Zodiac Girls: Scorpio, Jackie
It was around midnight. The Owl's Nest is a great bar. I loved coming here, it was on the third story of a three story building. You almost had to know it was here in order to find this place. It sits on top of a Hooters, a McDonalds, and a funky little bar/restaurant called Belloe's. They have these really comfortable couches instead of tables. I come here every Friday night, they don't really have anything special and yet the entire place is special. They have a good kitchen, and Frank the bartender knows how I like my drinks.
Several of us girls were about to leave when Fred walked in. Fred is Amy's ex-boyfriend. He spotted Amy and went straight for her. Amy is a real cuttie, she stands about five feet tall and has very elfish features. Fred is around my height. He's six feet tall. But he out weighs me by a lot. He's about 220 pounds to my little 165 ponds. Fred's mouth had started before he got to her.
"Hey bitch what you doin here." Fred hissed. Fred had closed to within a foot of Amy so she would feel intimidated. And sure enough it worked she looked away and down and took a step back.
"Uh, hi Fred." She stammered
"Don't HI me bitch I asked you a question." Fred bellowed
I'd had enough, you don't mess with my friends. As Amy looked down and took another step back I interposed myself between them.
"Hey Fred, I'd ask you how it was hanging but Amy tells us it's to small to hang."
Fred looked like he'd been struck. "Hey Jackie, are you dating Amy now?"
"In your dreams meatball, hey I hear your so bad at oral that you couldn't get a virgin off, although a virgin would have better taste." I'd obviously confused him here. He kind of cocked his head and looked at me. He could tell by the snickers among the girls that I'd just said something nasty.
"You're a bitch Jackie." Was the best he could come up with.
I decided to try the straight on approach with him. "Look Fred we don't want you here, you're annoying all of us please leave."
Fred clouded up like he was going to explode. "Listen up bitch!" He thundered. "I'll leave when I'm damn good and ready."
"You're ready." Said a deep male voice."
Fred and I both turned to look at the interruption. I was really surprised to see that this guy was bigger than Fred. He was dressed in black and had an air of confidence about him.
"What do you mean I'm ready." Fred made this sound like a threat
"You are creating a disturbance sir. The ladies were fine until you got here and now you've managed to ruin the mood in the entire bar. Now kindly leave or I will be forced to throw you out." The stranger spoke in a soft voice but his words really carried.
Fred laughed. "You think your man enough?"
The stranger smiled and replied "You'd better hope I am, because if I fail the bartender will call the police."
For the first time Fred looked uncertain. The police station was roughly three hundred feet down the road. So they had a pretty good response time.
