Lucky Number Seven

Gabriel 78

We walked into the restaurant by the host, for some reason he gave Tyson a dirty look. We went to our table and waited for our waiter. After like fifteen minutes of waiting the last person I ever want serving my food walked up with a notepad and a pen. To say he looked a hot mess was an understatement, if I had to compare him to anybody in the world the only person that came to mind was Shaneneh Jenkins. He had on some blood red pumps, with lime green pants, an orange shirt, the blue apron from his job, his hair a a weird shade of blonde, and he had white eyeliner, he almost could've passed for a girl if he would've shave his mustache. But as usual Raymond thought he was the shit.

"Well looky looky, what do we have here? I see Seven's lil boyfriend with a nigga who got his ass beat by Seven at the party, Seven's ex boyfriend with a nigga who he was bout to kill at Applebee's but wait................." Raymond scanned the entire restaurant. "I don't see Seven in sight at all and my Seven senses ain't going off so that could only mean that Seven ain't here." Raymond said with a smile on his face. "Hi welcome to Rooster's my name is Raymond and I'll be your waiter for this evening."

"Look I don't wanna eat here." Tyson said looking at me and Derrick. "Because if he does something to my food I'll fucking kill him." Tyson said turning to look Raymond full in the face. I was a little shocked because I've never head Tyson get this pissed.

"Oh so you too good to eat at my place of employment, Deezy come're real quick." Raymond yelled to the host, who walked over and stood next to Raymond. "This stuck up nigga thinks he's too good to eat here can you believe that shit?" Raymond asked.

"Man Raymond you better then me because baby, look if this had been the nigga how stole my man, not that any nigga could steal my man. But if he had the audacity to show up to my job with a nigga who I know ain't his nigga, I would be beating his ass all up and down this restaurant." The dude named Deezy said.

"Exactly my point but, you know what I'm do you one better I'ma call my baby daddy Seven and let him know what's going on behind his back." Raymond said pulling out his phone. I looked over at Tyson who looked slightly scared.

"Ayy look put the phone up." Derrick said. "Obviously this is all one big misunderstanding look me and Fabian here don't have any problem with Seven, we too grow to be beefing like we in middle school. Tyson and Gabriel came out to celebrate my birthday with me and Fabian is my boy, but I didn't know that Fabian knew Tyson or Seven. Look just send another waiter over here or I'ma have to tell your manager how unprofessional you're being." Derrick said calmly. I was glad he was able to come up with a lie like that on the spot. Raymond and Deezy looked pissed but they walked away none the less.

"Thanks Derrick." Tyson said quietly.

"No problem, Fabian you aight bro?" Derrick asked.

"Yes, everything is good with me. Tyson you alright?" Fabian asked looking at Tyson.

"I'm fine but I'm still not eating anything from here." Tyson said. As we waited for our food, Seven called my phone.

"Yo what's up, where you at?" Seven asked.

"Aww I'm out eating right now? I'll be there in like an hour." I said.

"Yo I was wondering if you would be cool with me inviting Ty too, well not just Tyson but Jackson and Gino too. We can make it like a group thing." Seven said.

"Seven I..............."

"Gab come on if your uncomfortable with Tyson coming then, I won't go out. You can't be friends with me and not expect to see Tyson, we're a package deal. So I'll ask again best friend in the whole wide world, can I invite Tyson?" Seven said.

"Sure, look I gotta go my food is getting cold." I said.

"Aight see you in a bit." I hung up and Derrick was looking out the window. I could tell he was pissed that I was talking to Seven, but truthfully if he wanted us to get back together then he was going to have to learn to accept Seven. I looked across the table and Tyson pulled his phone out, I knew he was talking to Seven because he started blushing.

"I would love to babe." We finished our meal and was heading out the door as we pasted Raymond, he was on the phone as soon as he saw us he decided to make a big show out of his phone conversation.

"Of course I'll do your hair Tiana, we can gossip, drink tea, we can even have a sleepover." Raymond hurried up and put her on speaker.

"Raymond you are too much, but do you think you could come over tonight, I really need my hair done?" Tiana said.

"I'll be over as soon as I get off work, we have a lot to talk about." Raymond said, shooting us an evil look. I looked out the corner of my eye and I swear I saw Fabian smile. What the fuck was that about.
