New-Machinations (V) [Chapter 250]

**Trigger Warnings**

~~Tipsy Pixie~~

“A Churchill Martini please” Himera ordered in a bored tone as she placed a Galleon on the table. The bartender greeted her before she started to prepare her drink, but Himera was simply way too tired to care. It took a minute for the bartender to prepare the drink and when she was done, she placed the cocktail glass in front of Himera with a napkin placed under it.

Himera gave the woman a grateful look before she grabbed the straw and took a small sip from it… She savored the flavor for a bit before gulping it down. After taking another sip from her glass, she rolled around with her chair, only to find that the pub was basically empty. Even the regular strippers were simply lazing around since they didn’t have any spectators.

“Fuck…” Himera cursed before she turned around and slumped down on the bar.

“You look tired” The bartender pointed out while cleaning a glass.

“You can say that…” Himera mumbled tiredly. A part of her was cursing her past self for asking Harry to train her. The boy was beating her into the ground every day and by the time they were done, she would be sore all over. Himera knew that she was improving with each day, but she was also gathering stress with each passing day. She desperately needed some stress relief, but the pub was empty.

“I really need a good fucking” Himera grumbled unhappily, making the bartender chuckle. Himera had to gold to hire the deluxe service, but she was looking for an adventure.

“Don’t we all, but the business is down with two Dark Lords running around” The bartender muttered bitterly and Himera winced internally since Harry was one of those Dark Lords.

“Yeah…” Himera mumbled as she continued to sip her own drink and the bartender got busy with her own work. When Himera finished her drink, she simply ordered another one and continued to sip the drink in a relaxed fashion. Then all of a sudden, Himera was broken out of her musings when a young couple arrived at the bar and sat down not far from her.

‘I would tap’ Himera decided after she finished checking out both of them. The girl noticed her gaze and turned to whisper something into the boy’s ears. With a disappointed sigh, Himera decided to ignore the two of them since the two of them looked like a couple. There was a very small chance that she would be getting some action from either of them.

“Uh, excuse me?” The girl called out and Himera turned around, expecting to come across a Karen, but she was surprised. “Are you a local?” The girl asked, making Himera frown at the weird question.

“You can say that” Himera answered lazily as she took another sip from her drink.

“Well, you see… We are from Wales, so I was wondering if you could recommend us a drink?” The girl asked in a hopeful tone.

“What are you looking for? Something hard or…” Himera trailed off with a meaningful look on her face. She was kind of envious of them. They were probably around her age and they were enjoying their lives while her life was a kind of fucked up mess. It was getting better after she joined Harry, but her life was still fucked up in more ways than one.

“Something hard” The girl answered before turning toward the boy, who also grinned.

“Yes, definitely something hard!” The boy nodded his head with a grin.

Himera grinned in return… Maybe she could still have some fun with them. “Pardon my language, you can try Adios Motherfucker or Three Wise Men Down if you are looking for something strong” Himera answered and the duo looked at each other before turning toward the bartender who was looking at them with expectation clear on her face.

“Three Adios Motherfuckers, please” The boy ordered and the bartender threw Himera a saucy look before she went to work.

Himera internally cheered and chugged down the rest of her drink in one go… “So, what brings you two to Britain, considering the current climate?” Himera asked, trying to act welcoming. The two of them were buying her drinks, so there was still some hope.

“Well…” The girl turned around to look at the boy lovingly before she slipped her hand into the boy’s hand and that was when Himera noticed the rings. “We are recently married and we came here for the honeymoon, but then everything went to shit” The girl grumbled unhappily and Himera felt like someone had poured cold water over all of her hopes.

“I see…” Himera mumbled while cursing like a sailor on the inside. They didn’t chat anymore and when the drinks finally arrived, Himera chugged it down in one go, in an attempt to drown herself in her miseries.

“Hey, you want some?” Once again, Himera was brought out of her musings when the boy called out to her. Himera turned to see what he was talking about only to see a blunt in his hand.

“Sir, you can’t smoke that here” The bartender decided to interrupt.

“Shite” The boy cursed before he went to put the blunt back inside his robes.

‘So what if I won’t get fucked, maybe I can get stoned?’ Himera wondered as she decided why the fuck not? “Guys, I know a place if you really want to smoke that” Himera said and the boy simply grinned at her. So, after clearing their tab, the three of them decided to leave the pub, but the girl decided to grab a couple of bottles of rum and vodka from a muggle shop before Himera could take them to her spot.

“Hell… This place is nice” The boy grinned when the three of them finally arrived at the spot Himera was talking about. He pulled out the blunt from his pocket and lit it up before passing it over to Himera. She took a long drag from the blunt before passing it over to the girl. Soon, the three of them were drinking and smoking while having the time of their lives.

However, everything came crashing down when the couple started to get frisky, but then all of a sudden, the boy turned around and pulled in Himera for a kiss, making her sputter, and then the girl also stepped up and pulled her into another kiss, making her sputter even harder. “What the hell?” Himera managed to slur out with some difficulty as she stared at the couple weirdly.

“We were wondering if you want to join us… You know” The girl asked while wiggling her eyebrows.

“Yeah, you are awesome, but no pressure, you know… We have some drinks, grass, and powder back in our hotel” The boy revealed as he leaned down on the girl. “However, no pressure if you don’t want to join” The boy slurred.

Himera was really tempted to accept the offer. “Aren’t you two recently married?” Himera asked with a hiccup.

“Yeah, but some adventure won’t hurt” The girl exclaimed cheerfully. “And I want to show you the thing I can do with my tongue” The girl added and poked out her tongue. Only now did Himera notice the piercing in her tongue. Himera immediately started to think about the wonderful time she was going to have if she decided to accompany them back to their hotel.

“Sure, lead the way love birds” Himera exclaimed as she slung both of her arms around the boy and girl before the three of them engaged in a three-way kiss…

(Guys, I was wondering if you wanted to see the lemon too?)
