More Than Just a Tough Girl

I set a glass of coke and Jack Daniels on the bar in front of some random customer and looked around at the bar. It was a typical night at my place; people were drunk as hell, and all over each other in either a sexual or fighting way.I couldn't wait to just get the hell out of here and go home (which, by the way, some of you were wondering if I actually have one :p I do haha.) I had my eyes on one particular girl that one night, and not just in a sexual way. Shocker, right? She looked so beautiful...yet tough. Like she would dance with a guy, but as soon as he grabbed her ass she smashed a beer bottle on his head. I tore my eyes away from her to poor someone a drink and when I looked back up, I saw four pairs of glossy eyes staring back up at me. Jamie, Carson, Dawn and Cristy. "Can you get us some drinks pleeeaasseee Buck? It's our, uhm, anniversary?" Jamie said looking at Carson, and Carson just nodded back at her. Kit and Angelica walked up then.
"I'd like a Dirty Martini Up." Kit said standing at the bar. I just stared back at her. "Uhh..please?" she said.
"Girls, when are you going to realize your just a little too young to be drinking. In bars." I said resting my elbows on the counter. They all just looked at each other.
"What do you mean?" Jamie asked.
"Yeah nothings ever stopped you before." Carson said.
I shook my head. "Right.." I said then started to make them some drinks.
"So, who was the girl you were checking out earlier?" Kit said as I handed her her Martini.
"I don't know what your talking about." I said nonchalantly.
"Oh come on. Everyone noticed. Was it one of us?" Jelly said.
"No, of course not." I said trying not to look them in the eye.
"Your lying!" Jamie said.
"Uhm..Cristy, drinking so soon after you just had your baby?" I said trying to change the subject.
"Oh shut up. I'm celebrating." She stuck her tongue out at me, then walked away with a drink.
"Come on Buck, you have to tell us. We already know that it's one of us because of how obvious your acting. And we're pretty much all taken already, except for.." Jamie trailed off.
"Give it a rest girls. I gave you your drinks. Now go have fun and stop bugging me, kay?" I said wiping the counters. They groaned, then all grabbed their drinks and left. That was a close one, I thought. I continued on through the night like usual. Just taking care of a bunch of drunks.
Oh and I'm going to have a huge New Years party at the bar. Drinks past midnight are on the house. :p

Every Nights a Party At Buck's

Being the owner of a bar, in a town like this, you know know everything about everyone. Fights, hookups, breakups, long lost relatives that tend to randomly show up round here....all the good stuff. Like some girl named Whitney Parker that came to the bar the other night, claiming she was related to the Parkers. She was beautiful...and her face wasn't too bad either ;) I let her stay in one of the small apartments above the bar, feeling pretty bad because they weren't exactly the nicest places to stay...but she had nowhere else to go and I couldn't say no to her. That's someplace that none of you have ever really dared to question before...the love-life of Buck Merrill. Not that I've never thought about having a "committed relationship" before, but it'd honestly just be too much work. I guess that's the "committed" part though, huh? :p You try maintaining a relationship and runnin a 24 hour bar at the same time...with all of the same crazy drunks in this town. And speaking of crazy drunks, look who just stepped into my bar; the one and only, Kit-Kat Curtis. And of course followed by Two-bit, Darry, Soda, Katie, Dimitri, Angelica, Dawn, Steve, Carson, Blair, Cristy...the rest of the gang..pretty much half of Tulsa. It's not a lie when someone says "It ain't a party unless KC is there." Then the night carried on as usual; everone got completely wasted, and if the single girls werent already hookin up with some drunk fool, they were dancin on-top of the bar. Most of the people there we're underage, which I could get in huge trouble for. But the cops know not to mess with this part of the town. The baddest of the bad come around here. Yeah...and so this post isn't really going anywhere :p haha. But it's my first so what the hell.
