Deciding to order myself so I wouldn't eat things I didn't knew sounded like a good idea to me. Yeeeaaah 'sounded'. To order you have to know what the hell all the fancy names mean on the kart.
While I glanced at the menu kart, eyes squeezed to thin lines, I mumbled all the names trying to make out what they mean. Suddenly I hear Xander laugh.
"Are you done yet?" He asked staring at me.
His kart is down already and I wonder how the hell he made out what he ordered. Then again, he might come here more often then anyone else.
"Uum, yeah. I'll take.." As I try to pick something to not have to ask his help and look like a fool my phone vibrates in my pocket. "Gimme a sec." I take it out happy with the interruption.
'DANGER! DANGER! No I don't mean the BTS song! KAI SHOWED UP AT NICO'S PARTY.... HELPP MEH PHULEASE!! Oh and how's your day going?'.
It was a text from A. I laughed and started typing back. It probably looked god damn rude but I couldn't care less seeing with who I was.
'Greeeaaaat! Say hi to him from me. And however much I would like to help you I'm stuck... WHAT DOES FOIEGRASS MEAN?! XD I feel like a cow but ordering that sounds most save. I'll explain later. Keep on fighting my sister Xp I'll see what I can do for you when I'm out this... lets stay polite, situation.' I text-ed back.
Sure I wanted to help A but how was I going to get to Haarlem from here soon. Take the train? I would arrive there when they are all gone.
I turn back to Xander. "I think I'll go with the Foiegrass." I wanted to make a smug smirk but really, Foiegrass could just as well be disgusting so I left that out.
"Okay." He waved his finger and immediately an waiter took our orders and returned like the devil bit at his heals.
I had emptied the drink that was placed at my table and the man refilled for me before he raced back to the kitchen.
Within five minutes the both of us had our food and were eating lunch/dinner seeing it was kind of in between. The food I got before me didn't look that bad but then again they pretty everything up so I still had no clue.
"I presume it was your friend that text-ed you?" Xander said more like a statement then a question.
How does this man know? Hooooow?!
"Yeah, it was. She's at a birthday of her nephew Nico in Haarlem. But there is that guy in the restaurant we work at, his name is Kai, and he showed up suddenly at the doorstep like poof! So now he kinda makes it all hard for her to keep her worlds separated and all. Her family doesn't know everyone calls her A you knew that?" Ow god, I'm rambling.
That's what happens if I get comfortable and am a little tipsy. Aaarg why am I such a light weight. Now I had emptied the second glass and as Xander seemed to enjoy the whole rambling of mine he listened smiling amused here and there asking a question to keep me going.
Ooow I will so get revenge. He might think I'm crazy but really this asks for revenge somehow. Making me ramble up everything.
However, I notice that he kept the waiter away who eagerly tried to refile my glass again and again like he was feeding me poison. Which he in some kind of way was. It surprised me, I had expected he wouldn't care at all. When it turns 5:30 he pays for the lunch/dinner and takes me back to his car. I'm pretty okay apart from the hype I get from drinking.
"I ate FROIEGRASS!" I exclaim trying to sound French. Didn't really work out.
Xander laughs again. Then I check my phone and see A didn't text back yet. "I have to save her still though, I'm her friend after all." I say without realizing.
As Xander puts me in the car and gets in himself he looks at me. Head in his hands. "Would you like to go to her?" He asks.
My mouth stops talking and I look at him a little suspicious. Why would he do that? Why would he bring me there? It certainly would go a lot faster and I would arrive in style but I can't wrap my head around what there would be in it for him. I nodded never the less.
He swapped from couch and sat close next to me making me blush more then the alcohol already made me. He pulled out my phone from my pocket without me noticing. Holding it out to me he said;
"Text your friend darling." He whispered it close to my ear.
I turn to him now making our noses almost touch. I laugh thanks to the alcohol. "I will handsome face."
Aaaand thank you alcohol. For giving him more to sabotage me with. He has a handsome face for sure but who would acknowledge that on practically the first date.... did I just call it a date? Dear god.
I shake my head, Xander still close, and started to text A.
'On my waaaay! LIEKIE I will save you from Kai! And arrive in styyyle ^#^ I just don't really know where to go but he seems to know so he'll take me. OW and I want some of the foood hehe' I send it to only then realize that she must have no idea who I mean with 'him'.
I shrug and hear Xander give his driver the address. How does he know where to go and I don't? It's like he has done a personal investigation or something. I didn't notice but I had started to lean against him.
"What am I doing." I say out loud trying to push away.
He pulls me back by my shoulder. "What? You lean against me and then you pull away like your disgusted?" He asks mockingly.
This is a game for him isn't it? "I am disgusted! Nothing disgusts me more!" I say not completely sounding convincing.
He snickers. "Really? Well what about this then." I look at him still leaning. "What you ordered today, the Foiegrass, that's a French dinner. It is actually.." He whispers the rest in my ear.
I scrunch up my face when I know what I ate. "OOOW disgusting! What?! Your lying! No, how did I not notice!" Xander laughs loudly.
"It wasn't horse at least." He jokes.
"Goose liver is just as bad!" I jelled while the car turned on the highway and Xander laughed.
