"So I have to admit, I kinda interrogated Jake about you" Bob told Abigail, they'd huddled away from the group in a booth "And what did he say?" She asked
"Not much actually" he said "You're younger then him, a fancy Lawyer. . .He also said and I quote directly 'She always thought she was more high and mighty then us, always strutting around with her law books' you know exactly like that" Bob said pitching his voice down
Abigail giggled slightly "Well I was the one who stayed at the end of the day, I only left when our ma convinced me to" she said
"What about you Floyd, what's your secrets" Abigail asked taking the cherry from her new Vodka and cherry coke, popping it into her mouth
"I don't have many I'm afraid, I'm a pretty boring. . .Open book, like war and peace"
"I hear plenty of people like that book"
"You ever read it?"
"Nah, too much for me, but I'm sure you'd keep me interested I mean you were in a bird strike after all"
Bob let out a chuckle "I'm afraid the Navy is the only interesting thing about me ma'am" he told her
"Well now I don't believe that Mr Floyd" She grinned "But I guess I'll just have to figure you out, like a puzzel" she said taking the cherry stem from her lips "I like puzzels"
She stood from the booth taking her drink with her, going over to where Rooster was playing the piano, an upbeat, piano version of Maria Carry's All I want for Christmas despite the protests of other patrons that it was still only November and to keep the Christmas songs to December
"You play Lil Seresin?" Fanboy asked "Nah, tried but couldn't get it right, drums though, I can hold a rhythm or two" Abigail said leaning her arms ontop of the piano
"Huh, Bob played drums in college" Phoenix said
Bob, who'd appeared by his pilot's side in a silent moment looked shocked "When did I tell you that?"
"Jesus H Christ, Robert!" Jake scolded when he'd came down from his 10 foot jump "Don't sneak up on people"
"When did I tell you I played drums?" Bob repeated ignoring Jake's huffs
"The one time I got you drunk and you told me about that girl you-"
Bob's hand went over Pheonix's mouth "And that's enough drinks for Nat, I'll be taking her home, good night everyone" Bob said practically dragging Phoenix out the bar by her arm despite Phoenix's protests of not being that drunk or how she wouldn't tell anyone anything else
"Part one solved" Abigail said quietly into her drink as she downed the rest of it as she replaced Bob between Coyote and Hangman
"How many is that?" Jake asked "2 single Vodka and Cherry cokes, between many, many normal Cherry cokes" Abigail told him as she nudged Rooster's shoulder from behind as he played an instrumental piano version of Merry Christmas Everyone
"Phoenix, Bob. . .They. . .You know?" She asked
"Bob and Phoenix? No way! We thought it for a while but they'd never sleep together" Rooster said
"You don't need to be sleeping with someone to date them" She argued
"Well their not dating either" Rooster told her before he grinned
"Why? You interested in a certain WSO?" He asked looking up at her from under his aviators, still playing
How does he do that?
Abigail shook her head both shaking away the useless question about the bird named Aviator's playing abilities
"No, No, No I'm not" she said frankly
"Phoenix? I mean we don't judge, hell I'm a fan of both and Phoenix is quite pretty"
"I'm not interested in either of them, I need to know these things, I'd rather not be blindsided by something like an in squad affair in a court room or investigation" she said
"So if any of you plan to shag each other, please warn me first" She said digging in her bag for her keys
"Might wanna check on Mav and Admiral Kazansky then" Fanboy laughed
"I plan on it"
"Can you drive?" Jake asked concerned
"Yes, I'm fine, you wanna breathalyse me? Ask me to walk in a straight line or recite my alphabet?" Abigail asked sarcastically
"I'm just worried" he said quietly "I survived 11 years without you, 6 years of which I could drink" she reminded him
"See you all on Monday" she said waving goodbye to the other aviators
