Three days. It has been three day since you spent the night with Shawn. He promised to come by the diner the next day but he never showed up. By the end of your shift you were basically a nerve-wreck, hoping to find him leaning against his bike outside, but the parking lot was painfully empty.
You don't even have his number. For fuck's sake, you don't even know if he has a phone! These three days just gave you a million opportunities to think about how stupid you were to fall for his games. He probably never thought of you as more than just a one night stand. It even crossed your mind that you might have just been a bet with his stupid friends and you willingly gave his victory to him. Anger, hatred, disappointment and regret fueled your body that night when he failed to show up as promised. You wanted to cry, scream and shout, but at the end you felt like it's just... not worth it.
"Rosie, you know I love you, but I can't keep up with my and your tables as well," you tell your favorite co-worker once you are back in the kitchen and find her sitting on the counter top, scrolling through her phone.
"I'm sorry, but this is just blowing my mind," she tells you, her eyes wide at the screen while you put the dirty dishes into the sink and start rinsing them off, something you always do to make the work of the kitchen staff easier.
"What's so important that you can't do your job?" you ask a little annoyed, but more curious.
"There was a huge scuffle downtown like an hour ago."
"What?" you snap, your stomach immediately dropping. You squeeze yourself up to her side as she scrolls through the short news article. It doesn't say much, only that the police was called because probably two rival gangs had a fight and someone heard a gunshot as well. Two guys were caught, but you know neither of them is Shawn because they would have already made sure everyone in town knows Shawn Mendes was caught.
"Damn it," you mumble, your thoughts racing faster than ever.
You might be hating on the guy, but you definitely don't want him to get hurt. That gunshot makes your stomach churn when you think that the bullet might have ended up in him for all you know.
"What the fuck are you two doing here?" Rob's voice makes both of you jump as he stares at you in disbelief. His mouth in a disapproved grimace under his rather disgusting mustache, his hands on his hips. "I'm not paying you to chit-chat in the kitchen. Get out and do your job!"
Rosie and you rush out, leaving the steamy kitchen behind as you quickly start pretending like you are so busy with work, just until Rob disappears in his office again, not giving a flying fuck about what's going outside.
You take some orders and bring out some drinks before going back to the kitchen to hide behind the fridge. Pressing your back to the wall you slide down and hug your knees to your chest, not able to get Shawn out of your mind. The painful inertia is just killing you, not even knowing where he is and if he is okay.
Your mind leaves your body by the end of your shift. You keep messing the orders up and you can't stop apologizing, but you just couldn't get Shawn off of your mind and you hate him for that. The thought of going to bed seems like heaven to you when you arrive to your house. You slide your key into the lock, but you notice the door is not locked and you freeze.
Can it be that you forgot to lock the door this morning? You were pretty tired, it would make sense, but it's not something that has happened before.
Reaching into your bag you grab your pepper spray, ready to defend yourself against anything that's waiting for you inside. You slowly open the door, walking inside as quiet as possible, holding the spray up as your eyes scan the room. Nothing seems to be odd, Gordon walks out of the bathroom so calmly that he almost convinces you there is no one else in the house, but you're still not sure about that.
