the kindest of kisses

break the hardest of hearts

the big hand met the little hand. the clock struck 8pm, the night was still young. daisy sipped on her vodka and lemonade as she sat alone at the bar. she wasn't 21 yet, but the bartender never asked for her ID, he was always too busy flirting with her, but it was only a few months until she would be turning 21 anyway. she was looking forward to that, looking forward to going out in clubs without having to worry about whether or not she'd get in. still, her age wasn't going to get in the way of her drinking habits.

daisy finished off her 3rd vodka and lemonade. she perched on the bar stool, still in her work uniform which was a short sleeved black shirt and a black skirt and to accompany that she had a name badge pinned to her which read "hello i'm daisy". it had been a long day for daisy. she had spent the past 8 hours serving fries, burgers, pizza and all other kinds of heart attack food. her cheeks were sore from all the false smiles she had to give, along with the false laughs. she wanted nothing more than to slap most of the customers across the face with their burger. she learnt the hard way though when she was sacked from her previous job after telling a customer to get fucked. now daisy puts on a fake smile and acts like little miss perfect. daisy was glad to finally relax and unwind without the screams of "double cheeseburger with no tomato" or "hotdog with extra onions". the only downside was she had to go back to that hellhole tomorrow and face the same shit all over again, but it was the only way to keep herself afloat. sure the bills were paid and food was bought thanks to her brothers business, which was dealing drugs to half the neighbour but daisy liked to look after herself without having to rely on her brother too much.

yes she loved her brother, but daisy enjoyed spending time away from home. there was no relaxing there, people were always coming and going at all hours. daisy mindlessly clicked away on her phone as she finished another vodka and lemonade.

"same again please" she called out to the bartender.

While the night was still young, it had been a long day. Jimmy didn’t really want to go out, but a friend from back home was in town and wanted to meet up for drinks. Even though he was tired, he had gone to Cross Fit and it re-energized him. Maybe grabbing a drink wasn’t such a bad idea. Agreeing to meet up at a place he had been to before, he would get there a little early, per usual for Jimmy. He always tried to be 10-15 minutes early because you never knew what would happen.

Tonight, however, he was left to his own devices now. Sitting at a table a little ways from the bar, he got a text saying that his friend couldn’t make it. Shaking his head and rolling his eyes, it would seem that not much had changed between the two of them. It was why Jimmy was so hesitant to accept it in the first place. This guy was the type of friend that would go through all the effort of creating an event, getting everyone to go, and then not showing up. It’s how he had always been but when you don’t see someone for 6 or 7 years, you assume that some things might have changed. Jimmy had learned however that people don’t really change.

There was a skirt at the bar that drew his attention when he dropped the phone. Looking down her legs, then back up, he bit his lower lip as he checked the girl out. Lifting his drink to his lips, he would divert his eyes away from her before he got caught. It wasn’t the first time that he had checked her out, and it wouldn’t be the last. However, since he was going to be here alone, he might as well make the best of a situation. Slipping out of his seat, he approached where the girl was sitting as she ordered another drink.

”I’ll have what she’s having. And put them on my tab.”

Turning to face her, he would notice that had her phone out. Maybe she was waiting for someone as well. Perhaps waiting for the rest of her coworkers to get off so they can talk about their day and vent about their jobs. This was at least her second drink that he had seen so maybe they’re running late. Or perhaps she’s meeting with a room mate after work? One thing he knew for sure…her name was Daisy.

”Would you mind if I join you while you wait for your…boyfriend?”

the kindest of kisses

break the hardest of hearts

daisy was checking her phone when she heard someone enter the bar. she looked over towards the door and watched a young man enter. a good looking young man too. she watched as he sat down at a table, a short distance from the bar. it was clear he was waiting for someone as he checked his phone. daisy turned her attention back to her own phone.

the news was on in the background. daisy glanced up for a moment, diverting her attention away from her phone. the news was something that daisy took an interest in since she was studying journalism at college. if she was going to start a career in journalism she would need to pay attention to the news. writing about other people's lives always seem exciting to daisy. she wasn't much for factual news, more the showbiz news where some celebrities life is falling apart because he's been sleeping with the maid. it reminded daisy that not everyone’s life is perfect, even the rich and famous. plus daisy was a watcher, she enjoyed watching other people, watching their drama unfold, but never get involved. just observe from afar. so in reality journalism was a perfect career choice for her, on top of that she had a way with words. she hoped that one day she would make it out there in the big wide world. she would make something out of her life unlike her brother.

daisy’s phone vibrated and she torn her eyes away from the screen. speak of the devil. it was her brother. a text asking where she was and whether she'd like to go and visit their younger sister in jail tomorrow. she ignored the text. not only did she have work tomorrow but daisy didn't want to see her little sister behind bars. she knew her brother wouldn't worry about her whereabouts, he knew she could look after herself. daisy carrying on pressing away at her phone. she was sending a few texts out to friends to see if anyone was up for a party tonight, or even a small gathering. most declined, saying they were preoccupied and others didn't reply.

someone had joined her at the bar. it was only when they spoke daisy looked up from her phone. the male voice had caught her attention. it was the man she observed earlier when he entered the bar and he was offering to buy her a drink. she gave the man a brief smile.

sneaky question. a boyfriend? "if i was meeting my boyfriend i would probably of gone home and got changed beforehand" she replied, "feel free to join me, i'm not waiting for anyone"

”My name is Jimmy.”

Extending a hand in her direction, he would offer her a smile as he looked into her eyes. She was even more gorgeous close up. The fact that she wasn’t waiting for her boyfriend didn’t necessarily mean that she didn’t have one. He would figure all of that out later as he didn’t really care if she had a boyfriend or not. Making new friends was what Jimmy was all about. But sometimes you wanted to introduce benefits into friendships. She was definitely gorgeous. There was an interesting look in her eyes. He wasn’t sure about this Newport Beach town. It just seemed like everyone here was so stressed out. It didn’t make sense because they lived on the beach and it was always summer time. That being said, he wouldn’t bring up this boyfriend unless she did.

”I didn’t feel comfortable letting you sit here alone in a bar. There’s a lot of strange guys walking around.”

Glancing over his shoulder, he would nod toward a guy at a table that was pounding his fist onto her and shaking his head. It couldn’t have been better timing to be honest. It was almost as if he and Jimmy were in cahoots. Turning his attention back to her as the bartender would slide the drinks in front of him, he was making his snap judgments of her. Smiling at her as he would lift his drink, he would look into the glass and then back into those gorgeous eyes of hers. He would fall silent for a moment or two and then give a nervous grin, looking down sheepishly.

”I’m apologize if I appear to be staring it’s just…I don’t usually see models this close. So what are we drinking? Is this your favorite?”

Lifting his glass, he would examine it for a moment. He didn’t hear what she had ordered, but it looked interesting enough. He was the adventurous sort and ok with trying something new.

the kindest of kisses

break the hardest of hearts

daisy eyed jimmy for a moment. a shaking of the hand seemed a little formal, still if this is how he wished to introduce himself then so be it. daisy extended her hand and shook jimmy's hand gently, her eyes still focused on him. she looked into his piercing blue eyes. he was very handsome. still, daisy knew how to keep her cool around gorgeous guys.

"my names daisy" she replied. though it was pretty obvious with her name badge on display. she him gave a small smile, "pleasure to meet you jimmy" daisy added, as she lowered her hand from the handshake.

indeed, there was a lot of strange men hanging around in the bar. there always was. they were usually drunk men lingering round her, but she enjoyed entertaining a few with small conversations and subtle flirting. it was all fun and games to daisy, she liked wrapping people round her little finger. plus a few would buy her a drink or two, then she'd pretend to have something urgent to attend to and leave them standing at the bar.

daisy peered back at the guy jimmy mentioned. she smirked as she watched him. the guy was either drunk or a complete loon. either way, she saw it as something to laugh at. "they're part of the furniture" daisy said as she turned back to jimmy. she picked her drink up and took a mouthful as jimmy looked between her and the drink.

"a model?" daisy responded. she raised an eyebrow, that was a new compliment to her, "i'm just your standard girl next door"

daisy was swift to take another mouthful of her drink, quickly swallowing. "vodka and lemonade" she placed her glass down, but kept her hand loosely round the glass, "i don't have a favourite alcoholic drink. anything floats my boat, apart from whiskey. that stuff is awful"

”Oh you’re not a model.”

Snapping his fingers he would flag down the bartender and pull a little bit of a jerk move. Pointing at her drink, he would make the cut throat sign. This was Jimmy’s way of saying that he wasn’t paying for her drink. Jimmy was sure that she wasn’t a model. She could be some kind of amateur who was looking for a break, but she was in the wrong part of California for that.

”Just kidding.”

Smiling a little, it was his attempt at a joke. To kind of take the edge off. If not for her, for him. While he wasn’t nervous, he did realize that he greeted her like she was a patient. Stating his name and shaking her hand. He didn’t want her to think that he was some kind of lame, so he figured he’d take a shot at her. Sipping his drink, he didn’t really like it, but you wouldn’t be able to tell by his face. Taking a deep breath, he couldn’t have agreed more.

”Ugh. I can’t do whiskey. I don’t understand how it’s so popular to be honest.”

Getting comfortable, he was learning things about her and breaking down and analyzing them to build a picture about Daisy. From what he could tell, she was single. Evidenced by her being here alone. Her girls probably had other things to do but she wanted to get out so she did so anyway. Obviously she was a waitress. It was way too early for Halloween. You could make the argument that it was too late for Halloween, but no matter how you sliced it, there was no need for you to be in costume. She seemed to lean toward vodka based drinks. There was a study that he read about the drinks people ordered. Looking into her eyes, he would glance down at her glass and then back into her eyes.

”I’m a fan of rum myself. I just hate when they stick the umbrella in it. I mean nothing says manly like walking around with neon green straws and umbrellas in your drink. Am I right?”

Judging from what was in her hand, she was the fashionable type. A very ambitious woman with an expensive taste. The type of woman that liked to be in charge, yet challenged. And so, here he was, challenging her. Giving a little tug on his sleeve, his Michael Kors watch would show that he himself had expensive taste as he would lift his glass once more.

”Enough about me. What brings you out tonight?”
