Scarlett's POV
I entered Donni's bar and went straight to a stool next to the bartender he had a lot of people around him.
I was watching him work, shaking drinks; maybe I could get a job like him one day...
The bartender finished serving the others and faced me and asked me what I wanted.
"Give me a double on tequila shots. " I answered.
He nodded and after a minute he placed them in front of me. I drank them. " UGH."
" You don't drink much right?" The bartender said.
I looked at his name tag... Michael.
" What gave it away? " I asked. I laughed internally, he seriously thought I was a beginner?
He rolled his eyes at my sarcasm.
He was about to reply but then he started to get surrounded again and he had to go back to work again so I drank my other shot. I stared at him in awe at his work...
I sighed.
What was I gonna do about my marriage?
I was still in shock.
But then again being away from my family didn't sound so bad.
Why are you still thinking about it? My conscience asked...
I sighed heavily.
" Another drink?" The bartender asked.
I grinned. " Yeah, I guess, give me some more of this tequila." I said.
Michael placed them in front of me and turned to a girl next to me.
Did you bring money? My conscience asked, again.
Shoot, I didn't... How was I gonna pay?
I shrugged at myself, I'll find a way.
I drank my shots and asked for more.
After 15 shots my stomach burned but they now tasted like water. I needed something stronger.
I won't race anymore, my brain reminded me.
I could still think straight. Not good.
"Michael do you have something stronger?" I asked.
He looked at me and turned around. I looked at where he was looking, and I saw a lot of bottles. I don't think they were all tequila. I felt stupid for asking him that when it was obvious he did have something stronger.
" Yeah um... Sorry. Just give me something. " I said.
He smiled, and his dimples showed.
I then had a cup in front of me. I didn't know what it was, but I drank.
I saw Michael keep serving and I sipped.
" What's a pretty lady like you doing here? " A guy asked.
I got annoyed instantly! Right now, I wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone.
" What does it look like I'm doing?" I asked.
" Wow!! Why the tone with me honey, who broke your heart?" He asked again.
" I don't even think I have a heart. " I answered.
He raised an eyebrow at me.
" Michael can you give me another one?" I asked. Trying to ignore the guy.
