A week or so went by and no sign of her returning. A deep part of me hoped she would come back, but she could've just been a tourist stopping in on her travels.
"Hey Hannah can you cover table 5 for me, I'm swamped," Vic asked.
"Yeah sure."
I walked out of the kitchen into the dining area, when I saw fire red hair faced in the opposite direction. I quickly turned around and was met by Loren and Vic both smiling.
"No, be brave," Vic told me.
I looked at Loren, hoping she'd back me up. She nodded her head telling me to go. I took a deep breath, turned around, and walked to the red's table.
"Hi, my name's Hannah and I'll be taking care of you this evening. Can I get you something to drink?" I asked smiling.
She looked up at me over her menu and smiled. I swear, the whole f*cking room lit up when she smiled.
"I'll take an iced tea with lemon please."
That voice. Oh my God.
"Sweet or unsweet?" I asked nervously.
"Sweet" she said and smiled at me again. I could've swore she winked at me.
I don't even know this girl's name and she's already going to be the death of me.
"I'll be right back to take your order."
I walked away, and a million thoughts flooded my mind. Could she really like me? No, who am I kidding. She's too gorgeous for me.
I walked over to the fountains and was met by Vic. Her arms crossed, obviously waiting for me to tell her what happened.
"She ordered a sweet tea" I said grabbing a glass.
"That's it?"
"Uh, yeah? What did you expect? Us to make out in the booth?" Sarcasm dripped from my words.
"Well, it would've been a nice thought. You need to make a move." she said.
By this time, I was finished with her drink, and walked over to grab a lemon wedge.
I rolled my eyes at Vic and then made my way back into the dining area.
"Here's your sweet tea" I said smiling.
"Thank you."
"So are you ready to order?" I asked her.
"Yes, I'll take a cheeseburger, medium well, with fries." she smiled.
"Okay then."
"Oh and no onion. I wouldn't want to have bad breath" she said and winked at me.
I think i just died right then and there.
"Okay, I'll put your order in. Can I get you anything else?"
"No, I'm okay," she smiled.
I walked back to the kitchen and put the order on the tabs. I saw Vic out of the corner of my eye and knew she'd be over here in about 5 seconds. And just like I thought, she came to annoy me more.
"Any news?" she asks smiling.
"No, Im her waitress, she's a customer Vic. This is nothing." I said walking out to check on my other tables.
"But.." she began but I was already out the door.
I waited on my other tables and eventually, the red head's food came up. I grabbed it off the shelf, along with a bottle of ketchup.
"Cheeseburger, medium well, with fries. Oh and no onions," I said trying to be funny.
She laughed the cutest laugh I've ever heard.
"Thank you" she said as I sat her food on her table and handed her the bottle of ketchup.
"Can I get you anything else? Mustard, mayo?" I asked smiling.
"Umm. Can I get a little cup of mayo please?"
"Sure, I'll be right back."
I came back with her mayo and she took it thanking me again.
Not too long later, she was finished and I brought her the ticket.
I went and checked my other tables then came back to what was the red's table, but she had already gone. She left a $20 bill on the table and had wrote a note on a little napkin.
Thanks for taking care of me so well, keep the change.
We should hang out some time ;)
