"Wait Im on your list" he says with a smile that could make me do anything. This man is really going to be the death of me.

"Yes you are" I say giggling nervously. He shuts the back door, moving the cone we always use to keep it propped. "Wait how long have I been on your list" he asks with a smirk. Why does he want to know? My confidence is wearing thin and these questions are making me sweat. "Oh my gosh Angel. I don't know" I say embarrassed. "Just when did you decide I was on your list" he asks again with a softer smile. "I mean I don't know. Ive just always thought you were cute" I said  looking at him to read his expression. He had the look like he was about to say something arrogant with a smirk but he was cut off by Jenna. I mentally thanked her for this interruption. Im not sure how much longer I could talk about that with him.

"There they are" Jenna said with an evil smile. "Did anyone come in" Angel asks ignoring her statement. "No but you guys were up there for a long time" Jenna says accusingly. "So" says Angel. "We were just talking that's all" I say. "Oh okay" Jenna said. I could tell her and Daisy didn't believe me but I was telling the truth and a part of me wanted her to think we were kissing so I didn't care. Angels phone began to ring. He walked closer to the back to pick it up and I couldn't help but wonder who called. 

"So did y'all kiss" Jenna asks when Angel is out of ears reach. "Yeah girl you can tell us. He's not here and we promise we won't say nothing" Daisy says. "Guys Im serious. We really didn't kiss or anything like that. We really just talked" I say laughing a little. I can't believe they really think I'm lying. "I just think y'all would be cute" Daisy says. "He is cute he just kinda already has a girl" I say. "Lorena? They aren't even together anymore. You know she doesn't like me" Jenna says laughing. Oh so she knows about Lorena. But Lorena doesn't like her? Thats weird. Ive only seen her once while we were changing shifts. She had worked the morning shift and was getting ready to leave when I arrived. I found out she works at wings too but not this one so she must have been just helping out. We didn't say anything to each other that day. Her and Angel were still together and they left pretty soon so I didn't say anything to either of them.

 "Really? Why doesn't she like you" I question her. "Because she thinks I like Angel and she's all extra jealous" she says laughing. Huh. I wonder where Lorena got that idea. "Oh. Wow thats crazy" I say. Angels call ends and we see him walking back up to the front so we stop our conversation. "Marcus called and said I can let two of you go home early since we are slow. I don't care who. Y'all can figure that out" Angel says. I look at Daisy and Jenna who look at each other and then me. "Oh Mia can we go please" Daisy asks. Her and Jenna go on the rant about doing something after work trying to sweet talk me into letting them leave. Little did they know from the moment those words left Angels mouth I had no intention of leaving. "Yes. Yes. Guys go ahead. It's fine really" I say with a smile. 

They both hug and thank me. Angel gets their registers out so they can count their money and clock out. They stocked the soda machine and the little area next to it and cleaned the bathroom real quick before they left so I wouldn't have that much to do. Now Angel and I are finally alone. I wanted to be alone with him but I was nervous considering our last conversation. We were starting to close up and I was cleaning the prepping table while he was cleaning the sauce bowls. "So have you ever dated a Mexican before" Angel asks. "I haven't actually" I say. He looks satisfied with my answer. "Have you ever dated a mixed or black girl before" I ask him. "Not really. Not that I don't like them I just haven't went with one before" he says. Wow really. interesting.

"Were like each others unicorn" I say laughing. "Unicorn?" He says laughing too. "Yeah. You've never been with a mixed girl and Ive never been with a Mexican. So you're like my unicorn because it's new and different" I explain. "Huh. You are my unicorn" he says laughing. "Will you get the filter from the pop machine" he asks. "Yeah just let me wipe the counter first" I reply. "Okay. So how many bodies do you have" he asks. Bodies? Im not some serial killer. What is he talking about? "Bodies" I ask confused. "Like what's your body count" he replies. Still lost. "Whats a body count". "You don't know what that means" he asks now looking confused too. I give him a look that says obviously not. "Like how many people have you fucked".

"Oh uh zero" I say a little embarrassed. I begin to walk away to get the filter because I don't want to hear his reaction. I reach the machine and bend down to pick up the filter. "Your lying. You really haven't fucked anyone" Angel says startling me. Damn he followed me over here. "Im not. It really is zero. I know a sixteen year old virgin. It's embarrassing" I say getting up. "Its not its just most girls have by now so it through me off guard" he said walking behind me back to were we were. "Yeah I know. I just haven't. Whats your body count" I ask him. Not sure If I wanna know the answer but fuck it were doing it. "Ive only been with Lorena" he said. "So you took each others virginities" I press further. "Yeah" he replied.

Wow. What am I even doing. Im never gonna compare to her. They have already been through so much. Why doesn't he want to be with her. He asked me a few more questions like that. Now that it's brought to his attention that he is on my list his question have been so personal but I don't mind cause I ask right back. I also am curious. We finally finishes up and we say our goodbyes.
