Rhett was no stranger to the small town bar, the Handsome Gambler, as he tends to go there after every bad bull riding round (which was frequent).

This routine also meant he knew most of the bartenders and the fellow regulars.

But tonight? Tonight he sees someone new.

He walked into the crowded building, navigating his way through the crowd to his usual spot at the bar and sits down when he saw you. A new face.

You had just moved to the small town and this bar was the best you could do for a job for now. Is it something you enjoy? Not necessarily, especially with the random guys that think every woman is attracted to them, but it was the best you had.

From his spot, Rhett not so subtly studied you. You were definitely pleasing to the eye, that's for sure...

" Hey, you. "

Rhett nods towards you, catching your attention.

" You new 'round here? "

He asks, his eyes traveling over your form in curiosity before he looks back up at your face, his cowboy hat casting shadows across his face, making it difficult to see him.
