Chapter 1: One Too Many
Last call!
Russ Warner shut off the music in the bar as he projected his voice across the room. He wanted to make sure he had everyone’s attention, so he repeated himself over the hum of the collective conversation. Last call, everybody. If she won’t go home with you tonight, you blew it.. Come back tomorrow night and try again. Last call
Russ heard a few drunken chuckles as people grabbed their coats and filed out into the street. Some of the regulars waved their good-byes as they passed him, stumbling out into the cool fall night with the exaggerated affection that comes from a long drinking session with coworkers. He wondered how many of them would wake up in the morning next to a naked office mate. Russ shook his head, thinking about his last day at the hedge fund. It started with a quick drink at happy hour, descended into embarrassed groping for clothes in the morning, and ended with a trip to the HR office, a sexual harassment lawsuit and a pitiful severance package. He knocked back another shot to celebrate the fact that he didn’t have to deal with that nonsense anymore.
Hey, boss. Let me get another one too. Don’t hog it all for yourself.
Russ looked up to see Alex leering at him. Now that the overhead lights were on, Russ saw that the man’s tight black curls looked extra greasy, his tan looked extra orange, and his smirk looked extra slimy. The Hermes tie was loosened just enough and the sleeves of his Thomas Pink shirt were rolled up to a precise point on his forearm. He tried so hard to look relaxed. Russ decided the man practiced the look when he was alone, comparing himself to a picture in GQ to make sure he got it right.
He stood there, waving his platinum credit card around like a magic wand capable of conjuring up anything he wanted. Russ knew Alex was a douchebag the first time he came to the bar several months ago. The impression became stronger with repeated exposure. Tonight the effect was particularly potent. It must have shown on Russ’s face, because Alex shrugged his shoulders and gaped at him.
What the fuck is the problem, son?
I don’t have a problem.
Russ
