in time // j.g

the banquet

•Ava's POV•

It was Friday. The banquet was today. I had to wear something nice, so I put on my black skater skirt with a fitted white crop top. I waterfall braided my hair, did my makeup, and I was ready to go. I was wearing my black gladiator sandals. I knew I was underdressed for this event, but I wasn't about to put on heels so that I could bring people drinks.

I left a little bit after my mom. Once I got there, a woman named Diana showed me what I was doing. I was serving 3 tables.

This should be easy enough. I thought. I thought wrong.

It was about halfway through the night. I got an order from one table for a red wine. After I had poured it, I put it on the tray and started walking.

Then it happened.

I tripped. someone's foot was right in front of me and I didn't see it. I got up and noticed that I was right in front of someone. A hot someone. A hot someone with red wine all over their white Ralph Lauren button up.

"What the hell?!" he screamed.

"I am SO sorry! Oh my god! Oh-"

he cut me off. "It's whatever."

"Here come with me. I'll help you clean up." I said. I pulled him to the family bathroom.

"you know that it's all on you too, right?" he said laughing. I looked down.

Shit.

I was wearing white. you could see right through to my bra.

"Oh my god!" I screamed while grabbing my chest. "Wow! That's awkward!"

"Well I have basically seen you in your bra and I don't even know your name yet." he chuckled. I laughed along.

"My name is Ava." I said still holding my chest.

"Jack Gilinsky," he said with a sky smile.
