Chapter 5: Maggie's POV

I gave Garfield the piece of paper with my last table's orders. He nodded at me in thanks as I walked over towards Tara.

"One of guys at my table gave me their number", smiled Tara. "He was sure a cutie."

"You going to call him", I asked. I wanted to tell her about one of the girls at table 5. How she looked alot like me.

"I guess. Yea why not", said Tara. I shrugged. Before I could tell Tara about what happened, Tara left the back from the kitchen. I guess she wanted to flirt some more with the hockey players before they left. I decided to walk back to my last table asking them if they needed any refills.

Emma, the blonde haired one that looked like me, asked me to sit with them. I did.

"Say, would you ever go to London, like lets just say you just won a free trip there like today?", asked the guy with the hat.

"Oh yes, in a heart beat," I said.

"Well now is your lucky day or should I say lucky night," said Emma turning her body my direction.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean you would rather be in London and I would rather be living your life". I gave her the confused look. I had no clue where she was going at with this.

"Tomorrow you go back to London where I live and pretend to be me while I stay here in Washington D.C and pretend to be you. In a couple of weeks we switch places and no one has to know".

She had to be kidding. I began to laugh. She has to be joking.

"Funny funny," I said, " Are you guys always funny in Britain?" When none of them were laughing I knew they meant every word about switching places with each other.

"You're serious, aren't you".

"I would pay you in return for pretending to be me. You would get a free shopping spree and have my two friends here to help you to pretend to be me. All I need is for you to tell me everything about you and give me one friend who knows everything about you and can keep our secret a secret and help me. What do you say?"

I couldn't believe it. They were actually serious. I could go to jail if this blondie was actually royalty and I got caught pretending to be her. Plus I was never the one to lie.

"I say you have been drinking too much diet coke". With that I got up and told them I would be back with their pizza. Now that is probably the most crazy table I had ever served.

As I walked back into the kitchen, Garfield had their pizza done.

"Thanks", I muttered as I picked it up. Don't worry It's only your last table for the night than you can sleep and won't have to see those crazies again. Like they said, they were only here for a few days.

I walked back towards their table. They all had seemed like they were whispering something. As soon as they saw me, they quit whispering.

"Your veggie pizza", I said placing the pizza in the middle of the table. "I will be right back with some plates and silverware for your pizza." But before I could leave, the blonde girl asked me to stay.

"Wait," she protested. I turned around facing her. Great more crazy talk.

"We just want to apologize how that conversation went," She said. "I'm sure you think we are crazy and I should have never talked to you like that. We did just meet".

"It's all good", I said trying to make her feel better. "I'm sorry about saying the um whole diet coke thing. You know that you guys were drinking too much".

"Oh no apologies, but would you be interested in meeting us after work and get some icecream with us? It's on me as an apology for how I acted".

"I would but I can't".

"But please I must do something in return. That's how we British people are. We must repay someone back for our apology". They wouldn't give up. I kept telling her it was okay but she still refused my answer of no thanks. So finally I agreed to go out for icecream with them after work. After all they were my last table. Her friends and her seemed very happy when I finally said,

"Oh alright. Guess a little of icecream won't do any harm".

With that they finished their pizza and asked for their check. I got them their check. Before the left, they asked me to meet them at Dairy queen, which was downtown too thankfully. They told me they would give me a ride home so I told Tara no need to wait for me. After they left, leaving me a big tip gosh such generous and crazy people, I helped clean up, changed my shirt into a hollister sweatshirt, than clocked out of work.
