Becky
Now, Becky. We became drinking buddies for a bit. Then last friday we went out, just us pair, and she bumped into a guy she fancies, out with his mates. We all hang out for a bit, and I end up getting dragged along to Pink, a gay bar which is actually quite good after about 1am, but is absolutely pants at 10pm, which is when I was unanimously outvoted. The guy Bex fancies shows no interest in her whatsoever, and is busy talking to his mates. Bex pulls a random bloke, who happens to work at the same place Tracy does. He eyeballs me, and after a while, his mate tries to kick off. I calm things down, but the bouncers ask me to leave, because "These guys are regulars." I was a regular too until now. Now, I refuse to go.So I leave. Becky lives miles away and has no money to get home - she was supposed to be staying at mine that night. I loiter around outside for a bit while I text her to find out what she's doing. Meantime, one of 'regular' guys mates gets chucked out for being too pissed and causing trouble - strangely, the pissed up one who started trouble with me. Needless to say, he sees me as the cause of his downfall, and tries to have a go.
Becky isn't texting back, and by this time the bouncers are getting a little annoyed at this guy kicking off on me outside their club, and are asking us both to move on. I explain my predicament, and explain that 1) this is the regular who was kicking off on me before they asked me to leave, so maybe it wasn't so intelligent throwing him out after the one who was clearly not interested in fighting, and 2) his kicking off wasn't annoying me in the slightest, and I wasn't going anywhere until I was sure of Bex's plans for getting home. They went in to check on her.
Meantime, a few more of regular boys mates came out, and things start getting a bit verbal. I stand my ground, point out that I already know where at least one of them works, and that the CCTV will just see me defending myself against 4 assailants. They keep giving it verbal, but it doesn't escalate beyond that.
The bouncer comes back, and tells me that Bex isn't leaving, and she'll make her own way home. She's only 18, has no money, and lives too far away to walk, but fine - if that's how she wants to do it after dragging me round after some lad who isn't interested in her, that's her business, so I leave her to it. Regular boys have picked a fight with some other random people by now, and police are on scene dealing with them, so I get to leave without a fuss.
