Nate giggled slightly. She was wrong, but why would he tell her thaaat. He smiled at her. "Does he catch your eye though? I think I've seen fish with more teeth." He teased, stealing another glance at the man who was now at the bar. Ordering something.

Tempe giggled at him, shaking her head. "No, not quite. He's not really my type. I'm more of a 'I have standards' kind of person but its nice to be flattered." She shrugged, turning back to Nate and offering him a smile.

Nate grinned. "I too would be flattered." He snickered. The bartender took the money as he slid Nate his Shirley temple. Nate stared at it for a moment and then he tried it. Sheepishly taking another sip cuz it wasn't that bad. The catcaller walked over, sliding a drink of somekind infront of Tempe.

"Shut up." Tempe said playfully, folding her arms and leaning on the bar slightly, looking around in a distinctly happy way. She smiled at Nate as he took a sip of his drink. "See, it's not so bad." She teased, glancing over as a drink got slid in front of her. She blinked and brought her gaze up to the large man hovering nearby. "Oh. Thank you." She said, giving the drink a halfhearted look and reaching for it tentatively.

Nate glared at her. "You shut up." He smiled, narrowing his eyes as the man came closer. He got a less expressive look on his face as the drink was placed in front of her. And there went his brain, out the window. He reached for the drink and coiled it back to himself instead. "For me? Aww thats so sweet." He took a sip and batted his eyelashes at the big dude. He put the drink down and made a face. "Holy crap, he wanted to give you that?" He coughed. The large man clenched his fist, getting a look on his face. CC "Hey buddy. That was for the lady." His voice was terse, Nate spun around on the stool and faced him with a smile.

Tempe blinked as Nate grabbed the drink and slid it across the counter and into his grasp. She looked up at him and then the other man, smiling at Nate's reaction and turning back to him at the cough. She raised her eyebrows and tilted her head with a smile. "It's the thought that counts, right?" She suggested, glancing at the other man and doing a double take at the look on his face. "No, it's fine. I'd have given it to him anyway, I don't drink." She shrugged dismissively, still offering a somewhat polite smile.

"Bullshit." Nate rasped at her suggestion. He wanted to add to his complaint because it was burning but he was already looking at the man and it was a little too late for take-backsies. The big man came closer and put a hand on her shoulder. Which was like the size of her shoulder and then some. CC "sorry you have to see this miss." He moved around her and grabbed Nate by his jacket, with an intense, withering glare. Nate was feeling it like mest cleavers. "Remember me." He looked over at Tempe, and then back at the big guy. Grinning. Kicking him in the chest. He fell back into a dude who was thrown into the guy infront of him. And then chaos and fists ensued.

I'm curious as to what CC means)) Tempe went shock still as a hand got rested don her shoulders, giving the tall man a disgusted look, jerking her shoulder out of his grasp and blinking as Nate got hauled up like a puppy. "Nate, n-" She couldn't quite get the words out as boots hit flesh and chaos ensued. She couldn't have looked any more exasperated. She sort of paused and watched for a few moments, hauling herself up so she could crouch on her barstool, out of the fray.

Cat Caller)) Nate was into the chaos having way more fun than he should've. But it was Nate so there could never be too much fun. In no time he was up on the big guy's back in the middle of the crowd of punched being thrown. And then he thrown, landing on a table. It wasn't very long before his lip was bleeding. But that wasn't going to be the end of it, cause someone had the bright idea to get a beer bottle. Half the time you couldn't see Nate.

Ouhhhh that is not what I expected but also makes way more sense than what I was thinkin)) "Fuckin-" Tempe let out a slight groan and hopped onto the bar counter, looking into the sea of fists blindly for Nate. "NATE!" She yelled, but it was barely heard over the entire bar being lost in a fight. She got glimpses of him here or there, but not often enough to follow him.
