Note: This takes place yesterday, so Monday. Not today, Tuesday. Anyway, this is trash 5000 and I'm sorry if you read this. Also ignore all the errors that I'm sure are in there because I did not read over this or edit it.

 ...~*~... 

Olivia finished her short performance on the little stage in the bar. A few weeks ago she had finally convinced the manager to let her be a performer in the bar. Usually he claimed that bartenders weren’t allowed to perform, but when she kept bothering him about it and singing randomly as she served drinks, he finally gave up and allowed her to have one performance. If it went well, he’d let her perform again. Now, from the sounds of cheering and clapping from the small crowd, she knew that she had performed well enough to get to do this again. All she wanted was to be able to one day quit her job as a bartender and actually become a performer, as unlikely as that was. Knowing how her luck tended to go, she knew the chances of becoming famous were slim to none.

As Olivia exited the stage and walked through the crowd, she found herself getting closer to the bar so she could get herself a drink. As she did so, a guy at the bar smiled in her direction. “That was great,” he said.

“Thanks,” Olivia replied, smiling.

“Hey, I think I know you.”

“Oh?”

“Yeah, you’re my usual bartender, right?” he asked.

Olivia rolled her eyes and walked away from him. The last thing she wanted that night was to think about her job as just some bartender. She walked over to her best friend and roommate Miranda, who was walking towards Olivia too. “Oh my god!” Miranda screamed over the loud music in the bar from the next performer. “You were perfect up there!”

“Wasn’t I, though?” Olivia said, dramatically flipped her hair over her shoulder and laughing. “By far I’ll be the best performer tonight.”

“Well duh!” Miranda exclaimed, laughing too.

In the corner of her eye Olivia saw the guy from the bar making his way over to her. She rolled her eyes and saw Miranda give her a weird look. “You again,” Olivia said, as the guy finally reached the two girls.

“Sadly,” he joked.

Olivia crossed her arms over her chest. “May I help you?” she asked.

“Well, I wasn’t finished telling you about your performance.”

“Mhm. I’m sure.”

“You were absolutely beautiful up there,” he said.

“Me or my singing?”

“See, I was originally thinking just your singing, but definitely you too.”

“I’m not interested,” Olivia said, starting to turn away from the man.

“Yeah, I can really tell from how you were blushing.”

“I wasn’t blushing!” she said while turning back around towards him, a blush coming onto her face as she said the words.

“Really?”

“It’s the weird lighting in this dark bar that you’re seeing.”

Miranda, who had been standing there all along, looked between the two. “Right. So, dude, you can go now. My friend and I...” Miranda trailed off as she saw Olivia give her a look that they always used to signal the other to go away. Miranda raised her eyebrows and Olivia just shrugged. “My friend and I were going to get drinks and right now we don’t have any. I’ll be right back.”

“If it’s drinks you want I can always get you something,” the guy said, glancing over to see Miranda leave and then quickly looking back at Olivia.

“Maybe later.”

“Ah, so I get a maybe. That’s good enough for me.”

Olivia rolled her eyes. “I’m Olivia, by the way.”

“I’m Brian.”

“Well, Brian. What brings you around this great Monday night?”

“Mondays are just always nice nights to get alcohol,” he joked. “It sucks having work the next morning though.”

“As you already know I don’t have that problem. I already work nights.”

“Lucky you.”

“So where do you work?” Olivia asked. “You already know where I work, so it’s only fair that I know about your job.”

“I work here in town. Leroy’s Auto. I’m a mechanic,” Brian answered.

“I’ve been there a few times. I don’t recall seeing you around.”

“Must’ve been my off day then. I’ve been working there since...” He paused and tried to think of how long he’d been working at the shop. “I don’t know. At least five years now.”

Brian and Olivia talked for a while longer. Brian started to glance around and then looked back at Olivia. “I hate to break it to you,” he started. “But I think your friend isn’t coming back with a drink for you.”

Olivia laughed. “Yeah, trust me, I’ve noticed. I didn’t think she would anyway.”

“Do you want to go get something?” Brian asked, motioning towards the bar.

“Definitely,” Olivia answered, hooking her arm with Brian’s and walking with him towards the bar. They both ordered their drinks and started drinking a lot. Brian had already been a little drunk beforehand, but Olivia soon caught up. Before long, Olivia had dragged Brian out towards the dance floor. They hadn’t done really any dancing, but were mostly standing off towards the side and talking.

“So, Thanksgiving. What are you doing?” Olivia asked him.

“Nothing at all. The perks of having a happy family.”

Olivia laughed loudly, and then quickly covered her mouth with her hand as her eyes grew wide from her outburst. “Oh my god!” she slurred. “I am so, so, sooo sorry for laughing.”

“Go ahead and keep laughing. I’ll join in.”

Olivia giggled and shook her head. “No, I’ll stop. But I’m not doing anything either. My roommate, that blonde girl from earlier, is going to see family so I’ll be partying by myself.”

“Yeah, me too. I’ll probably go out somewhere super fancy to eat. Like Denny’s,” Brian joked because no one goes to Denny’s.

Olivia giggled. “Super fancy.”

A song began to play and Olivia’s eyes widened with excitement. She grabbed onto Brian’s wrists and pulled him close against her. “I love this song!” she exclaimed. “Let’s dance.”

“Okay, sure,” Brian said, laughing at her enthusiasm. He pulled his wrists out of her grasp, as she was barely holding onto him, and placed his hands on her hips. Olivia moved her arms around her neck and started to somewhat dance with him. As the singer began singing, Olivia stopped dancing and frowned. “What is it?” Brian asked her.

“This isn’t what I thought it was. I hate this song,” she said, still frowning and letting out a long sigh. “I don’t want to dance anymore.”

“What do you want to do then?” Brian asked, his hands still on her hips and their bodies pressed together.

“I don’t know,” Olivia said, shrugging her shoulders. “This song just really sucks.”

“Then don’t think about the song.”

Olivia nodded her head. “Good plan,” she replied. She leaned towards Brian and quickly kissed him on the lips. She pulled away, frowning. “I can still hear the song though.” Brian laughed and leaned down and kissed her again. She kissed him back. They pulled apart from the kiss and Olivia smiled up at him. “I forgot about the song for like a little while,” she joked. Brian smirked, moving his hands up to her neck and kissing her again.

Olivia pulled away from him after a short while and shook her head. “I don’t like kissing in front of all these people,” she told him. She moved away from Brian’s body and grabbed onto his hand. She walked him towards the bathroom, which was just a little room meant for one person at a time. Olivia pulled him inside and closed the door, locking it behind them. Brian pressed her up against the wall and began kissing her. They made out in the super romantic bathroom until someone started angrily knocking on the door. Olivia groaned in annoyance at the person and opened the door. “Shoo!” she shouted until she realized it was Miranda. “Oh, hey,” Olivia said, smiling and completely changing her tone of voice. “I didn’t know it was you.”

“It’s time for you to go,” Miranda said, grabbing Olivia’s wrist and pulling her out of the bathroom.

“But I don’t wanna,” Olivia whined. She leaned closer towards Miranda so that her lips were at her ear. “I want to fuck,” she whispered in between giggles.

“Sorry but you’ve got a rule about that,” Miranda said.

“Ugh,” Olivia groaned. “Fine!” She pulled her arm out of Miranda’s grasp and went back to where Brian was standing outside of the bathroom. “I can’t really remember my number right now, but...” She trailed off and pulled out her phone. She somehow managed to open up a new contact and handed her phone over to him. Brian put his number in her phone and Olivia smiled. “My friend is forcing me to leave, but before that.” She leaned up and kissed him. “I will call you!” Olivia told him, leaving with Miranda while putting Brian’s contact name as Bar Guy Brian in her phone.
