It's been close to two months since I've moved to Bon Temps, and so far it's been interesting. Since I've started working at Merlotte's, I've met more interesting people here than Seattle.
I role over in bed and face the ceiling. If I'm going to be honest, I dread work sometimes. I work night shifts, and that's when a lot of the weirdos here come out at night, and vampires obviously. Since working, I haven't met a single one. I've been told by Arlene at work that since vampires came out, not one has come to Metlotte's. She's also said that she doesn't even think any live here. It had gave me some relief hearing that, but I still dread work.
I throw the blankets off and sit up in bed, looking out the window across from the room. The branches on the leaves sway back and forth from the summer wind. Its going to be a good night tonight, I can feel it. I get up from my bed and straight to the bathroom and hop in the shower. Since the outfits at work are shorts I have to shave my legs every day. Every. Day.
I get out of the shower and throw on my work outfit. When Sam had hired me, the only outfit size he had was a small. Which didn't work very well with my body shape.
I'm very proud of my body, I have the body every girl wants. I don't like to brag, or make anyone feel less of themselves because of their body, but I have had people hate me for my body type. I have C sized breast's which are almost to a D, I have a pretty decent sized butt with a slim waist. I have long brown hair, long eyelashes, naturally plumped lips...I know I'm beautiful. But a part of me hates myself for it. With beauty, comes unwanted cat calls, stares from older men, and lord knows what they're thinking when they stare.
I throw my hair up into a ponytail and slip on my converse, and throw on a dash of makeup, before rushing out of the house and to work.

I walk into work and see the whole place is packed. I look over to the bar to see Sam throwing drinks together as fast as he can." Hey Sam!" I said with a smile on my face." You're late Cass, again." He says while handing out a drink." I'm only two minutes late Sam!" I called out while walking to the back to grab a apron. I rush out back into the overwhelming room." Alright Lafayette, where do these go?" I asked while grabbing the plates from the ledge." That all goes to table 4 babygirl." He said while flipping over a stake.
"God damn people and their ketchup, who in the hell needs two bottles of ketchup at one table?" Arlene says while snatching two bottles of ketchup from under the bar counter. I gave her a chuckle before running to table 4. I rushed to the table only to be greeted by my regular customers." Hey girls, hows your guys's night going so far?" I asked handing them their food. By the looks of them, they either had gone out and partied already, or they were on their way." Well it's gonna be pretty awesome" Kassidy said with a grin on her face. Kassidy was a brunette just like me, but with blue eyes. She was pretty skinny, but she is still gorgeous. "We're going to this club tonight that's on the outside of Bon Temps, and from what I've heard about it it's pretty awesome" Shelby said. She's a strawberry blonde, with blue eyes and was a little bit of a bigger girl, but of course she is still beautiful.
"Oh really now?" I said while leaning against the booth." Honestly Cass, you should totally come tonight!" Shelby said while stuffing her face with fries." Oh I'm not much of a party kind of gal, maybe some other time?" I said hoping the subject would change." Cass, you've been putting off going out since we've met you. You have to get out honey" Kassidy said sipping her beer. I rolled my eyes with a chuckle following behind." You're coming out with us tonight, you don't have a choice missy!" She continued with a laugh. I laughed along with her." Fine, I'll go. But I don't got anything to wear. Like I said I don't really party."
"Cassandra, what are you doing we got table to serve!" Sam yelled over the music playing in the back ground." We'll bring you something juicy to wear, don't worry girl we got your back." Shelby said with a wink. I gave her yet another smile, before returning behind the counter to grab the plates of food.
