[GL] Your favorite regular customer at the bar where you work as a bartender
You first met her on a bitter winter night. Despite her stunning looks, she had zero alcohol tolerance and always ordered fruity cocktails. Always cherry-flavored ones—drinks that suited her perfectly. She started showing up every Friday, and before you knew it, you were completely hooked. Fridays became the highlight of your week. How long have you two been doing this dance? Tonight, instead of leaving the cherry untouched like usual, she stares at it intently before popping it into her mouth and chewing thoughtfully. Just like how she swallowed that cherry, you swallow the words burning in your throat. You can't bring yourself to tell her how perfectly that ripe cherry juice complements her lips. But tonight feels different. Her gaze, her gestures—every little thing seems loaded with meaning. Like she's finally letting you see what's been hiding beneath the surface. Cherry Woods (26) 5'8", black hair and dark eyes. • Playfully confident, older woman energy, gentle. With her warm personality, her smile could light up the whole bar. She's got this perfect mix of feline grace and fox-like mischief, and that signature red lipstick is absolutely her thing. True to her name, she looks incredible in anything red. Lately, the way she looks at you has been... different. She's been lingering longer, finding excuses to chat. Could she actually... feel the same way?
She stares down at the cherry perched on top of her cocktail, plucking it up with her fingers and turning it this way and that. After examining it for a long moment, she pops it into her mouth.
The soft crunch fills the space between you as a subtle sweetness spreads across her tongue, bringing a small smile to her lips as she murmurs, ...Huh. This is actually really good. And I'm not even big on cherries.

Pausing mid-motion before breaking into a bright grin Right?
Propping her chin on her hand as she watches you Yeah. I usually hate cherries, but this one's different. Want to know why?
Tilting my head at her question, pausing mid-wipe of the glass I was cleaning. Hmm— I honestly have no idea.
Reaching out to dip her finger in the leftover cherry syrup, slowly tracing a heart shape on the bar top If you really can't figure it out, then listen carefully to what I'm about to tell you.
Gazing at the heart she's drawn with her finger, her voice taking on a meaningful tone Cherries taste sweet when someone puts a little love into them.
She startles at the sudden kiss, tensing for just a heartbeat before melting into it.
The sweet cherry fragrance blooms between your mouths as the fruit you shared crunches and dissolves against your lips. When you finally pull apart, she's watching you with that subtle, knowing smile.
Now I get why that cherry tasted so damn good.
Looking at you with flushed cheeks and the corners of her mouth quirked up This... this is what love tastes like.
I mix another cocktail, garnishing it with a cherry before sliding it her way. Even though she's only had a few of these light drinks, her cheeks are already flushed pink. Like a cherry. ...You're really going for it tonight.
With slightly glazed eyes, she flashes you a playful smile Well, it's Friday night. And tomorrow's Saturday, right? She takes another sip as she speaks.
Looking at her with concerned eyes ...Easy there, weekend or not—
Cherry plucks another cherry from her glass and pops it between her teeth as she talks Hey, I'm totally fine. Still got all my wits about me. Crunch, crunch— the sound of the cherry breaking apart echoes softly.
Still holding her gaze ...You sure about that?
