Here is the next chapter. Please review!
I froze, it was Lauren and whoever she was dating this week. He was big and dark, probably a Quileute boy, he was staring at the ground, he seemed familiar. Duhh I thought he's Jacob Black, the one from Sam's gang. Lauren smiled her evil laugh as she walked to the hostess post.
"Kara, what a surprise." She said. Surprise? She came her at least once a week to make trouble for me.
"How many?" I said as sweetly as I could.
"2. And at the usual table." She said just as sweetly. Her usual table was the one I always worked and she knew that.
"Right this way" I said leading them to the table
I sat them down at the nice booth, got their drink orders and was returning when I tripped over something and my face was coming to the ground quickly. Two large arms grabbed me before I could fall. I looked up at my savior; it was Jacob Black. I quickly righted myself and promptly started cleaning the mess, Jacob started to help but then Lauren scolded him like a child.
"Jake! Don't do that, she's help, this is what she gets paid for." She said in her incredibly snobby voice.
He helped me up, handing me the rag he was using to sop up the spilt sodas, and turned to her.
"Its Jacob, and you know what, it wasn't worth it, I'm giving Embry his $20 back." He yelled at her.
I stood there wide eyed, that did not just happen, life just got a little bit better. I tried to hide my laugh but some of it came out anyway, Lauren glared at me, "Oh what are you laughing at? Why don't you just go home to your alcoholic dad and stick your nose in a book!" she yelled at me, causing everyone in the building to stare at me. That shut me up.
I turned around and ran to the staff room, I heard Betty close behind me. I crumpled on the couch, sobbing. Betty was at my side immediately.
"Shush, honey, she's not worth your tears." My sobbing quickly turned into crying and eventually stopped altogether. I turned and gave Betty the biggest hug I could muster.
"Thank you Betty" I said. There was a short rap on the door and Amy, another server, stuck her head through the door.
"Kar, that boy is still here and he's asking for you." She said and then left.
I got up and smoothed out my cloths, Betty helped, fixing my hair back into its messy ponytail. I got up and went outside. Amy was right; sitting in one of the waiting chairs was Jacob Black.
"Hi," I said
"Oh, hey, are you okay?" he asked, concerned.
"Yeah, fine" I said looking away. I looked back at him and he lent over.
"Do you need a ride home?" he asked.
"Umm, thanks but I don't want to be anywhere near Lauren." I said shamefully. He cracked a smile.
"Neither do I, that's why I'm not giving her a ride" he said devilishly.
"You shouldn't leave her stranded here." I said.
"Oh, I didn't, she stormed out. We took separate cars."
"Umm…." I said, except for a few classes with Jacob, I had never really seen or talked to him.
"Come on, its on the way," he said. I looked freaked, how did he know where I lived? He followed with "I live close by."
"Oh, umm, okay. I'll just grab my stuff then." I scurried to the staff room and grabbed my bag. I met Jacob outside; he was leaning on his car. He opened the door and I got in. We drove in silence for a while before Jacob said anything.
"So, listen, if you need anything just come over okay?" he looked at me
I gave him a questioning look. "Why are you being so nice, I mean last time I checked all the kids in Sam's gang were supposed to be … well I don't know, mean or something?" he laughed at me.
"Were not a gang and I…I don't like how she treats you, just because you have to work. After my mom died I had to start working so, I get what its like" He looked down ashamed. Just then we heard a glass breaking from my house.
I sighed "Thanks for the ride, I better get in there before something happens." He nodded and I got out, walking into the house.
Why do you think Jacob being so nice? What does he know?
