behind her ears, her hands moving down to her waist as she
       adjusted the black t-shirt that hugged her figure, the clubs
       name written in large white letters across the back. Turning
       around, she noticed a young man at the bar, immediately figuring
       that he was on his own tonight so she smiled again, pulling a
       bottle opener from her pocket as she grabbed another bottle of
       beer, cracking the lid before placing it in front of him, giving
       him a friendly wink if he noticed before moving over to the cash
       register.

       The noise, and the people were starting to become to much for
       Aric to deal with. With a grumble he turned around to pay his
       tab and leave, when suddenly the bartender placed another beer
       in front of him. Staring at the hand holding it, it took him a
       second to realize it was a girls hand, looking up just in time
       to see her wink, Aric lifted the bottle, and tipped it towards
       her, giving a nod of his head as he did. "Thank ya kindly." He
       almost shouted to be heard above the noise. She was rather
       pretty, e mused to himself, watching her go back to the other
       patrons, he sat there, rolling the full bottle of beer on its
       bottom edge. Finally he looked down at the bottle, turning it in
       his hand so he could see the lable, it was a Stella Artois,
       raising an eyebrow, he looked uto find the bartended as she
       walked by in front of him, looking at the bottle again he
       smiled, he actually liked these, but how did she know what to
       grab him?  Hee didn't have ay other bottle in front of him to
       tell by. Shrugging he took a drink, she was one helluva
       bartender, and he decided he would give her an extra good tip.
       Turning to lean his back against the bar again, he adjusted the
       jacket of his dress unifor, so it looked nice again. Staring out
       at the dance floor, he made a face then tured and leaned against
       the bar  again, this time watching the female bartender that had
       served him. Occasionaly she would look past him, and in those
       moments he would stare at the bottle in his hands. He wasn't
       sure what she would think, if she saw him just sitting there
       watching her, and he didn't want to keep her out. So instead, he
       ended up feeling like he was back in school, stare at the
       gorgeous girl in class, then when she started to look in his
       direction, he would stare at something else. After several
       minutes of this, he had finished his beer, and held up the
       bottle hoping to catch her attention, and that it woud be her to
       serve him, he wanted to ask her, her name.

       (Sorry for the late reply >.<)
       As the young man acknowledged the drink placed infront of him,
       Alex smiled softly and nodded in recognition when he thanked
       her. "No problem! On the house!" she shouted, hoping that he
       would hear her voice before she returned to work. Running her
       hand across her waist, she grasped the towel hanging out of the
       denim pocket, pressing it to the bar before moving it in
       circular motions as she collected empty glasses in front of her
       with the other hand, looking up as more and more customers began
       to approach the bar and she simply smiled, letting them know
       that she would serve them in just a number of seconds. Alex
       returned the towel to her pocket before leaning across the bar,
       having to move onto the tips of her feet in order to reach the
       customer so that she could hear their order, smirking as they
       asked for the club's speciality cocktails and mixers, meaning
       that she would need to 'show off' a little with the skills she
       had learnt at the beginning of the job. Kneeling down, she
       collected the required amount of glasses, as well as two
       cocktail mixers before setting them on the bar, turning to the
       drinks selection, her fingers lightly running along the bottles
       until she found what she was looking for, "Here we go" she
       whispered, the soft smile still on her face as she turned
       around, motioning for the other bartender to join her.
       Picking up the first two bottles, Alex glanced to her fellow
       worker who nodded, also picking up the other two bottles that
       she had set out before the two faced one another, throwing the
       bottles through the air to eachother, almost like jugglers in a
       circus show, the customers recieving the drinks had already
       began to cheer and clap for the two putting on the show for
       them. Following this, Alex then turned to face the customers,
       juggling the bottles continuously, switching them between her
       hands every few seconds, she then poured the required
       measurements of alcohol into the mixer, setting them down and
       grabbing two more before throwing the two up and spinning on her
       heels to complete a full 360 turn, catching the bottles in
       perfect time and pouring them again. During this time, the other
       bartender had just about finished the other drink and Alex
       scooped some ice into the mixer, picking it up and shaking it
       for around 10 seconds, sharing it between the tall glasses on
       the bar and completing the order with an umbrella and a small
       wedge of lime before moving the glasses towards the customers
       who handed over the cash, aswell as a fairly healthy tip for the
       two.
       Stepping across to the cash register, she put the money in and
       looked over towards the other bartender when the two started
       laughing, the two high-fiving as they walked past eachother and
       Alex stopped in front of the young man that she'd given the free
       beer to. "Another beer?" she asked, hearing someone shout "No!"
       in her direction, the owner coming into view and placing his
       hand upon her shoulder. "Your shift is over my dear, time to get
       some rest. See you on Monday" he explained, motioning her
       towards the 'staff only' area, just giving her time to wave at
       the young man, "Enjoy your night!" she shouted, disappearing
       behind the closed door, emerging around 5 minutes later wearing
       a smooth black leather jacket, a red backpack draped over her
       shoulder as she moved through the crowd to reach the exit. Now
       all she had to do was get home, and that meant avoiding the
       gangs and drunks, causing her to sigh as she slowly set off for
       her destination.

       Aric drank quietly and when the bartender said the beer was on
       the house, he smiled and held the bottle up. "Thank you, miss!"
       He shouted to her. He watched her show off as she mixed a
       cocktail for someone, smiling he clapped as she finished. It was
       truly fun to watch, watch finally looked back at his beer when
       she was done. He was contemplating leaving, feeling
       uncomfortable in the crowded bar.
       Hearing her voice he looked back up, and frowned as her boss
       walked up telling her, her shift was done. She was going to
       leave, and he hasn't even spoken to her. It was typical, he
       figured, always waiting until it was to late, it was his luck.
       Why could he never speak to a girl when he wanted to? He could
       fight in a combat zone, without fear, but when it came to girls
       he was tongue tied.
       Finally he motioned to another bartender, a gave him  a large
       tip, "Make sure that blonde bartender gets this, will you?" The
       man nodeed and Aric finally turned away and walked towards the
       entrance. When he reached the door, he pushed it open, and held
       it as someone in a red backpack left before him. It took him a
       second to realize she was the bartender. He hesitated, then
       finally walked up next to her as she walked, "Uh... Hello..." He
       said
