The club is packed a lot, but part of Elias’ job is being aware of his surroundings. He may not look like he’s paying much attention, always with people trailing next to him, talking to him, always a drink in his hand, but he takes note of the faces in the place, even more so of returning customers. So he knows this guys face, though his name not so much. “One of my bartenders had to step in, just being a good boss,” he explains, because well, he’s not always an asshole, just most of the time. “The night is indeed young, and in the devils playground there’s more than enough fun to be had,” he says, and there’s a proud smile n on his face. “we’ve got a live show coming up, if you’re staying, and if that’s not your thing,” he nods to the upper level “another dj upstairs, as always, though it’s a bit more fun, you know?”

Once the other male confirmed that he was indeed the boss, Elijah nodded. “Ah, the boss,” he stated, smirking a bit more as he took another look around. “You’re a good boss though. Mine would kick me in the ass for sleepin’ in late or just fuckin’ around,” he admitted with a chuckle before reaching over to his glass to take a sip of it. “How long have you been boss-man of this club?” He asked wondering before raising his eyebrows in interest to him mentioning the live show upstairs and he quickly nodded. “Hell yeah, a live show sounds like fun. Thanks for the information about it, I’ll be sure to check it out.” The bartender then extended his hand out towards him. “I’m Elijah by the way, it’s nice to meet you.”

“When does he ever fall asleep when I need him to, Eli? It’s like he can sense my need for quiet and instantly racks up his energy.” The woman smiled tiredly, pushing some of her blonde hair out of her face. “Just come hang out with him for a bit, maybe you can tire him out. Wait….really? Oh god you’re a god damn lifesaver you know that right? I will be literally fifteen minutes, it will be the fastest shower in the history of the world, I just need to get spit up out of my hair for the first time in god knows how long. Help yourself to anything in the kitchen.” Moving across the room to him she pressed a kiss to his cheek. “You’re the best.” Before darting away to the nearby bathroom before reappearing a little while later in more comfortable clothing with still damp hair, feeling a hell of a lot better. “Did I ever tell you I love you?” Ellie grinned. “I’m a new woman. How are my two best boys doing?” 

Elijah couldn’t help but laugh softly to Ellison’s rambling, he thought it was cute when she did that without meaning to. “Just go take a shower, I got him,” he said and before he knew it, her lips were on his cheek. While she had kissed him on the cheek many times, he held onto this moment though she was gone in a flash. Moving to the living room to be with Walker, he got down to his level and started to play with his toys with him. “I can’t believe how big you’re getting,” he said more to himself as he played with Walker, laughing and smiling as he did so. Once Ellison entered the room, he turned his head to look up at her and smirked a little bit. “Yes you have, but hey, I’m not goin’ to stop you from sayin’ it,” he teased, shooting her a grin before looking back at Walker. “We’re doing great. Walker was just showing me his new toys, especially the blocks,” he told her, putting two of the blocks together and gasping at Walker to get his attention before chuckling.

“Slytherin, no doubt about that.”

“Honestly! I wonder how much he thinks I make a year. And he must not have been packing too much income if he switched up and wanted me to be his sugar mama.” Tatum shook her head, taking a long sip of the drink in her hand before placing it down on the table. She cast a glance over to look at her shoes again, laughing. “They were honestly the first pair I bought after retiring from the army. My retirement shoes, in a sense.” Grinning, the doctor nodded, leaning back against the back of the booth. “Well, in that case, I’ll take a top shelf long island.” She teased, bringing her glass to her lips again.

“Yeah, I’ll apologize for him just because I know how stupid us men can be,” Elijah said with a soft laugh as he looked at his friend across the booth. “Well, they are nice retirement shoes,” he grinned. “Have I told you how badass you are for even being in the army in the first place?” He asked before waving the bartender over and ordering them both another round of drinks.

“I hope you aren’t meaning all women, Eli. Because we all know I’m not a bitch.” Fallon laughed, unable to keep a straight face at the end of her statement. “Yes, it’s exhausting, but I absolutely love it, despite having little time to relax. My manager literally has my schedule planned out four months ahead of time.” Grinning, the model raised her drink to her lips. “Well, you’re fucking impressive too, you know. Who else is gonna make me the perfectly dirty martini without me having to ask?”

“You’re the sweetest angel on earth, Fal,” Elijah teased with a playful wink before wiping down the bar top as he was currently still on the clock. “Four months ahead of time? Seems a bit much to me, but hey, as long as you’re happy, I’m happy,” he said with a soft chuckle before throwing the towel over his shoulder and leaning against the bar as he looked at his good friend in front of him. “Do you have any other bartender best friends? I don’t think so,” he teased with a soft laugh. “How has everything else been besides work?”

Being behind the bar isn’t his favorite place to be here. He’d much rather be seated in one of the booths, drink in hand admiring the clientele,  making deals and that sort of thing. But Manny is out dealing with business that while important, is not something big enough for Elias to deal with, and so he’s decided to step in here where he’s needed.  When a guy Elias has seen around once or twice before but hasn’t actually spoken to approaches, Elias offers a smile and a nod “well, they’re not getting paid as well as they do to give shitty service,” he says and there’s a smile behind it, a small laugh, so this guy knows he’s not an entire asshole. “Whiskey neat, got it,” he replies and he decides he looks nice enough and so he pours him two fingers of the best whiskey they have, setting it on a napkin in front of him “I mean I’d much rather be on the other side of this bar,” he admits and because he’s the boss, he pours himself a drink too, takes a long drink once he does. “How about you? Enjoying yourself tonight?”

The more Elijah looked at the man behind the more, the more he recognized him. He had come in this club a fair amount of times and while there were many people in the building, he had seen this specific man around almost every time. Maybe he was more than just a bartender. His words then confirmed that he definitely was more than just a bartender. He sounded like he owned the place. “Thanks again,” he said before chuckling to his next words and nodded, watching as he poured himself a drink as well. “You coverin’ for someone tonight?” He asked, raising his glass to his lips to take a sip of the whiskey that went smoothly down his throat. “Yeah, I’ve had a good time so far. The night is still young so there’s so much more fun to be had,” he said with a smirk before taking another sip and looking around.

Ellison had the morning from hell at work, switching out with the other receptionist at midday she’d rushed to daycare (late, as usual) to scoop up Walker before taking him home for his afternoon nap. That was almost six hours ago now and he was up again, wide awake, demanding her full attention playing blocks as the woman just tried to keep her eyes open. “Well done sweetie, it’s a blue one, can you say blue for me….blue…blue…” She kept repeating as she waved it in front of her face, letting out a noise of relief when there was a knock at the door. Thank god for Elijah, he was part of the reason she’d decided to move to LA of all places when everything went south at home, at least she’d be be near someone who knew her and knew her history. Just one person. Everyone else she kept up the pretence with, ignoring the shame of her family. “Thank you, thank you thank you, come in. He’s still wide awake, I think I let him nap too long this afternoon.” Ellie groaned, ushering the other in.

“He’s still awake?” Elijah questioned as he walked inside and quickly sliding off his shoes before setting the bottles of alcohol on Ellison’s kitchen counter. “What can I do to help?” He asked, looking at his good friend before taking a few steps around the corner to see Walker playing with his toy on the living room floor. “We can start drinking when he goes to bed, let me help,” he said, turning to look back at her. “How about I go play with him for a bit while you take a shower and relax?”

“Hmm?” Casey looked up when someone started speaking to her, the surprise turning to a small frown composed of her usual frown line between her eyebrows when she heard what he’d said. Shaking her head as she hit send on the e-mail she’d typed up. “I’m going back to other people, it’s not all for me, trust me.” Though she could have easily finished everything that was about to be handed to her in the branded pastry box. “You should though, trust me it’s a good order. Assuming you like pastry.” She muttered, rubbing her left eye tiredly.

The more Elijah looked at the woman in front of him, the more he saw how tired she was. She seemed exhausted. “I’m here to get coffee, but now hearing your order I’m gonna have to get a pastry now,” he said with a chuckle before extending his hand out to her. “Don’t think we’ve met before. My name is Elijah.”

“So this woman at a coffee shop this morning told me to get a ‘real job’ as if modeling isn’t work.” Fallon rolled her eyes, taking a long sip of the iced drink in her hand. “And this woman is a ‘business owner’ and by that I mean she tries to sell people sex toys on Facebook. Like, who is she to tell m what a real job is.”

@lahqstarters​

“You know women are complete bitches, right?” Elijah half-teased with a soft chuckle before shaking his head. “I honestly don’t know how you do it all, Fall. To me, modeling sounds exhausting only because you all always have a ton of shit going on,” he explained before smiling more genuinely now. “I think what you do is fucking impressive, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.”

“You’ll never believe this.” Tatum began, sliding into the booth across from the other, drink in hand. “I was at the bar grabbing a drink and this guy looked at me and was like ‘you have great shoes.’ So naturally, I was like, hey thanks! Then he asked me if I wanted a sugar daddy, apparently ignoring the fact that I have a wedding ring on. Apparently he wanted to buy foot pics off me or something. So I told him I’m a doctor and a wife and I don’t need anything like that.” Pausing, the blonde took a long sip from her drink. “Then he asked me if he could be my sugar baby while Chris is deployed. I honestly think I’m gonna need more than this one drink after that interaction.” 

@lahqstarters​

Elijah couldn’t help but laugh softly to Tatum’s confession about someone asking her to be his sugar baby. He was mid sip of his drink when she said those words and his quickly swallowed before laughing even more. “Your sugar baby?” He couldn’t help but take a look under the table to her heels and he smirked as he looked at her again. “I mean, you do have great shoes,” he teased before laughing some more and shaking his head. “I’ll buy us the next round.”

Saturday nights at LUX were busy, as was expected out of a club. There was a line out side, the dance floor was packed and the VIP rooms were nearly filled. The bartenders were doing fine on their own but Elias was back and forth between mingling and doing business as well as slinging drinks when he had a moment.  Right now he had a moment, since his time at the club was cut down currently, it was nice to be back in the swing of things for a bit, so he had a towel thrown over his shoulder and was currently pouring a drink for a girl who had written her number down on approximately three napkins that she sent his way but could not take no for an answer, when he saw the movement of someone taking a seat down at the bar out of the corner of his eye. Once he poured the drink he sat a clean napkin down and pushed it towards the girl before he switched to the next customer, “Well hello,” he greets, eyebrows going up, annoyingly charming smile on his face “what can I get you?”

@lahqstarters​

Elijah was always so thankful that he had Sunday’s off of work. That meant he could go out on Saturday nights downtown, specifically to LUX. While LUX made him feel like he was back in Seattle at the fancier clubs that his fellow rich buddies dragged him to, he was happy to not really be well known here in Los Angeles. It took a lot of pressure off of his shoulders and he was enjoying the life he was living. Walking inside of the club, he approached the bar and right as he sat down, the gentleman in front asked what he could get him to drink. “Always such good service here,” he complimented before looking at the different types of liquors they provided. “I’ll have a whiskey, neat. Thanks, man.” Taking a look around the crowded club, he smirked seeing many people dancing, some people trying not to fight in the corner, the people in the VIP section having way too much fun. This club was never boring. “Having a good night so far?” He asked the male who was making his drink.

It wasn’t often Casey got the chance to actually do something nice for her family, with work constantly at the forefront of her life she would give that her full focus, but it was Sunday morning after all. If she could pick up some pastries to stop Elias having to do it then she might as well. The twins had woken her up at five am anyway. “Uh, I’ll take two cinnamon, two chocolate, and two plain.” The brunette told the woman behind the counter with a brief tight smile, before dipping into her handbag to find her phone and instantly opening her e-mails. Being out didn’t mean she could take a break. 

Elijah was exhausted from his work shift last night at Hank’s and knowing that he was going to work again tonight, he needed the caffeine. Going through texts messages and emails on his phone, he couldn’t help but glance up to the lady in front of him hearing her order. “That’s quite an order for one person, but hey, I’m not judging,” he teased with a chuckle, assuming she wasn’t just ordering for only herself. “Honestly, I might do the same order just for myself,” he joked, trying to lighten up the mood as the woman seemed stressed.

@ellisonhaney​

Elijah knew that Ellie was having a rough day so he wanted to help her out as much as he could. Thankfully, it was his day off and knowing that she was home, he went to the store and bought wine for her and whiskey for himself before heading over to her place. The two had been family friends ever since he could remember and while they lived in two states before living in the same one, he always made sure to reach out to her to see if she was doin’ alright. They were good friends, nothing more. Approaching her door, he knocked on it and waited patiently and when she opened the door, he raised the bottles in his hands. “All I will say is, you’re welcome,” he teased with a smirk.
