Back to the bar

You walk through the crowded dancefloor back to the bar where Alice is working hard again. You quickly step in to help her. She gives you a quick smile.

'I took care of the whole John situation,' you tell her, inbetween taking orders from drunk people. 'He's not going home with anyone tonight.'

'Great!' she says and looks at you as if she could kiss you right there. 'I was worried there for a second.'

'Yeah, well,' you answer jokingly. 'Why the hell would you make that bet? You're lucky you have me.'

'Yeah, it was stupid,' she says. 'I just love to humiliate the guy.'

'I can understand that,' you laugh. 'Just don't do it again. You're lucky this time.'

'What did you do, anyway?' she says, a little suspicious now.

At that moment, you see Frank and Daphne walking back into the building, and towards the back. They're presumably going to the kitchen to have sex, knowing Daphne.

You point at them, and when Alice sees them, she looks back at you. Shocked. She doesn't know Frank has a huge crush on Daphne.

'How did you do that?' she asks.

'My power of persuasion,' you answer, a smug smile on your face.

'Oh, right,' she says sarcastically. 'Because you persuade sooo many girls to sleep with you.'

'I don't use it for that!' you say, a little hurt at her comments. 'Great power brings great responsibility.'

'I would say that too, if I were you,' she says, jokingly.

'I could persuade you now if you wanted,' you answer. 'But I won't, because I'm not a monster.'

'Well, I wouldn't mind,' she says, now a little flirty. You are a bit thrown by this comment, but then somebody comes walking out from the back. A shocked look on her face.
