A Year Later

I decided on taking a part time job at a restaurant, even though I didn't need the money rattling around my house alone wasn't very fun. But the restaurant was great I met some lovely people and have got some new friends.

I have the night shift tonight which I love because I'll be working with my new work bestie Grace.

"Yes sir, I'll give the compliments to the chef" I walk back into the kitchen and sit on the stool "Jimmy, table 23 loved the chicken. Wanted me to pass on their compliments to the chef"
"I know the food is fantastic I cooked it myself"
"No shit Chef"

When we close up the restaurant we always have a glass of wine, I only have one glass now and again. I don't buy alcohol no more I just have the one glass after a night shift at work.
"So your going to love me Lex"
"How's that?"
"I got us 3 tickets to the premiere of Captain America Civil War. That's right baby premiere tickets!! Where the whole fucking cast will be there"
"How the fuck did you manage that Grace?" Jimmy absolutely loves all marvel movies, grace doesn't know that the only reason I watch them all the time is so I can see Rob
"Jimmy darling you just gotta screw the right people, so your in. Lexie what about you?"
Do I really want to go? Do I want to see him? I might not see him. "Look I can't guarantee that we will actually meet any of the cast but we might catch a glimpse of them, at least we will get to see the movie huh?"
"Yeah okay, I'm up for it"
"Yay!! Okay well it's for tomorrow night so how the fuck are the three of us getting off work?"
"Well it's easy for me coz I'm not working tomorrow but you and Jimmy are on a day shift grace"
"Well I'm calling in sick. Jim?"
"I'll call Marco and he can work instead of me, I'll make it up for him"
"So it's set bitches! We are going to the premiere! Oh and dress nice it's all dresses and suits so please wear something classy"

The next morning my phone is being blown up by grace, bombarding me with photos of dresses she wants to wear. Jimmy text with a photo of his suit, he looked so handsome in it.

I walk around in the shops looking for a dress, I never told grace that I had money. So I could never go shopping in the places that I wanted otherwise it would look suspicious, I wanted them to like me for me and not for my money.

Finally settled on a dress, I start to get myself ready. Grace had a car picking us up from mine at 6.

Jimmy and grace were downstairs drinking some champagne, I chose to have one glass. "Be honest now do I look okay?" I walk into the main room where they are standing

"Lexie you look stunning!" Grace walks over and touches my dress "where the hell did you find such a stunning dress?""It was something I had from before a friend of mine bought it for me""It's beautiful and I need to borrow it when your done""That...
