Rent Chapter two
Ste ran into Hollyoaks street and saw a long line of a queue which was outside Carter and Hay. It was people that Ste has never met what were they doing in Hollyoaks in such a small town?
"What the fuck?" Ste thought to himself, usually the deli would only get about 15 customers a day and it was a steady pace. This however was mental!
"Excuse me manager coming through..sorry" He tried to get through the crowd pushing and shoving some people outta the way.
"Excuse me can you please move" Ste looked up and saw this big burly man glaring down at him .
"Fuck off I was here first and if you think you can skup me you've got another thing coming!" The man said to him.
"Excuse me im the manager!"
"Yeah sure and im the king of England" this man said sarcastically
The man shoved Ste outta the queue he fell to the ground " Ow" he yelled, he stood up went forward to the man,
"You really don't wanna piss me off today!" Ste yelled at this bastard. He made a swung at the man but an arm grabbed him and spun him around with such force.
"Now now Steven violence is never the answer" the irish man drawled whispering to Ste.
Ste laughed shortly, "Tats a bit ironic ..coming from you eh?". He glared at Brendan.
"Ever hear of forgive and forget?" he asked.
"Ha fool me once shame on you, but fool me so many times I cant remember shame on me!"
Brendan tried to ignore the comment and looked up at the queue.
"Doug seems to be very busy lately wonder why eh?"
"No hang on I got a problem with you" Ste poked Brendan.
"Oh what did I do now Steven?" Brendan smirked knowing the problem.
"Why is my bill up by NINETY QUID!" Ste raised his voice. Brendan got his hands and pushed Ste down from his toes.
"Calm down Steven keep your voice down yeah?" Brendan hissed worried about Ste always making a scene.
He looked around worried but no one paid attention so he relaxed.
"Listen, listen to me come over later ya and er.. we'll talk about it"
Ste looked at him suspiciously.
"No I'll see you Chez Chez not your house I don't want to be anywhere near your house"
Brendan looked at the ground ashamed, "You really cant forgive me can you" he looked at Ste's piercing blue eyes.
"Well …no ….i ….just …I'll see you later Brendan"
Ste ran over to the deli and a sudden force made him nudge everyone outta his way,possibly the gaze Brendan was giving him.
…..
Doug was absolutely exhausted why was there so many people today of all the days?
Ste threw his apron over him and started straight away, Doug saw sighed with relief. "Oh thank god Ste I'm so sorry but can you blame me?"
Ste sighed he supposed he couldn't get mad at Doug, he didn't want the queue to get this big who would?
"Doug are you ok"
"No im not ive been totally exhausted for the past hour and the queue keeps getting bigger and bigger and I don't know what to do…HELP!"
"Ok ok calm down Doug" Ste looked at the next customer "Hi how can I help you?"
Three hours later
Ste and Doug could finally take a breath of air, the queue had died and they could step outside and take a breather.
"I think I've made about 30 cups of coffee today" Doug laughed, "I would say dyo want one but if I smell a coffee bean one more time I will cry ya know"
"Ya I know watcha mean er Doug I need to tell ya something.."
"What is it?" Doug looked at Ste concerned.
Ste looked at Doug and looked at the ground " It's the end of the month Doug"
Doug completely understood "How bad is it?"
"Our rent has been put up by ninty pound's, AND our next-door neighbour got 40 pounds off and doesn't have to pay till next week and I don't know how but it's a final notice"
"Why is he doing this too you Ste what is his point is he trying to do.. kick you out of your house and make you starve?"
"I dunno but he wants to speak to me at the club but im not looking forward to it "
"Dyo want me to go with Doug" Doug asked trying to be protective.
"No no I can deal with him it's just…I cant say"
Doug held stes hand "Tell me"
"He ..well he has this certain control over me and I cant stop it I mean he entices me in and I don't know what to do, dyo remember when I scammed him the 80 grand I was worried tat I actually was going to stay with him but I heard him laugh when I left the club and I knew right there tat he hasn't changed, but he's going to try to get me back in his pants and im afraid…"
Doug shook Ste "Ste listen to me you can be stronger than you think you are he has the charm of the devil but you scammed him once you can do it again"
"No Doug he'll just click his fingers I know it"
"Listen how about this at 6pm ill call you and tell you I need help at the deli and tell you its urgent so you have to come and he cant do anything ok?"
"Thanks Doug I don't know what I'd do without you eh?"
Ste kissed Doug on the cheek and there was an awkward silence
"Er sorry I didn't mean to…"
Doug waved his hands "No no its fine I mean were still friends but you need to….."
"Don't worry Doug once I get through this ill call you and we'll go to that restaurant we always wanted"
…..
Ste was absolutely nervous he got those butterfilies he got when he went to work
'fuck sake Ste stop it he cant do this to you not again'
Ste walked up the steps and saw Brendan and he was sitting with whiskey in his hand. He saw Ste and turned and stood up.
Oh Fuck Ste thought.
Brendan was wearing his red shirt he wore when they first kiss and he could clearly see his chest and his muscles on his body.
"You ready to hear my proposition Steven?" Brendan smiled.
Ste was rooted to the spot,
This will be a LONG hour…..
