Hmm.. the twenty year old sighed, grabbing a glass and taking the bottle from the self. Pouring the liquid instead, his eyes quick glanced up at the customer who watched with careful eyes. The constant pressure didn’t put him off as easily as it done to him when he first started. Spilling the alcohol down the customers lap wasn't such a good impression.

It surprised him as he was usually so confident. It made him realize even confident people succumb to pressure. luckily, in time, he picked it up pretty fast, now the drinks fluidly lapped into the glass, without any mishaps."Here you go Miss he couldn't help but grin to the pretty platinum blonde sitting on the stool in front of the bar.

Her hand gingerly lifted to take the drink Thank you she smiled, her emerald eyes on his silhouette. "It's no problem, for such a dazzling young beauty such as yourself" the blonde male winked, hand on the wiping cloth he was using to wipe down the bar taps. He clearly was in the flirtatious mood tonight. She blushed a vivid colour on red on her cheeks, showing off her sweet smile.Sweet talker now aren't we? she almost purred, stirring the drink with a cocktail stick.

"What to you say if I ask for your number?"his eyes lit up, leaning across the counter when an angry fist thumped down behind him, startling them both. "Kano, you don’t have time to mess around, you get paid enough as it is! Come on! Back to work now" his stern boss narrowed his glare at him.

Regaining his composure, and slight embarrassment, he muttered a quick apology to the female, hands grabbing more glasses. If he weren't his boss, Kano would of been for sure the first to tell him where to go. But he needed the money; the rent had to be paid by Friday. So he was on a very tight deadline indeed. No matter how much this job sucked, he had to stick by it, only for the money.

It made a serious dent in his love life, not having enough social life or due to the fact his boss would scare away any potential material whilst he was working, becoming a lose/lose situation. Taking a short deep breath, the young bartender, purred the next customers drinks, trying to drown out the constant noise of the music, that by now was giving him a headache. Rubbing his forehead slightly, he wondered how he could possibly get through the night.

The boredom nagged at his mind as he cleaned the faucets and the counter top, taking ever quick glances at the females on entering. Being as flirtatious as he was, it was not much of a challenge to talk to them as well as charm his way into their quaint little lives. Filling up another order, his gaze turned to tables around him, ever on the hunt for more females or males that took his fancy. Oh yes, tonight was going to be a long night.

[ESE MIKUMO]

The dark haired girl tapped her fingernails against the table, waiting for her drink. She had probably been waiting 10 minutes, and she was becoming slightly irritated. Not that she wasn't impatient or anything...

Does it really take this long to bring a girl a glass of water?

She sighed, looking about the room. Waiters were going back and forth with drinks and things to give to their customers. Each customer looked a little different, some were girls with perfect curves and lips or just odd balls, like herself, then there were the men... Who she really didn't care about.

Mikumo gently removed the eyepatch that hid her right eye and removed the hairtie that held her hair up in a bun, shaking down her wavy locks. Apparently these movements caught hold of someone's eyes as a glass of water was set down on the table.

She looked up at the dark haired waiter standing infront of her. "Thanks.." You can go now.

The waiter, who just apparently happened to be a man, smiled, taking a seat in the chair across from her. The seventeen year old just blinked with a bored look on her face. (More like 'What do you want. You gave me my drink so go away' kind of look.)

"So, what's a girl like yourself doin' here?"

You can't be serious...

"I'm just hanging around, minding my own business..." She answered boredly, taking a sip of her water.

He laughed, which received a roll of the eyes in return. "So, my shift is almost over, how about you and I go hang out... together?" The man winked at her, causing her to sigh.

"No thanks. I'm not interested." Bye now.

He smirked, "Aw, a pretty lady like you shouldn't hang about by yourself at night-"

Crash.

The man toppled over onto the ground where pieces of glass lay. She smirked, "Like I said, I wasn't interested."

Mikumo put the eyepatch back over her right eye as she analyzed the unconcious body. His hair was wet, from the water in her glass no doubt, but thankfully there were no glass shards lodged in his head or any signs of blood, so she was pretty sure he'd be okay. The only thing she hadn't expected was him to become unconcious. She only tapped him.

Well, maybe might tap might've been a little too hard for my own good.

"Excuse me! Miss!" An older man came walking towards her. "We don't allow any violence here, so I must ask you to leave."

The girl just shook her head. "I was leaving anyway.." She flipped a coin into the man's hand, stepping over the unconcious body.

When she had exited through the door, she looked at the sky. Assuming how dark the sky was, the bus was probably gunna be filled with idiots and due to her lack of self-control when she became irritated, beat the crap out of them. So, that left her with the only other option: To walk home.

It wasn't like she couldn't take care of herself, but...

Maybe it is a better idea to take the bus...

And so, by the bus stop infront of the building... She waited.

- - - - - - IT'S A DANGEROUS LOVE AFFAIR

This was getting rather tedious now. The beautiful blonde had left, giving him nothing to oogle at anymore which made him more frustrated more than anything. Cooped up behind the bar quickly became no fun, soon as he applied for this job, which he had been doing for the past two years now. Kano much preferred to be where the action was, knocking down shots, chatting to gorgeous women, not that he didn't have a soft spot for men. he was always intrigued, thus making him somewhat interested or curious about the male sex. He did fool around with his own sex, only a little. For now, he was a firm ladies man, well in his mind.

For him, commitment was a big issue. Kano didn't stay with the same woman for long before he would move on to the next willing participant. It was fun and games to him, it kept his mind active. He was perhaps vain and slightly shallow at times, which didn't give him a good foundation for meeting others. Girls would either be put or turned on by his attitude and most of the time, it was certainly the latter.

He was confident; he just needed to learn the boundaries between that and cockiness. It was taking it's time, looking rather unfortunate as time wore on. He continued to keep the drinks flowing, only glancing a little around the bar. His eyes wandered around the tables of the customers, trying to place them.

Taking a deep filled sigh, he didn't recognise anyone in particular; just a bunch of the regulars and a few students that shouldn't be here anyways. It didn't catch his eye til an unfamiliar face flew into his line of vision.

A young woman, whom looked about in her late teens, perhaps 17 or 18, sat down at a table by herself. Taking a closer glance she had an eye patch. That intrigued him ever so slightly. But he could not move as he was too caught up in his work. He went back to business when he heard an ultimately crash. He clearly wasn't paying attention when the girl attacked him.

There was some slight chaos as she hurried off. It had startled big time. How can such a delicate girl do such a thing? glancing at the clock by the side, it was getting late, almost closing time. As he finished filing up glasses and clearing, he turned to his boss. "I gotta run, Boss need to babysit for my sister he bluntly lied, he didn't even have a sister. Okay so he had a brother, who, in more ways than one, looked and acted like a female anyway.

His boss oblviously nodded, as Kano arced past the guy who looked unconscious, grimacing. he ahted blood, it ahd always made him sick. With slightly gagging with his hand raised to his mouth, he stormed outside, that girl not far from his mind. he didn't know why but he wanted to see her, to make sure she was alright. It was so dark after all, anything could happen to her.

There at the corner of his eye, he saw her. Waiting, waiting, rather patiently by the bus top. He sauntered towards her, his expression relaxed."Heh that was some good fighting back you did there" the blonde smirked. "You alright?" he added, slightly concerned as he pulled out a cigarette and began to light it.

[ESE MIKUMO]

Mikumo patiently waited. No, more like impatiently, although externally you'd think she was calm about waiting. Internally, she was getting antsy even if only five minutes had passed. She just wanted to go home, and she really did not want to wait. But to possibly help the awfully slow time, she clapped her hand against her thigh, keeping to some sort of a beat.

The thought of just walking home came and went since she had already decided to wait then being the person that she was... Once a decision was made she'd stick to that decision, although, that didn't always happen.

"Heh, that was some good fighting back you did there."

The dark haired girl turned to look in the direction of the speaker which revealed a blonde man with purple glasses.

Oh Lord... He's not going to hit on me now is he. What an idiot.

"You alright?" He spoke again, pulling out a cigarette then lighting it.

The girl sighed, nodding. "I'm fine, thanks for asking. I just hit him on the head with my glass, no harm done really," she said, shrugging and her tone as in a"it's okay, it's not like he died" way.

Mikumo blinked, breathing in the smoke that came from the cigarette. She did her best to not make a sour face just because it was rude... No, that's a lie. Honestly, Ese Mikumo could really care less at times if she was being rude or not but most of the time it applied to people she knew well or if she thought you annoying. And so far, this random blonde man hadn't done anything to her except smoke, which he didn't know was uninviting to her tastes. Therefore, she let it slide, but the smoke didn't go by without a hopefully useful comment.

"I'm sorry, not be an ass, but do you mind?," the girl said, gesturing to the cigarette. "You do know that stuff shortens your lifespan and shit... But, you can do what you want I'm just saying." The half-blind really wasn't trying to do a guilt trip, most of the time she was, so if she sounded like she was trying to make him feel like he was going to die soon... She really didn't mean to.

"Er..."

Yeah, cue the awkward silence. God.

She just sighed, since she was already talking to him she might have as well introduced herself probably.

"I'm Mikumo," she said dully, removing her eyepatch once again, respectively.

Now that I've given you my name, don't stalk me.

He watched as she turned round to face him, he could take a proper look at her features, no lightened by the streets lights. Her appearance was somewhat different yet he couldn't help but wonder about her. Mysterious, that's what he like in a woman. He was strange that way but couldn't help it. But there was something slightly off about her, something he could not quite put his finger on. Shrugging, he sighed, knowing there was no harm in talking to her. If anything else happened, that was surely a plus.

He had no shoved his hands in his pockets, glancing at her again as he softly puffed away. Her reaction to knocking someone out as rather casual. Who on earth was this girl? He couldn't say much though, it was easy for him to beat people up without really realizing nor caring about the damage.

"Good. Fair point I guess" he smirked, his fingers loosely holding on to the cigarette that burned dimly in the dark night. He stood rather casually, the darkness not affecting him as much as the cold night air. It wasn't long before he noticed her sudden change of tone when she spoke again.

He scoffed lightly, although he was way used to this by now. He took the comment lightly, and shrugged, in his usual manner. "Yeah well I don't really care to be honest what happens to me. I'll never give up my habit" he grinned as the cigarette was placed at the edge of hsi mouth for a quick drag. It calmed him down rather quickly as he took another long drag. He sighed in quick relief at how long since he had his last one before work.

It seemed like days though almost it was just six hours. Still, even that was impossible for him. if he was asked to quit, he would not know what to do anymore. It had been his life ever since he was just fifteen and hasn't looked back since. Kano had enough stick about it, especially from his brother who would constantly nag him. But ofcourse he didn't listen as he did.

He couldn't help but notice her being uncomfortable around him, especially as there was a short span of utter silence. He didn’t like moments like these so he was rather grateful when she turned to him again, somewhat polite and answered with her name.

"Mikumo huh? Lovely name, it suits you" the blonde could not help but comment, oblivious as it may seem. He was about o take her hand, like a gentle when he decided against the idea. After all, she had already knocked out someone who had done presumably that. It sort of scared him, on how capable this dainty girl could be. "Oh I'm Kano, it's nice to meet you, even at this time of hour, it's great to meet new people" he added politely as he could, as he was taught by his parents. Manners were a useful thing to have, it was a shame he didn't use them often except to chat up girls.

"Aren't you cold? Here, have my coat" the young man offered his black sleeved coat to the young girl, his eyes looking through his purple tinted glasses, trying not to come off as mean. This was the right thing to do, right?
