Zora Carter is waitress at a Luxurious Restaurant in Soho.
Working in such an expensive neighborhood has it perks such as good tips, but with lots of rich people coming in and out, she seems to catch the eye of one of them.
De'andre Willis is the CEO of millionaire magazine. So he's is kinda you know, really rich. He's also known for being a big playboy inheriting his late fathers bajillionare fortune and his business. He's also like mega hot, but besides that Zora needed to keep her composure because this is her job and she needs to treat him like just another customer.
" Hi, my name is Zora and I will be your hostess for today, " Zora spoke pulling out her notepad. " Can I start you gentlemen off with some drinks? " He was accompanied by a few other men, which she was assuming were co-workers.
" Um, yea ill have one Old Fashioned. Thank you. " De'andre said letting out his British accent spill out with his words. Zora was mesmerized by the way he softly licked his lips and started into her eyes as he spoke his order.
"Hello? are you there?" Her thoughts are interrupted by one of the other men snapping his fingers at her in an attempt to get her attention.
"Im sorry, could you repeat that for me?" Zora apologized to the man who was clearly a little pissed off by her ignoring him. She jots down all the mens drinks and starts to walk away when she hears one of the other men say,
"The bar for customer service is practically in hell," followed by a couple chuckles from other men. Zora rolls her eyes as she walks away retrieving there drinks and walking back to the table. With her holding all 5 drinks she had to be very careful to not drop them. Walking up to the table Zora stumbles a bit and almost spilling the drinks, she feels a hand on the small of her back. she looks up from the ground to see De'andre standing in front of her holding her up.
" Are you alright, you seems to have taken a little tumble." He chuckles staring into her eyes. Zora stared into his mesmerized by his big brown almost puppy dog looking eyes, causing her too blush a little bit. She looks to her feet trying to hide her embarrassed expression.
"Um, yea I'm fine. Im sorry for the mess." Zora softly speaks, breathing in his strong cologne as she adjusts her uniform and placed down the mens drinks, getting a couple thank you and scoffs in reply.
"Nah its all good, thank you. Just be careful, ok?" De'andre chuckles earning a laugh from her also. Agreeing she walks away replaying what just happened in her head. The way he held onto her waist had her kind of fan grilling over this man who everyone had always had a crush on, all her friends and even her sisters had thought he was really handsome. She had never noticed how fine this man was until he was standing in-front of her making sure she wasn't going to face plant on the ground.
Zora walked into the kitchen spotting her co-worker Indiya, stopping to tell her that her favorite celebrity was out there.
"Hey indiya, guess who's at table four?" Zora said giggling, walking towards indiya who was refilling some drinks.
"Who? another obnoxious playboy?" Indiya said giggling at her own words.
"Playboy, yes. Obnoxious, not quite." Indiya turns around confused at Zora's words. "Mr. tasty is here!" she says in a fake excited voice to hide her true excitement. Zora and Indiya had come up with a nickname for him in a way to mock Indiya's mega crush on him

(this is Indiya just for you to be able to picture her ;)
Indiya lets out a huge gasp running towards the door to peek into the dining room in disbelief. Peering through the slightly open door she lets out another gasp speaking In a high pitched voice.
"Girl he is even finer in person, your lucky you get to serve them!" Zora rolls her eyes sitting on one of the unaccompanied stools.
" Yea right, I don't think they even like me." Indiya gives her a puzzled look almost in disbelief, " First, I zone out and totally ignore their orders. Then I almost trip and spill their drinks everywhere." Indiya lets out a small laugh but stops once she sees Zora's annoyed face. Zora checks her watch and taps it.
" Would you look at the time, I have to go check on Mr. tasty and his friends." she says squeezing past Indiya.
" Hey, um would you introduce me maybe?" Indiya whispers in jokingly tone earning a chuckle and an eye roll from Zora. Walking towards the table fiddling with her fingers nervously she stops in front of the table.
" Can I get you gentlemen anything else, any refills? she asks try to mask her nervousness. all the men glance up at her.
" Nah, we're all good here. Just the check." she hears the British voice causing her to swivel her head in that direction. Her eyes meeting his she tries not to zone out again and nods, giving a smile before she spins around walking to another one of her tables to do the same check in.
Bringing the check for all the meals to their table she places it down on the table, smiling at the men before she spoke.
"Here you go! I'll be back in a few minutes to collect it." The men all gave her half smiles and nods.
"Thank you." He spoke giving her a charming smirk, mesmerized by his perfect, straight, white teeth and full lips she wasn't thinking straight when her mouth suddenly opened and words spilled out.
