"Is there anything else I can get yous?", I say in a slightly cheerful voice, gently grabbing an empty plate off of the table in front of me, looking back and forth between two older gentlemen.
As I reach to grab another plate, one of the men places their hand over mine, gently squeezing it, "Why dont you have dessert with us? We were thinking about going somewhere more-- private.~", both of the men smile at me like predators while I slowly pull my hand out of theirs, smiling out of disgust, "I already have plans. Now if yous need anything else just call for me.".
As I turn away from the men, one of them tightly grabs my wrist, stopping me in my tracks, "Come on Kitty..~ Its just a bit of fun--", suddenly another hand tightly grabs onto the customers wrist, yanking it off of me quickly while Jace slightly pushes me behind him and away from the men, growling out with a forced smile, "Excuse me sir, but we ask customers not to touch our staff."
The two men laugh slightly, "He was acting dramatic, we were just asking him a few questions, ain't that right boy?" The older man peeks over at me, while his smile makes my skin crawl. Jace quickly steps in front of me more, blocking the older man's sight, "Questions dont involve grabbing staff by the arm Sir.", Jace quickly grabs the remainder of the dirty dishes on the table, smiling bitterly, "Now then, I'll go retrieve your checks.", turning towards me, Jace gestures at me to follow him as I do so until we reach the kitchen in the back, sliding the dishes into the sink I whisper out, "T-Thank you again Jace." turning towards him slowly.
"You're just lucky the bar isnt busy today and I can come to your rescue. What is this, the fourth time today?", sliding the dishes into the sink as well Jace looks up at me, pausing for a moment, "Well I guess you can't help how attractive you are when you're not hiding behind a hoodie and baggy ripped jeans.~", scanning my body over briefly, I blush a bright red, leaning back against a wall as I sigh loudly, "Getting a compliment from you. What an honor.", I smile and comb my fingers through my hair while I close my eyes for a few seconds, reopening them as Jaces face is now directly in front of mine, staring directly into his hazel eyes while his pupils dilate, "No such thing as personal space for you, huh?", I laugh a bit nervous, patting him on the chest while he slowly leans his face in closer. "L-Let's go get them their checks. The sooner they leave the better." I huff out while sliding out of the kitchen quickly, blushing a dark shade of red, "What the hell was that about?..", I silently ask myself.
