We Found Love

Entering in behind Seamus, Dean barely glanced at the decor of the club-bar-restaurant-place – whatever The Hog's Head was. It was dark, and located in an old building. Dean won't even be here if it wasn't for Seamus, who came to moon over his girlfriend. Sophie's band was preforming here tonight, and Seamus being the good and supportive boyfriend agreed to come, dragging his single friend along with the promise of a beer.

Taking a seat at a small table a few feet from the stage, Dean glanced around. His eyes settled on the bar. He didn't recognized the name of anything behind the bartender – a beautiful young woman with dark hair and dark eyes, dressed in a shirt that said I don't wanna taco about it. The shirt made Dean chuckle.

"They start in thirty," Seamus announced as he joined Dean at the table.

Dean nodded, absentmindedly. He was here with Seamus until Sophie was done preforming then he would be free to leave. If he lingered again, he would be forced to time with her bandmates. That was an experience he didn't want to repeat ever.

"You order the first round," Seamus decided, staring longingly at the stage.

Following his friend's gaze, Dean resisted the urge to roll his eyes. Seamus was staring at Sophie's hot pink bass guitar. "Any requests?" he asked, being a good friend.

Seamus hummed as he prompted his chin onto his hand, still staring at the bass guitar.

"Tequila it is," Dean stated as he stood up. He hovered at the table for a moment.

"Sure, mate, that sounds great," Seamus said, barely paying attention to his best mate.

Walking away, Dean shook his head. Seamus hated tequila, preferring a good old Scottish whiskey. In fact, Seamus drank the horrible American whiskey over tequila.

"What do you want?" the bartender asked, pouring a glass of white wine.

"Double tequila, and a lime margarita," he requested.

The bartender's dark eyes landed on him as she raised an eyebrow.

Dean grinned back. "My mate said it sounded great." He stole a glance at Seamus, who was still staring at the bass guitar.

"Who know the band?" the bartender asked, preparing the margarita.

"His girlfriend's the bassist," he answered, keeping it simple.

"They always that," she trailed off, shaking her head.

"Bad?" Dean finished. "Yes."

Stopping her work, the bartender stared at Dean for a second. "Demelza," she stated as she returned to her work.

"Dean," he responded as he handed over Seamus' credit card.
