Michael sat at his regular booth in the Crashdown, he opened the classifieds
and placed them in front of him. The newspaper wasn't getting much attention,
though the blonde waitress behind the counter was.
Michael didn't know why he kept coming back to this particular restaurant.
Every single time he would come in, sit in the same booth, order the same
thing and then spend the next couple of hours staring at Maria.
Sure he seen her around at school, when he decided to go that is. He even had
a class with her, but he would never intentionally talk with her. He had to
be alone he kept repeating to himself. There was really no need to get
attached. Everytime he looked at her he always felt like he was missing out
on something special. 'She probably wouldn't go for me anyway.' He always thought. If he ever did feel alone he had Max and Isabel, they were the only ones who would ever understand. But everytime he looked at her she took his breath away, that radiant
smile...everything about her was beautiful. He wondered if Maria ever did
find out about him would she truly accept the whole Alien thing and love him
regardless or would she be repulsed by him?. He would never find out the
answer to that, it would never happen, why even think about it?
Michael looked around the partially crowded cafe and wondered where Max was.
God forbid if Liz did something, any little thing at all, and Max wasn't
there to see it. Talk about obsessed. Michael was glad he wasn't like that.
He glanced one more time at Maria who was drying some glasses and then went
back to reading the classifieds.
"I've got to find a job." He said aloud while skimming threw the ads.
Liz who was walking by the table at that exact time stopped and turned to
him. "Hey, did you say you were looking for a job?" Michael just looked up
at her and nodded.
"Well we are in desperate need of another cook, if your interested I can get
you an application." Liz suggested.
Michael hesitated for a minute. "Uh sure I'll take an application." He said
quickly.
"Great, Hang on I'll be right back." Liz walked away and disappeared into the
back room. Michael smiled to himself. He could picture Max's face as he
filled him in on how he had a brief conversation with Liz. 'Max would be so
upset, the one time he's not here and she talks to me.' He thought and
almost laughed outloud.
Liz returned with the application and handed it to him with a pen. "Goodluck,
just leave it with Maria when your finished."
"Sure Thing." Michael picked up the pen and started filling it out.
A half -n- hour later Michael rose from his booth and made his way towards
the cash register where Maria was standing and looking very annoyed with a
guy. Michael looked the customer over. He was about 17 or 18 at the most, and
looked like an All American jock. He was a bit larger than Michael height and
weight wise.
"Look Shane for the tenth time..I don't want to go out with you. I honestly
don't know where you got the idea that I did!" Her voice raised with each
word causing a few customers to look in her direction. She looked passed
Shane and smiled at Michael. "Can I help you?"
Michael got lost in her magnificent smile for a second but quickly snapped
out of it. "Yeah Liz said to give..." Shane interrupted him "Look Mr. 'I
have rats chew on my hair because its cheaper than a haircut' can't you see we are having a
conversation..get lost."
"God you are so rude..why don't YOU get lost?" Maria asked and strolled
passed him. Shane grabbed her wrist and twisted her around. "Maria just come
with me, we'll have a good time I promise." He started to pull her towards
the door.
"I'm not going anywhere with you, your such a jerk! Leave me alone." Maria
whispered harshly trying to twist her wrist out of his grasp.
Michael dropped the application on the counter and walked towards them. "Are
you deaf? I think she told you to leave her alone and I'd listen to her if I
were you."
"Oh yeah like i'm so scared of you.I'm on the wrestling team." Shane egotistically stepped towards him releasing Maria.
"Yeah like thats something to be proud of, they haven't even won a meet this year" Maria snorted and Shane shot her a murderous glare. He turned back to Michael and got in his face.
Michael shoved him and he fell back but regained his balance and
lunged himself back connecting with Michael. The two boys crashed into a couple tables. Most of
the customers were teenagers who were now standing in a crowd cheering on the
fight. The loud noises prompted Mr. Parker to come out of the back.
"Jose get out here and help!" Mr. Parker yelled as he got closer to the two
boys who were throwing punches on the floor. Michael's punches
connected, stunning Shane for a couple seconds. Jose ran out from the kitchen
and they separated them, pulling them in opposite directions.
"There will be absolutely no fighting in here! Do you hear me? I don't think
you want to pay for everything you break, am I right?" Shane and Michael just
shook their heads then glared at each other with hatred in their eyes.
"Good now why don't the both of you leave and cool down and when you can act
like respectable patrons then you can come back in, but I don't want to see either
of you for the rest of the day." Mr. Parker looked at them sternly then
ushered Jose back to the kitchen to resume his cooking. Liz ran over to Maria
and hugged her. "Are you ok?" she asked.
"Yeah I'm fine...No Biggie." Maria picked up Michael's application and read a
couple lines.
Shane stared at Michael then back at Maria "This isn't over by a long
shot...either of you." He then made a quick exit.
"What was that all about?" Liz asked confused.
Maria pulled out a vile of a mystery fragrance and took a quick sniff.
Michael looked her over making sure she was ok, then walked towards the door but was stopped by a sudden hand on his shoulder. He turned around and looked into the
face of his angel.
"I just wanted to say thank you for helping with that whole situation over
there, I'm sorry though about the fight, he really is a Loser trust me I
know." Maria sighed "But I just wanted to ask for your phone number."
Michael looked at her shocked. 'Did she just ask for my phone number?...Poor
delusional Michael is imagining things.' He thought to himself as his face
lightened a bit."What did you say?" he asked.
"I need your phone number, you forgot to put it on the application see..."
She raised her hand and showed him the empty field on the form.
"Oh ok 939-2446." Michael looked at the floor then back at Maria. "Well I
gotta go, Tell Liz Thanks for me."
Maria nodded nervously. "Will Do...Bye!" Michael gave her a half-smile then made his
way threw the door. Maria stared after him for a bit. "Damn talk about
Yummy!" she whispered and smiled.
She would make sure Mr. Parker got this application, Hell she'd take it to
him personally just to make sure it wouldn't get lost.
