Shayla looked at her empty shot glass. What was that her sixth drink, no seven, oh hell she had lost count. Who cared anyway. She looked down at the bartender and slid her glass forward waiting for it to be refilled. The old man behind the bar picked up a bottle and poured the clear liquid into her class. “Careful miss this is pretty strong stuff.” Shayla glared at him. “I’m not a kid, I can hold my liquor.” The bartender gave her a look before he went back to rising glasses. Shayla grabbed her glass and downed it, feeling it burn down her throat. She looked up at the clock but couldn’t quite make out what it said. She slapped a few woolongs on the bar and spun in the seat. Where was Shinto? She squinted trying to remember. He said he was going somewhere hadn’t he. Said something about need something or something like that. Oh well it really didn’t matter. She pushed open the door and stepped out into the cool night air. It was raining lightly, but she didn’t really care.
After walking for awhile her coat had become quite heavy. It really wasn’t really keeping her warm at all. All it was doing was making more weight. She slide of her coat and threw it into a dumpster as she walked by. The rain still fell making little patterns on the ground as it did so. She sighted and looked up at the sky. “Hey looking for a little fun, baby?” Asked a rather grimy looking man. Shayla raised and eye brow and looked him over. “You wish.” She continued down the street. After a while she had a strange feeling she was being watched. She turned and looked behind her. No one. She scanned the roofs of near by buildings. Still no one. She squinted her eyes. Maybe she was just being paranoid. Really who would be following her. She turned and walked down the street.
Ah home sweet home she thought as the apartment building came into view. Once she got home she was taking a long bath, then climbing into bed and not coming out for anything or anyone. She pulled open the front door and stepped him. She fumbled with her keys as she walked down the hallway. The front door opened and slammed shut. She spun and looked behind her. No one. Ok that was it. No more drinks for her, they were messing with her mind. She walked down the hallway and stopped at her door. She looked around once more, before opening the door and stepping. ‘Huh, I guess the bartender was right,’ she thought, ‘those drinks are strong. Oh well bath time.'
