Thread: Beautiful Disaster [[Writer & AshlinnRose]]

Ash cursed under her breath as she hurried towards the door of the club, having parked her bike back in the alley beside the large building. She hated it when she was running late like this, as it meant that whomever was on shift that night would end up having to run the bar alone for a bit and she didn't like leaving anyone alone to do that. The bar area of the club that she worked at was far too big for just one person to handle it comfortably, especially on the nights when the club was packed to the point of bursting. She prayed silently that this wasn't one of those nights where it was packed that full, as she wasn't sure what exactly she would do if it was and she had just left someone on their own for who knows how long. She was aware that Pratt had been working that night, as he had shot a message her way to get her into the bar, but that meant that he was probably already long gone. She slid out of her coat as she reached the door, gripping her bag in one hand as she pulled open the door. Her outfit always fit the scene of the club and she was one of the bartenders that flaunted her body in order to get more tips. That particular evening she had dressed in a tight corset that was accented with hints of red, tight black pants, and thigh-high lace up heeled boots. However, she managed to walk into the room just as the music was cut off and the sound of a bottle smashing could be heard. Well hell... she muttered, slipping back behind the bar and setting her stuff down on a table that couldn't be reached by anyone at the bar. Hey... Come on... Let's get this cleaned up... she murmured softly as she came up behind Jai, very gently taking the girl's wrist and leading her away from the mess carefully, wanting to avoid her slipping or getting injured by the shards of glass. She looked up towards the DJ and signaled him to start the music again, always having been the type of person to have a very commanding personality. Her deep, lapis-lazuli blue eyes were piercing as she flashed a threatening look at those still staring at the poor girl who had had nothing more than a little accident, something that everyone in the club had to have had at least once in there time there. Hey... It's okay.. Everyone makes mistakes... she murmured softly as she sat the poor, trembling girl down on a stool. She lightly rested her hand against Jai's cheek, offering her a small smile before turning and grabbing the broom. She made quick work of sweeping up the glass shards and getting them into the trash. She then grabbed a rag and wiped up all of the spilled bourbon, knowing that she needed to make sure that everyone was doing alright from the crash. She threw the rag back into the sink before making her rounds around the bar to make sure everyone was good. She finally reached the man at the end of the bar and arched an eyebrow, I'm sorry, were you the man who ordered that bourbon? I'll get you one right away, sir. Her words practically slid out of her as she spoke, her musical voice practically trained in the work of being the perfect bartender and ensuring that everyone was well taken care of and happy with whatever it was they had ordered, even if they ended up not liking what it was that they got. Her hips swung a bit as she moved back to the glass, dumping the half melted ice and refilling it before grabbing a fresh bottle of bourbon. She poured the drink expertly before putting the bottle back and making her way back to him. Here you are, sir. I am so sorry about that, she murmured with a pretty little smile before she flounced away again, her hips swinging easily and visibly due to the heels that she wore. She was naturally around five feet and eight inches, or so, but with the stiletto heels, she was a good five to six inches taller. Are you okay? You look like you saw a ghost... she muttered when she finally made her way back to Jai, crouching down some in front of the girl. She gently reached up to grasp the poor girl's jaw, tilting her face up some to look her over. She looked deep into her eyes for a moment before releasing her and grasping her hands, wanting to make sure that she didn't have any injuries from the bottle, as it was possible that it had already been cracked and that was why she had dropped it. You are shaking like a leaf, hun... Can I get you anything to help you? she asked after a moment, true concern showing in her expression as she looked up at the poor girl. Ash's voice carried a hint of a French accent, revealing that she had not always lived in the city that she now lived. She was around twenty five years of age, which was probably why she was so concerned about Jai, as she just knew that the girl was younger than her. She wanted to make sure that the poor thing was alright, though she knew that now was not the time to try and figure out why exactly she had panicked or dropped the bottle. She had already decided that she would take the pay cut for the other girl, as that had been an expensive bottle and she knew that her tips would make up the difference.
