It's 11 pm, in a nightclub. Poppy shows up with bags under her eyes. After her boyfriend died, she has not slept in days. "I'm sorry", a tall man with short curly swept-back, brunette hair came up to her. "Are you interested in having a drink with me?". Poppy was desperate.
"Sure," she said. As they arrived at the bar table, The man found a rose on the floor, he picks it up and gives it to Poppy. "Aww thank you........" "Ace.....my name's Ace". "Thank you, Ace." Said Poppy, she let out a small grin. A bartender finally shows up. "I'll take a Champagne," said Ace. He looks at Poppy, "One for the lady". "The lady's name is Poppy," said Poppy.
"Poppy......". That name sounded familiar. "Two champagnes coming right up," said the bartender.
Ace reaches down to his pocket and takes out a handful of cash. "Keep the change," he said.
As they begin talking, the bartender brings their drinks. Ace takes drinks the champagne "Listen, Poppy, I don't normally say this......but I love you". He was drunk. "I-I love you too," Poppy said, in shock.
Ace reached in for a kiss. Poppy leaned back. "I'm sorry...I'm not ready yet." Poppy leaves the bar. "Great I fucked up," said Ace. "You can't give up just yet," said the bartender. "I have to, she'd hate me after she found out that I killed her boyfriend. I mean to be locked up in jail right now."
