Lucas sat at the bar in Montero's Bar and Grill. He had a glass of whiskey in his hand, making the occasional sip. On the big screen above them a Rangers and Canadiens game played. Lucas wore simple clothes tonight, different an what he would wearin the day when on the job. He wore a dark pair of jeans, with a tight cut, a blue button up that almost looked denim, a silver wristwatch, and black sneakers. During the daytime he was a defense attorney, and quite a good one, he had a small firm of his own. He had just finished a long term case with a client, and won. So he was treating himself to a few drinks tonight. He had come to the bar alone, not having a vast friend group, and never having gotten married, he liked to mingle and meet new people whenever he could. New people that weren't clients or other attorneys. But having not been married, he liked to find girls at the bar that he could just take home and have a night with. Of course he always kept clean, and always wore condoms. He didn't need to be taken to court for child support, or find out he had anything. No girls lasted more than a night, he had a few one night stands he hit up a few times, but they all knew that's all it was. As Lucas looked around the bar he saw a girl who seemed lonely, she was at the end of the bar. He motioned for the bartender, telling hi to send a drink over to the girl for him. When she received the drink, and the bartender pointed Kenny out, he gave the girl a smirk and waved.
Lucas leaned back into his seat and allowed his eyes to drift up to the game on the screen. This was his usual approach. Order the nice lady a drink and then seem uninterested, let them come to him. As the bartender passed Lucas leaned forward and ordered himself an appetizer. Checking his watch Lucas realized it was only 9:30, he really had thought it was later. But timing was good. He would be able to be social for longer than he anticipated. The nights where he didn’t meet his friends at the bar always seemed to come up empty for him, so he was determined to make the most of tonight. the rest of the week he was sure his small clique would want to be hanging out.
