Perfection

Drinking in the Bar

"C'mon, Riles," Xander pulled Riley away from a lady he had been eyeing at the bar. "You have a wife. And three kids." 

"Damn," Riley muttered under his breathe. "Just tryna have some fun!" His voice rose as he spoke, startling the ones around him in the loud bar. 

"Shhh," Xander shushed his bandmate. "You call cheating on your wife and kids fun? How is that fun? In the slightest bit?"

Riley shrugged and stated to go back to the table where the rest of the band were sitting. However, Xander pulled his shoulder holding him back. 

"You need to hold off of the drinks for a bit."

"Why? I'm fine, " Riley slurred. "Perfectly fine."

"And tomorrow you will be hung over, regretting every decision you ever made tonight. Besides, tomorrow we are busy with interviews all day to promote the new album."

"I'm fine," Riley protested. 

"You love your wife; and your children are the world to you. I know this is all because you miss them. But you gotta stop this!" 

Riley rolled his eyes and stumbled to the other end of the room, where the darts were. Several people were playing with them, however, one board was open. Xander followed. 

"I am in love with Lilyanna Coffman-Hansen. And no one can change my mind!" Riley loudly declared as he picked up darts from the board, and stepped back. 

"We know you are," Oliver said; having already been there and completely sober.

"Does anyone have a picture of a pretty woman?" Riley shouted, looking around to see if anyone would have heard him. "Preferably on paper."

People around him gave him strange looks. 

"I'll ask again," Riley slurred. "Does anyone have a picture of a beautiful woman who is not my wife?"

"We don't even know your name, Bro. Why would we know what your wife looks like?" A man asked, who was half-drunk. He was an older man. 

Internally, Riley raged. Years of work, and this man didn't know who he was. "You don't know?!" His voice rose as he spoke. 

"Here, have this one," another fellow drinker at the same table took a picture out of his wallet, handing it to Riley. 

Riley looked at it and nodded in approval. He stepped back towards the target board, pinned the picture on it with a dark, and took a few large steps backwards. He threw darts directly at the picture, making Xander and Oliver both wince. "And that's how I feel about any other women who are not my wife!"
