"Were you going to eat lunch? We are at the Dino Cafe after all." I look at her confused at first but then realized what she was saying, but nodded slowly after. "Let's get you seated then!" Kendall offers an actual genuine smile, and she heads into the Dino Cafe, gesturing me to come in too.

ALICEN'S POV
As I was seated by Kendall into the Dino Cafe, I couldn't help but look around into the Dino Cafe. Not gonna lie, the design was so cute!
As I was seated down, they had given me a menu but I didn't look at it. The first thing that I would do is set aside my backpack next to me and open it up, there revealed some of my art-supplies and my journal. I would take my journal out and trusty handy-dandy pencil than set it down onto the table. By the time I opened up my journal to new fresh page, someone had come to my table and I quickly shut it closed, putting down my pencil as well.
"Hi! I'm Riley, I will be your waiter today. Can I start you off with any drinks?" The boy had a cheerful smile, beautiful hazelnut eyes... I couldn't help but feel mesmerized. His voice was masculine, but... soothing. "Ma'am?" He gestures a look at me and I would gain myself back into reality. "O-Oh! Uhm, I'm sorry..." I would give him an awkward-nervous smile. "P-Pardon me for asking, but what was the question?" I continue to gesture him an awkward-nervous smile. I hadn't expected it, but my heart was pounding fast. And I meant fast. I could feel myself heating up, but I didn't want that to happen. He laughs and continues to smile, "It's alright. I asked you what drink I can start you off with." He had a serious, yet still cute gesture. "Oh! Some iced-water is alright." I smile and he nods. "Alright. A iced-water. Coming right up!" He continues to smile and walks off back to the counter. I couldn't help but feel like my heart was fluttering, it was like... so strange...
"Here's your drink." Riley had come back with a tall, iced cup of water and I smile, thanking him. "Have you decided on what you're gonna eat yet?" He asks, and I just silently sit there for a second being an idiot, "Oh! Haha... no, not yet. Everything looks very good though." He gestures me a smile, "That's alright. You can take your time. In the mean time, I'll be helping the others." Riley would head off, going back to the counter to help his workmates. Not even thinking, I would grab my journal and open it to a fresh page, "Hm..." I would gently fidget around with my pencil and then an idea had clicked into my head. I began drawing, not paying attention to my surroundings until...
"Heyyy! Alicen!" Oh boy. Chase is back. Before he came over to me, I quickly shut my journal and placed my pencil down. Soon after, he sat at the chair across from me at the my table, smiling. "There you are. Have you decided on what you're going to eat?" Yep. Definitely fond to me. Greeeaaattt... "Uhm, no, not yet. Do you have anything to recommend?" Once again, I'm giving that stupid awkward-nervous smile again. "Oh yeah, definitely! I recommend the Dino Burger and Crispy Fries. They're delicious." He smiles, and I would nod. "Oh, okay. I'll try it out then." And on goes the conversation...
RILEY'S POV
(A/N: The photo above is how Riley looks right now towards Alicen.)
From a far, I was observing that new girl who had just came into the Dino Cafe with Kendall. She really stood out to me, I just... didn't know why. But she was gorgeous. Her long dark-brown hair- Those beautiful dark-brown eyes that glow in the sunlig- Hold on a moment, Riley. Don't have those thoughts popping up into your head! What are you even thinking? She's a customer. You can't have yourself distracted over a girl. That's not... a good idea.
Wait, did I just see Chase go over to her table? Oh goodness. She doesn't look like she's having the best time. Should I interfere with asking if she wants to take her order n-
"Hey Riley! Stop doozing off. Deliver this over to Table 3A." Kendall says, and I would facepalm. Gosh... I shouldn't have slacked off. I listened to Kendall, and brought the food over but I couldn't help but still stare at that girl and Chase. Should I ask now? Probably...
