One night was all it took: Season 3 "One second was all it took"

Becca

Becca's eyes grow wide as Natalia rushes toward us. She quickly slides away from the door and steps back. "I'm sorry sweetheart. I didn't know anyone wanted to use the bathroom." She has a glowing smile and does not care that Natalia sounds like a raging bull ready for action. "Come on in and join us."

The door swings open and almost hits me. Natalia stands there looking ready to murder someone. Her eyebrows are lowered and inward. Her eyes are stuck on Becca like she is a pest needing to be handled. "I just need to piss. No harm in that right Lace?"

I swallow and my eyes are wide without me trying. "No problem at all babies. This is Becca..." I hold my hands out and point them in her direction.

Natalia holds out her hand. "Oh. You do not have to say anything else. I've been waiting by that locked door for five minutes." I whip my head in Becca's direction. I knew it! She did lock it! Natalia clears her throat. "Even if Becca is right on the relationship thing. We will prove them all wrong. We are madly in love, and nothing will ever break that."

"She's right!" I smile and slide my hand into hers. Our fingers intertwine and for some odd reason, Becca looks slightly turned on by it. I quickly lean my head on Natalia's shoulder. "Nothing can take us away from each other. I know you are more than likely right Becca, but true love beats anything. Even through struggles, we fight for each other."

Becca gives puppy eyes, and she looks like she could be in love with both of us. "Oh, my God! Ladies! I want what you have! It just doesn't exist anymore." She is waving her arms around like a crazed person and is acting extremely surprised by the fact that we are in love the way we are. She spins around like a cheerleader. "I once had a guy tell me he loved me like that...but he just wanted something from it. I wasn't willing and he left fast."

I turned back around. I lean my shoulder against Natalia. "Yep. If we buy this place, we would be your bosses and you could learn a lot about love from us if you genuinely wanted to. We make it fun working with us too."

Natalia glances over her shoulder and looks toward the bathroom door. "Yeah. But I think they need us back out there. This place is too packed and three missing bartenders and servers are three too many."

Becca quickly spins around and steps toward the door. "Good point!" She opens the door and waves her hand bye while walking away. The flashing lights and loud music invite us back into the smoke-filled atmosphere.

I smile and run my hand against the felt-feeling wall. I never thought I would feel felt on a wall. It reminds me of the small movie theater we have in our town. I have no idea why they chose felt for walls, but they have it and now the short hallway to these bathrooms has it too. It may drive me nuts.

I watch as Natalia stares off into the crowd of people. Her eyelids are half open and her eyebrows are raised. I can see the small nervousness written across her face. "You live in California. You've been to concerts and many clubs, why is this one giving you such bad anxiety?" I ask.

She spins around, slides her hands up my neck to my cheeks, and guides my face close to hers. I am centimeters away from her and can smell the minty fresh smell of her gum. "I have no idea why I am anxiety-ridden. It should not exist inside of me. I have never had any fear of large groups until this past spring. You have something to do with it, but I don't know what yet."

I scoff. I quickly press my lips against hers and pull away. I glance over to the bar. All the bartenders are staring at us as if they have never seen two girls kiss before...or maybe it is because we are working together and usually co-workers do not make out on the job...but we do.

"Let's get back to work people!" I yell and clap my hands like the boss I am supposed to be. I watch as some of them have weird looks on their faces like we should not be kissing. "Yes, we are a couple, and yes, we are your bosses right now. Let us keep our customers happy and make sure we are filling their orders fast enough."
