The In Between was more laid back than some of the flashier bars on the mainland. It reminded Bass of a beach bar he and Miles had found in Myrtle Beach one year, with a bit more flare. Bass told Miles not to wait up, and got an eye roll and pillow thrown at his head, and made his way downtown with a grin.
He hadn’t started the flirting with any real intent, but he liked Alex. He was funny, and handsome, and also military. Bass didn’t know that much of his story, but he got a small-town vibe from him, thought they might have more than the military in common.
If nothing else, maybe he’d make a friend. One with benefits would be nice - he wasn’t ready to settle down (he had a promise to keep), but the bar scene got old.
He saw Alex at the bar as soon as he stepped in, and flashed him a smile as he made his way over.
“You found it, so I see your navigation skills are adequate,” he said by way of greeting.
