I do not own Danni, She belongs to a fellow writer. I only own Nicole and Sarah so I'm giving credit where credit is due.
"Damn it's cold." Sarah said as she looked around.
"What did you expect? Warm?" Nicole asked with a raised eye brow and smile.
Sarah rolled her eyes and tighten the thick jacket around her body. Nicole looked around and noticed that some of the boats where pulling into the dock while the rest were leaving.
"Come on let's go to the Elbow Room." Nicole said nodding towards the bar that was looking somewhat abandon.
Sarah studied the building for a minute before following her friend into the building. A young woman with a bright smile and long black greeted the two women.
"I'm Danni what can I get you?" She said with a bright smile.
"What do you have?" Nicole asked looking at her as she sat down at the bar.
"We have alcohol, coffee, and believe or not hot chocolate." Danni said shaking her head at the women in front of her they were defiantly not from around here.
Sarah and Nicole looked at each other.
"I'll have a beer and she'll have a hot chocolate she isn't a drinker." Sarah replied taking her gloves off.
"Ok one beer and one hot chocolate coming up." Danni replied smiling.
Nicole looked around the room and took her jacket off at the few people that she was guessing were locals.
"Is it always like this?" Nicole asked as Danni put their order in front of them.
"Well mostly until the boats come in then it's full then you wish it was like this." Danni replied joking. "I take it your Nicole and your Sarah?" she added.
When Sarah looked up when she heard her name being said by the bartender.
"How did you know my name?" Sarah asked taking a swig of her beer.
"Well I know this little lady right here is going to be the Cornelia Marie with Phil he called and told me look out for a blonde and so far you're the only who has walked in here who is new so I kind of figured." Danni said with a smile. "As for you Sarah I was told by my lovely husband that you are going to be working with me. Because from the way that Phil described you you're not the girl who wants to go out so I was picked and hey I will not object you start work the day that the crib season starts." She added.
Sarah didn't say anything just nodded at the woman. Nicole poured her hair back into a messy pony tail and looked at Sarah who was just looking out of place.
"Nicole I am not sure but I do know that you will be up early tomorrow because they are more then likely going to send either Jake or Josh to come and get you." Danni said wiping the counter down. "Do you guys have a place to stay?" she added.
Both girls looked at each other quickly before shaking their heads.
"Figures." Danni said making the girls kind of frown. "I did not mean that in a bad way. There is an apartment upstairs so both of you can spend the night there and Sarah you can live there while you work here we know where Nicole will live." She added with a smile.
"On a boat with bunches of boys." Sarah replied with a smile.
Nicole stuck her tongue out and took a sip of her heart chocolate. Danni looked up as the door opened letting some of the warm air out and letting some cold in.
"Blake, close the door or get out." Danni said looking at her husband with a smile.
Blake looked at his wife and gave her a smile as he walked into the bar closing the door. Danni opened a beer and handed it to him as he sat down beside the two women.
"Don't you dare try to scare them off." Danni said pointing at him. "Nicole this is my crazy husband Blake the captain of the Maverick. Blake this is Nicole she is going to be working on Cornelia Marie and Sarah will be working with me as you know thought I'd let you see what the ladies looked like instead of talking about them." She added.
He smiled at her as looked at the girls who were talking to each other trying to keep to themselves.
"Alright I'm here." said a male voice.
Nicole turned her head to the sound of the voice and saw the door was open and a man was standing in the doorway with a huge smile on his face.
"Josh close the door right now its cold!" Danni shouted rolling her eyes at him. "I swear I'm raising kids." She added.
"HEY!" Blake said making Nicole and Sarah laugh at him. "I am not a child I am a grown man." He added.
"With childish expectations." Sarah replied before she could stop her self and slapped her hand over her mouth. "Oops." She added.
Danni looked at her with a bright smile on her face.
"You're already fitting in." Danni replied laughing.
Nicole finished her hot chocolate and smiled at the people around her. She went to say something the guy walked up right behind her and looked over her head at Danni who looked at him.
"Yes Josh this Nicole the woman that your dad took it gracefully upon himself to see if she can handle it." Danni said taking Nicole's cup and refilling it. "Be nice." She added.
Nicole turned around and held her hand out. Josh shook her head and nodded at him.
"Danni I want a beer." Josh said letting go of her hand.
"Yes sir captain!" Danni said doing a fake solute.
Sarah got up and smiled brightly as she jumped up onto the counter and hopped behind the counter and quickly grabbed the beer and took it's lid off and gave it to Josh who watched her.
"Ok I don't have a problem with that but I just wiped the counter off!" Danni said doing a fake pout.
"I'm sorry." Sarah said giving her puppy eyes.
Nicole smiled and laughed at her while Danni rolled her eyes and walked out from behind the bar and sat down.
"Alright I changed my mind you start today." Danni said throwing the rag at her.
Sarah nodded at her with a smile as Nicole yawned.
"Come on Nicole I'll take you to the apartment let you actually sleep in a bed before you get on a crab boat and I want to take you away before Dong shows up." Danni said while Nicole looked at her with a raised eye brow. "I'll explain it to you later." She added.
Nicole nodded at her as she grabbed her bags while Danni grabbed Sarah who looked at her.
"Don't worry I'll be back in a few but if things get to busy Blake help her." Danni said looking at her.
"Yes Ma'am." Blake replied taking a swig of his beer as the two women left.
Josh and Blake leaned back following the two out of them out of the room and up stairs.
"I saw her first!" Blake and Josh said at the same as Sarah raised a eye brow at them as she was drying some of the glasses.
"Ok one your married and two she doesn't know but I saw her first she is mine." Sarah said with a smile and a laugh. "Back off." She added.
