Reed (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=293586.msg14405426#msg14405426)<br/><strong>Time:</strong>20:30, Sunday, June 1st<br/><strong>Where:</strong>The Lanai<br/><strong>Status:</strong>Working<br/><strong>Content Rating:</strong>Light<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Mick, Sophia, Chelsea<br/><hr/><br/>Her eyes remained on the look out, the constant vigilance needed for a job such as hers.  A job that never seemed to end, full of being on guard and alert, tense and focused.  But that didn't mean she did not feel the pull to simply try and relax, to have a little fun in the party that was all around her.<br/><br/>And so, when she saw the glass pushed towards her direction, heard her name being called, C.J. tried her best to resist allowing a smile to cross her lips.  “You're a lifesaver, you know, right?.” She said, adverting her lingering gaze from Chelsea's form in the appealing jumpsuit to the drink offered to her.<br/><br/>No sooner had she brought the glass to her lips when she heard the sound of Mick's voice in her ear, crackling over the static of her earpiece beneath the sound of the music around her.  Inwardly she groaned, feeling that familiar pull of the job as her lips touched the refreshing coldness.<br/><br/>Her head turned, glancing over the sea of heads and hands towards where Mick had mentioned, eyeing the group of young men.  Loud.  Boisterous.  Oozing the eye-rolling machismo of their group.  Yet some of them weren't entirely unappealing, she mused.  Right.  She was still on the job.<br/><br/>“Keeping an eye on them.” She said into the small piece in her collar.  “Thanks for the heads up.”<br/><br/>Sophia spoke up from behind the bar as C.J. brought the cup back to her lips, and for a moment she paused as the offer was laid out before her.  You're working, she told herself.  You can't be doing shots, she told herself.  Remember the last time you were a smidge stupid with taking shots, she asked herself.<br/><br/>“You're trying to get me fired, I see.” She remarked to Sophia as she turned her head back to the party that was going around them.  A long glance, taking in the sights, the people, and more importantly, her boss.<br/><br/>“Okay.” She said, turning back to the girls.  “Tequila, before Raj sees I'm over here doing shots.”
