It was getting late, yet, people continued to walk the streets. Alex Graham was among those that still wandered the twilit streets of the city. He was average height and had dark hair he had smoothed back for the time being. He wore black framed glasses and was sharply dressed for the day. He didn't have any set job, but had earned one today. He worked as a free lance artist, though he was really just starting out. He thought he would celebrate for getting this job by heading out to one of the bars in the city. It wasn't too far from his own home, which was currently a decent apartment building that he shared with someone else. He was aiming to get something better within the year though.
Entering the bar, his gaze quickly scanned the place for a seat. It was quaint, but there were still quite a few people and hardly anywhere to sit. This particular hour was usually when people ventured out to go to restaurants and the like with friends, family, or even just to go on dates. Of course, he was only doing this as a gift to himself for getting this job. He moved to take a seat, of course, he didn't know the person he sat near. He ordered his drink as soon as someone came by to ask him what he wanted.
While sitting there, he wasn't one to start small talk, but he was feeling pretty good today. Besides, it would probably be better than just sitting here in silence. "So..." It was a bit drawn out, awkward even... But he couldn't go back on it now. "Nice weather we're having this evening, huh?" He mentally cursed himself for making such awkward small talk in the end though. He hadn't minded at first, but now what if they were one of those guys who didn't like it? He didn't particularly mind people starting conversations with him, but he didn't normally do it himself. Upon getting a proper look at him though, he was honestly surprised he was still one of the few that sat alone. In the eyes of most he'd be handsome and that alone would attract attention from others seeking a good-looking partner.
