"Well, once the place shuts down people don't really see much of a reason to hang around, so they scatter. It never takes long. C'mon, I'm this way." Maya led him down the street. "So tell me, Tony, what is it you do exactly?"
_______
Inu leaned against the wet bar, her forehead resting in a puddle that had formed. Tallon and Ria had vanished in search of anything to soak up the water and Inu stayed at the bar, gathering glasses and bottles. She sighed and pushed herself up wishing she was wearing more than a red bikini top and skirt.
"I really should go change...." She mumbled.

"Eh... I don't live life in the fast lane as you do, but uh... I'm a business man." Tony said with a little laugh. "I spend a portion of my day sitting behind a desk." He turned to look at her. "And when you're not stopping bar fights.mixing up drinks, and stealing the hearts of strangers... what do you do with your free time?"

Cam spotted the bartender from earlier. He stepped up to the bar. "Hey, did you see the guy I was with? Shorter than me, tan skin, and Jewish?"

"Ah, my free time." Maya laughed. "That's where my exciting life ends." She shrugged her shoulders. "I spend most of my time at home when I'm not working. I get all my excitement at the club, so I'm not really a party person." She stared at the ground. "On my days off I tend to just curl up and watch old movies and tv shows, or read." She smiled. "Lame, isn't it?"
_______
Inu glanced up and shook out her wet hair. "Oh, him? He left with Maya about ten minutes ago. If you really wanted to you could catch them. They're only about a block away at best."

"Ha, not at all," Tony smiled. "It's comforting. I do the same." He couldn't put a label on the way that he felt at that moment. Relief? Comfort? Or maybe it had been something else. "Some of the best times I have are reading a book or watching TV alone." Tony paused a moment. "Well, maybe it's the only times I've had, for a long time at least."

"Yeah... I'm not going to cheat him out of a hook up. I'll ugh... wait by the car." Something sticky was on his lips. He wiped it off with a sleeve. Red lipstick. He shook his head.

Maya looked up at him, surprised. She had figured that a guy like Tony would have had woman throwing themselves at him. "Really? You've been alone that long?"
___________
Inu raised an eyebrow and grabbed a glass off the shelf. "Here." She called, filling the glass with whiskey. "What ever it is thats on your mind, you look like you really want it to be gone. This'll help."

"Uh... yeah." Tony looked to Maya and shook his head. "I'm not very popular in that department." He laughed lightly. "How about you? What are you doing home all by yourself? Don't take this the wrong way, but you're one of the most beautiful women I've ever seen..." he trailed off, heat pouring onto his face.

Cam welcomed the glass of whiskey. "Happiness is only temporary," he said more to himself than anyone. He downed half the drink, the heat hitting his throat imminently. It felt good.

She shrugged her shoulders. "When you live in the city like this...well...guys want someone to party with them. Like I said earlier, I'm not much of a party person." She stopped outside a large building. "Well, this is me..."
_______
"As far as I'm concerned...happiness is just a myth. Just like love and compassion." Inu ran her hand threw the water on the bar and sent it running to the floor.

Tony reluctantly looked up at the large building behind Maya. He didn't want the night to end and he certainly didn't want Maya to leave. "Well, maybe we can go get lunch tomorrow? I'll pay," Tony offered hopefully.

"I'll drink to that," Cam raised his glass and then downed the rest of the drink. His eyes traveled upwards towards the bartender. "You have a very gloomy outlook on life, I must say."

"I'd like that." Maya smiled. "And since you seem new to the whole 'city' scene, maybe I'll show you around a bit. Could prove to be fun." She turned toward the door of her apartment building and waved over her shoulder. "I'm on the tenth floor. Apartment 14." She said before sliding inside.
______________
"From what I can tell, you don't have a much better view of the world either, Tiger." Inu jumped up onto the bar, crossing her legs. "Someone who did wouldn't drink nearly as much whiskey as you do."

Tony smiled after her, caught in his own world. He literally felt as if he were suspended above all of this watching it happen. Hopefully he wouldn't screw it up. It already felt too good to be real. He felt too happy. With his heart still racing, he made his way back to the club on a cloud.

"Yeah well, the world looks better through a shot glass." They were words to live by. "And I'm glad I'm so readable."

Inu shrugged her shoulders. "Like I said. I'm a bartender. It's what I do." She pulled out the half empty bottle of Wild Turkey. "It's funny how much you can tell about a person by the alcohol they drink." She chuckled and put the bottle back.
_________
Maya closed her apartment door with a sigh and tossed her keys onto the stand beside the door. There was a rustle in the kitchen and she rolled her eyes.
"Seth what are you doing in my house?" She asked with a roll of her eyes.

"And what do you drink?" Cam tested. Just as he had spoken Tony stepped through the door. Cam spun around to see him, still smiling like a complete idiot. "Have fun?"
"Yeah, uh, ready to go?"
"Yeah, uh, ready to go?"
Inu looked up toward Tony. "I'll take it I'll find Maya safe in her apartment when I go home?" She questioned.
Tony laughed lightly. "Of course and if you don't, my number's on her phone."
"Great, now that you have a sex partner, my night is officially complete." Cam stood up from his seat at the bar. He set signed a check and was about to set it on the table, but thought against it and held it to Angel. "Ugh... here. I have no idea how much I drank so... this should cover it."
He turned and followed Tony out the club.

Cam chuckled as the door closed behind him.
"What was that about?" Tony asked, a smile still planted on his tanned face. Cam simply shook his head.

It was around 10:30 when Maya showed up at Inu's door. Ria glanced up from her coffee cup and Tallon lowered the paper. Inu turned in her seat and called,
"It's open!" The door opened and slammed shut and Maya walked in dressed in a pair of bootcut jeans and black t-shirt. "Well don't you look casual." Inu commented. Maya pulled up a chair and Tallon got her some coffee. "Plans today?" Inu asked, arching an eyebrow. Maya blushed and nodded her head.
"Actually yes. I have a lunch date....with Tony." Tallon turned.
"That guy from the club last night." Maya nodded her head. "Not bad. What's Seth think about this?"
"I haven't told him." Maya admitted. "And I don't plan on it either...you know how he gets."

There was a knock on the door, making the quiet house echo. After a few more knocks, Cam opened his eyes. Cursing under his breath, he struggled out of bed and stepped to the front door and opened it. Brian was on the other side of the door, holding a Tupperware. "What's that?" Cam asked as he eyed the dish.
"Uh, lasagna! Koko wanted me to bring some over for you."
Cam turned around and walked to the living room, leaving the door open so Brian could follow. Cam slouched on the couch and Brian watched him, his arms crossed. "You have to work tonight?"
"You bet."
"Be careful..."
"Thanks."
Brian let himself back out the front door. Cam had a feeling that Koko had sent him over. It was her idea of 'helping' him. She must not understand that he loved his solitude.

"So, what are your plans for today?" Tallon asked as she and Inu sat in the living room. Inu shrugged her shoulders.
"I don't know. Maybe I'll go shopping. Maybe I'll go on a nature walk. Maybe I'll go find some cute guy and hook up. The possibilities are endless Tallon piled her lavender hair onto her head and tied it back quickly.
"I think I might clean today."
"Ooooh so exciting."

Nerves shot through Tony as he drove through the streets of Bayville. It felt extremely hot in his car. He rolled down his window, letting it air out. "Hey, could you roll that back up? I'm freezing," a voice came from the back seat of the car. Tony jumped and in his review mirror he caught sight of a pair of honey colored eyes.
"Phil?"
"Hey!" Phil sat up straight. "So, where're you going. Hope you don't mind if I tag along."
"Phil?"
"Hey!" Phil sat up straight. "So, where're you going. Hope you don't mind if I tag along."
"Are you two seriously playing Rock-Paper-Scissors?" Inu asked as she walked into the kitchen to find Maya and Ria locked in combat. Ria looked up and hissed.
"Shhhh! You'll break my concentration." Inu rolled her eyes.
"Maya, shouldn't you be getting ready for your date?" Maya looked down at herself.
"I am ready." She said. Inu's brow wrinkled.
"That's what you're wearing?"
"Yes, Inu, this is what I'm wearing out to lunch. It's LUNCH not a night on the town." Inu laughed.
"Touche."
"Shhhh! You'll break my concentration." Inu rolled her eyes.
"Maya, shouldn't you be getting ready for your date?" Maya looked down at herself.
"I am ready." She said. Inu's brow wrinkled.
"That's what you're wearing?"
"Yes, Inu, this is what I'm wearing out to lunch. It's LUNCH not a night on the town." Inu laughed.
"Touche."
"Uh... I'm going to have to drop you off somewhere?" Tony shook his head.
"Why?" Phil asked.
"Because... I'm meeting someone."
Tony stopped the car in front of a burger place. "I'll pick you up around 2. Stay here!"
"Why?" Phil asked.
"Because... I'm meeting someone."
Tony stopped the car in front of a burger place. "I'll pick you up around 2. Stay here!"
Inu pulled on a pair of shoes and her coat.
"Where are you going?" Tallon asked. Inu shrugged.
"Out." She said, opening the door. "You know me, Tal, I can't stay cooped up for long...not even in my own apartment. Good luck Maya. Don't do anything I wouldn't do!" She closed the door behind her, Maya's laughter trailing after her down the hall.
