in front of the TV and doze off with a beer in her hand, that wasn’t a possibility. Rebecca leaned into her cubicle.
                  “Some of us are heading to the bar tonight. Think you can make time to go?”
                  Jane considered it. “If I do, I don’t think I’ll be getting any sleep tonight.”
                  Rebecca shrugged. “Who needs sleep? You need a drink before you explode and decorate this office, the bad way.”
                  Jane shook her head. “You have such a way with words.”
                  “It’s an art,” she said with a grin, “come on. My treat.”
                  “You’re such a cheater,” Jane said as she rolled her eyes and followed behind Rebecca.
                  It was only a Thursday night, but Crazy 8’s was packed. It seemed like the whole business district was stuffed inside of the electric neon blue decorated bar. As Jane looked around, she saw many of her older co-workers were there as well. Tucked into booths, drink in their hands, ties loosened and shoes kicked off, most of them didn’t look so threatening anymore. It was almost a phenomena to see them carefree, laughing.
                  “I think we slipped into an alternate dimension,” Jane mumbled.
                  “I know what you mean. It’s weird seeing them all together like this. Let’s sit in that corner over there.”
                  They passed Charlie on the way to their seats, giving her a little wave as they went. She wiggled her fingers at them as she spoke, the people around her seeming to hang onto her every word. Jane didn’t know how she did it. It was almost like an instinct, the woman started talking and you listened. They slid into the black, leather booth before two other people slid in after them.
                  “Oh Mckinnon, what the hell?” Jane asked exasperated.
                  The man rolled his eyes. “It’s the last open spot, what do you want me to do? Move?”
                  “We can leave if you ladies like,” the man with him started.
                  “Aaron, we’re not going anywhere. We saw this booth first. We just got held up talking to important people.”
                  Jane scoffed. “Well, then I guess you better go and sit with those important people. ”
                  Rebecca laughed. “The problem here is that he wasn’t important enough to sit with them. Ass kisser you may be, but after work, you’re still one of the newbies.”
                  Mckinnon opened his mouth to fire back, but the waiter showed up. For five minutes there was quiet at the table as they ordered their food and drinks. As soon as the waiter was gone, Jane leaned towards the other guy at the table. He was tall, thin with dirty blond hair and big, round blue eyes. He looked really young.
                  “I haven’t seen you around before. What’s your name?”
                  “Aaron Bean.”
                  “Where you from, Bean? I hear a little accent?” Rebecca asked.
                  “Well, originally Texas.”
                  “What’s with the thousand questions?” Mckinnon asked, scowling.
                  “What’s does it matter to you hot stuff? Jealous because we’re not focusing on you?” Rebecca asked with a raised brow. She looked back to Aaron, “You new?”
                  “I only started yesterday.”
                  “Your daddy must be really important for the likes of Mckinnon to give you the time of day,” Jane said as smirked. “What’s he do?”
                  “Well, we have some oil-”
                  Rebecca and Jane burst into a fit of laughter at the same time. Mckinnon sat scowling as he
