Another day behind the bar

[Alexia]

Alexia stared out as more people flooded in the nightclub. She put on her usual look the ‘Ask what you want and beat it’ look. There was hardly nothing to do here except listen to the loud ear shattering music and listen to other people gossip. That’s the only reason why she liked it here was the gossip everything you needed to know was right there asking you a drink. A girl walked up you could tell she had way too much make-up on and she was drunk. “Vodka please…” Alexia rolled her eyes “Vodka right away…” she pulled out a shot glass and put an ice cube in it and poured the clear liquid in the glass. The girl hesitantly drank it and you could tell she did not like it. Alexia raised an eye brow “too strong for you….maybe you just need water…” The girl rolled her eyes and walked away. Alexia shrugged ‘you can always tell their personality of what they drink and how…the girl just now was a snob. She wanted to show off to her friends that she can handle strong drinks too…but in the end she was walking towards the bathroom to spill her guts…A guy who ask an imported beer has good taste and money which shows he’s just out here to fling it around for a hooker… I guy who ask for a regular beer is usually just here to cool off at a long days work in the progress hoping some hot girl would talk to them if they were not married or did not care if they were….A girl/guy who wants a fruity drink usually wants to get drunk and have fun….A guy who wants his drink on fire shows his dangerous and stupid thinking fire can attract girls around him….and then there are those who drink to get the troubles out of the way they want something that burns like Whiskey and Tequila…and lastly the vodka drinkers…the ones who can take it are tough and strong and usually hot or just really want to have fun….those who can’t are push overs and chumps…’ she sighed as the party really started and more people flocked in to get on the dance floor to show off their moves or to score with some hot chicks or hot guys. She sighed as the Techno cranked up “another day on the job..” she sighed and walked over to a man who tie was loose and his jacket was off by a button but his eyes were caved in and hold tiredness and depression “Whiskey please…” Alexia smiled “ok Lance…have another fight with your wife…” Lance nodded and chugged the whiskey down “yea…” Alexia smiled “It’ll be all right…” She passed him down a cool glass of milk. She winked at him “on the house…usually helps me when I’m depressed but to drunk to drink...” Lance smiled his choppy hair a mess “Thanks Alexia…” Alexia smiled “no prob.” [/font]

"Hey, babe, what's a guy got to do to get a drink around'ere?" A voice cried out over the music. His comment may have seemd rude, but he was grinning as madly as the mad hatter. His flaming red hair was loose around his shoulders and his acid green eyes were locked on the figure of Alexia. She was a demon, he could tell, just as he was. "I'm just dyin' for a drink, doll-face." He drawled in that same greasy manner. His voice was like an oil spill. Slick, rather sickening and something you really don't want to see (hear, in this case.)

The man was wearing a black suit, with a constrasting mauve tie. The tie clashed with his hair and his eyes, but he didn't really care. "Make that five shots of vodka please, and make it snappy, thank you." The demon's name you may ask? Why, Mr. Grenfel, local Lawyer, but known as Zenku to some of the club folk and close friends (Friends he didn't have.) He gave another grotesque smile, looking more like a shark than a human. "It's been a very, very long day." He said in tone that suggested his day had neither been long nor depressing in anyway.

Alexia rolled her eyes she hated being called doll or baby. She pulled out the vodka and five shot glasses. She poured the bottle and filled the glasses up. She gave her fake smile but her eyes told the story. She was very testy that day she already punched a guy in the nose for calling her sweetheart and tried to hit on her. Lucky her boss did not see. But today he was gawking around the bar behind her because he had heard complaints of her hitting his costumers. She sighed as he talked to her. Lance got up finished his drink. She waved good bye and he waved back laying down a good tip. She walked over to it and picked it up stuffing it down her jean pockets. She picked his glass up and began to wipe it with her towel. She looked over towards Zenku ignoring his comments ‘suite….five vodka…his clashing tie…has to be a lawyer…probably one that defends criminals…’ she thought. She lend up against the back counter with all the liquor on the glass shelves. ‘All most time for me too end my shift…thank god…’ she thought. Then her boss came up “Alexia…Tucker can’t come in today he has the flu…” Her boss was tall, brown hair with blue streaks, He hits on a lot of girls, and he has bad jokes too which makes Alexia want to punch him a lot but she stays cool. She set Lances glass down as He waited for her response “Damn…another full night...better be full pay boss…” He waved “yea…yea…I know” He walked off. She fumed as her hair curled around her blue eyes. She grabbed a beer for a guy who had way too much to drink and walked over to Zenku to see what else he wanted. ‘At least I might hear something about Soren tonight though…” she thought trying to stay positive.

Zenku smirked. "Sounds like you're going to have a very long night." He drawled. Especially with me around. He finished in his head with a chuckle and with that slammed back all five shots in a row. He didn't seem faced at all, as if he was drinking water instead of vodka. The taste nor the burn bothered him anymore. Alcohol was a passé for him. Weak, it hardly effected him at all. He laughed, pushing two twenties towards the girl. "Get me another five shots and you can keep the change for having to put up with such a lowly disgusting man as myself."

The demon laughed, his eyes flaring their sickly radiating green. His eyes seemed to pluse with that strange green glow. He felt around in his pockets and pulled out a mirror. Just a square piece and set it on the bar top. Like said, alcohol provided hardly any buzz, time to bring out the heavier stuff. With his other hand, he pulled out a bag of white powder and poured some of it on the mirror, he wasn't afaird of being caught, he was his own laywer and was sure to get out of any punishment the court might serve up.

He cut the fine white powder with a credit card (pulled from one of his other pockets) and rolled up another twenty, and placed it in his nose, sniffed the line, cut another and sniffed through the other nostril. "Umm, that's better." He laughed, cutting another line, holding the mirror out to the barkeep. "Want a line, like I said, you deserve the best treatment for putting up with me." His lips twitched into a smile. "It's pure."

Alexia placed five more shots and poured some vodka in them. She looked at him with her deep blue eyes she shook her head "na...I'm good...I don't like to waste my time on that crap...." She stared at him and suddenly realized what he was. She smirked 'something interesting...' she turned away and saw her boss walking by he was still watching her. She rolled her eyes and took the twenties putting them with the rest of her cash. A few chicks walked up asking for a drink she brought it to them and got paid. She took out a shot and poured some whiskey and drank it straight. She stared off at all the young people dancing on the floor. Her ears could hear everything they were saying she did have ears of a wolf so it was easy picking up gossip. She turned back to Zenku she had her usual expression on her face. "Anything else?" she asked coolly. [/font]

[Zenku]

"Nothing else, ma'am, that is as long as I can't get you." He said while licking his lips. "I'm just kiddin'ya. I'm not too interested in the female variety of our race..." He said softly, refering to the fact that they were both demons, rather than human. "And I'm not exactly wasting time, I've got all the time in the world, honey. All the time in the world!" He exclaimed with a feverish giggle and grand movements made with his hands. And he did. He had all the time in the world. Eternity, thanks to a pact with the devil, he would live forever.

"Ya sure, you dun want any?" He questioned, sniffing the line himself. He could overdose on drugs, not worrying about dying, that is, if his demon form would let him overdoes, it seemed no amount of drugs would affect him for very long. "And you really shouldn't talk to me so long..." He said seriously enough. "I'm one of those creepy psycho stalker killers you always hear about." He was completely serious, until his face broke out into a drug-induced smile. "But don't worry, I make sure death is sweet and slow."

[Alexia]

Alexia stared at him. She just turned away she hated this club. She looked out and saw Tucker climbing up the stairs to the boss's hangout. She gave a sigh of relief. Her boss soon walked up and stood behind the counter which meant he would take over until Tucker was there. Alexia winked at her boss and waved goodbye as she headed up stairs after Tucker. He saw her and smiled he was sick but you could tell he was better. He had dark black hair and deep brown eyes. He raised his hands up "It's a miricale..." Alexia rolled her eyes and pushed him down "Damn right...I was about to jump the counter to go and beat your ass...making me work three nights in a row....shame on you!" She was glad that her boss let his employees hang in his silent "DJ hangout" room. She sat on a love seat and flipped her cell phone on. She dialed a few numbers and sighed. Tucker walked up behind her and played with her hair. She slapped his hand telling him to stop but he still continued. Tucker was a good friend of hers so it was cool. "shut up..." It rang and nobody was home. She sighed and looked at him "hey you know someone can give me a ride?" Tucker thought. "how about...me..." She pushed him out of her face. "in your dreams...you'll just take me to the beach and try and get me to go out with you..." Tucker shrugged "worth a try...you want a ride home or not" Alexia thought "naw...I'm good..." he laughed as she pushed him back away again. "fine..I'll go with you...but...no hitting on me or I hit on your face..." Tucker backed up "wow...Miss. Ice Queen please don't..." Alexia laughed "Yea...I'll banish your ass...if you don't get up and movin..." She grabbed her jacket from her locker and closed it. He walked her out and they walked through the front waving good bye to the bouncer. He walked her to his mustang. Opened the door and got in the driver side and drove away from the club.
