Sabrina Carpenter imagines (gxg)

Dumbass💔

Y/n's pov

I arrived at work 5 minutes late, squeezing my eyes shut for a second in embarrassment as I sat down at the table for our team meeting. I worked at a restaurant downtown, as a waiter. It was decent pay, and I liked most of my colleagues. Most, that is. The only person I didn't like was Sabrina, in other words the devil. She always found a way to critique me, no matter what I was doing. I was apparently always 'cleaning the water glasses wrong,' or 'not delivering food to tables fast enough'. It was exhausting, although she hated me for some reason. I have no idea why, I was usually a pretty likable person. Every day, she would come up to me and tell me I was doing something wrong. It was annoying, but I'm used to it by now.

As I took my seat I felt her eyes glaring into my soul, as usual of course. I glance at her and roll my eyes a bit. "As I was saying..." The manager interrupts our eye banter by giving me a look. I sit up straight and looked over at him, paying attention now. "Tonight we have our special party, and they asked me to make sure all the waiters look presentable and formal. Boys, you'll be wearing suits and ties, and girls you'll be wearing white shirts and ties with black pants. It's just for tonight because this is our special party, okay?" We all collectively agree and go off to set up before opening. I help Olivia hang up lights around the stage for our live music, and Conan dances around, pretending to be Taylor Swift. "Conan, I hate to break it to you, but we are never going to the Eras tour." I say, stepping down from the ladder and looking at my work.

He groans and I stumble into someone behind me, quickly catching them. I roll my eyes internally as I realize it's Sabrina and I pull her back up, my face now portraying a frown. "Why were you standing right behind me?" I ask as she crosses her arms over her chest. "I wasn't until you jumped off the ladder, dumbass." I actually rolled my eyes this time, as she called me her favorite nickname. Dumbass, I swear I've never heard it with more venom then anyone else. 

"Alright then, my bad your highness." I spat back, making sure to add some extra attitude in the statement. She groans and turns away, going back to the bar and cleaning glasses. God, why does she just love picking on me? I feel someone tap me on the shoulder and turn around to see Olivia with a face like she's trying to hold in a laugh. "What is it?" I ask, confused. "C'mon, you don't see it?" She asks, giggling as Conan keeps dancing. See what? What is she talking about? "She lies you, Y/n! Can't you see, are you blind or something?" I blink a few times and then laugh at the ridiculous statement. "What the hell Liv? No, why would she like me? She hates me, and I hate her too, you know this." She just gives me a look and a little wiggle of her eyebrows and walks back over to Conan. I stand there, dumbfounded. She though Sabrina liked me? She hates me! She'd kill me if she wasn't like, a foot shorter than me. Also, even if she did, that would suck, because I would never like her back. The only good thing about her was maybe her hair, it looked super soft. And... I guess her eyes were pretty, and her lips looked super kissable... no, Y/n, no! What are you thinking right now? You can't think of your arch-enemy like this! 

I shook it off and went to go find another job before the party started, which would be soon enough.

I was sitting in a small room behind the stage trying to tie my tie, although it was not going as planned. I may have forgotten that I had no idea how to do this, and that was a problem. I was struggling, and it was showing on my features. The last thing I needed right now was a certain someone walking in and annoying me, although that is exactly what happened. "Y/n? What the hell are you doing, the party starts in 5 minutes!" Sabrina snaps at me, making me turn around and shake my head. "Uh... Nothing, I'll be out in a second." She sees my absolutely revolting knot and sighs, stepping closer. "You don't know how to do this, huh?" She says, bringing her hands up to my collar and undoing the knot. I feel a blush creep slightly onto my cheeks and shake my head again. "No, nobody ever taught me." She chuckled a bit while tying it with certainty and success. I couldn't describe the odd feeling in my stomach with her hands on me, or the flush of my cheeks. I brushed it off as the nerves for tonight as she tugged at it, finishing. 

"There, looks good. You look good, I mean." She says, making the blush on my cheeks darken. What the hell was happening to me? Why was she being nice? Why was I acting like this? "Right, thanks. So do you, by the way." I said, looking her over. She was wearing the same thing as me although a bit crisper and clean. "Thanks. Now, c'mon, you almost made us both late." She said, her old personality back finally. I nod and walk out behind her, a bit surprised at myself for holding back any snarky comments.

As the party goes on I find my eyes drifting over to Sabrina a lot more then usual. I notice how her outfit hugs her slim body and accents her curves. There was one point back in the kitchen where she bumped into me and then she blushed, and it was really cute. I have no idea what's happening with me, I'm supposed to hate her, and she's supposed to hate me. 

I groan as I walk back into the kitchen for the zillionth time, although this time I gat to sit down for a few minutes as Olivia and Conan handle the guests for a bit. I lean up against the counter and close my eyes, taking a breath. "Hey." Sabrina says, hopping up on the counter next to me. She looks like she's trying to hold back a smile, although in a good way. "Hi." I say, looking over at her and turning my body a bit. "Taking a break?" she asks and I nod. I decided to be kind to her, as she was being to me. For some reason. "Cool, me too. Uh... I was wondering... this might be a bit of an odd question but, would you happen to be single?" I blinked, my heart stopping for a second. "Uh-uh... yeah, yeah I am. Is there a reason you're asking?" I question, not sure why I'm flustered. She blushes and looks down, seemingly a bit embarrassed. "Yeah, uh... there's a girl out there who asked me to ask me, so... yeah." I smiled, knowing that this was a lie, but playing along. 

"Oh? And would this girl happen to be cute?" I asked teasingly. She catches my drift and giggles a bit. "She thinks she is, but she's wondering what you think." it's my turn to blush now, although I trek on. "Yeah? And would this girl happen to be 5 feet tall, blonde, and blue eyes?" I asked, feeling a bit more confident. She chuckled and nodded. "Yes, yes she would be. She also is... really bad at showing love, so consider that before asking another question." I grin now, feeling happy. "Oh really? Does she also seem to critique me every day? Would there be a reason for that?" She blushes a deeper shade of red now. "yeah, maybe she just needs reasons to talk to you." She said, making my brain short circuit.

She looked up at me, a playful smirk playing across her lips.

"So, you gonna kiss her or not?"

I lean in, quickly capturing her lips in a kiss, thinking I made a mistake as she freezes. But, those thoughts stop as she melts into it, wrapping her arms around my neck. I grin into it and wrap my arms around her waist as her fingers run through my hair. I pull away for air and press our foreheads together. "This girl seems like she needs some love from the right person, huh?" I ask, making her giggle. 

"Yeah, yeah she does."
