Far too many whiskey drinks, too many for Kiernan to count and he was on buzz higher than anything he had ever experienced before. He wasn't sure why he was so happy, the only time he was happy was when he was fighting someone. Or better yet in the company of a naked woman, or two, three maybe even four. His brothers were happy and enjoying the evening, though some knew how the evening was going to pan out. No one in their straight mind could honestly believe that tonight wouldn't have any sort of fight. Kiernan was just waiting for it. Maybe it would be Danny who sets it off or would it be the mad man himself?
Out of the corner of his eye, she was there. Sitting like a lone duck, Kiernan warned her not to be here and what does she go and do, ignore him. That was why he wasn't nice to anyone. No one. His family, always said that to him be nice or you won't get anything. Well he didn't become a tough shit from saying please and thank you. It was more along the lines of beating the fuck out of anyone man or woman to get what he wanted. So? he was going to get what he wanted.
"So baby girl, anyone begged for ya' service tonight? Or are ya' just holdin' out for fuckin' Prince bloody Charmin'?"
Oh he loved winding Abigail up, just like a ticking time watch. Kiernan could pull his pocket watch out and time exactly the right moment when her face would explode with raw emotion. It always made him laugh, so young and naive. He could picture all the fun he have with her.
