Lexis POV
As I'm waiting for Claire to return with my food Steven appears on the stage. He waves at me and smiles. I wave but don't smile back. I'm guess I'm just not in the mood really.
"Ok and now for our next singer, Michael", said Steven. Michael then walked on stage. He winked at me as he was walking past.
Great just great, I thought. Michael was trying to flirt with me. Should smile back at him, I thought. Nope. I just let him walk past me.
Michael had blonde hair and blue eyes and was very tall. He reminded me of Niall a little. No stop it Lexi, I told myself. You came here to try and NOT think of Niall.
"Well hi everyone my names Michael and.....uhh I guess I'll be singing you guys a song now", he said. Everyone clapped and then he started to sing.
Of course. Wonderful. He started to do a solo version of just give me a reason. The same song Niall and I sang. I really really had to hold back my tears as he sang. To be honest, Michael wasn't that great of a singer either.
Just then Michael started walking over towards me. Oh gosh! He was singing the verse of the song to me. Just as he winked at me again and was about to take my hand in his, I ran away to the bathroom as fast I could. At that point I didn't care what anyone thought I just didn't wanna end up flirting with Michael.
As soon as I found the bathroom in the restaurant I ran into it. I made sure no one was in the bathroom and then I started crying.
I didn't like Michael at all. He seemed like one of those stuck up jocks who always gets the girl. Even though I've never met him before, I just didn't like the impression he gave.
Most of what he did reminded me of Niall. First, he looked a little like Niall. Secondly, he sang just give me a reason which also reminded me of Niall. Could this night get any worse. Hopefully not.
Just then I hear the bathroom door open. I quickly turn around so whoever it was wouldn't know I've been crying. "Lexi is that you?", says a familiar voice. I then realize it's Claire.
Thank. God.
I turn around to reveal my even more so puffy red face. "Oh Lexi it's gonna be ok", she says and pulls me into a tight hug. "Thanks", I say.
As we pull away from our hug I wipe my teary eyes. "Now cmon your food is ready", Claire said. "I'm on my break so I can sit with you again if you'd like", she says. "That'd be great, I really could use some company right now", I say.
I dry my eyes one last time and then we both head out of the bathroom. I find my table and I sit down as Claire pulls up a chair across from me. "So how's the food?", she asks. "Delicious!", I say shoving down my burger that I got. I was really hungry.
I sat there and talked with Claire a little while longer. She was such a kind and genuine person. I think I may have just found one of my true friends. As I finish eating a man walks over and tells
Claire that her break is over and she has to go back to work. "Ok", Claire replies. "I'll be there in a second".
"Are you sure you'll be ok?", Claire asks me. "Yea I feel a tiny bit better now", I say and smile at her. She smiles back. "If you need anything give me a call", she says. "Ha about that, I broke my phone", I said.
"Oh, well do you have a computer?", she asks me. "Yep maybe we could email each other", I say. "Yay perfect!", she says. "Here's my email". Claire takes out her pen and a sheet of paper she uses to write down orders. She wrote down her email on it then handed it to me.
"Thanks", I say. "Anytime", she replies. "Claire!!" "Your break is over we need you to take peoples orders!", we hear a loud voice over in the kitchen. "That's probably my boss I should get going", Claire said. She gives me a quick hug and then I watch her as she hurries into the kitchen.
