Chapter Four –

After running to my English lit class, which was in a block across town from where I lived I had five minutes to get to work before Tony started chewing on my ass again for being late. I jump on a bus paid for a ticket and sat down next to a women who looked like she was in her 70’s and also smelt very strongly of peppermint and baby oil. I smiled at her, but got nothing in return. I mumble under my breath how someone people could be quite rude and shifted myself to look out the front window.

Pushing the doors of Ritz open and walking under the cold air conditioning to the busy lunch hour, I walked to the door that said ‘employee’s only’ in bold red letters. I pushed it open and came face to face with Jack and Sophia. A smile came on my face when I saw them; they were the people who made this job fun. Gabrio with his sun kissed tan and tussled raven black hair and Sophia the complete opposite to him, with her white blonde hair and pale completion. Gabrio was in his early twenties and Sophia just hit 23 last week.

“Hey guys.” I smile bodily at them while opening my locker to put my bag in and taking out my work clothes.  “You all right?” I ask slipping my shirt over my t-shirt.

“Niña, I am doing fine.” He said in a Spanish accent giving me a wink before saying anything more. “Well I was out last night and I meet a fine boy, I swear he had the ass of an angel.” He was now showing me with hand actions as well.

Sophia rolled her eyes while I laughed. “His been telling everyone that will listen to his ass story”, Sophia said crossing her arms over her chest still looking at him with a little smile playing around her lips.    

“Ah but if you just saw it querida you who die.” He insisted while walking out the locker room shaking his hips.

Sophia and me shared a look then followed him out the door as well whilst tying me hair back into a messy bun, to start our shift. I picked up my pencil and pad; I got into a smiley faced waitress mode and went to go serve my part of the restaurant.

 Tony walked towards me while I was grabbing the drinks that table four had just order.  “Hi Tony, Everything alright?” I ask cheerily with a smile plaster on my face. Tony was my boss he had cameral hair that was greying at the edges and piercing grey eyes, with deep-set wrinkles surrounding them.  

“Hi Elly”, He gave me a weak smile and sighed. “Look there’s going to be a big party coming in about 10 or 11, for a business meeting in a couple of minutes and I was just wondering if –“

I cut him off before he finished the sentence, as I knew what he was going to say. “If I can be the waitress?” I raised my eyebrow and looked at him. “Yeah of course I will.”Patting his shoulder.   

“Oh that would be great if you could do that.” His smile now reaching to his eyes, and I couldn’t help but smile back at him. “They will be here in two minutes okay?” I nodded my head and took the drinks order to number four.

“There you go. If you need anything else just give me a call or ask Sophia over there.” I said pointing Sophia out to them. I check the clock that was hanging for the bar and went to go grab some menu’s for the party that was coming. I picked up 11 and put at them on one of the biggest tables we had.  It was then that the hostess came over to show them to their sits. I took the pencil out of my hair and whipped out my note pad. I put on my full watt smile and was ready to take their order.

I went around them clockwise asking what drinks they would like and what they would like to eat. It was in the middle of taking down the orders, when I got to the guy that was sitting at the top of the table, my heart beat increase and them same sea green eyes where boring into my light hazel ones. It was like what happening on the dance floor all over again. Like there was no one else in the room just us.

“Marcuse”, his name escaped from my lips before I could stop it, a low possessive growl came from somewhere to the right. I turned my head to see what made that noise and came up with a woman who was gorgeous; she had the high cheekbones and the brown hair with blonde highlights in curly waves cascading down her back. She was glaring at me in the fiercest way possible.  

Someone at that moment cleared their throat, snapping away from his eyes and looked at the older woman who was now smiling at me knowingly. I gave her a confused look opening my mouth a few times to ask her, but closed it quickly as I realized how I most look.  I quickly scribbled down their order and told them it would be here as quickly as it could. Power walked away from their table as fast as I could. I got their drink and handed each one out to them, and told them if they needed anything that they should just call.

“Oh we will be calling.” Came a comment from the table, I smirk at that and walked away, hearing a growl and smack from behind me.

“Ouch! What was that for?”

This only made me smile even more. My cheeks were all flushed and I could hardly breathe from the little screen with Marcuse, asked Tony if I could have a five minute break and he agreed but he warned me that it better only be five minutes. I nodded and started walking out the back. I pushed open the door and leaned my back against the wall. I let out a deep breath that I didn’t know I was holding and closed my eyes to gather my thought together. I felt a warm breath of my lips. My eyes sprung open and I let out a little grasp.
