Okay so maybe the whole isolated living thing was finally starting to get to Natalia just a little bit. Because she really didn’t have a valid reason for being in the city tonight. She’d just got done with her show and it was pretty early showing. So the night was still pretty young, and she didn’t feel like resting or being alone. So here she was bar hopping in Pansaw till she found a crowd that she liked.
Natalia was on her fifth bar and the crowd was lively but not too rowdy. Plus her feet needed the rest it’d been a while since she did anything like this. Natalia approached the bar to order a drink. When a woman kicked a barstool towards her and told her to sit. Her first thought when she glanced at the woman was that. The stranger was drop dead gorgeous and the second was why not? The whole reason for coming out tonight was that. She wanted some company so without hesitation. Natalia took a seat “I hope you’re sharing what’s in the bottle. You look like you have good taste, and what’s the occasion?”
“That good taste, shockingly enough,” the chef mused with what could almost be mistaken for a chuckle. Without another word, Lupe poured a second glass of champagne for her companion, pushing it towards the blonde. “The ‘Best of Pansaw’ was published today, and it looks like I came up smelling like roses.” She took a pause to take another sip from her glass - her second for the evening. Typically she was a hard liquor kind of girl, which made the bubbly liquid seem to hit her strangely. “Thought I might celebrate for a night.”
