The Girl That No One Noticed...

Chapter 30

                                                   Sang

After my long relaxing bath I found all the guys waiting for me in the living room, they quickly told me of the plan to spend the night at Victor's and I happily agreed, not like I had much of a choice anyway. "Aggele mou would you like to get something to eat first?" Silas asked hopefully, my adorable Greek giant was always hungry, checking the clock I noticed it was getting close to 6 o'clock. "I could eat." I agreed with a smile, after all a fruit cup could only hold a girl over for so long. "Hey, we could try that new restaurant in town." Marc said eagerly, I looked to him with a curious shrug, food was food. 

"Yeah, I heard they have a sundae as big as your head there!" Luke said excitedly. "No, absolutely not. No more sugar!" North growled. "I was going to share it with Cupcake, I'm not that selfish little bro." Luke pouted as I smiled. "Awww, thanks, Luke. North be nice to your brother, we are going to the restaurant and that's final." I scolded, Mr. Broody pants had his jaw hit the floor as he stared at me speechless. "What...I...What?" North stutter spat out. "Trouble I think you broke him." Gabe chuckled as North sent him a glared grunt. "I believe that settles it then, let's go before they get to packed with customers." Axel said grabbing his keys, the other guys quickly followed suit.

 I got to ride with Owen, Sean and Kota, the first was mostly quiet but the other two provided some light conversation which was nice. When Owen pulled up to the restaurant and parked beside the rest of the guys I was quick to hop out, the smells that immediately assaulted my senses had my stomach rumbling instantly, I might have been hungrier than I thought. "Come on, let's eat before your stomach decides to eat itself." Kota chuckled at my side, I mock pouted before giggling and following the guys inside. The place itself was beautiful, if a little small, but I liked it, it was sort of homey, not like I had much experience with that sort of thing. 

We had to wait for the people to put some tables together for all 15 of us before they seated us and I went straight for the menu and turned to the steak, I loved steak. I was studying the prices and size when something particular caught my eye, in fine print at the bottom of the page there was a note that said 'ask us about The Beef-Master'. So when our waiter, a guy who didn't look happy to be there came by, sending us all a glare as he took the guys orders, I asked. "What's The Beef-Master for?" I questioned sweetly, just cause he was in a bad mood didn't necessarily mean he was a bad person. 

"Don't you worry about that scrawny, it isn't for the likes of you." the waiter curled his lip at me in distaste, I take it back the guy was a jerk-wad. Most of the guys were watching our exchange curiously but a few looked like they wanted to kill the waiter, North and Raven in particular, I only hoped the Russian wouldn't start shooting and ruin our meal. "It says here on the menu to ask about it so I do believe I have a right to know." I stated sternly, I wasn't going to be nice if he didn't return the favor. 

"Fine b*tch. The Beef-Master is a giant of a steak, weighs 4.5 pounds, is an inch and a half think and free if you can eat the entire thing." the waiter hissed and a few of my guys growled back at him, easy Russian I eyed Raven silently, shaking my head as he scowled but took his hand from his gun-belt. "Then I'll take The Beef-Master please." I stated as I turned my menu to the disbelieving guy, he stared at it before laughing, I briefly thought of wiping the look off his face with my fist. "A tiny thing like you, I bet you couldn't finish half the thing. In fact instead of just paying for your meal if you can finish the entire steak you can have your whole group meal for free." he chuckled rudely, what was it with the male species always underestimating me? 

"Can I get that in writing?" I quipped as he scribbled it out on paper, Owen and Sean signed with me as witnesses and then the waiter went to retrieve our meals. "Are you sure you can eat all that Ms. Sorenson?" Owen questioned quizzically. "I might be tiny, but my appetite is mighty, especially when it comes to my favorite food." I answered lightly. "But four and a half pounds of steak, are you sure that's safe Pookie, you won't make yourself sick?" Sean asked worriedly. "You'd be surprised what I can do." I smiled cryptically back as the guys shared a look before focusing back on me, I was ready to eat. 

The food took at while to make but when The Beef-Master was finally brought out with the owner of the restaurant who wanted to watch the show I briefly was wondering if this had been a good idea. The steak was huge, but I was hungry, and it looked so good. "Take as long as you want, if you finish The Beef-Master your group meal is free." the kind looking owner said with a soft bow, I smiled at him as I picked up a fork and knife before digging in, the waiter started a timer for record keeping as I ate. The first bite was a burst of flavor and the guys stared at me as I sighed happily at the taste. 

"Well don't go staring at me, eat." I ordered them with the wave of my hand as I cut the steak up into bite size pieces while I chewed, they quickly dug into their own meals with sighs of contentment. I knew the bill would be huge and I also knew that Victor would probably be the one to pay it if I didn't make sure we got it free so I couldn't give up, the guy was already offering me a place to sleep tonight, I didn't need his wallet too. The guys were done eating by the time I had finished a little more than half the steak on my giant of a plate, jerk-wad waiter was looking nervous by his timer.

 I could feel myself getting full but I kept right on eating, before long I was down to the last two bites I popped one in with my fork, took a drink of water then grabbed the last piece with my fingers, swirled it in the last bit of sauce and popped it in my mouth as I licked my fingers clean before swallowing and smirking to the crowd that had gather. The response I got was a chorus of cheers and congrats, a stopped timer that said it took me 59 minutes and 33 seconds to finish the steak and the shocked look of all the guys around me, the waiter the worst since he looked positively green. 

"Well little lady do you think you could stand up so I could shake your hand?" the owner questioned, I nodded to him as I stood, my hand on my full stomach before I stretched my arm out and shook his hand with a soft smile. "Congratulations on a battle well won, your group meal is free as promised." the man said as I pulled my hand back before turning to grin at my guys as the crowd quickly dispersed. "How did you put all that f***ing meat away Trouble?" Gabriel asked in astonishment. "I've learned from past experience how to sort of gorge myself in case food is in short supply, I can put quite a bit away without too much trouble at all." I shrugged honestly as I finished off my drink.

 "And you don't even feel sick?" Sean questioned as he eyed me worriedly. "Not really, it just makes me want to sleep it off, I'll work it off later anyway." I murmured on a yawn, the food coma was wanting to take effect. "I'm not complaining, first time outside of Uncle's I've ever gotten a restaurant meal free." Victor said as he sent a sweet smile my way, curse those fire eyes for making me blush. "I think we should head out before Sang goes lights out." Corey chuckled lightly blushing when the guys gave him a weird look. "Hey be nice to Corey, he might suck at Mario Kart but he's fun." I scolded the guys as I went over and wrapped an arm around the blushing twin, sending him a teasing giggle, he blushed slightly more but chuckled back. 

Oh, the cuteness. "I don't suck at Mario Kart, you're just freakishly good." Corey pouted, scrunching his adorable nose at me, the rest of the guys were giving us funny looks, Raven and North were just scowling as per usual. "Freakishly good is better than freakishly bad." I sung out as I headed for the car, leaving the guys behind me. I got the door open and climbed in, rolling the window down as I buckled up, giving a long yawn. The last thing I heard 'Explain Mario Kart' from Luke before I finally fell into food induced sleep, dreams of a red hat plumber Kart racing playing out in my head.
