CHELSEA POV:

-

"Chelsea, can you bring this out to table 16?" Maria gives me a plate of green leaves and I look at it disgusted.

"What the heck is this?" I ask while I look up at her again, still making a face.

"I don't know, Diego said a guy ordered it. I don't even want to know." She turns back around to her own two plates and I fake gag.

As I walk out of the kitchen to table sixteen I stop abruptly. "What the fuck are you doing here?" I ask as I put down the plate in front of nobody other than Gavi. Next to him sitting Frenkie, Pedri and Ferran.

"Do I know you?" Gavi asks confused and in all seriousness.

"I think you do, what the heck are you doing here?" I ask now all of them.

"Um, who ar-" Gavi wants to ask but Pedri slaps his hand against his forehead.

"You're so stupid aren't you?" Pedri asks after he gains everyone's attention.

"What why?" Gavi asks, still confused about what's happening. Frenkie and Ferran are looking between the two of them, smiling.

"That's Chelsea!" Pedri says loudly and Gavi's jaw drops. He slowly turns his head to look at me and then stands up.

"Hey, I'm so sorry." He opens his arms but I take a step back.

"I'm fine thanks." I smile at him and then he sits down again. The others smile at him while Gavi is hiding his face below his shirt.

"This is the first time we see you. Crazy." Ferran says and I nod.

"Not the first time I see you guys tho," I say and they give me a weird look. "It's nothing," I tell them.

"Okay," Ferran says confused.

"So, any orders?" I ask as I pull out my pen and paper. I look at Pedri who scoffs and looks away as soon as we make eye contact.

I shrug it off and then look at Ferran. "I'd like to have a menu 3 please." I write it down and then turn to Frenkie.

"I'll take a menu 9" He gives me a small smile and I turn to Gavi.

"3" He answers shortly and I turn to Pedri.

"Pedri?" I ask and look down at my small notebook.

"15" He answers and looks at me for a split second. I give them a small smile and then walk back into the kitchen. I hang up the paper and then grab some other plates.

"Maria, where do these go?" I yell over to her and she looks up immediately.

"Table 21" She yells back and I nod. I walk out of the kitchen again and go over to table two where an elderly couple is sitting.

"Here's your food" I smile and they both look up at me.

"Thank you." Both of them answer and I smile again. I make my way back to the kitchen and as I pass the guys' table Ferran calls out my name.

"Chelsea" Ferran says and I turn around almost immediately.

"Yes, Ferran?" I ask while I smile, always gotta be friendly to the customers.

"Since when do you work here?" He asks and I sigh, I look at my phone and then turn it off, and stuff it into my pocket again.

"How about you come to visit me in my office as soon as you guys are done hm? There you can ask me all the questions you want." I smile at them again and Pedri looks at Gavi.

"Yeah, sure." Gavi looks at me and I nod.

"Walk through the kitchen and say you're looking for Chelsea," I say and then storm off again. I walk over to Maria so I don't have to yell and she looks up at me.

"Do you still need me?" I ask and she's quiet for a second before shaking her head.

"Thanks for helping out." She says and I give her a small smile too.

"It's nothing. Bye," I wave at her and walk away. "Maria" I walk back again and she looks up at me.

"Yeah?" She asks.

"Table 14 is on the house, they don't have to pay. Is that clear?" I ask and she nods her head. Then I walk away again.

I walk to my office on the second floor which means I have to use the elevator too.

I finally arrive in my office and close the door. I take off my uniform and change back into my normal clothes.

I sit down in front of my computer and work a bit more. After about twenty minutes I hear a knock on my door.

"Yeah?" I yell and Sarah opens the door.

"They said they're looking for you." She says and I nod as she opens the door further.

"Hey," Frenkie says and sits down on one of the three chairs in front of my table.

"Hello," I smile as I look at all of the come inside. Gavi and Ferran sit down and Pedri leans against the wall. Sarah closes the door and Pedri crosses his arms while looking at me.

"Thanks for the lunch by the way. That's nice of you." Frenkie says and I nod.

"Of course." I smile and then clear my throat "So" I turn off my computer and look at all of them. "Any questions"

"Since when do you work here?" Gavi asks immediately and I look up at the ceiling.

"Hmm, about 1 year" I answer and he nods.

"Why do you have an office?" Pedri suddenly asks and I laugh a bit.

"Honey I own this place." I smile and Frenkie's eyes widen.

"Wait, you're 19 and you have your own restaurant?" Gavi asks and looks at Ferran.

"Well, yeah I had to take it over from my dad," I say and part my lips into a thin line.

They all look at me for a second but Frenkie speaks first. "I'm so, sorry." He says and I laugh again.

"He's not dead, just too lazy." Frenkie, and I think all of the others too, exhale deeply as they hear that. "He sometimes works for me, because I have either things to do but mostly I'm here."

"That's so cool," Ferran says.

"Right?" Frenkie asks. I look over at Pedri and smile a bit as we make eye contact, but just like all the times, he looks away.

"Just like your mom" Gavi smiles and turns around to face Pedri. His lips turn into a small smile and I genuinely see him smile for the first time in real life.

"Okay, so when are you done?" Frenkie asks and Gavi starts fidgeting around with his hands.

"Um, in about 20 minutes, why?" I look at the clock over the door and then back at Frenkie.

"He's annoying me the whole time about you," Frenkie says and points at Gavi.

"Oh my god yes. All he talks about is Chelsea here, Chelsea there." Ferran adds in and I look at Gavi while I raise my eyebrows.

"That's so not true." Gavi laughs and hits Frenkie's head.

"Oh, it so is" Ferran adds and I smile as I look at them.

"So what's the proposal?" I ask and Frenkie turns to Gavi and gives him a look.

"Do you wanna hang out with us?" Gavi asks and I hear Pedri scoff. I look at him quickly before looking back at Gavi.

"I don't have time. I'm sorry."

"Even better" Pedri says and walks out of the office again. Frenkie turns to me and smiles.

"He's having mood swings, ignore him."
