Criminal minds

Chapter 7: Meet and Greet

I put the car in park. I looked up at a medium sized, grey house. I bit my lip nervously. Gideon muttered under his breath.

I looked at him, "You didn't have to do this." He told me. I rolled my eyes and got out of the car. He followed short after. I walked up to the door and rang the doorbell. The door opened and my breath caught. I hadn't seen my parents since I was 15. And here I was, 21. 6 years later. I took a deep breath and smiled at my mother.

She looked at me kindly, "Can I help you miss?" My smile fell. She didn't remember me?

"Hi, um do you remember me?" I asked. Her eyebrows pinched together, she looked me up and down slowly.

"No?" She said slowly. I swallowed.

"Oh.. okay. Well I'm sorry to have bothered you. Goodnight." I said and quickly pulled Gideon with me back to the car.

"Wait!" She called after me. I hurriedly got in the passenger seat.

"Where are we going?" Gideon asked starting the car. I shook my head and closed my eyes. He started the car and we drove off into the night.

 

                                 *****

We drove for a long time. I must have fallen asleep at some point because i woke up in my bed. I looked around my room. It was just like it was when I was 18. I got up and opened my closet. I pulled out some ripped skinny jeans and a tank top with a ripped back. I was gonna try to get job today, or at least an interview. I walked into the kitchen and grabbed my car keys. I walked past the closet to stop and go back into it. I grabbed a fedora from the hook and smirked as i headed out, leaving a note for Gideon.

                                  *****

"So you want a job here?"

"Yes I would love to have a job here." I replied. The manager looked me up and down.

"I don't see much. Just a pretty lady." 

I rolled my eyes. Another one of these guys.  "I'll be a great waitress, just you see."

                  ***2 DAYS LATER***

Today was my first day of work. I tied my apron around my waist and set out to wait on tables. The first table i served was a lone guy around the age of 50. He simply looked at me before pointing to what he wanted without even saying a word.

I shrugged my shoulders before asking, "Anything else sir?" He shook his head slowly. I carefully nodded before giving his order to the chef. The door bell rung giving way that a customer came in. I turned and went to go serve them. I froze in my place when I saw who it was. My mom, dad, and Myanna. I slowly backed into the kitchen.

The chef looked at me, "You have to serve them." He said in his strong italian accent.

I shook my head, "Please anyone but them!" I cried emphasizing  the 'anyone'. He rolled his eyes and signaled to Mary. Mary went and served them in under a minute. She gave the chef the order and smirked at me. I glared at her. Show off. The bell rang again, showing another customer arrived. I quickly went to the table. I looked at the guy who just arrived and was caught off guard. He was really cute.

I bit my lip and asked him, "What can I get you?" He looked up and grinned.

"I'll take whatever your favorite food is here." I shrugged and smirked heading back to the kitchen. I got the food and put it down on his table. He smirked and looked up at me raising an eyebrow. "Lasagna? Lasagna is your favorite food here?" I nodded smirking right back. He motioned to the seat in front of him, "Take a seat?" I sat and looked a him. He ran his hand through his brown hair. He pushed the plate to me. "I'll take a cup of coffee. With lots of creamer." I nodded, getting up. I poured the coffee, watching him carefully. He drummed his fingers on the table and looked out the window. I brought the coffee back to him and set it on the table. I started to walk away, "Where you going? Aren't you going to eat this delicious lasagna or will i have to eat it for you?" I rolled my eyes, turning around.

"I have work?" I sat down at the table.

"My name is Kayden, by the way."

"I'm Rhynna."

"It's great to meet you Rhynna."

"You too, Kayden."

I forgot my mother was even there.
