Possessed

Chapter 2

"Wow." Said Jane, sounding quite astonished as we drove through the entrance to Petersville. "Yeah." I added. "It's a lot bigger than I expected."

Petersville was a very well built town.

It had many houses, restaurants, recreational facilities and we had just drove past a park. Hard to believe only 856 people lived here.

"Should we go grab that bite to eat now?" Jane asked as she pulled into the parking lot of a diner.

"Sure." I replied as I stepped out of the car.

I could feel my legs creaking from being in the car so long, so I paced around for a minute to stretch.

"Come on!" Jane shouted impatiently. "I'm starving!" And on that note, she headed straight into the diner.

"Coming....." I whispered as I glanced up at the sign that was hanging above the diner.

It read, 'Darren's Diner.'

"Well, Darren." I said to myself as I walked up the steps to the entrance of the diner. "I sure hope you have burgers." Then I opened the door.

The first thing I saw was a waitress, who was in the middle of serving Jane. As I watched, Jane lifted her gaze from the menu in her hands and smiled at me.

That's when the waitress turned around.

She was blue eyed, with curly blonde hair and a white smile. She was also awfully pretty.

"Mark!" Jane said as she pulled a seat from across the table. "Come and sit down. Shelly was just about to take our orders."

I nodded and strode over to the table, quickly taking a seat.

"So, Mark...." Shelly said, saying my name in a way to let me know she picked up on what my name was. "What can I get for you and Jane?"

I could feel my face going red. Why?

I have no idea.

"Um...." I muttered as I picked up the menu Jane had put down. "I'll get the 'Darren Deal', please."

The 'Darren Deal' consisted of a large burger, with a side of garden salad and hot chips. It sounded delicious.

"Sure thing." Shelly said kindly as she jotted down my order. "And what about you, Jane?"

"I'll have the steak sandwich with garden salad, please." Jane said grinning. "And it would be amazing if we could grab a table water as well."

"No problem!" Said Shelly as she added Jane's order. "Those will be out in about ten minutes."

Then she went to walk away, but stopped to say one last thing.

"It's nice to meet you both." She smiled at Jane, then me, before heading off to the kitchen, I guessed.

I watched her as she skipped away.

There was a small spring in her step. And her butt kind of swayed from left to right as she walked.

Not that I noticed or anything.
