The DQ Boy

It was another day at the mall. I had been making my friends go with me for a week now ever since i'd seen the boy working in the food court at DQ.

A week ago today i'd been shopping with my bestie when I saw first saw him. We had gotten tired and hungry so we went to the food court to get some Subway, which was right next to DQ. We were standing in line figuring out what we were going to order when i looked towards DQ and saw this dark haired green eyed boy looking at me. He was wearing a black uniform that showed off his muscles underneath, he looked tall, well taller than me anyhow, he was very attractive if i may say so myself.

We had been staring at each other for a little while now, totally lost in our own world, it looked like he was about to say something when my friend interrupted our little staring contest by saying what she was going to order, which made me look away from the boy and when i went to look back he was gone.

Everyday since i had been coming to the mall for lunch and dragging my friends along but the never seemed to question why i wanted to go there everyday for a week. Each day i went he was never there, and each day my hopes sank a little bit. I had decided that if he wasn't there today that i would give up on it all together. My friends and i were walking towards the food court and with each step i got more and more excited.

As we rounded the corner and DQ came into sight I stared looking for the brown haired boy and was disappointed when i didn't see him. We all sat down at a table and i way trying to hide my disappointment from my friends because i didn't want to tell them about him because they would just make fun of me and how i like a boy i don't even know.

We all started talking about what we were going to eat and everyone ended up picking ice cream from DQ. I volunteered to go get everyones ice cream, I mean he wasn't there right, and i kinda wanted a moment alone, away from all my crazy friends who talk way to much.

As i was walking away from our table and towards the line up for DQ. I didn't see him in front of the counter taking peoples orders. I only noticed him when there was one person between me and him. I started mentally freaking out, is my hair okay? Hows my breath? Is there anything in my teeth? Because you know the first thing people notice about you is you eyes and your smile. But i didn't have time to check any of these things because it was my turn to order.

My heart was racing a mile and minute. He hadn't looked up yet and saw me, i had to clear my throat. When he did i look up surprise flashed across his face, then realization, then he kinda spaced out. I had to wave my had in front of his face and say hello a couple of times before he snapped out of his trance. He slightly blushed.

"Umm, hi." He said to me. I replied to him with a smile on my face and said "Hello." He was even cuter when he was nervous. He had then asked for my order with a lot more confidence which i replied to very slowly so i could be with him a little longer. when i finished tell him my order he said with a playful smirk on his face.

"Wow that a lot of ice cream for one girl" I laughed at that and said "It's not all for me, im ordering for my friends too" he then replied with a laugh "Su-u-ure, whatever you say."

"What you don't believe me!?" I said faking shock.

"it's okay, i like girls with big appetites." He said in a flirty voice. "So whats you name then ice cream girl?"

"Anna, How 'bout yours?"

"Jake" he said sticking out his hand. "Well nice to meet you Jake." "You too Anna" he grinned.

"So Anna... can I have your number? Because i would love to know more about you other than that your name is Anna and you have a big appetite."

"I also have a cat named Cleo" I laughed " And i guess it would be nice to not only know that your name is Jake and you work at Dairy Queen."

He then said "I have a fish named Larry" I Laughed out loud at that. I then saw a pen poking out of his pocket. I leaned over the counter, catching him by surprise and reached into his pocket and grabbed the pen. He then let out his breath that i guess he had been holding in. I laughed at his reaction. "What did you think i was going to do?" i questioned him while grabbing a napkin and writing my cell number on it. He just laughed.

"Well... here you go." Giving him the napkin and picking up the tray with all my friends orders on it then said "and thanks, for the ice cream" then i walked away. On my way back to the table i turned back and said.

"I'll been waiting for the phone call." I grinned, and before i tuned back around i saw him grin back at me and say

"Okay, And i'll be waiting for you to answer."
