Baby puts on 'Let's Go Away For Awhile' by The Beach Boys as he walks into a diner his shades on Phones in Looking ahead Listening to music. He sits in a booth in the pleasant, but not very busy, old school diner. The decor is 50s retro and auto centric. Classic convertibles with happy smiling couples inside are painted everywhere. Baby sees the LA Times on the table. He flips it over so he doesn't have to see the headline featuring 'Robbery'. Baby looks around then out the window outside he sees the Boy from the coffee shop window . He's outside the diner, wearing grey sweats, and still wearing earphones too. he appears to be singing as he Walks into the diner and right into the kitchen. Baby peers through the round glass of the kitchen doors as the boy starts to get changed out of his sweats. Still singing. Baby takes out one ear of his earphones to hear what he's singing. But he can only hear the diner music and a little snatch of his voice when the kitchen doors swing open. He presses record on his hand held recorder he carried everywhere For a brief moment, the planets align and Baby's music, the diner muzak and his singing make glorious union. "B-A-B-Y, Baby." Baby takes off his shades to look more clearly at this angel, but he disappears from view to finish getting changed. Baby stares at the empty space where he just was. Then a voice startled him out of his daydream "What can I get you this fine morning?" Baby looks up in a daze. It's him he's a waiter baby forgets how to speak staring at the angel in front of him "Uh..." He chuckled at babys behavior who was still staring in awe "Don't worry if you need a minute. I got all the time in the world." he gestures to the empty diner. Only one man at the counter and a second bored waitress with round glasses sitting in front of the register messing with it Baby stares at photos on the menu to lost in his thoughts on how he's making a fool of himself. "Y'know that's the kids' menu right?" Baby blushes slightly flipping the menu embarrassed " Uh. Yeah." The waiter laughed it off "Hey don't worry. I get it. It's early. You need Joe to jump start your head?" Baby has a ghost of a smile across his face hearing him laugh he cocked his head to the side and questioned him "Joe?" The waiter gave him a warm smile while saying "Coffee." Baby ripped his gaze off the boy looked at the menu as he says "Uh. No thank you." Waiter smiled teasingly " Did you just get off?" Baby looks up to him confused again "Get off?" Waiter was intrigued by the mysterious good-looking boy he kept going "You just starting your day or did you just get off?" Baby smirks answering "I guess you could say that.." The Waiter smirks at his non-answers. Hearing Baby talk more, he notes his speech patterns are half schoolkid and half stoner. "What do you do?" Baby didn't hesitate to say "I'm a driver." The waiter looks at him raising a eyebrow his smile still gracing his face "Like a show-fer?" Baby looks at him confused "A what?" The waiter thought a second before rewording what he said "You drive around important people?" Baby slightly shrugs looking away the ringing in his ear getting louder "I guess I do." The waiter smiles wider curiosity sparkling in his eyes "That's pretty cool. Is it exciting?" Baby hesitated but nods and says "Yeah." The waiter raised a eyebrow and smirks "Anyone I'd know?" Baby quickly shoots back a small smile to hide dislike in his job "I hope not." The waiter narrowed his eyes at baby trying to figure him out "Well, aren't you mysterious?" He shrugs internally he is captured and choking up he slips out a short reply in a questioning tone " Maybe?" The waiter smiles at his mysterious demeanor "You don't know? Ha! Well do you ever hit the road just for fun?" baby looks down to the table thinking of the last time he did do that he looks back up to the waiter "Not so much anymore." The waiters bubbly personality dwindled slightly looking out the diner window clutching the notepad and pen in his hands "Me neither. Sometimes I'd like to just Drive with some good music in a car I can't afford..and get away." They both take a long pause. They drift off, lose themselves in the idea running away from everything it sounded like tranquility. Baby got lost staring at the waiters perfectly sculpted face. The waiter blushed remembering what he was supposed to be doing. "U-uh Have you decided on anything yet?" baby was so caught up in staring his mouth moved before he could think about what came out. "You are so beautiful." both baby and the waiters face heat up the waiter smiles sweetly at the handsome boy "Oh you just decided that? Well thank you but I'm sure you don't mean it." baby looked back up to catch the waiters beautiful Lapis lazuli colored eyes he spoke this time thinking about what came out of his mouth "I do mean it." he pauses and looks at his name tag and says the name written boldly "Taylor?" the waiter pulls the badge to look at it upside down quickly turning to a joke "Oh sorry. This isn't my badge. I only just started here as a..." he gestures towards his uniform baby smirks lazily "as a Taylor" he chuckles at baby and continues " Yeah, as a 'Taylor' but the name is lance. he smiles at baby charmed at his odd manner. when a yell comes from the kitchen for him. he turns and yells back before turning back to baby "coming hunk! Well, if you have any questions, just holler." Lance winks and turns to walk off Baby stares as he walks off, tapping the backs of diner stools in time with the music as he goes. he sings a snatch of the song he was singing earlier in time with the muzak. "B-A-B-Y, Baby." Baby takes in this image of The Waiter framed within the couples in convertible illustrations that adorn the walls. If only he had a camera... "Lance? Actually i have a question." he turns back to the violet eyed boy head slightly cocked to the side in question "Uh huh?" baby smoothly asked him "What's the name of that song you're singing" Lance smiled brightly.
