"I feel awful" Bubbles groaned as she collected the dishes from the last table.

"I know a winter blow out special on Christmas Eve" Blink groaned as she put another order on the spinner.

"Not that… Robin" Bubbles sighed before walking over to refill a mothers coffee.

"She had a fever she had to go to the doctor" Blossom whispered over to her as she collected the money from an old couple while wishing them a merry Christmas.

"She was seriously bummed she had been looking forward to the tournament for so long" Buttercup commented from the kitchen.

"It's all our fault we should go see her after work" Bubbles cried as she served a family there meals.

"That would be nice but where not getting off anytime soon this place is packed" Blink muttered eyeing the diner full of people.

Sighing Bubbles could feel the guilt eating away at her Robin had to miss her last volleyball game of the season. Even Buttercup got to finish her soccer season and she was stuck in the ice. It was times like this that she was reminded just how fragile humans really were it wasn't fair really.

She let out another sigh as she walked up to the table she hadn't gotten to yet she noticed it had one man sitting there.

"Hello sir, my name is Bubbles and i will be your server for today what can I do for you?" She asked reading her pen.

"Well i'd like the pancake platter with extra sausage bacon and eggs" Nodding she wrote down quickly before looking up at him. "Is that all?" She asked.

"Oh no not even close" he told her a wide smile going a his face flashing a sharp toothy grin.

"Alright what else" she asked slightly raising a brow.

"I want the biscuits and gravy platter but times that by 5. Next ill have two hash browns both ways. It says here that there's an omelet i'll have two no tomatoes please both sausages and bacon if you please" he told her pausing to let her write it all down.

"Anything else?" She asked.

"Yeah i'll like a fruit bowl and and a rack of ribs. Right and you know those pitchers you use?" He asked pointing at one of the pitchers behind her. "Yes" she said with a nod. "Just fill it with half sweet half unsweet tea and serve it to me" he finished his order with a smile.

"So to recap you want a pancake platter with extra sausage bacon and eggs" he gave her a nod to let her know she was right so far. "The biscuit and gravy platter served five times over. Two hash browns both ways. Two omelette sausage and bacon no tomatoes a fruit bowl as well as a rack of ribs that will take longer since it's on the lunch menu. Then for the drink half and half pitcher of tea"

"Well alright this might take a while would you like me to serve it as it comes out or all at once?" She asked him he gave her an odd look.

"Your not going to ask how i'm gonna eat it all?" He asked tilting his head.

"Well that's a rude question your hungry why question it," she told him with a bright smile.

"All at once" he told her lowly.

"Do you mind if i put a curtain up im a bit messy" he asked reaching into his bag and pulling out what looked like part of a curtain rod.

"If you put it up i don't mind in the least" she told him before turning to take the order to Buttercup.

As she walked up to the window she had to move as Blink maneuvered around her with trays of food.

"Just give it to me I've finally caught up" Buttercups voice rang proudly as her hand.

"Here you are" she said handing the two small notepad papers to her sister.

"Bubbles how many tables are these?" Buttercup asked curiously.

"Just one" she responded. Stepping back from the window.

"You mean all of this if for one table?" Her voice was raising as she read the order over.

"No just that guy?" She told her motioning her head over to her the guy setting up his curtain.

"You mean i have to make all this for one guy when where packed?" She asked eye twitching slightly.

"Right and he wants it all at once," she told her sister stepping farther away from the window. She quickly walked away getting started on his pitcher of tea. Walking over to him she could see Blink walk to the window with four papers from four different tables.

"Here you are sir," she told the man he was pretty quick the curtain was already up. The man opened the curtain slightly smiling brightly at her. "Thanks i know its a tall order im just so hungry" he apologised sheepishly taking the pitcher. "It's no problem sir honesty" she started trying to calm his sudden anxiety when a loud "OH FUCK ME" came from the kitchen along with the cruching sound of a spatula luckly the place was so crowded and loud it was just one of the many voices of the room. But the man had heard it loud and clear looking down slightly he apologised again and closed the curtain.

"Buttercup!" She could hear Blossom scold.

"This douche ordered a rack of ribs DURING BREAKFAST" she shouted back from the fridge. The smallest snicker from Blink had the green eyed brute beyond fuming. "You want to get your lazy ass in here and get the damn ribs?" She asked in a dangerous voice.

"Hello there my name is Blink what would you like today?" was the response they got.

Finally after an hour and a half and many check ups Bubbles was able to bring all the man's food to him. "Sorry for the wait but ive finally got it all hope you enjoy" "Better fuckin enjoy" Buttercup muttered.

"Yes thank you im completely fine no need to check on me anymore" the man assured her allowing her to walk away.

"That was awful" Blink muttered as she sat at one of the bar stools.

"So much coffee" Blossom sighed she had to serve the bar as the place filled up. "So much hot chocolate!" Her head fell on the table.

"Speak for yourself that guys order was hell plus all the others we need more workers here i can't go through another breakfast rush again" Buttercup cried she was currently laying on the bar spatula flung flawlessly through the window.

"Well christmas is tomorrow maybe will have a Christmas miracle and get more employees to help on our shifts" Bubble sighed happily laying her head down on the bar.

"Or maybe ya know no more specials" the chief suggested roughly.

"Well rush hour is over and we get to go home in 6 hours" Blossom said trying to lighten the mood but only got a chorus of groans.

"Thank you for the meal" the man grinned as he to the counter.

"Your done?" Bubbles asked.

"Yes and it was very delicious compliments to the chief thanks for putting up with me this place is nice i'm glad i found it before any other see you girls" he told them with a grin setting a 200 dollars on the counter next to the register. "Keep the change you girls worked hard happy holidays" he told them with a smile.

"He...HE ATE ALL OF IT" Buttercup cried as she observed the dozen emptied dishes.

"Would you look at that." Blink uttered eyes wide.

"Where did it all go?" Blossom asked remembering how skinny the guy was.

"DID HE EAT THE RIB BONES TO?" Buttercup whaled.
