"Officer! You made it!" Louie welcomes me into the resterant and places me at a left side table, a clear view to the stage. "Wouldnt miss this." I laugh with Louie. "Rose is making her famous garlic smothered steaks tonight." I sit and smirk. "It's just my night all around huh?" we laugh again. "I'll take the steak and a side mashed pats aaaaannnnd-"
"White wine is best." I turn to Grace walking in with Kevin and Melissa. "Well that settles it; A bottle of white wine." Louie nods and I turn back to Grace. "Here with the family?"
"Yeah but after dinner Kevin is taking Melissa home."
"I hope you wont be too lonely." I smirk. "Now that I think about it, maybe I will. How could I ever get over the lonelyness?" she gasps with a sly smile. "I could offer my services."
"I think that'd be acceptable." she leans in and purrs. "Ma!" Melissa whines, flopping her hand back and forth, montion Grace to sit with her and her dad. "I'll take that as promise." she winks and walk off to her table. I sigh and smile and lean back, waiting for the show to start.
"Ladies and gentleman, thank for coming on this very special night. Everyone here as met our lovely bell boy/waiter Jeff Damon, but your about to see him in a whole new light." Rose's voice fades as the light on stage flicks on. I spot Jeff, in a black tux with a red tie, leaning against the piano with Dunning at said piano. 'How sweet of Louie, lettin the kid change' I snicker as he starts to sing.
"I've been watchin your world from afar
I've been trying to be where you are
And I've been secretly fallin apart, you see"
He pauses, his smooth, soft voice still drifting through the room, the piano softly playing.
"To me, your strange and your beautiful
You'd be so perfect with me but
ya just cant see
You turn every head but ya dont see me..."
He stands in the middle of the stage, holding the mike with both hands. He opens his eyes, the red and black suit making his blue eyes bright.
"I'll put a spell on you
You fall sleep
and I put a spell on
And when I wake you
I'll be the first thing you see
And you'll realize that you love me"
He pauses again, letting the piano play through. His dark blond hair gleming in the dim light and the silence in the now full room tells me everyone is enchanted by him as I am.
"Sometimes the last thing you want comes in first
Sometimes the first thing you want never comes
And I know that waitin is all you can do
Sometimes..."
Jeff's voice slowly picks up volume, his soft voice beautiful and silky...
"I'll put a spell on you
You fall sleep
and I put a spell on
And when I wake you
I'll be the first thing you see
And you'll realize that you love me
I'll put a spell on you
You fall sleep
and I put a spell on
And when I wake you
I'll be the first thing you see
And you'll realize that you love me"
His voice goes high then back to low during this and he gently sways to the ending peice of the piano. I'm the first one to clap. Everyone joins in, cheering, claping and whistling. Jeff blushes and bows as Dunning even starts to clap. I lean in my chair as the lights come back on. "When'd my food get here?" I question softly outloud as I look down to spot my steak on the table. "Didnt even realize." I look up at Louies smirking face. "Zip. It." I glare and digg into my steak. Everyone gives one last round of applause for the kid and they pour out... I stay behind for a bit. "Kid that was...amazing." I smile as I walk over to Jeff, sitting atop the empty piano. "Thanks Kyle... Hey maye you should do a duet with me tomarrow." he smiles, laughing. "Maybe.." I lean next to him. "You got a nice set of lungs, seriously kid...Didnt know." i shrug. "Well I can do more then sing." I double take at the sly sparkle in his blue eyes. "W...Wha-"
"Jeff come on in here! We gotta clean up if we wanna get to bed..Dunning aint gunna give us the key!" Jeff jumps down from the piano. "Comin!" he turns to me. "See ya Kyle." he gives a small wave and trots to the kitchen. I shake my head, still staring at the kitchen door. I shake my head once more, trying to get the image of Jeff outta my head because I got a woman to keep company.
Two minutes in Grace's room and we're all over each other. Her small groans and soft hisses, my pants and growls fill the room. I wrap my arm around her small waist and nip at her neck. "Jeff.." i groan. I stop. 'Jeff...? Oh shit...' she pulls away. "Jeff? Did...did you just call me Jeff?" she doesnt look or sound angry but oh boy if a woman dont get mad at you for calling them a guys name during a make out. "N-no! I said... 'left'! Like 'a little to the left so we could get on the bed.'"
'The fuck is wrong with me?! Why'd I call her Jeff?! Oh nonononono...'
"You said Jeff's name..." she fully pulls out of my arms. "Look, Grace, i'm sorry..I didnt mean to. I wasnt thinking about him or nothin.." Truth is, I was. I still am. "Please Grace.." I try to pull her back into my arms as the door opens. "Hey si-!"
oh shit!
Jeff stands in the doorway, shock still. "J-Jeff!" Grace yelps. "Oh fuck me...Kid look-"
"N-no...It's my fa-fault.. I..I should've knocked..I'm sorry for inturrputing you two.." he voice cracks and he turns his head away, tears falling to the carpet. "Jeff w-" he slams the door and the sound of him running away fades. I stand there, shocked, confused, and torn at what to do. "Go comfort him." Grace snaps me out of my trace. "What?"
"Go comfort him." she repeats. "B..But us Grace-"
"It's okay. We're okay but I'm not who you want." I look at her in shocked surprised at how calm she is. I nod. "Thanks." she puts her hand up. "On second thought I got a better idea." a smirk appears on her face.
After she tells me her plan, I head back to my room. "Okay..." i whisper to myself as I go over the plan in my head. I walk into my room and a couple of minutes past then my phone rings. I hurry to pick it up. "Hello?"
"hun?" Rachel. "Hey rach."
"Hey hun. I just heard your flight got cancled 'til Wensday."
"My flight got cancled?"
"Yeah you didnt hear? Cause of the werid weather changes, it started snowing outta nowhere. I figure you knew and was mopping 'cause you cant drive back neither." I smile. "That might be just the thing..."
"Hun? Why? i thought your in a rush back here for the kid that spotted your partner?"
"Oh shit! I totaly forgot bout Bradley.." I dunno how since a contact of his is right across from me...
"Been busy Sweetie?" She giggles. "You can say that. I'll tell you everything when I get back. Tell Ed to tell the cheif to let the kid go but keep a close eye on him 'til I get there okay?"
"Okay. Bye hun."
"Wait Rach. Do a little reserach on Travis Porter. If you dont find nothing, try tellin Ed or Pam at the station k?"
"Travis Porter?"
"Familiar?"
"A bit. But I'm not sure...I'll do it. Bye Sweetie."
"Bye."
I hand up the phone and lay down, thinking not about 'Porter' or whatever his name is, not thinking bout my flight just thinking bout my plan to finally get Jeff.
