Can't have you face-plant or I'd be in trouble for serving you too much!"I basically spent the night at the corner side of the bar making small talk w...th Vivian. We talking about anything and everything. She would serve a bunch of people, then come back to me, and that kept going for the whole evening. By midnight she started to partake in shots with me.

The sleepy expression on her face gave way to a big smile that filled me and our bond with warmth and love. I smiled back and watched, and she sat up, beginning to stretch out her muscles.
