Right females were horrible tippers at the bar.  However they would bring their guys she was sure and push them to the back as they oogled the band.<br/><br/>Elliott knew it was going to be a busy, long night, Pete's would be packed.  Because of that she had all of her stuff sitting inside the foyer of her apartment ready to go in the morning.<br/><br/>The band was playing when she walked in, Elliott glanced toward the stage on her way to stash her bag.<strong>"Hey Lizzie." </strong>She waved to one of the other waitresses.<br/><br/>"Hiya El, there is a shirt in your locker, Pete says we have to wear them."  The blonde pointed to the tank she had on with Sole Regrets logo on it.<br/><br/><strong>"Thanks,"</strong>Elliott stashed her bag pulling out the tank top after she entered the backroom off the kitchen.  Grasping the hem of her Pete's tee she pulled it off to pull the SR tank on before anyone came in.  It was tighter than she preferred but oh well.<br/><br/>Slipping back out into the bar Elliott set about her pre-shift duties, her eyes went to the stage.  She hadn't had a chance to talk to Cord and there wouldn't be one tonight either she was sure.  Elli smiled at the surprise she would be to him.<br/><br/>Even though her and Cord didn't talk much anymore Elliott had kept up with Sole Regret.  She had a past with Cord and it was just that, a past.  His sister, Shana and her had been friends in high school and she had fell for the older brother,  Now they were just friends and she was happy he had found someone to make him happy.  They were better friends than anything more it turned out.<br/><br/>Elliott filled a bucket with ice and fresh brews taking them over to set on the table that the bands new manager was sitting at.<strong> "Here's a round for when they finish up rehearsing."</strong>The mountain of muscles that stood guarding the table made her shiver.  That was one big piece of man meat.  Elliott giggled though wondering if he was making up for smaller things with body mass, before she turned away.  Again her eyes fell on the stage where the band was warming up and for only a moment she wondered where Embers was.<br/><br/><br/><br/><br/><br/>
