#bartend

I’ve been seeing this a lot lately in my area. 

Bar owners are posting their employee’s pictures to the company page telling their clientele who is bartending that evening. 

This is a major threat to your bartender’s safety!!! Here’s why...

Chapter 2

And just like that, she wad part of the crew, working on their bikes during the evenings and on customers' cars during the daytime. Gemma displayed her artwork in the office after her first week, which caused more business as people brought in both their bikes and cars alike to be painted. She didn't take any extra payment, but she took dog toys and bowls and similar items to be donated to the local shelter as a thanks. Charlie was a part of everything she did, so it only made sense that she work to better his life and the lives of other animals. After a couple weeks of mass donations, the shelter contracted her to do artwork for their building and some portraits of their animals who were up for adoption as promotion. Soon enough, she had gained a following and business was picking up for both her and the shop alike.

With this, her and Juice started to get closer as well. If you couldn't find him at the shop or at his apartment or at the clubhouse, he was with Ryan and Charlie. He helped out around her house, fixing the leak in her kitchen sink and patching the piece of carpet leading into her bedroom. He helped her plant some vegetables in the back and helped her hang the rest of her pictures around the house. He never took payment, just dinner and a cold beer or two and a smile. Occasionally he would get a kiss to his cheek and that was more than payment enough for him.

"You've got Juice wrapped around your finger, you know?" Gemma commented one afternoon, having stepped into the new "art space" to let her know she had a new customer. Charlie perked up at her voice, standing to his full height from where he had been laying against Ryan's chair.

"He's just being sweet. I feed him home-cooked meals and I think that's what's keeping him close." She was laughing with Gemma, but something thumped twice in her chest at what the older woman had said. She didn't come out and say it, but she liked having Juice around. It broke up the monotony of her life, and it gave Charlie someone else to love on him.

"I think you could just give him a smile and he would still come around, sweetheart." She patted her hand and walked off, leaving her to get up and stretch before going to find her next customer.

Her words swirled around Ryan's head as she chatted with the woman in front of her, discussing the design she wants on her husband's new motorcycle as a birthday present. She had mentioned that her husband had been in a couple times to talk to Clay and Jax and saw Ryan's work on the walls and was in love. This caused Ryan to laugh, saying how she appreciated the praise but it wasn't necessary. They discussed a price and a time-frame to drop the bike off so she could work on it, and when to pick it up. Once everything was settled and the paperwork was filed, she thanked her with a smile and a handshake and decided that it was time for lunch right after. Most of the boys had already clocked out for their lunches so she let Gemma know she would be in the clubhouse for lunch if she was needed before heading out. Ryan slid off her work shirt and fixed her messy bun before grabbing Charlie's things from her truck and heading towards the clubhouse where she knew all of the boys were.

~~~~~ Juice ~~~~~

Juice was sitting next to Chibs, laughing at something he said when he heard the side door open. All of their heads turned to see who it was and a giant grin lit up his face when he saw Ryan and Charlie walk in for lunch. He was on his feet a moment after to give her a hug and help her with her things, Charlie content to let him get close as he surveyed their surroundings. Ryan smiled up at him and kissed his cheek in thanks before going to join everyone for lunch. He still can't help the light blush he gets after every kiss, but goes up to sit next to her nonetheless and finish his conversation with Chibs while she chats with Happy about their upcoming tattoo session. Juice was currently sporting his newest one, 19/15/01, in Roman Numerals along his inner right bicep. The numbers stood for the placement of the letters SOA in the alphabet. He had let her pick since it would be her first tattoo ever, and he loved how it turned out. Happy had sat next to her the entire time, explaining how everything had to be set up and showing her with his hands on hers so she would be able to learn by touch as well. Hap had done the stencil so it would be straight and handed her a pair of gloves before they got to work, Juice's eyes never leaving hers as she worked so diligently. This was two weeks ago and it was almost all the way healed, something that Ryan was immensely proud of. Especially since her doctor's appointment was coming up in a couple days and she was hoping for some good news. She was still turned talking to Happy, eating with one hand and had an extra free since she hooked Charlie's leash around her thigh. Before she had sat down, she had placed his food and water bowl down next to her so he could be in reach and eat peacefully while she chatted. This free hand, however, laid gently down on Juice's thigh, which caught him by surprise. She glanced at him shyly for a moment but left it there in hope that it would be okay. Even though Juice's heart was threatening to thump out of his chest, he laid his hand on top of hers and laced their fingers together as he continued chatting with both Jax and Chibs about an upcoming run to Arizona. Both of them sighed inwardly and had little smiles that no one caught on to. With this small action, Juice knew he was going to ask her out. Soon. He just had to figure out how and when, so he noted that he ought to talk to Layla as soon as he could.

~~~~~~Ryan~~~~~~

She still couldn't wipe the grin off of her face as her and Charlie went back into the garage after lunch, her hand still having a "ghost's touch" of Juice's fingers wrapped around hers. What Gemma said had spurred her action and she was pleased when Juice didn't push her away, but she also wasn't ready to cop to Gemma that she did, in fact, like Juice too. She liked the new stages of romance, and she liked to keep things quiet for as long as possible. Especially since she hadn't been in an honest relationship since her accident.
