Disclaimer: Thank you to the creators of Law and Order. I love your characters (they are not mine).
A/N: Here is something a little new for me. I am jumping off a bit from my "100 very short, shorts" (the bartender character is introducted with Mike Logan). I am playing around writing using a different style/ point of view. Please read/review and let me know what you think.
So I'm kind of fickle about the title.
1.
Detective Logan came into the bar tonight. I can't really figure him out. Sometimes he comes in for one drink, sometimes he stays for five. Sometimes he drinks alone, other times he is quite talkative and flirts without mercy with anyone sitting nearby.
Tonight I kind of felt like he was watching me. I have been serving him drinks long enough to know I am not his type. He seems to go for blondes or red-heads. Detective Logan seems more into the runway model type. I am not the runway model type.
I hope he made it home OK. It really is silly of me to think something like that. He's a cop afterall, so of course he made him home OK. It's just that tonight was one of those 5 drink nights. When he had paid up, I watched him stand, slowly, to catch his equilibrium. He had never really ever gotten stumbling drunk in my bar. I told him to keep warm, but I was fairly certain that he was drunk enough not to be too affected by the cold night.

Green, like moss. My eyes are green like moss. Standing there, brushing my teeth, I'm thinking that I wish my eyes were blue, or bright, or something other than green like moss. They have a nice wide shape, and I have nice dark lashes, but they are not blue, like hers.
Mike Logan left tonight with one of those runway model types. Tall, blonde, thin, bright blue eyes. She comes in the bar enough for me to know she is recently separated. I know her type, and I know that eventually she will go back to her husband. But tonight, she went home with Detective Logan.
Brownish, like mahogany I guess. My hair is kind of a mix of dark brown and black, like the grain in deep mahogany. So, I have moss eyes, and brownish hair, and I am thinking about a guy who clearly goes for pale blondes with bright blue eyes. Shame on me for wishing I am something I am not.
