Friday evenings prove to always be busy for the cafe. It's the start of the weekend and everyone is excited to get drunk.For me, however, it means that I have to work a whole lot more. I've been on my feet the whole day taking orders and serving people.
"Can I get a large chocolate milkshake, please?" I swerve face the owner of the voice. I haven't seen him since the last time we spoke - which was two weeks ago.
"Sure thing," I say snarkily and send the order back to the kitchen.
I never fully understood the issues between Daniel and Sebastian. I always assumed it was because Daniel bullied me in high school but it's much more than that.
"How are you feeling? You know, after what happened with Daniel. I know you ran onto the pitch when he got elbowed in the nose." He says in a disgruntled voice.
"Everything is pretty much good between us. It's back to the way it was."
"I don't think you should be around him. He's not good for you." He declares nonchalantly.
I get that he's worried but it's not his decision to make. I will hang out and spend time with whoever I want to. It's my life at the end of the day. Both my father and sister are okay with me hanging out with him.
"No offense Seb, but that's my decision to make. I can take care of myself."
"I wasn't asking you. You have to stay away from him." He stands up and angrily slams his hands on the countertop.
He gains the attention of some people in the cafe. He's now throwing a tantrum and he has a crowd watching.
"Why do you hate Daniel so much?" I cross my arms over my chest.
"You hate him too."
"Yeah, but you seem to hate him more."
"You won't understand it." He murmurs.
"Then make me understand. I don't understand why you are making such a big deal of this." I grit my teeth.
"You have no idea what he is. Once you do, you'll come back to me." He grips out before marching out the cafe, almost knocking over another customer - Daniel.
"Whoa." He says as he just avoids colliding with Seb. Seb looks furious as if he was going to strangle Daniel with his bare hands right there and then, but he ignores him and walked out.
Somebody is moody.
"What's his problem?" Daniel asks as he takes a seat on one of the barstools. He looks nice in his stonewashed jeans and red hoodie.
"You," I mumble. "What can I get you?"
"How about you grab a can of whipped cream and meet me in my car?" He asks with raised eyebrows. He's trying his luck and it's tempting me.
It would be nice to take a small break and get laid in the back of his Bentley. I've always dreamed about having sex in the back of a car - as weird as that is. But on the other hand, Dina will slaughter me if I slack off again.
"Sorry James, but I really have to work." He nods silently, looking as if he was thinking about something.
"Okay, can I have a hot chocolate with extra whipped cream so that I can atleast imagine I'm licking you?" A smirk graces his face.
"You're weird James." I giggle, writing down the order and sending it back. For some odd reason, he's been making me laugh and smile a whole lot more these days.
