This was a bar thatencouragedexcess.
There wasn’t a healthy drink or food option in sight and it was all the better for it, at least as far as Logan and his Daddy friends were concerned.
The drinks were reasonably priced and were always served with a smile by one of the sexy bartenders. Many of the bartenders were musicians or artists, each one with their own creative hustle going on outside of work who didn’t mind a little flirting in exchange for a healthy tip.
The booth seats were compact and snug, and offered the perfect amount of privacy to let loose and let the good times flow. At the same time, it was still possible to peer out fromthe comfortable booth and see what was going on across the width of the bar.
Privacy and the ability to people watch? This sounded like a dream as far as Logan was concerned.
Logan also felt sure that if Stella could get past the wild vibe, she would probably have a great time here too.
All told, Logan was seriously impressed with the place.
My kinda vibe. Real Daddy energy.
My kinda beers. Real Daddy drinks.
I think tonight’s going to be a good night…
Logan looked around the bar and saw that both Leo and Eddie had arrived before him.
Logan’s fellow Daddies were both safely nestled in one of the booths near the back of the bar and already had a table fully stocked with a metal ice bucket containing what appeared to be gold-label, premium beer.
‘Hell yeah!’ Logan called out, raising his hand to his friends and walking over toward them.
Logan hadalwaysbeen a confident guy.
Ever since he was a toddler who could barely walk five feet without stumbling, Logan just had a natural sense of his own charm. People were drawn to him, and he was drawn to other people too. Logan’s popularity growing up had given him a lot of confidence to be himself and do what he wanted in life.
It was great to be confident, and Logan certainly didn’t underestimate the benefits that came with it. However, Loganwas beginning to see that perhaps his confidence didn’t run as deep as many, including himself, thought it did.
Logan hadn’t seen Eddie or Leo in a while.
Both Eddie and Leo had been doing very well in their lives. Whether it was money, career success, or foreign travel, Logan knew that his two friends wanted for very little. Everything seemed to come very easily to them.
Logan’s recent life experiences hadn’t been so good. It made Logan feel like crap, but when he thought of Leo and Eddie he only saw his own failures. It was part of the reason why when he had his car smash, he chose not to contact either of them.
They may have been three old Daddy friends, but the thought of receiving sympathy from them was something that didn’t appeal to Logan at all. He wanted to be treated as an equal, and the idea that his buddies might pity him was too difficult to handle.
But rather than get too down on things, Logan decided to put his best foot forward and party just like he did back in the day.
‘The old gang back together!’ Logan declared as he approached the table.
‘Looks like Logan’s finally embraced the Daddy-side!’ Eddie roared, much to Leo’s delight.
‘Hell yeah!’ Leo bellowed. ‘And about time. I’ve never seen a more natural Daddy in my fucking life. Excludingmyself, of course.’
Logan grinned.
But before Logan had the chance to sit down, both Eddie and Leo were off their feet and the three of them were part of one big, musclebound bearhug.
It feltgreat.
Logan immediately felt at ease and knew for sure that neither Leo nor Eddie thought any less of him despite the recent downturn in his fortunes. This is what true friendship felt like and Logan felt sure that this was going to be a superb night.
After finishing the extended bearhug, the three Daddies clambered back into their booth.
All three of them were pretty much the same age, and all three looked great for their forty-four or thereabouts years on the planet.
