James is sitting at the bar in his hotel. It is three in the afternoon when a brunette in a white business suit comes walking up to him.
“Mr. Stall?”
James takes a sip of his screwdriver without looking at him.
“James.”
The woman laughs and forces a chuckle to try and break the tension.
“Your dad’s Mr. Stall right?”
“Don’t talk about my father.”
“I was just making a-“
“And just call me James. I don’t care for the Mister. You could call me just Stall if you wanted to, but we’re not on a sports team together so I think that might be awkward.”
“James,”
“Who are you?”
“I’m-“
“Don’t tell me who you are. Just tell me why you’re here.”
“I’m supposed to interview to be your new personal assistant.”
“No.”
“I’m sorry?”
“I don’t do that.”
“Interview?”
“No. I don’t do personal assistants. Other people have those. I don’t.”
“I was told you were looking for someone.”
“Not by me.”
“No. It was-“
“Adam?”
“Yes.”
“Wrong. Adam wouldn’t do that.”
“Why not?”
“Because he knows that if he ever brought me someone to be my personal assistant.”
“Okay.”
“Okay?”
“Okay. You’ve got me.”
“It wasn’t that hard.”
“Oh?”
“Even if Adam wanted to send me an assistant he wouldn’t have her do her interview in a hotel bar.”
“You don’t like people much do you?”
“I like people just fine.”
“Just me then?”
“No. In case you haven’t noticed I’m sort of in the middle of something.”
“Your screwdriver?”
“My screwdriver.”
“If you don’t mind me asking-“
“I do.”
“Is something wrong?”
“Can’t a man drink a screwdriver in a hotel bar? It’s happy hour after all.”
“That’s fine.”
“And it’s just one screwdriver. It’s not like I pointed at the bottle of vodka and asked the bartender to leave it in front of me. I don’t appreciate your insinuations.”
“I’m not-“
“I’m just sitting here trying to enjoy my one screwdriver. I haven’t exactly been looking for strange women to walk up to me.”
“This isn’t your first screwdriver is it?”
“It’s my third… this hour.”
“Mind buying me one?”
“What are you doing here?”
“I’m just a fan of your work.”
“That’s impossible.”
“Why is that?”
“I’m a terrible person.”
“So?”
“So… alright. Maybe you are a fan. But if you are it’s because I hurt people. And if you’re into me because I hurt people that makes you a weirdo.”
“And?”
“And I think I’m going to need another screwdriver.”
“So what’s wrong?”
“Do you know what Sunday is?”
“It’s the Challenger Series.”
“Good girl. At least you did your homework before deciding to pretend you had a job interview.”
“Yes. And you’re in the Endurance Challenge.”
“Indeed I am. And do you know what that means?”
“It means you’ll be the Television Champion by Monday.”
“You don’t need to try so hard. I’m already prepared to sleep with you.”
“That’s good to know. So what does it mean?”
“It means I have to win.”
“You don’t have to win.”
“Have you seen my record? I have to win.”
“Winning isn’t everything.”
“That is so cliché.”
“Can’t you just be happy with hurting people?”
“Hurting people can only get you so much respect.”
“And you need the Television Championship for this respect?”
“Do you know the Chargers?”
“I’m not a sports person.”
“The Chargers are a talented football team. But no one takes them seriously. Do you know why?”
“Because they never win the big game.”
“This is your first title match.”
“Yes, but this isn’t my first big match here. I lost that one too.”
“Riot.”
“It’s nice to see you’ve been following my career.”
“Like I said, I’m a fan.”
“May I be honest with you Miss Doe?”
“That’s kind of your shtick isn’t it?”
“I’m nervous as hell.”
“You should be.”
“Thanks for the support.”
“Five other people in that match. The odds aren’t in your favor.”
“They’re not the ones I’m nervous about.”
“Oh?”
“It’s me.”
“So James Stall fears James Stall.”
“Don’t say it like that.”
“Is it not true?”
“Maybe. I’ve just got so much pressure. Such high expectations.”
“Can you do me a favor?”
“What?”
“Can you just tell me you’re gonna kick their asses?”
“I’m gonna kick their asses.”
“Thanks. Cause quite frankly this self-doubt bullshit was really starting to get to me.”
“Feelings mutual.”
“Now I suggest you finish that drink and then go sober up. You have a match to prepare for.”
“Why are you telling me this?”
“Because someone has to.”
“And why you?”
“It’s like I said. I’m a fan. I want you to win.”
“I….”
“You will.”
“I’m drunk.”
“Yes you are.”
“I’ll win.”
“That’s the spirit.”
“I will.”
“I’ll see you around Mr. Stall.”
“Thanks… I guess.”
