"Shot of tequila," she said to the bartender. He nodded, poured it and slid the glass across the counter, looking pointedly at Jared with a "even the chick can out drink you" expression on his face. She couldn't help the snicker, knowing exactly the pussy ass drinks that Travis was downing. "It takes a real man to drink water in a bar," she teased after tossing back her shot. The booze hit her empty stomach right as she realized she hadn't eaten all day. Well. That was a good combination.
Jared just glared at her and she grinned, patting his thigh as she ordered another shot. If she couldn't chase away her demons, she could at least drink them into nothingness.
"You guys were good tonight," she said. "You look wiped, but you were good tonight."

"Sleep walking? Jared, you were bouncing all over the place."
"Because Travis doesn't fucking stay still. Fuck, I feel like my fucking feet are going to fall off," Jared grumbled. They did. The heels of his feet and his toes ached and he needed to take his Chuck Taylors off, but something told him the rest of the bar wouldn't have appreciated stinker guitarist feet.
Jared downed the bottle of water in about thirty seconds flat, then quickly gulped down both shots, heavily setting the glasses back down on the bar. So, so tired. The bus was empty. He didn't want to go back alone.
"I think we've got some Patron back in the bus," Jared offered. "I don't know if you were going to stick around and hang with Micah and JJ, but--" It was really more of a plea than an offer.
