Jess' Pov

"MOM!" I scream running down the stairs.

"What now Jess?" My mom answers annoyed.

"Kyle's running around with my-" I start but I'm suddenly cut off.

"Fine have it back, baby." Kyle says handing me back my phone.

"Thank you very much." I huff.

I walk back up to my room and throw my phone on my bed. Now I have to get ready for work. It's Saturday so I work all day. But I don't mind because I love working with my Uncle Charlie and my cousins at his diner.

I put on my uniform and my saddle shoes then walk over to mirror and put my hair up, and put on my necklace and earrings. I walk over to my vanity and put on eye liner and mascara. It's just work, I'm trying to impress anybody.

I skip downstairs looking for Evan to see if he can walk me to work. The diner is right down the street but I hate walking alone.

"Ev!?" I yell into the kitchen.

"Hm" He turns around with his mouth full of muffin.

I chuckle at his immaturity and answer him.

"Can you please walk me to work?"

"Yeah, can I finish my muffin first?" He asks with puppy eyes.

"Whatever, loser." I scoff causing him to run over and put me in a head lock.

"EVAN I CAN'T BREATHE!" I scream and he lets go. I turn around and punch him in the chest.

"Oww!" He cries.

"Oh come on it wasn't even that hard. Now shut up and eat your muffin I have to get to work." He stuffs the rest of his muffin in his mouth. Gross.

"Oa Wats ko!" He says with a full mouth.

"Swallow, and try again." I chuckle.

"Ok, let's go!" He says clearly this time.

We walk outside and Mrs. Lynch is outside watering her flowers. I wait till I get to the end of the driveway to say my hello's.

"Good morning Mrs.Lynch!" I shout so she can hear me.

"Good morning Jessica! And I've been telling you for almost three years now to call me Stormie!" She laughs.

"Sorry, haha. Just the way I was raised." I giggle.

"Well you were raised right then, with manners!" She states.

"Yes ma'am. Well I gotta get going. Have a good day! Tell Rydel I said hi?" I ask.

"Will Do. You have a good day too honey!" She replies.

I wave one last time and run to catch up with Evan who is already half way down the street.

"Wow. Couldn't even wait." I breathe.

"Nope." He said back popping the 'p'.

We continue to walk to the diner and about five minutes later we get there. And see my cousins sitting around doing nothing. I look at the clock, it's 8:30. We open in thirty minutes and it's still a mess from last night.

Normally at night I would clean the tables but I had last night off so my cousins had to. But of course them being 15 and 16 they think it's okay to leave the mess till the morning.

I say goodbye to Evan and thank him for walking with me and scramble to clean up the booths. I walk over to my cousins.

"You know you could get up and do what you're getting paid to do?" I tell them angrily.

"Oh come on Jessie, we're sorry." I cringed at Jessie. Everybody knows I hate hearing that now.

"It's fine. And don't call me Jessie." I say through my clinched teeth and walk back to the front to seat people.
