((this is the most ridiculous love triangle EVER.))
Leo watched them leave, and sat down at the bar. He didn't usually drink much, but today felt like an exception. "Gimme a cold one, Phil," he nodded to the bartender who poured him a glass of beer. Leo brought it up to his lips, and drank the cold brew slowly.
((Does anyone wanna come talk to Leo, or should we end it here?))

((Yeah, he wouldn't. Ershey it is, then))
The closing shift at Tibby's was always difficult and Ershey hated it. She had to clean everything and serve everyone at the same time. It was definitely not her favorite part of the day, figuring she would give herself a treat. Maybe dance around at Irving Hall or have a drink or two.
Ershey walked in Irving Hall, making her way towards the bar. She sat on the stool, not noticing the newsie that was next to her as she tried to wave down the bartender.

Although Leo wasn't in the mood to talk to anyone, he noticed that the female newsie next to him (whom he recognized from the LH) was having difficulty getting Phil's attention. He whistled and gestured for Phil to come over.
"Whatta need?" Phil asked Leo, eying Leo's full beer still in his hands.
"Not for me," Leo replied and gestured to the female next to him. "It's on me." He said kindly to the girl, "It looks like you're having a hard day too."

"Just a beer, thanks," muttered Ershey, both surprised to see a newsie next to her and that he was offering to pay for her drink.
"Hey, you know you didn't need to do that," she said, taking her drink as Phil handed it to her. He seemed down in the dumps but he looked familiar. She was sure she'd seen him around the lodging house before.

Leo smiled and whispered, "He ain't gonna charge me, I work here."

"Oh! Uh, thanks, then," replied Ershey, chuckling. "You live over at the lodgin' house, right?"

"Si," Leo replied nodding. "As do you, correct?"

"Mmhmm," said Ershey, sipping her drink. "Only been there a couple weeks though. It's not bad."
She shrugged and looked over at him, noticing that he seemed a bit down. "Everythin' goin' alright with you?"

"Eh, not particularly. I finally met a girl I genuinely like and she's seeing someone else too," Leo explained, sighing.

"Oh, well, that's not fun," said Ershey, frowning. "Are you sure she's seein' someone else?"

Leo nodded. "She was here with him tonight. they were dancing"

"Oh. You sure that you should be buying me a drink? It should be other way around," she said, hoping to cheer him up somehow.
