AN: Just a quick idea that popped into my head beings fanfiction for me is kinda dead at the moment.
Nellie had just finished serving another customer, she turned around to tend to her other customers when she felt someone grab her hand, pulling her back to the table. Nellie spun around, shocked and appalled.
"Excuse me, sir," she said to the customer she'd just served. "But I have to tend to my other customers," she tried to walk off again, but the man tightened his grip on her.
"I think," the man said. "That you should come home with me tonight, after I finish this delicious pie of your creation." Nellie laughed.
"I don't," she said. "Come on, get a reality check. If you think I'm the kind of woman who goes home with a complete stranger, you're sadly mistaken, sir," she said. "Now will you please let go of me? I have customers to serve and I don't want to make a scene!" her patience was now drawing thin.
"You'd call me a complete stranger?" the man gasped, shocked. "The probably only man in this world who thinks you're beautiful?" he tried to sound hurt. Nellie blushed.
"Why, thank you, sir," she said through clenched teeth. "But now is really not a good time," she said, heavily emphasizing 'really'.
The fact that she hadn't been to serve her other customers cause curiosity to spark and they began watching the show before them.
"But," the man protested. "I love you!" he tried pulling Nellie down for a kiss but Nellie kicked him, causing her to let go and run away. She saw Sweeney at the foot of the stairs, laughing. Nellie glared at him.
"Thanks for helping me out, Sweeney. I really appreciate it!"
