bartender

Axel was standing outback of the gallery he owned and was smoking a cigarette. He had just gotten it lit and taken a puff when someone approached him and he raised a brow. "What's up? I promise I will help with whatever you need as soon as I'm done." @rededgerpstarterblog

"I'm no rush, I promise. I needed a break from my life." He chuckled. "How are you doing though, Axel?"

"Thank you so much for coming." Dorian said with a smile as he walked up to meet his friend in the VIP section of Velure. "How have you been? I hope you're having fun tonight." @rededgerpstarterblog

"Dorian, thank you for inviting me out and letting me sit in the VIP section. I seriously needed this night out. I don't know the last time I had any fun like this." He admitted and looked at Dorian. "How are you?"

"Oh that is very true, thank God we don't live in Florida and just live in a place where a nameless and faceless mayor controls everything."

Luca laughed. "I'd rather live in Florida sometimes if I'm being honest." He admitted and then shook his head. "At least we don't have too much to worry about in here though."

"I know we just spent a whole month in Italy, but I am ready for another vacation. I felt so refreshed while we were away." @rededgestart

"Hey, I think that's pretty normal, actually." He looked at Devin and smiled at her. "How are doing though? If you could pick where our next trip is, where would you pick?"

"There's just something so magical about when tourist season begins. Not only because they boost our economy, but because it's really fun to see them make assholes out of themselves." @rededgerpstarterblog

Luca laughed. "It's always fun." He said with a smile. "It could always be worse though, you know that?" He looked at him. "We could live in like Florida or some shit."

"Do I look like this is my first time at a bar? Especially with you." He laughed and shook his head. "No, I will not be mixing those two drinks together, but you can do that."

"Do you want me to answer that honestly?" He teased him with a smile. "Oh come on, what if I take back what I say and I do it too?"

"Who in the fuck do I look like to you, Luca?" She teased with a laugh. "I am not mixing those two damn shots together."

"You look like someone who'll take those shots, Kat." He laughed. "Why not?"

"Do I look like a fresh twenty-one-year-old to you, Luca?" Elena asked with a laugh. "Hell to the no, I am not mixing those shots together."

"Would you do it if I did tell you that you looked like a fresh twenty-one-year-old?" He asked with a smile. "Oh come on El, it'll be fun. I'll even do one with you!"

Ivy smiled at him when he gave her the warning and stayed looking at him as she drunk them both. " Mmm... there's many things you don't know about me Luca and holding my liquor real good is one of them. So taste is the least of my worries," she laughed.

"Damn Ivy, I give you props for doing that." He said with a chuckle. He was clearly impressed by how she did that. "Not many people would do that."

"I find that really hard to believe, like you said, you're a bartender, you have to have exciting stories." He said with a laugh. "Uh, an old flame of mine is back in town so I guess that's exciting?"

"I mean, I wouldn't call them exciting, really, I would just call them another day at work." He admitted with a laugh and looked at Noah.

Emersyn glanced at the two glasses in her hands, then up at Luca with a slow, unimpressed look. "You are unbelievable. So your professional advice is no, but your personal entertainment plan is yes? That feels like a conflict of interest." She tilted one glass slightly, pretending to consider it before setting them both down. "Relax. I like chaos, but only the controlled kind. If I am going to make a face tonight, it will be because I chose to, not because you needed a cheap laugh."

"Yes, exactly." He said with a laugh and looked at her with a smile. "Okay, that's fair." He said with a chuckle. "How are you doing though? Are you liking it here?"
