Pi Pa Bar and Restaurant 1800
As we walked into the bar, I felt more beautiful than before I had done my makeup and put the jewellery on. I had foundation on, with cherry red lipstick. On my eyes was black, grey and white eyeshadow to give it a smokey look. With light blush and dark eyeliner and mascara, it was amazing considering I did it in the car. With a black chain necklace that had my mother's engagement ring attached and my father's wedding ring, I felt complete. Black dangly earrings were in my ears and a black sparkly bracelet on my left wrist.
"What do you guys want to drink" Leo asked us.
"I'll have a beer please" I answered. Everyone just stared at me. Ya the fact that I prefer beer and burgers over wine and a fancy diner also make me one of the boys.
"What" I ask.
"Nothing" they all respond looking away awkwardly.
When Leo came back with our drinks, we all started talking about what we were going to do over the break. When it came to me, I felt trapped.
"Oh um I'm gonna visit some friends." Which was a lie, I wasn't visiting a friend, I was gonna be working.
"Oh cool, where do they live, maybe one of us can drive you over" Buffer asked.
"Na it's all good, they live literally 2 streets away from me." Ok so that part is true, there is someone I know that lives 2 streets away. Suddenly our waiter came over.
"Hi guys, my name is Aaron and I'll be your waiter tonight" I looked up at the familiar voice.
"Hi Aaron, can I get my usual" I ask with a grin
"You sure can, do you want to go get it. You know boss loves ya. He's been asking about you. Also how are you sweetie" he asks while giving me a side hug and kiss on the forehead.
"ya im good. And ya I'll get it, I'll go say hi to boss. Do you want me to be our waiter, please" I beg him.
"ya sure thanks" he responds but before he gets to far.
"do you have my uniform"
"oh ya its in the car" and with that he chucks his car keys at me. When I caught them I turned to the boys.
"Ok be back soon"
Buffer's POV
"Ok what was that" I ask the guys as soon as Bec walked away.
"Oh I don't know, maybe she works here" Taffy said sarcastically.
"Ya Taff, you went to school with her, who's that guy" Leo asks
"He is Aaron Anderson. Bec and Aaron were inseparable. They chose classes with each other and if they didn't get into the same class, they would complain til the principal let them" He responded with a smirk.
"Oh ok" Leo said. With that we all went back to talking about what we were gonna do for our holiday. After 5 minutes Bec came back.
Bec's POV
"Ok guys what do you want" I asked when I reached the table.
"Um just a beer for everyone so far" Co replied.
"Cool, be back" and with that I turned around and walked to the bar.
"Hey Jack, can I get 10 beers" I ask
"Ya sure, how ya been Becca"
"Ok I guess, we have a 2 week shore leave which is gonna be great"
"Cool, here are the drinks."
"Thanks" with that I take the tray and walk back over to Hammersley.
"Ok here you go guys, I'm gonna run a tab for you, but I'm gonna go see someone, if you need something just either text or wave me down" I say and then walk off.
Walking through the restaurant I see a lot has changed. They must have renovated, the bench tops are now blue when they use to be orange, they have new sinks, equipment and colours.
I reached the bosses office, knocked and waited for a come in which I got less than 10 seconds later.
"Oh hi Bec, how you been" Josh Osborne asked standing up and giving me a hug.
"Ya been good, how bout you"
"Not to bad, Beth and I have a son now. His name is Calum" he said turning a frame around.
"Oh my gosh, he is adorable, how old is he?"
"He would be 2 months old now"
"Naw, I want cuddles now" I say with a pout, and so glad Hammersley wasn't seeing my soft side.
"Beth is bringing him in, in like 5 minutes, until then work"
"Yes sir" I say saluting then turned and walked back to Hammersley, grabbing a few menu's on the way.
"Ok guys here's some menu's in case you guys want something"
"Thanks Bomb" Swain said.
"Ok, I'm gonna head to the bar and catch up with people, unless you guys want something"
"Na go ahead. But we want explanations later"
"Sure, thanks guys, remember if you need anything, signal me over"
With that I walk over to Aaron, Jack, Taylor and Emily.
"Hey guys" I say, which resulted in me getting tackled by Taylor and Emily.
"Hey Becca, how ya doing" Emily asked once she got off me.
"Ya really good. How bout you"
'Yep, I'm good' was the response I got from both Emily and Taylor.
"So when are we gonna meet your shipmates" Taylor asked.
"You can meet them now" I say pointing to Hammersley, who by the way were watching and quickly looked away.
"Cool, come on boys" Emily said dragging Taylor and Aaron.
At that she started running over pulling the two boys behind her.
"Hi my name is Emily, this is Taylor and Aaron, and we want to hear about what Bec is like on the ship" Emily said really fast. Everyone started chuckling at her antics.
"Hi I'm Mike Flynn, the Captain of the ship and this is the X, Buffer, Swain, Spider, 2Dads, Ro, Bird, Nav, Et, Charge, Dutchy, Ryan and Taffy." Sir said.
"Hey guys" Taff said while giving them hugs.
"Taffy, long time no see" Aaron said giving him a 'man hug'.
