BLUSHED

¿..envy..?

As all of you were about to get the check, the waiter slipped a note into your hand, it read:
"My number: xxxxxxxxx - call me"
You smiled to yourself before turning your attention back to the group's conversation. Every once in a while you caught Chris glaring at you from across the table, keeping immense eye contact filled with.. what seemed like fury?

You all got up to leave the restaurant, but you decided to excuse yourself to the bathroom, to try and find the waiter. Once you finally caught sight of him, you softly smiled and walked up to him.

-"Hey, you left me your number?"
-"Yeah, you're single, right?"
-"Of course, I was wondering when your shift ends?"
-"I'm on break right now actually" he said as he leaned a little closer to you, instinctively forcing you to clumsily step back, only to find yourself leaning on the store closet's door. He slowly took your head in his hand and played with your hair while leaning into a passionate kiss. When the kiss separated, you notice a  gun held against the temple of your head.
-"A pathetic, helpless girl like you shouldn't be lurking about restaurants for a guy she knows nothing about"
-"At least I'm not pathetic enough to  overlook my own judgement"You spoke as you pointed a blade to his throat. He could think you were pathetic all he wants, that knife has never failed you and it won't this time either.

-"Indeed, she isn't pathetic enough, you, on the other hand, didn't even bat an eye in my direction,Ethan, that ignorant towards our past opponents, are we now?"a voice said, one you knew a little too well. Chris came up behind the waiter, holding a pistol to his head. Chris beckoned for you to run, and so you do.

-"I would've spared you if it weren't for the fact that you kissed her, really, like come on, shes mine" Chris said when you finally reached the restaurant's exit. He then pulled the trigger, leaving the waiter in pain, blood gushing out of his ear.

As you stepped out of the restaurant you noticed that everyone was gone, and that you'd received a text from Laila.

----------------------Lailachka----------------------

---"broski wtf is taking you so long ?!"
"Whatever im abandoning u and Chris.. idk why you two have disappeared but oki. ill be waiting on your front doorstep 😋"
---"Mkay I'll be there in a moment, you're not actually sitting on my front doorstep, are you?"
---"I am, u have a super nice plant over here and im keeping it company"
---"there's a spare key under my gnome statuette. My hot coacoa stash is on the top shelf "
---"youre so kind broski "

It had become quite chilly outside so you turned on the heater and waited for your car to warm up while you stood outside, enjoying the light breeze that blew through your hair so beautifully. You caught a glimpse of Chris walking out of the restaurant, you took notice of how his gaze turned immediately to you, and you slightly blushed at the memory from when he called you "love" at the restaurant, and the way he suddenly appeared with a gun against a threat's head, he could've just left you to die, if you hadn't had the knife of course, though it couldn't  ever compare to Chris' pistol. You saw Chris walking up to you, cigarette in hand, a mischievous look in his portal-like green eyes.

-"Not even a thank-you?? Y/n I saved your life"
-"I wasn't above using that knife, I had full control of that situation. Thanks though..ish"
-"You did NOT have any control in that situation, his hand was FIRM on your hip, you wouldn't have gotten away in time before he would've shot you if you'd used your knife."  "Only my hand belongs on your hip, by the way."
He added before walking to his motorcycle and driving away toward the highway, leaving you blushed into an UNHEALTHY crimson.
