You had just gotten to Los Angeles, California after a 10 hour flight from your hometown. Jet lag was a bitch, but you were also hungry as all get out. You were in need of a really good burger that included bacon and cheese and tomatoes, and all that yummy stuff. As soon as you had hopped off of the plane, you looked up places near you that had the best food and was relatively decent priced for California. You found that there was a place called Bill's Burgers, and that it was located about two miles from the airport. Eventually, you got a taxi to stop and let you in, taking your destination. Once you got there, you sat down since it was a walk-up shack and a counter. A waitress came to you and handed over a small menu to you, asking you what you would like to drink. Ordering a Fanta Orange, you watched as she walked away. Huh. She seemed pretty nice for a small shack like this in the middle of town. As you look down over the menu, you quickly see an appetizing burger. Grabbing the name of it, you lose the menu, setting it down just as the waitress came with your drink. She asks you if you are ready to order, and you tell her that you would like the chili cheese burger. With a side of fries, chips, and a pickle. As the waitress jots this down, you turn in your stool, you backpack clinging to your torso. It had everything you owned in it, so it was kinda important you didn't lose it. Looking around, you try to see if you can find someone who will know of a good cheap hotel that you could find.
As the waitress goes to tell the cook your order, you spot a head of bright red hair. It seemed to be the only thing that stuck out to you at that moment. Tilting your body to the side a bit, you try and get a good glimpse of the persons face so that maybe you could go up and talk to them once you were done eating. Not noticing how far you had leaned, you fell out of your stool with a loud crash, since the stools were made out of steel and you landed on the concrete. With this, you became super embarrassed and tried to get up and act like nothing had happened. But unfortunately, the man you were trying to look at.. ended up looking your way. He actually ended up rushing over to you and helping you up. As you dusted yourself off, you stood up straight and then went to thank the male. But you hadn't noticed who it was yet. But once you looked up, you froze. He introduced himself to you as Mark. Wait. Mark Tuan? The famous Mark, who you absolutely love with all of your heart, and could never think of choosing someone else? You begin to stutter as you try to apologize and move to sit back down once more. He laughs and it hits your ears, stunning you. Never had you heard anything so amazing. Sure, you had heard it online, but that was different than being face to face with him!
Shaking your head to snap out of your trance, you gave a small smile and then thanked him for helping you out. Dusting yourself off, you put your hand out and then he shakes it. He then starts to bite down on his bottom lip. You really need to start controlling yourself or you may just end up having an anxiety attack from over-stimulation. Taking a deep breath, you turn around just as your waitress is coming to your seat with your food. Before she gets there, you turn to look at Mark, offering him quickly if he would like to sit down with you and eat. You needed to get a chance to redeem yourself and also ask him about hotels, if he knows of any! He accepts your offer and then lets you sit down first, taking a seat beside you. He orders himself a burger and Coke as well when your waitress gives you your food. Before you even start digging into your own burger, Mark steals a fry off of your plate and pops it into his mouth.
As you both are now eating, you turn and look at him. Now was the best possible time to ask about any hotels nearby. So you do. And he mentions that there are quite a few around here, and that there was just one right down the street. He offers to drive you once you two are done eating and you accept his offer. When you are done with your food, you take out your credit card and then call the waitress over to pay for it. As soon as she sees the card, she frowns and tells you that they only accept cash, since it was a small business. You stare up at her in disbelief and then look down. But you only had a card... and there was no ATM nearby. Mark can easily hear this interaction and he steps into it, clearing his throat. Then pulls out a fifty dollar bill to pay for both of your food plates. You object, immediately but he wont have any of that! His demands that you let him pay for it and you end up giving in because he is just so sexy, and.. and.. and he just knew how to take charge! You put your head down like a good modest person would and finally managed to accept the paying, biting on your lip in the meantime.
Once he takes you to the hotel, you say thank you to him and before he goes, he hands you a napkin.. With his phone number on it!! You turn a bright red and thank him, letting him know that you hope you will see him again. You watch him get back in his car and then you immediately take out your phone, sending him a text. "Hey there, Mark! Thank you for all of your help! And for helping me pay for my food. Next time, the lunch is on me!" Slipping your phone back into your pocket, you head into the hotel where you buy your room for a few days and then head up to bed, crashing without even changing your clothes after that 10 hour flight.
