 A bar on the southside of town, run by someone both shady and dubious.

 Cause There's A Side To You
Ducking into the bar, the young man glances about discreetly with one hand on the brim of his hat. With no one he would expect to be a fan in sight, he relaxed and let out a sigh. A sketchy bar like this wasn't where one would expect to find a celebrity, but that was exactly why he had chosen it. He was hoping that Lloyd and Cedric would respond to his text message and show up. Crossing the room to occupy a stool at the bar, he removes the guitar case from his back and props it up against the bar. Hanging his hat on the top, he turns to raise a brow at the bartender. Despite how shady the place was, Cam was hardly intimidated; growing up on the streets of a fair bigger, and less friendly, city could do that to you. Despite his 'pretty boy' good looks, he was far from ignorant of the going ons in the room.

Not long after, a incredibly casually-dressed Lloyd strolled through the front entrance, accompanied by a rather large gentleman in a suit. Seeing a guitar at the counter, next to Cam, he made his way across the room, took a seat next to the two, and snapped at the rather large man. "Peaches? The Car's around front, take the keys and go do something for a while." He said, tossing him his keys. The man nodded, disappearing in a hurry. Lloyd then turned to the bartender, and simply said: "Get me what he gets."

Cedric walked into the room. He seemed to be the last one again. He felt slow and sluggish and he didn't know how to react to Lloyd or Cam at the moment. He did have news for them and he was sure they would be happy, but he was scared to tell him anything about it because the feelings were so raw and new that he himself didn't know how to react to them. The shy man sat next to his friends. "I'm here." He told them with a smile in his soft voice.

Cause There's A Side To You
Another figure entered the bar, causing the bartender to look up. He cast the redhead a quick smirk, turning to glance at the new guy briefly. "Sorry, boys, my shift is over. Asta here'll take care of ya." he reached out to pat the blonde girl who had just entered on the shoulder, draping the cloth that had been around his shoulder over hers. He disappeared into the back of the building, leaving the blonde girl alone behind the bar. She glanced at each of the three men that had just entered a moment, smiling faintly at the redhead, who was a regular. It seemed he had brought friends that day, and she turned to fix two of the redhead's usual.
Turning in his chair at the sound of familiar footsteps, the redhead flashed a grin at his friend. "I still don't get why you let them saddle you with him." he commented as his friend sat beside him, relaxing his back against the bar. Cedric followed not too much later, and he cast the guitar player a friendly grin. "Hey, Ced. How ya been?" they were on a short break from their tour, and the bass player had seemed to avoid everyone he knew. Basically, he had been in hiding, and this was the first time he had seen the other two in a few days. "Let Boys' Night Out commence."
Turning around with the finished drinks, it was obvious that Cam wasn't a fancy drinker; a bit of a mix, but certainly nothing special. Setting one done in front of Cam and Lloyd, the blonde turns her neutral gaze on Cedric. "Can I get you something?" she asks, using the cloth to wipe any excess liquid from her hands.

Cedric blushed as the girl looked at him. "A kirin beer please." He answered by asking for probably one of the weakest beers out there. He then turned to his friend. He was at least not messing up on his words any more. "I'm going on a date." He answered before leaning into Cam's ear. He wasn't sure how Lloyd would react to him just yet. "With Amy." He told his friend before pulling away with a blush.

Smiling at the shyest of the group, the vampiress' teeth gleamed in the slightly dim lights of the bar before turning to fetch his order. Ducking beneath the bar, she opened a cooler beneath the bar containing the requested drink. It wasn't a strong brew, but she wasn't there to judge; the boy was lucky that the had the drink in question, considering their usual patrons were more of the heavy drinkers. However, the owner's wife was a big fan of Kirin and so they kept some on hand at all times. "Here you are." she placed the beer on the counter on the other side of the redhead, sauntering down the bar to serve another patron.
Lifting the drink placed in front of him to his lips, Cam paused at Cedric's news. "Really? That's great." he grinned, slightly surprised when the other man bent down to whisper in his ear. It was a good thing that there had been no water in his mouth when Cedric told him this, as it most certainly would have come spewing out. He kept his composure, however, and lifted his drink once more to take a long swallow. "Really?" he asked, a bit surprised. Questions bubbled up inside him, but he couldn't ask them now; obviously Ced didn't want Lloyd to know just yet.

Lloyd took a long look at his drink before picking it up, then stopping to sniff it. Cynthia wasn't huge on him going to a bar, especially after their honeymoon, (He'd gotten wasted their second night, and she had to drag him home) so he was extremely cautious about what he drank. "Cam? What... IS this exactly?" He asked rather hesitantly.

Cedric was super shy about it. he didn't know how to approach the subject of telling Lloyd that he was seeing Amy outside of a formal setting. He again leaned into Cam. It wasn't that he wasn't as close to Lloyd as he was with Cam, but he couldn't ask Lloyd that question. "How should I tell him?" Ced asked his friend.

The redhead took another drink, eyeing his friend cautiously. "I think your best bet is to just tell him. Soon." he set his drink down, knowing that what he would do and what Ced would do might not line up. Cam was far from shy, but the same thing could not be said about his guitar playing friend. "Take him aside and have a man to man talk. I can be nearby if you need me." he encouraged the other man, giving him a short smile. He glanced over at Lloyd, his signature smirk appearing once more on his face. "It's a Hurricane." the redhead responds, one hand wrapping around the cold glass. "There's rum in it." light and dark, but he kept that to himself. Surely Lloyd could handle one of the drink, though the bass player would suggest moving to beer if he insisted on drinking more.

as moku opens the door of the café a cold air fills the room. he looks around, scaning the room so to speak. he walkes in and takes a seat at the bar and takes of his hat uncovering his half-long spiky red hair, then he says as he puts his hat down on the bar"poor me a glas of jack daniels black label please..."

✿ How Many Degrees Can I Get ✿ Looking up from her rows of mugs that needed drying, the blonde put on her business smile and nodded. Flipping over the glass she had just dried, she turned to the rows of liquor on display behind the bar. Plucking one from the back row, she spun the bottle in her hand to check the label. It was indeed black, and it had the asked for name. "Here you are." she set the glass in front of the boy, drying her hands with the rag over her shoulder. The bartenders down here didn't usually card; even kids desperate for alcohol wouldn't wander down here. Flipping the cloth back over her shoulder, she picks up her drying rag once more before going back to work.

Cedric nodded. He could agree to that. He just now needed to pull his friend to the side and talk to him. He would have to do to later. "Thanks Cam. I'm glad I have a friend like you. Hey maybe we should kidnap Ephraim and take him out one of these days. Just the three of us." The shy man commented. There is a lot of things they could do like bring him to a photo shoot and take pictures with him or something.

Grinning at the other man, the redhead takes another drink from his glass. "So long as by 'kidnap' you still mean 'get permission from my brother and sister-in-law so they don't murder us', I'm game." Cam adored his nephew, and would certainly enjoy a day out with the little man and his friend. He found it almost funny that he shared a nephew with his bandmate, especially since neither of them were related by blood. He knew that Cedric and his sister-in-law were very close, so he supposed it shouldn't be much of a surprise that he was named an honorary uncle as well. He had thought little of it beyond the initial statement, coming to accept the addition to his family with surprising ease.

Shrugging upon hearing it's contents, Lloyd proceeded to take a rather large swig from his glass, a quarter of it gone when he was done. Shaking his head a bit, he slammed it back down on the table. "Cam, after this, we're doin' shots." He stated, going to finish his drink.
