"So what's the plan?" asked Scarlet as she walked down the stairs.

"To get as far away from Boston as possible," said Dolly. "And I would suggest doing it soon."

"How soon?" asked Scarlet walking behind the bar.

"Within the next few days, a week at the most," said Duffy.

Connor and Murphy nodded. Connor watched Scarlet out of the corner of his eye. She poured a tumbler of scotch and sat down at the bar with her back to everyone. Murphy kicked his brother and Connor turned his attention back to the conversation. Scarlet had tuned everyone out. She didn't want to think about them leaving so soon. If they left, nothing said she would be able to still talk to Connor. She finished her drink and stood up. She walked back around the bar and poured more into the glass. She looked up to see Connor watching her. She gave him a weak smile and looked away.

"Right. Well I think we all need to get some sleep," said Eunice. "We can think about this in the morning."

Everyone nodded their heads and stood up from the table. Connor, Murphy and Romeo walked over to the bar. Scarlet was leaning on the back counter sipping her scotch. She grabbed three more glasses and set them on the bar. She grabbed a few different liquors and set them on the bar as well.

"Help yourself," she said.

Romeo nodded and took the tequila and poured a shot. Murphy grabbed the Irish and poured a shot for him and his brother. He slid the shot glass over to Connor and held it up.

"To freedom," he said.

"Freedom," said Romeo.

Connor nodded his head and downed the shot. Scarlet topped off her glass as she watched everyone. Doc had long since gone home. Eunice and Smecker were staying somewhere close by, but wouldn't tell anyone where. Duffy and Dolly would go home to their families and the she would go home to an empty house. She sighed as she set her glass down. She grabbed her purse and walked around the counter.

"Where are you going?" asked Smecker.

"Home," she said.

"You can't," he said. "You were the last one to have visible contact with Connor. The police are going to come looking for you. You're gonna have to stay here."

"Great," she mumbled under her breath. She dropped her bag on the counter and grabbed her glass and finished it off. She grabbed the scotch and filled the glass completely and walked over to the pool table. She started to rack the balls when Murphy walked over.

"I'll play you for one of the mattresses," he said setting his beer down.

Scarlet nodded her head as she grabbed a pool stick. She chalked the tip and walked around the table.

"I promise I'll go easy on ya," he said smiling.

Scarlet smiled at Murphy as she lined up the cue ball. She got ready to make her shot and hit the ball. The balls went in every direction and she sunk four of them, three of them being solids. Scarlet walked around the table and took another shot. This time she sunk two more before she scratched. She frowned as she walked over to her glass.

"Yeah, go easy on me. I'm not very good at this," she said smiling as she sipped her drink.
Connor laughed as he walked over to the table. Scarlet smiled at him before she turned her attention back to the game. It wasn't long before it was her turn again. Murphy had managed to sink two balls. Scarlet set her drink down and lined up her shot. She sunk one ball. She walked around the table as she tried to gauge her next shot. She leaned over and hit the ball. All three of them watched as the ball bounced around the table before dropping into one of the holes. Scarlet smiled as she got ready to sink the eight ball.

"Looks like I'm gonna get the mattress tonight," she said winking at Murphy. "Eight ball corner pocket."

Murphy smiled at her as she linked up the shot. Scarlet pulled the pool stick back and hit the ball. The cue ball rolled across the table and tapped the eight ball. The eight ball rolled across the table and dropped into the hole. Connor laughed as Scarlet stood up. Murphy frowned and finished off his beer.

"What the hell!" said Murphy.

"I work at a bar," said Scarlet. "I do this during my down time. I should be good."

Murphy shook his head. "I guess you get the mattress."

"Best two out of three?" she said smirking. "I promise I'll go easy on you."

"Oh, I bet," said Murphy chuckling.

*Three hours and many drinks later*

"What's the score?" slurred Scarlet.

"Um…I'm winning?" chuckled Murphy.

"I don't think so," said Scarlet. "I am sooo kicking your ass," she said slowly walking over to him.

Scarlet almost lost her balance as she walked across the floor. Connor set his beer down and walked over to her. He grabbed her arm to steady her.

"Come on, love. Game is over," he said.

"But, I have to kick his ass," said Scarlet.

"I think you've done that already," said Connor. "Come on. Bed."

Scarlet frowned as Connor led her towards the stairs. "I don't wanna go to bed."

Connor shook his head as he opened the door. Scarlet collapsed on the mattress next to the heater. She pulled her shoes off and stood up again.

"See. All better," she said walking across the floor.

"Right, touch yer finger to yer nose and life yer right foot," said Connor.

Granted he was probably as drunk as she was, but he had a high tolerance for alcohol. Scarlet had her finger on her nose and was going to light her foot when she lost her balance. Connor reached forward to catch her when he lost his balance as well. They both fell on the mattress. Connor got his arms out in front of him fast enough to catch himself. Scarlet was lying on the mattress looking up at him. Connor was fixing to move off the mattress when she reached up and pulled him into a drunken passionate kiss. Connor pulled back and looked at her.

"I don't think…" he started.

Scarlet leaned up and kissed him. She grabbed the hem of his shirt and pulled it up. Connor rolled over as she pulled it over his head. He grabbed her shirt and pulled it over her head as well. He rolled them back over and kissed down her neck to her chest. He grabbed one of her legs and hooked it on his hip and leaned forward pushing his manhood into her crotch. Scarlet moaned as she kissed him. Her hands moved from his arms to his jeans. She pulled on his belt and undid it. Connor reached between then and undid her jeans. He leaned back far enough to pull them off of her. He leaned forward and kissed her again. He reached behind Scarlet and unlatched her bra.

Scarlet's first instinct was to cover herself up. Connor leaned forward and nudged her arms out of the way. Before Scarlet could say or do anything else he took on of her nipples in his mouth.

"Oh…god," she moaned.

Connor smiled as he nipped at her. Scarlet threaded her fingers through his hair. Connor pushed his hips into hers again. She could really feel his manhood.

"Con...Connor…you've got too much clothing on," said Scarlet.

Connor leaned back and finished undoing his jeans and kicked them off. Scarlet sat up long enough to slid her panties off. Connor took her cue and slid his boxers off as well. Connor just stared. Scarlet we getting a little self-conscious with him staring at her. She was starting to doubt this, even in her inebriated state. Connor practically launched himself at her. He kissed her again as he massaged her breast. Scarlet was biting her lip to keep herself from moaning.

"Let it out," whispered Connor. "I wanna hear you."

Connor's hand left her breast and traveled down her torso to the apex between her legs. He ran his thumb across her bud causing her to moan louder. He slid one of his fingers across her nether lips.

"Christ…" he moaned out. "Yer already wet."

Scarlet flushed at his statement. He smiled down at her and kissed her again. He ran his finger over her lips a few more times before she lined himself up. Scarlet rolled her hips to show her impatience with him. Connor chuckled as he slid into her. Scarlet cried out half in pleasure and half in pain. Connor stopped and looked down at her.

"Wha? What is it?" he asked.

"N-nothing," she said. "Just give me a minute. Not quite used to you."

Connor smirked at her statement. Just what he needed a bigger ego. After another minute Scarlet nodded and Connor started to move. She let out small gasps when he moved back in. She hooked her leg over his hip again, causing him to groan in pleasure. She leaned up and kissed him. The more she kissed him, threaded her fingers through his hair or across his back the faster he would go.

"Oh…god…oh god…yes…Con-Connor…I think I'm…I'm gonna…" gasped out Scarlet.

Her inner walls clamped down around him as she reached her climax ultimately sending him over the edge. Connor called out Scarlet's name as he climaxed. He pumped into her a few more times before he rolled off of her. They laid there on the mattress trying to catch their breath. Scarlet blinked a couple of times before she closed her eyes and fell asleep. Connor looked over at her and smiled. He kissed her forehead and pulled the blanket over them and fell asleep.
