Amy's POV
1month later
"Hey b-baby girl get m-me a...a em... G-get me uh...one more a them... them vod-vodka whiskey thingy" Winston a regular at this bar slurred drunkenly.
"Winston you're drunk off your ass. It's time to cut you off now" I said to him. "I'm gonna call you a cab, its time to go home".
"No baby girl, that's the vely...very last place wannabe... Just need a drink, please just o-one more and I go...I'll be out of you-r hair" he slurred once again.
"No, I think you've had enough drink for tonight l I said as I pulled out my phone from my shorts pocket. "I'm calling you a taxi"
After calling a cab for Winston I turned to him. Telling him not to move until it gets here. He sat there rambling about how I wasn't his baby girl anymore if I didn't give him another drink. I couldn't help but chuckle at his antics until the cab came. There was no way I was giving an already drunk man more alcohol.
After Katie and I switched places and I went to serve a few more customers for about half an hour, we switched roles again as I took over as the bar tender and she the waitress once again.
A guy came up to the counter and sat on the stool, I was drying a glass at the time when he spoke up.
"Can I have a beer please"the guy said to me.
"Sorry about that" I said as I put down the glass and towel and turn to him. "Sure thing. Hot or cold?"
"Cold" he responded.
"Coming right up" I said as I reached for the beer and place it on the counter in front of him and got the opener. "Here you go"

"Thanks" the guy replied pushing a wad of cash towards me.
"Its just $3 this is a bit too much" I said pushing back the rest to him.
"Its a tip, keep it" the guy smile at me.
"Uh I don't know, that's a bit too much to take" I said to him.
"That's nonsense, a tip can never be too much" he smiled at me. "I'm not taking it back so you better keep it"
"You're feeling quite cashy tonight huh?" I joked.
"Yeah as always" he chuckled. "I'm always feeling cashy"
"Oh yeah?" I laughed. "Well I'm sorry, my bad assuming, you're only feeling that way tonight".
"I love your laugh" the guy said to me. "It's refreshing"
"Uh thanks" I said looking down with a smile suddenly feeling shy from the look he was giving me.
"Are you getting shy with me uh...Amy?"he said looking at the name tag on my blouse. "Amy? That's your name"
"Yeah" I nodded.
"Its nice. Amy... I like it" he smiled.
"Uh thank you" I chuckled shyly.
"Hey you're not over here sweet talking my friend now are you?" Katie said as she came back from delivering her drinks.
"Kate my number one girl" the guy chuckled as he turned sideways to face her. "Don't tell me you're jealous?"
"No I'm not jealous Matt. I just don't want you to play my bestie" Katie said placing the tray on the bar counter and placing a hand on her waist.
"You two know each other?" I asked looking between them.
"Yeah this is Matthew, he's a good friend of mine" Katie said. "Don't let him sweet talk you".
"So you're a player huh?" I said to Mathew.
"What no? Katie look what you did, I was trying to work my way into her heart to ask her if she wants to go out with me and now you just ruined my chance" Matthew said pouting a bit. "She thinks I'm a player now. Tell her I'm not"

"Is he?" I asked Katie.
"He's a sweet talker..." Katie started to say before Matthew held up a brown envelope.
"Tell her the truth about me or you don't get this" Matthew said with a mischievous smirk.
"You're blackmailing me to score a point with my friend?" Katie said shocked before grabbing at the envelope. "Gimme that..."
"Ah, ah. You're not getting this until you tell Amy what a great guy I am" Matthew said as he pulled back his hand with the envelope.
"You're an ass" Katie frowned.
"Okay, suit yourself" Matthew chuckled as he attempt to put it back in his pocket.
"Alright alright fine" Katie said quickly turning to me. "I know him, he's a good guy. Quite a sweet talker I won't deny that but differently he's a good guy overall. You should definitely go out with him"
"Why thank you Kate, for that lovely compliment" Matthew chuckled.
"Now give me that" Katie said grabbing at the envelope once again.
"No not yet, wait a minute" Matthew pulled back the envelope before looking at me. "I have to know she's convinced".
"What? I'll kill you Matt" Katie raise a hand to punch him.
"That would make it even worst" he chuckled causing her to stop. "So Amy, do you believe her? That I'm a good guy?"
"I don't know. You're being quite a bad boy right now" I replied.
"Katie, its your fault you know" Matthew said to her. "Now she's not going to go out with me. That's it, I'll just keep this".
"No! Matt don't play with me that way" Katie protest before turning to me pleadingly. "Amy please, could you just tell him you'll give him a chance so that he can give me my things and go".
Matthew turned to me smiling hopefully.
"Will you go out for coffee with me?"
I was frozen not knowing what to reply saying. Was he asking me out on a date? I never been out on a date or even with a guy without being forced to because of working with Alfredo. I wasn't sure what to say or what to expect.
"Uh...I don't... I don't know..."
"Really Amy, he's a decent guy" Katie smiles at me. "You can give him a chance".
"See? I'm a great guy. She finally admit it. So?" Matthew smiled at me.
I wasn't sure what to say, I'm new to this whole guy asking me out thing. And I was tempted to say yes as well as no at the same time but Katie smiling at me encouragingly I decided to give him a chance, see what this whole date thing is like.
"Uhm... Alright. When are we doing this?" I asked with a smile.

Outer Sect Disciple
Gongsun Xianyuan, eleven years old, was a genius... or he should have been. Unfortunately when the Cultivator of the Wudang sect came to the village he found out that he had a rare condition that prevented him to cultivate in the arts of the sect. He didn't give up right away but in the end he had to resign himself to the truth. At first he despaired but he soon choose to let his dreams go and begin a new life. This is the tale of an untalented cultivator who had given up in his dreams of glory to live a normal life. How will his future unfold? ------------------------- My native language is neither English nor Chinese, I am writing a Xianxia novel because I like the genre. I have tried to maintain the chinese names and the form of address but I used the measurements of the international system(meters, grams, etc..) and the hour time(no incense stick, or others). It may spoil it for some but I think it would be easier both for me and the readers. Before you read keep in mind that this is a novel with a slow progress. I don't want to give any spoiler but at least a few chapters will be dedicated to his life in the village.

Reborn in Isekai with Sharingan
I prefer the florid and uncanny Jutsu to plots of Naruto, especially Dōjutsu like Sharingan, which could be said, crazy! As the title said, this is a story about the protagonist reborn in Isekai with the ability of Sharingan. Actually, I have no idea where the storyline development would like to go in advance. Still, I’m sure it’ll be interesting. In addition, this story is original if according to the regulation of fanfiction, or you can say it’s half-original fiction. It’s no characters or background from Naruto but the abilities. Anyway, enjoy!
