3 times. 3 times that night the new chef Macy or whatever her name was got my orders wrong, it wasn't obvious though, it was little things like crab in the risotto rather than lobster, or undercooked pasta. I was about to go collect an order when Demi stopped me
"Shane, cover Sels orders." She said as he just nodded and she walked me to her office and closed the door behind me.
"What's up with you tonight Sel?" She asked, I could see how tired she was.
"There's nothing wrong with me." I spat a little more bitterly than I intended too.
"You're messing up all of your orders and a customer just complained about their 'sour faced waitress'." Demi said as she sat on her desk.
"I'm only sour faced because I'm being set up." I sighed exasperatedly.
"Sel, set up by who everyone in this restaurant loves you." Demi asked puzzled.
"That new girl Macy doesn't seem to, the only reason I'm pissy is because she's messing up my orders, but only mine." I pointed out.
"She's been here a day, she's bound to be a little over whelmed, you know how fast paced this is. I doubt it's a vendetta against you." Demi said smiling at me.
"Maybe, but she needs to get her shit together, I did." I said, still not buying it, if she was good enough to get the job, surely she should be able to actually do it? But I wasn't gonna push it, I could see Demi was stressed.
"Just get back out there, and don't make me regret hiring you Sel." Demi said warmly.
"Ouch." I groaned as I stormed back out onto the floor, the fact that Demi was mad at me was absolutely infuriating. I heard her call after me but I just kept walking, after all she wanted me to do my job.
The rest of the night ran fairly smoothly and I decided to take my break early and have Shane cover my shift while Tori's dad fixed the faulty toilet. I walked into the break room and got my phone out of my locker to see this Macy girl had been added to the work's group chat. As if I hadn't had enough of her, she walked into the break room and groaned at me as she sat on the table, where I sat on the other side.
"So.. Struggling with your first day huh?" I asked fine well knowing the answer.
"I'm doing fine thank you, you seem to be the one having a little trouble." She shot back.
"I'm not the one fucking up my orders." I smirked sarcastically.
"I'm going off your tickets, maybe listen to your customers a little better?" Macy questioned as she typed on her phone not even looking at me.
"Look, I've been nothing but nice to you, what is your problem?" I asked, losing it a little.
"Like you don't already know, just do your job and stay out of my way Gomez." She spat as she stormed out.
Gomez? How did she know my last name? I still didn't know where I knew her from so I decided to snoop on her facebook and her cover photo is what made me realize.
It was a photo of her and Taylor, my ex of all people. Taylor layed on her back kissing her cheek. That's why she hates me? Because I'm Taylor's ex.
I did the rest of my shift with no problems and decided to hang around and clean up once everyone, including Macy left, not without shooting me daggers of course.
"Oh Sel what are you still doing here?" Demi asked surprised as I appeared at her office door where she was sat with a cup of coffee and papers everywhere.
"I know why she hates me." I said as I slumped down in the chair where I was interviewed a month ago.
"Selena, not this again pleas-" Demi started before I cut her off.
"She's dating Taylor, you know my ex that cheated on me." I said as I showed her a photo.
"It's that Taylor?" Demi asked surprised.
"Yeah, I don't know what Taylor told her but she seems to hate me for it, that's why she's making me look bad."
"Fuck, I'll talk to her tomorrow, this isn't high school, this is my business and I'm not gonna let her school girl drama run it into the ground, whether she's a good cook or not." Demi said angrily.
"I'm sorry for doubting you Selena, I'm just so stressed out right now, and I thought you were just having a bad day or something." Demi apologised.
"Don't worry about it Dem honestly. I shouldn't have snapped the way I did, I just didn't realize who she was." I said sincerely.
"It doesn't make sense to me though, like you didn't do anything to her, just because y'all have the same ex." Demi spoke befuddled.
"I don't know man, but it's nearly midnight I'm gonna head out." I smiled as I stood up, expecting Demi to come with me considering the time.
"You comin?" I asked as I stood beside her door.
"I got some shit to do here, I'm gonna be here a couple more hours." Demi said with a weak smile.
"I'll stay then." I smiled as I sat back down.
"Sel you don't have to do that, you have a class tomorrow." She reminded me.
"I don't care, I want to stay." I said.
"You're not gonna leave till I do are you?" Demi smirked as she looked at me making me grin.
"You know me too well De La Garza." I giggled.
"How about this then, I pack all this up, and we both go to my house and you can help me and I'll give you a ride to your class tomorrow?" Demi proposed, another night with her? I wouldn't complain.
"Sounds like a plan Boss Lady." I said as I stood up.
Demi packed up everything she needed and I took her bag from her which she appreciated.
"Can I drive your car? You look exhausted Dem and I don't wanna die." I giggled as she tossed me her keys.
"You crash my baby and you're dead." Demi fake glared as we got in and I passed her my phone.
"Duh, text Tori for me and tell her I'm not coming home tonight please?" I asked as I started driving listening to her directions.
The drive to her house was relatively quiet and when we got there I looked to see a text back from Tori, curious as to what Demi wrote.
Me: Hey Tor, I'm not gonna be home tonight the boss is taking me back to her house, who knows when I'll be back ;)
I was gonna kill her, oh, my, God.
Tori: Oh Girl you get some!!
I knew Demi will have seen that, safe to say I was embarrassed, but I couldn't help but laugh at Demi.
"You had fun messaging Tori huh?" I said as I leaned over her kitchen counter.
"What can I say, I like to tease." Demi winked with her tongue out of her mouth.
This was gonna be a fun night....
