Two of A Kind *ON HOLD*

Chapter 4

Minutes later I came back with the food.
Dustin groaned, "Pitt stop hitting on my friends."

I rolled my eyes, "Chill, just bringing the food."

After I gave the food I said my line, "Is there anything else?"

"No, everything is just fine." That guy spoke again.

One of the boys laughed and spoke, "I want something! Turn around and bend over." He cackled and they erupted in laughter.

I growled, "Pigs." Turning I stomped away to the kitchen.

I went back a minute later to give them their check assuming they didn't want anything else and my heart sank, they were gone.

I wanted to cry, when people dine and run the waiter has to pay for their food and I already have such a low salary already.

I sat down in the booth they had previously been in and held my was in my hands. In the brink of tears I felt a tap on my shoulder, it was him.

I jumped, "I thought y'all left."

He shrugged, "Yeah but... I have manners and one of them is not to let girls cry."

I sucked air, " I wasn't crying! "

He laughed, "And another is to pay for my own meals, how much was it?"

I pulled out the check, " $29.89"

He gave me his card and I went to scan it when I came back I returned it and I thanked him.
"No need to thank me, let me have your number and I'll call it even."

I laughed, "Funny."

" Please? "

"I don't even know your name."

"Mark" He pushed. I mentally facepalmed. If course, the hot guy had a hot name.

"Clarissa!"

" Susie? " What is she doing here?!

Susan walked into the diner with Kenny and Rose in hand, "Today is Martin Luther king Jr Day" she reminded me, " No school. I'm sorry, I tried to take care of them longer but I have to go to my daughters house in Kenner. "

"It's fine Susie, I just forgot."

" Okay-" she noticed Mark, "Hello there, did I interrupt something?"

" No ma'am, we were just about to exchange numbers. That's all. "

I turned wide eyed and so did Susan, "Wellll I best be going then." Then Susan left. She left me. Alone.

He rocked on his heels in the awkward silence, " Are those your siblings? "

I got my lip, "Um..." What do I do???

"Yes." I said flatly. I instantly regretted it.

I sighed. Gotta go! Gotta go! "Well I guess should get back to work. "

"Number?" He asked.

I thought, "Maybe next time Mark."

He laughed, " Next time? As in next time I see you or when I ask you in a date tomorrow night? "

My breath hitched, " What? "

" Would you like to go to the movies tomorrow with me? I hope you like Kevin Hart. " he grinned.

I sighed, " I'm a little busy-"

"I can babysit!" I turned and saw Susan from the door, she she came back.

" Susie-"

" NOPE. Listen to me you will go with this nice man to see the sexiest actor/comedian in the movie you two are going to watch AND YOU ARE going to have the BEST NIGHT OF YOU LIFE. "

"Susie-"

"And" she wiggled her eyebrows, " the kids can even spend the night at my place if you two want to have A LOT of fun. "

My face turned red, " Susan! "

Mark laughed, " I get that you don't get out often. "

My face for even redder, " Well- I guess-" I caved,"fiiine. "

He smiled and handed me a slip of paper that had his number, " I'll pick you up at 7. "
