Relationships are fun. Whether it's a friendship or more, they're fun. Having one of the people you care about, right by your side, through thick and thin.
That's how Maxine saw relationships anyway. She liked simple things. She appreciated them. That's why she loved her boyfriend, Lucas, so much.
He always knew just what to say and do. That's what made him so loveable and amazing in her eyes. He was perfect. And she honestly thought he was going to propose.
Silly her.
Walking down the busy streets of downtown Hawkins, hand in hand with Lucas, Max smiled and sighed deeply. This was her life. The perfect boyfriend, with the perfect job, in a perfect city! What could be better?
The couple had decided on having a cute lunch date in this cafe near Lucas' apartment. It was called "Allons Les Lesbiennes!" Neither of them knew what it meant but they knew it was in French.
Coming upon the cafe Max's eyed widened in surprise. She had never been there so she was surprised to find that there we no men in the cafe. All women. Even the employees were females.
"Um...let's get a table...?" Lucas said, a bit unsure of himself. He felt awkward. A couple of women looked at him and started whispering among themselves.
This would be an interesting lunch date.

"Jane, can't you just hold it? We're almost there." Mike whined to his girlfriend who was looking around desperately.
"No, Mike! I can't hold it! I have to pee and I have to pee now!" Jane answered, somewhat aggressively. She always had a small bladder.
Jane and Mike had decided to go on a walk and see the sights of downtown, maybe get some lunch. But Jane just had to down a bunch of water before they left because she needed to "keep her complexion perfect by drinking a lot of water."
Finally, the brunette spotted a cafe and smiled with delight. "YES! A bathroom!" Quickly, with no warning, the 25-year-old woman ran down the street, not even thinking about what cafe she was running into.
Mike ran after her but stopped to look at the cafe she ran into. The man blushed beet red as he read the name, "'Allons Les Lesbiennes'!?" Mike said out loud. Taking French in high school really paid off.
Groaning, Mike begrudgingly walked inside the cafe, mentally chastising Jane.

"I don't get the puns on the me-" Max didn't get to finish her sentence as someone burst through the cafe door and ran past her at lightning speed, "MC-SCUSE ME, COMING THROUGH!" the girl yelled. The red-head didn't even get a good look at her due to how fast she was going.
Not a second later, another person ran in. It was a man who seemed to be around their age with hazel eyes, curly black hair and freckles splattered across his cheeks and nose.
He walked up to their table, slightly panting. 'He probably didn't get any exercise as a child.' Max thought as she looked at his skinny physique.
"Um, did a girl just run in here real quick?" he asked. Max and Lucas exchanged glances, "Yeah, she ran back there. The bathroom I think?" Max answered.
He nodded, said a small thank you, and proceeded to walk up to the counter to take an order.
"That was weird," Lucas said bluntly as he continued to look at the menu, "Now what were you saying about the menu?" Max blinked, "Oh yeah. I don't understand the menus puns. 'Try our new scissoring strawberry sponge cake!' What's the scissor thing mean??"
The man who had run in was walking past them when he heard Max talking, "Wait, do you guys not know what type of cafe this is?"

Jane sighed happily as she washed her hands and fixed her hair and clothes. "I have got to stop drinking so much water at one time," she mumbled to herself. Walking out of the bathroom, she spotted Mike talking to a couple.
She could only see the man's face. He had mocha skin, dark brown eyes, and broad shoulders. Across from him sat a girl with long red hair going down her back. Before she could walk over and fetch Mike, she heard the girl let out a small scream and quickly got up, grabbed the mocha man and left.
"What the hell did you say to them?" Jane asked as she watched the couple leave. "I told them what type of cafe this was." Mike felt a bit guilty for ruining their obvious lunch date, "I'm gonna give them this strawberry sponge cake." he said determinedly.
"Uh, okay? I'm gonna order some food, you want anything-?" without giving Jane an answer, Mike quickly ran after the couple. "And you're gone." Jane rolled her eyes playfully at her boyfriend's antics.
She bought more strawberry sponge cake and a milkshake that was apparently supposed to taste like eggos. She'll be the judge of that.
As Jane sipped her milkshake (which indeed, tasted like eggos), she thought about what Mike said before running after the couple, "What type of cafe is this place??" she asked herself. Quickly, she whipped out her phone and typed in the name.
*
Mike walked back to "Allons Les Lesbiennes" pleased with himself. The girl, Max, was beet red when he told her what type of cafe it was. He apologized to them and gave them the sponge cake.
Lucas didn't really want to take it but Mike insisted. Max smiled as she looked at it. It did look really good and she was gonna order it anyway.
The day went away quickly. Lucas kissed Max goodnight as he dropped her off at her apartment. She sighed happily as she stepped out onto her balcony, looking at the beautiful city.
Life was good. Everything was just good. She reached into her bag and pulled out the sponge cake. Taking one bite of it made her happy, "Damn, this is really good." she smiled, "I have to go back there for this again soon."
Max looked up at the moon in complete happiness. Not knowing that a brunette was looking at that same moon while eating strawberry sponge cake.

I hope you all enjoyed the very first chapter of "Elegantly Wasted"! It took me forever to write this chapter and I was struggling a bit, but the outcome is amazing!
I will try to do regular updates considering this is the only 'book' that I have up right now. School ends in about a month for me so WOOP WOOP! MORE UPDATES!
If you can tell me what "Allons Les Lesbiennes" means in English, you'll get this chapter dedicated to you ;)
Don't forget to leave a vote and comment! I love reading your comments, guys, they are absolutely hilarious and motivate me to write!
