—— ❝ C'est La Vie ❞ ——
I blinked, surprised as he took the shot so quickly. To be quite honest, I hadn't expected him to go for it. I chuckled, downing my own glass right after he did. A fiery burn accompanied the drink. "Ta' shitty days," I said back. I scoffed at the pet name. "I think your gay side is creeping out, mate," I rolled my eyes., and paused. I looked back, searching for the woman I had seen him with earlier. Would she be okay alone? "Didn't you leave your friend? You sure shes safe alone? Not saying shes weak, but..." I trailed off.
I stood up, taking the other shot. I made a face and shook my head. "Damn, alcohol is terrible." I cursed. I smiled at him and slammed my hands down on the table. If I wasn't totally smashed before, I was now. "Alright, you should go get her, and we can go to a club or something, I'm bored of this place," I said loudly, probably a little bit too loudly, since I turned heads yet again. Honestly, this was a bar for old men! Have some fun, yell a little! Clubs are loud and noisy, and basically the worst place on earth, so I definitely wanted to go. I know I'm still hammered, but it would feel wrong if I left the woman alone, not just because she could be victim to a date rape drug or some messed up shit like that, but also because she was being left out. "Or," I said, just a tiny bit quieter this time. "We could go see Deadpool two, because why the hell not? It's perfect to watch when you're totally drunk, right?" I gave him a thumbs up and the bar waitress waiter whatever you call them came over to me. I'm totally out of it, its bar tender, right? Or like chicken tender? I have no idea.
I gave him my credit card. "Pay for that dumbasses crap too," I said, pressing the card into the guy's hand. "I'm feeling waaaay too generous," I told him, and he nodded distantly. He pressed a few buttons or whatever on the thingy and gave me my card back. Que the fake smile and 'Have a nice night!'.
"Resurgam."
