There is only one happiness in this life, to love and be loved.

I've been waiting this guy for a week and it's kinda bothering me. Not because he ends up getting just a cup of wine, but because he's been looking very upset. It wasn't that hard for me to find out that he got stood up multiple times. I just want to get the courage to ask him if he needs a friend.

I'm Keith Kogane, a 25 year old, working to become a famous novelist, and I'm gay. I graduated college when I was 22 and now working in a fancy restaurant as a stupid waiter.

Now here I am standing in front of a depressed guy, who got stood up for the 5th time this week, and who really needs a friend. I take a deep breath and spoke,

"Do you want more wine?" He shook his head, and I sighed. "Do you mind me sitting down here?" He looked at me confused but then let me sit down. "You've been coming here for about a week or so and I've noticed you're kinda upset all the time. May I ask what happened?" I asked, but I already knew what happened.

"Got stood up once again from my girlfriend because she's busy with work, or that what I think. She always says tomorrow we can have dinner but she always stands me up." He said looking at me. His eyes started getting glossy and I hand him a napkin.

"Maybe you should end things with her." I commented. He looked at me like I was crazy and took out his phone. He showed me a picture of her. She had dark skin and white long hair. She was really pretty, but of course my dick is not attracted to her.

"She's really beautiful, right?! And her personality is amazing!" He said loudly heads turning to us.

"Be more quiet please, this is a public place." I groan. Why did I bother, he's to deep in love. I sighed and looked at him. My god he's handsome. He has tan skin, brown hair, and really beautiful blue eyes. Dammit Keith don't fall for him, I haven't been with someone ever since... him.

"Keith? Keith!" The guy in front of me waved his hand in front of me snapping me back into reality. I looked at him confused.

"Hm... oh sorry. Wait how did you know my name?" I asked, he pointed to my uniform that had my name tag. "Oh... haha sorry." I chuckled awkwardly rubbing the back of my neck. I notice him smile softly and taking his hand out.

"I'm Lance." I smiled and took my hand out.

"I'm Keith, but you already knew that." He chuckled and took his wallet out giving me money and a piece of paper.

"I'll see you around, Keith." He smiled and waved. A small blush crept onto my face and I smile. Shit.
