“ Don’t pick your nose in front of the customers” Louis blushes and holds his head down looking at his lap. It’s not that he was picking his nose in front of the people inside the restaurant, his back was turned so technically he still had some manners.
His aunt stares at him as a puff of smoke exits her mouth. She was the only family left for Louis. Louis was orphaned at a young age, both his parents died in a car crash when he was fourteen, and his aunt had taken care of him. She always made sure that Louis would be the best in what he does and she wants Louis to be able to stand on his own as she would say “You need to fend for yourself when I will be gone” and to which Louis would reply “Why, are you going somewhere?”
“Table 9, get the guy out of here, he didn’t buy anything.” his aunt said gripping his shoulders hard. She exhales the smoke from her cigarette directly at Louis’ face. You keep doing that and I will be the one to end up with cancer.
“Why is he here? Its not like we have Wi-Fi connection. We don’t even have a nice ambience”
“Just get him out” Louis nodded and made his way to the table where a young man sat fiddling with his phone. The young man looks at Louis and Louis swoons.
Fuck, the guy was gorgeous.
He had raven black hair styled in a quiff and he was wearing glasses. He looked like one of those artsy guys at his school. Louis blushes and bites his lips. He unconsciously tucks his hair behind his ear and giggles like a girl. He feels like a teenager with a crush.
“ Good morning sir” Louis flutters his lashes and the man smiles. “What do you like to order?” He says in a flirty tone and angles his body so his curves were in full display. He knows he’s got a nice body and there is this cute guy so why not flaunt it.
“I would like to order you” The man said, and fuck, if his face was breath taking, his voice was fucking honey dripping, laced with caramel. Louis wants to faint and fall into the man’s arms.
Louis giggles again. “Take out sir?” he bites his lips and hopes he looks good doing it. The man laughs and Louis could faint at the sound of that. “Actually, I was stood up. I have a date but it seems she won’t be coming” he says as he adjusts his glass. He looks at his phone again and sighs. What kind of girl would stand up such a handsome guy? Louis would never stand him up. “When do you get off?” He asks Louis.
“Me? Why?” Louis asks, brows furrowing. It’s not every day that you get gorgeous guys asking you out. The man starts to say something but Louis cuts him off. “I get off at 3” he might as well make the best of it.
“Okay” The man smiles and stands up. He waves at Louis and exits the restaurant.
Louis clutches the tray in his hands and squeals making the people look at him. He coughs and makes his way to his aunt.
His aunt pinches his bum. “He didn’t buy anything”
“But he’s got my heart’ Louis says dreamily and his aunt smacks him.

Louis unties his apron and says his goodbye to his aunt. He kisses her on the cheeks before she shoos him out. He stops by the car and looks at the mirror and sees such a plain face. Average, that’s what he is. Dull blue eyes, plain nose, thin lips. Gahh. He was nothing special. No one would even take a second look at him. He envies all those beautiful people who had people all over them. Sucks. Why wasn’t he attractive, if he was, he’d actually have a boyfriend by now. Wonder if Mr. Smoulder likes him. Louis giggles to himself and he cant wait to see him again.
