Chapter Four:
Working Days
"Oh my god." Oh my god." I shook Castiel awake pushing him to the floor. "Castiel you need to wake up now!" He groaned lifting peeking up from the side of the bed clearly annoyed.
"What?!" I was scrambling to pick up my clothes from the floor throwing them on half hazardously.
"You need to get dressed! I'm sooooo late for work!" I say pulling Castiel by the arm trying to get him to stand up properly.
"Just call in." He says nonchalantly getting back into bed pulling the covers over his head. I started to freak out Clemence was nice to an extant but not that nice.
"I can't call out my boss is going to kill me." I shook him yanking the covers off him poking him repeatedly. He groaned opening his eyes looking at the clock on the side table. He moved slowly getting out of bed as I shifted from one foot to another.
I let out a sigh of annoyance as he moved even slower to pull on a pair of basketball shorts. "Castiel…" I say impatiently he hold up a finger for me to hold on as he unlocked his phone.
"This room 476 Castiel- Yes can you bring my car around...Alight thank you." He picked up a piece paper from the table and pulled out a cigarette.
"Alright come on." he says lighting it up opening the door and walking out I followed out behind him the two boys from last night were passed out on the couch. We moved quickly down to the lobby were his black car was waiting for us.
Castiel was pushing the speed limit and I was clutching on to the arm rest hoping we didn't crash.
"Castiel can you slow down!" I screamed at him as the gage went up to eighty.
"You wanna make it to work or not?" he said pressing on the fast paddle. I couldn't argue with him on that but I knew Clemence was going to be angry. Even with him pushing fifty miles over the speed limit I was still an hour late
I ran out the car like a bat out of hell castle right behind me pulling on my arm to stop me. I turned to look at him with crazed eyes if Clemence saw us she would think I was just goofing off.
"No goodbye?! He yells out from the window I brush him off and run into the Cafe. Clemence was already staring at me from the counter.
"I'll text you when I'm on break." I say turning to him and give a nod then peels off with a screech. I walk into Cozy Bear and to Clemence.
"Katori…" She gave a grim frown folding her arms. "Finally here for work with no uniform…" she says looking down at my too comfy attire to combat the cold fall. I sighed trying to think of an excuse to give.
"I'm so sorry I just-" she cut me off not wanting to here any of my lies.
"If you don't want to work here I could easily find someone else I suggest you get it together or next time you won't have a job.: She says straight to the point. I just nodded I didn't need to lose this job I needed it to continue to pay for my college fees.
"Yes ma'am" I say defeated what else could I say to that.
: There's an extra apron in the back.: She says walking away back into the cafe I follow behind. Hyun walked up to me giving a sympathetic smile.
"You ok?" He asked holding a tray of empty drinks and plates.
"Yeah I'm ok." I say Clemence was staring at me from the registry. I quickly moved from him and getting to work. It was a long stiff and Clemence made sure that I was put to work three times more than usual. I guess she was doing it as punishment for being an hour late. I didn't complain about it that would have done me no good.
I decided to not take my break and just work the full eight hours. Four hours had a passed since I to here and the Cafe was packed. I walked to an empty table notepad in hand. Two boys and a girl sat at a table in the back. One boy with a Purple highlights and a thick sweater. The other boy had thick spiky hair and a black coat the girl across from them was tan with long blue and green hair. I give a courteous smile as I approached them
"Welcome to Cosy Bear Cafe I'm Katori and I'll be your server. What will you be having today?" I say in a giddy tone. They all look up to me the boy with the black coat gave a look of recognition.
"I'll have a uh…" the boy with the purple highlights looked at the menu again. "Black tea with milk and greek salad." He says I wrote down waiting on the other two the black haired boy keep stealing glances at me. I tried to act like I didn't notice.
"Green tea for me not sugar and how are the pasties?" the girl asked. I had never had anything from out here but I knew to lie.
"Oh there great I would recommend the Bear Claw." I say smiling she said she would take it and I waited for the boy.
"I'll just have a coke and Cubano sandwich" he says giving a curious look.
"Ok I'll have your orders ready." I say walking away to the kitchen fixing up their drinking and food. Ten minutes later I was back out on the floor tray heavy with a items sitting their plates down in front of them.
They thanked me and restarted their conversation and I went to a empty table cleaning up the mess. My phone vibrated in my pocket. Looking around for any sign of Clemence I checked it it was Castiel.
I'm going back out on tour in a few hours are you still on tour?
I quickly texted him back putting my phone away and taking up the dishes on the now empty tray. A few minutes had passes and my phone vibrated again I quickly checked it.
Omw.
My heart speed up Castiel was coming to my job to attempt to spend time with me. I ut the dished in the sink and started to wash them.
Of course when castiel showed up his groupies showed up too clinging onto him. The white and the black boys from last night plus another boy with green hair behind him. I seethe with jealousy as I watched an older woman with blond hair flashes her breast in his face in a desperate attempt to get him to pay attention to her.
Clemence was out from behind the counter in flash.
"Katori you man the counter." She says going in front of Castiel and his entourage with a wide smile.
"Your Crowstorm" She says all to flirtatious of my taste.
"Yeah can we get a table." he say pointing to the closest table near the counter. " Over there." He says locking eyes with me.
"Of course" She ushers them over pulling a few empty tables over to form a bigger table for the mass of people. His group member whispering to each other while eyeing me. They all sat down groupies on each side.
He was so close but so far.
