date: after lily quits her job location: the boulevardier availability: closed to @officerrevans
There was no chance of mistaking the flash of red hair at the end of the bar. Her eyes fell on the woman, sitting alone with a drink in front of her. A sad sight, sure, but also a curious one. Hadn’t their last conversation revealed that Lily was a cop? Judging by the near breakdown the woman had after she discovered she had been drinking, Marlene was surprised to see her in the thick of it all.
A glance at the clock showed she had plenty of time before Mary took the stage; that meant she had plenty of time to approach Lily once more. After leaving her home in such a rush, Marlene did wonder if there was anything else to say. If there wasn’t, it did just seem like Lily needed the company. Taking her half empty glass, it didn’t take her long to reach the end of the bar and stand at the woman’s side. “Is this seat taken?” she asked, gesturing to the empty seat beside her. She wasn’t sure if the woman would want anything to do with her anymore, but there was no harm in trying, right?
