I pick up cups from one table, throw them into the basic with the rest, and go to the next table. Same thing everyday. It's a slow day. Not a lot of customers. Cece didn't bother showing up. She says she sick. Bullshit.
The bell on the door frame goes, telling us that someone is here. I look up and see someone i havent seen in forever.
"River!" I smile and walk up to him. "Good to see you." I add. He smiles back. "You too, Em."
Good job Emma! You didn't stutter. I tell myself.
"Can I get you a table?" I ask, motioning to the tables. He shakes his head, his gaze never leaving mine. "No. I just came to see you." The second the words roll off his tongue, I feel my heart skip a beat. "M-me?"
Great....I'm stuttering again...
"Yeah! I was...uh..kinda wondering uh that maybe...um if you would wanna uh...go catch a movie?" He looks at me, nervously. "A date?" I ask. He slowly nods.
Emma. calm yourself! Don't freak out! Play it cool. I scold myself.
"YES!" I say, louder then I meant to. "I mean...Yeah! Sure." I shrug, trying to act cool. River let's out a light chuckle and smiles. "Great! Pick you up tonight at 7." He leans toward me and plants a small kiss on my cheek. My stomach erupts with butterflies and I feel my cheeks heat up. "Bye." He whispers to me and walks out, leaving me with a huge smile on my face.
River Daniels just asked me out. The guy I've been crushing on since I started working here, months ago. This was the perfect day for Cece to call in 'sink'. If she was here, she would flirt him up and not even let me near him, like any other day. That girl is the biggest hoe on earth.
I continue to clean up all the tables, with a smile playing on my lips.

I skip inside my house, smiling still. Mum sees me from the kitchen and raises her eyebrow. Her light brown hair pulled into a ponytail and she has on a jumper with sweatpants. I guess she didn't go to the office today.
"Why are you in such a good mood?" She asks, looking at me. I shrug and skip into the kitchen, humming a love song. "What? Can't a girl just be happy? Like, how happy I am to have such an amazing Mum like you! And how you treat me soooo well, and you love me so much!" I grab a pear from the counter and kiss her cheek. "Love you Mum!" I say and make a quick dash upstairs.
I run into my room and shut the door. I swing open my closet doors, I look at all my cloths.
"No. No. Too ugly. To sparky. To boring. To baggy. To tight. When did I even buy this?!?! UGH!! I need Cassy." I talk to myself, going through my closet. Yes, I talk to myself. Don't judge me. I know you do it too!
I grab phone from the dresser and Dial Cassy. It rings about three times before she picks up. "Hello?" Her voice ring through the phone. I smile huge. "Cass! It's Em! I need your help. Now." I here her let out a sigh. "Em, I'm looking for a job right now. I can't." She tells me.
"It's code red."
*Beep Beep Beep*
She hung up. Ugh. Great. When I need her most, she's busy. Just great.
The door flies open and I see Cassy standing in the doorway, breathing heavily. "I...came...as fast...as I could." She pants. My eyes grew huge. Cass lives a few houses down, so she isn't very far. "Alright," She finally caught her breath. "what's going on?"
I laugh and shake my head. "No really! You said code red, so I came as fast as I could." She put's her hands on her hips, and looks at me. "Now spit it out."
I tell her everything. How he asked me, the kiss on the cheek, even what shirt he was wearing, which by the way was a grey T that looked so hot on him. I tell her I need her help picking out an outfit.
"AWH! It's about time he asked you out! He's liked you for like...FOREVER!" Cass shrieked. "He has?" I raise my eyebrow at her.
"Uhm...Yeah."
"How do you know?"
"He might have told me..."
"WHAT!? When?!"
"Like, a 2 months ago."
I want to slap her so bad. River has liked for awhile and I was never told. Cass knew, and she never told me. Is it wrong I want to kill her?
"And you didn't tell me because?" I narrow my eyes at her. "He told me not to tell you!" She put her hands up, acting innocent. "Well...doesn't matter! He asked me out, and I need to get ready. He's gonna be here at 7, and it's..." I look at my alarm clock.
3:45.
"I have three hours. That isn't enough time!" I say, panic mode kicking in. "Calm yourself. Let's start."
