As he walks back to the table, Toby notices Marisol smiling at him. He blushes and winks at her as she bites her lower lip. She walks towards his way as she softly whispers in his ear,

Marisol : If you flirt any harder, you might just order a side of a really horny Latina.
Toby : Good to know, hehe.
Marisol : Wave me down when you and your friends are ready to order.

Marisol smiles as she walks towards another table with a pot of coffee in her hand. Toby finds the table as he sits back down and Ruby laughs softly.

Tyler : Did that stomach bug clear up?
Toby : What stomach bug?
Piper : Ruby said you had the bubble guts, you had to shit badly.
Ruby : Yeah, you said that. Are you okay?
Toby : Oh... Yeah. I'm okay. Everything is all good. Are we all ready to order?
O'Shay : Almost, Brantley is still deciding.
Asher : Just get the carne guisada plate, it's super delicious. Standard rice and beans on the side, trust me.
Brantley : Alright, I'm ready.
Toby : Let me call señorita Marisol.

Piper laughs as she holds onto her stomach. Tyler looks at her as he kisses her neck and whispers something, inaudible. She nods, then takes a sip of her lemonade. Toby eyes down Marisol and waves her down. She nods as she comes walking towards the table, with a pen and notepad.
Shortly after writing everyone's order down, she smiles and taps on Toby's shoulder softly. Tyler raises his eyebrow and smiles at Toby. Brantley giggles as he rolls his eyes softly. Marisol walks away to place the order, as everyone all giggle at Toby.

O'Shay : So you're seriously taking your shot with Marisol?
Toby : I'm going to risk it. Plus, I think she's really into me.
Brantley : I'm sure she is. You're a really handsome guy Toby. If that was me, I would say yes to you.

Everyone's smile shortly fades away, as Toby raises his eyebrow. His heart beginning to race harder, he begins to look at Brantley frightened.

Toby : R-Really?
Brantley : I mean yeah. Everyone here would agree, right guys? You're insanely attractive and a great guy. You always have your guard up, and you would never let anything happen to the people you love.
Piper : Yes.
Tyler : Totally man, if I was gay. I'd do you.
Asher : I don't think that's what he meant.

Asher laughs as everyone smiles. Toby grins softly as he looks at Brantley, then back at Marisol. He closes his eyes and thinks to himself,

{Okay, what do I do? I really want Brantley, but Marisol is into me for sure. I don't want to fuck up my friendship with him. I don't want to make anything weird, he's so adorable and so handsome. Should I just put Brantley on pause? Should I ask Mari out first and see how it goes? God, why is this so complicated!? God, he's so cute. I want to grab his happy stupid cheerful face and make out with him. I'd treat him better than any other guy would. I'd hold him and never let go. However, the way Mari looks at me. God she's so hot. What if she doesn't like guys who are bisexual? Fuck it, I'm doing it.}

Toby faces Brantley and smiles, as Brantley looks back at him confused. Everyone at the table raises their eyebrow, while Toby grabs a handful of Brantley's hair. Releasing a soft whimper, Brantley looks at Toby, as he then leans in closer for his lips. Feeling his heart beat faster, Toby starts to kiss Brantley passionate. Brantley softly presses his hands against Toby's chest, while Toby begins to kiss Brantley's neck and begins to whisper in his ear,.

Tyler : You good bro?
Toby : Huh? Oh. Yeah. Sorry, I just... I was spacing out, I guess.

Toby rolls his eyes softly and shakes his head, as he realizes he was just imagining the entire thing. He takes a sip of his drink as everyone starts to talk about the incident.

Asher : My shoulder is still sore, but it feels much better with the antibiotics.
Ruby : I still can't believe that all happened.
Tyler : I know, me neither. Is it weird that I blame Caleb for what happened?
Toby : No. I kind of blame him for it all, even if he got hurt too.
Brantley : What do you mean?
Toby : This guy who you met at the mall, he begins to be attracted to you. He suddenly invites you to his family ranch that's miles away. He uses you for sex, while there's a maniac trying to hunt us down, literally. You don't find it strange?
Brantley : So you're saying it's his fault? There's no way he could of known about that maniac stalking us. Luckily you had that gun on you. 

Marisol then comes with everyone's food, as she hands everyone their plate. Brantley smiles as Marisol looks at him clearer. She then raises an eyebrow and whispers,

Marisol : Your friend's really hot
Brantley : I know, he's really handsome. Ask him out, girly.

Marisol giggles, as Toby looks over at them confused. He asks what they were whispering about, while everyone begins to dig in their food and eat. Marisol then looks at Toby and plays with her own hair, as she takes a deep breath.

Marisol : It's Toby right?
Toby : .
Marisol : I was wondering, if you'd like to maybe go out. If not, it's okay.

Everyone all looks at him as he looks at Brantley, then he turns to Marisol and smiles softly. Everyone waits for him to answer, as he chuckles and blushes lightly,

Toby : Sure. Yes, I'd love that.
Marisol : How does tomorrow night sound?
Toby : I could make that happen.
Marisol : Great! Well um, you guys enjoy your food. I.. I'll be over there if you um, need me.

As Marisol leaves, the guys all high-five Toby as Brantley gives him a warm hug. However, the girls had a disappointed look on their faces. Toby shrugs as he looks at the girls, while they just eat and remain quiet.

O'Shay : Damn dude, you left her blushing and speechless. If you have her like that right now, imagine how you'll have her legs shaking after your done wi-
Piper : Eww gross!
Asher : Okayyy. That was too much.
Toby : Thanks, I hope I left a good impression on her. She seems really fun and chill.

Later after everyone finishes their food, they were all getting ready to leave. Everyone decided to pay on separate checks as Marisol was helping them. O'Shay laughs as he looks at her and says before leaving,

O'Shay : Don't worry Mari, Toby will make sure to give you that tip.

She blushes as Toby smacks his head and looks at her apologizing for him. Marisol grabs a pen and tugs on Toby's arm, as she writes her phone number on his wrist. She winks, as she attends to a different group that had just walked in. Toby smiles and watches her, as he leaves the restaurant.
