"Wow, Lavi, this is…. Something else…." Poe said, walking into the restaurant.
Lavi had taken her to a remake of those old 50's restaurants. This place was filled with the old style booths, a jukebox, and the waitresses on roller-blades. It was a classic place, classic and a very nice change from what both show people were used to. There were not many people there, and all of them were either college age or adults.
"How did you know this place existed, Lavi?" Poe asked in awe.
"I have my sources," Lavi said, leading Poe to the small 'bar'.
"Wow," Poe said as she looked around. "I think you can ditch the headband, Lavi. No one here looks like they would know who you are…"
"Well, your brother didn't even recognize me, so I guess I'm safe…" Lavi said, taking off his headband and fluffing out his hair a bit.
At that exact same moment, Kanda and Allen walked into the restaurant.
"Even Yu?" Poe asked in surprise. "Wow… Allen is one of your biggest fans… who would have guessed…?"
"Allen?" Lavi asked, looking at Poe with a confused look in his green eyes.
"Yeah, you might have seen him. He was the white haired kid with my brother tonight. They were in the first row," Poe explained, looking behind her. "And speak of the devil…."
Lavi turned around as well and leaned his back against the bar, gazing at Kanda.
"Man, your brother's a bit of a hottie, if you don't mind my saying," Lavi said, looking over Kanda completely.
"Yeah, I get that a lot…" Poe said, looking at a menu that was handed to her. "From girls AND guys…"
"Really?" Lavi asked, now looking at Poe. "He looks pretty straight."
"Oh please!" Poe said with a scoff. "He's a straight as a circle! Allen's his boyfriend!"
"Really?!" Lavi asked in shock, not expecting such a hot guy to be… gay……
"That's the reaction I always get," Nana said with a slight giggle. "Yeah, my bro's on that side of the fence…" More giggles.
"W-welcome to Jonny Rocket's. My name is Miranda, I'll be your w-waitress this evening…" a waitress asked from behind the bar. She had blackish brown hair pulled back in a bun and brown eyes surrounded by thick black liner. She looked extremely unsteady on her stakes as she gripped the bar for support. "C-can I get you anything to drink…?"
"Water's fine for me," Lavi said, giving the waitress a movie star smile. "What about you, Poe?"
"Do you have Root Beer here?" Poe asked, looking over the list of soda pop they had.
"Y-yes…" the waitress said, writing the things down. "So a water and a root beer? Coming right up…."
"Thank you," the two said in unison with a smile.
Miranda clumsily skated off and back into the kitchen. Lavi looked at Poe with a smile.
"What?" Poe asked when she saw the mischievous look in her friend's green eyes.
"You and Yu… you guys can look like each other… right?" Lavi asked, an evil plan forming in his head.
"Yeah…" Poe answered wearily, unsure of where this was going.
"Well, I wanna talk to him… but there is a slight problem…" Lavi said, slouching and pouting.
"What's that?" Poe asked, trying to make her friend sit up.
"Well, Yu is going out with Allen…" Lavi began. "And I've heard about an Allen Walker from school who beat up any guy who tried to even look at his girlfriend…"
"Yup, that's the same psychotic Allen that Yu is dating!" Poe said with a smile.
"It IS?!!?!?!" Lavi cried, gasping a genuine gasp. "How can ANYONE date that PSYCOPATH?!!?!?"
"I don't know…" Poe said flippantly, looking back at the menu. "Ooh, the hotdog with fries looks really good here…"
"Poe, focus!" Lavi said, snapping his fingers in front of Poe's face, making her snap up. "Look, I want you to switch places with your brother! That way I can talk to him and someone can keep Allen bus!!!"
"Only problem with that is this," Poe said, looking Lavi straight in the eyes, "my brother doesn't know who you are and I highly doubt that he would want to talk to you OR dress like a girl."
"Oh well, it was a good idea…." Lavi said, resting his head on his folded arms on the bar.
"Look, tomorrow is the science fair at the school, right?" Poe asked, getting a nod. "Well, my bro's in charge of it, so he'll be there all day. Find a chance to talk with him then…"
"And that, Poe, is why you are the smartest kid in school," Lavi said with a smile.
They heard screaming behind them as Miranda was bringing drinks to Allen and Kanda. Just as she reached their table, though, she tripped, sending a root beer float and a chocolate smoothie all over Kanda. The drinks landed on his head and all over his torso.
"I-I'm sorry!!" Miranda said, looking panicked.
"You clumsy girl!!" Kanda screamed, too disgusted to move. "Why I ought to.…"
"Yu!!!" Poe screamed in horror, running over to her brother. "Oh my God!! Are you alright?!"
"No I am NOT fucking alright!!!" Kanda screamed, making Poe flinch.
"We should get you home and cleaned up…" Poe said, helping her brother up and out of the restaurant.
"Damn it…" Kanda said as they got in the car, getting the paper towels he kept in there for his rockets. He began to wipe himself off as he said, "I hope that bitch gets fired."
"Don't say that!" Poe scolded as she drove her brother's car home.
