ONE SHOT HOT SHOTS

Plus One

Taking over a family diner at the age of 18 is not an ideal for me but i have no choice but to suck it up because of my father George Winters. My old man's fruit of labor.

I'm Ashley Winters, a daddy's girl but definitely not a spoiled brat.

Ever since my mother took off and left us without even a single penny, me and my dad started from scratch.

We own a diner that is now the talk of the town. From managing, waiting tables, accounting. We've been hands on to that.

Ten years of running our diner, my dad got sick and has to reduce work, from cooking, to just paperworks.

Two years after I graduated college, my dad passed away and all i have now is our diner.

Now i own and run it alone. It's hard at first but after my boyfriend's full support, i manage to get through. I live with my boyfriend of three years, Allastaire O'Connell. A 6"4 alpha male, tanned skin, hazel eyes, black wavy hair, well built body and now the chief of police of our town Mystic Falls. I met him in NYU along with his brother Zacahary O'Connell whose three years younger, and now a fireman in uptown New York. Zach's request to be transferred here in our town was approved and he'll be coming home and living with us soon.

Friday night, it's a full blow for my diner so i tend to most of the tables, stand over the register and most of the operations with the use of my roller skates. It's very useful specially for me whose always multitasking. With my height of 5"6, auburn hair, pale skin, brown eyes, plumped lips, People consider me the eye candy at the diner plus perks of being the owner. One by one the customers were leaving so i heave a sigh, another exhausting but eventful day.

"Ashley! Get your pretty ass here!" Leo shouted from the kitchen. He's my Sicilian gay bestfriend whose also the kitchen supervisor of my diner. He's the heir of their chains of hotel and restaurant in Sicily but he went to America to follow his dreams and step out of the shadow of his family.

Ever since i met him I've loved him like my own brother. He's hot, like Enrique Iglesias hot and you won't even consider a guy like him gay. I am grateful for him everyday because he's my strength and he's always there to remind me about everything.

I sashayed my way to the kitchen wearing my all white diner uniform.

"Ash... Don't tell me you forgot?" I looked at him baffled still grasping what he was talking about.

"What?!" He shook his head.

"It's you and your delicious papi's fourth anniversary!" He told me with a 'duh' expression.

"Shit! I need to go Leo. Thanks!" I kissed him on his lips and gather the things i needed for my surprise gift.

"Be careful Ash! Drive safe! Call me tomorrow. I want the juicy details!" He shouted as i fled off chuckling.

I hop on my car immediately then drove off. I reached our building, took the lift and reach our apartment twenty minutes after six. Forty minutes to get ready before Al gets home. I took a shower, put on some light make up, i slip on my robe and prepare the food.

It's almost seven so I rushed through the traffic and pick up my order at Roger's Jewelry Shop. I can't wait to see my Ashley. I drove home and saw a man his back was turned. As i walk my way to the reception he turn around.
