Jess' POV*
I grabbed a pen and a notepad walking out of the kitchen where a few customers sat in the restaurant.
Some customers were being served so I looked around to find someone who needed to be served.
"Hey Jess, those customers over there have been waiting for a long time. You'll be waitressing them for tonight!" My work friend, Ashely told me pointing at someone who had a pair of sunglasses on their face.
"Sure thing." I smiled at her and she smiled back walking into the kitchen. I breathed in and walked over to guy with his sunglasses on.
"Hello I'm Jess, I'll be your waitress for tonight." I smiled at him sweetly Rules are rules, no sunglasses on inside the restaurant.
"Excuse me sir but your not aloud those sunglasses on." I said in a calm and nice voice. He sighed and took them off. My jaw dropped!
There sat before me the one I have had dreams about! I had to pinch myself to make sure it wasn't a dream this time
I grinned from ear to ear. "So, can I take your order?" I asked him getting my pen ready to write down his order.
"Yes and how about your number?" Greg winked at me making my blush and giggle. I wrote my number quickly and handed it to him.
" Your order then." I smiled making him smile back at me. He asked for my number and I gave it to him.
Please tell me this is not a dream. I pinched myself in the arm again and winced. Nope, not a dream.
"I'll have the Italian meatball pasta with some cheesy garlic bread on the side." Greg told me
"I'll be right back with your food, any drinks?" I asked before I left. "Just a water please."
"Ice?" I asked him."Yes please." Greg smiled and winked up at me making me blush again.
"I'll be right back with your drinks." I exclaimed and walked into the kitchen filling cups up with bottled water putting ice in a crystal clear glass.
I walked back out and back over to him. "Here is your drinks, and in a few minutes I'll be back with your food." I smiled and went to help cook their food as I was the head chef and could help a little with the food.
"Order for table 6 ready." Adam called to me and I grabbed there food walking back over to Greg with his beautiful blonde spikey hair and hazel eyes.
"Here's your food and please enjoy." I smiled setting the hot plates down in front of him. "Thank you!" Greg smiled and I nodded with a smile on my head walking to the back to help out.
After a few minutes I went back out to them to ask if he wanted desert or not.
"Would you like deserts or not?" I questioned him getting my pen ready just incase.
"No, im alright. I'll call you soon!" greg winked at me before leaving the restaurant. Did that really just happen?
For the rest of the night I cooked the food for other customers and they commented on how a good cook I am.
I finished University to become a CSI and I wanted to work in Vegas not here where lewis wanted me to work I should be able to soon once I earn enough money to get everything I needed to build this restaurant.
Soon enough my shift ended and I got into my car heading back home... I was gathering up the courage to tell my best friend that i was moving to vegas this weekend 3 more days... I mean she has always been there for me and I cant imagine life without her and I wasn't ready to have another relationship and especially not with someone i dreamt about and coincidentally met.
Finally I was home at my apartment and to my surprise Paige was already there...
"Paige there is something I have to tell you..."
I began to explain everything
"What, what is the matter Jess?" Paige exclaimed
"I have decided to take up a job as a CSI"
"Well that's ok! The lab is only around the corner"
"No-Paige I'm moving-
"What?Where?When?... I will miss you so much-"
"I-I'm moving to Vegas I have a job there i start in 3 days"
"What!? that's miles away!
"ugh yeah I know... I'm leaving tomorrow...Look i just want a fresh start after everything ok?"
"uh ok..."
"Look i need to go get some sleep Paige ok?"I sighed "night"
As we walked to our separate rooms for probably the last time I let out a huge breath that I didn't know i was even holding.
I lay in bed thinking about what just happened, well it could of gone a lot worse- trust me
-Before I knew it it was morning and I hadn't gotten any sleep, I had just been lying there thinking about...well everything-especially that boy! I guess part of the reason that made me want to move is because of him,we got on so well but i wasn't ready for another relationship just now. What Lewis did to me i don't think i can get over that quite so quickly.
I needed to start packing, as i want to get there early, I wasn't even sure if they had accepted me for the job yet-but there are other jobs right? Just then i heard the letter box go and I walked to the post picking up the only letter that interested return address said:
Las Vegas crime lab
Las Vegas
Nevada
Impatiently, I carefully and quickly opened the letter and skimmed through it until something caught my eye ' Your job application has been accepted,you start on Monday'
"Yesssss" I shouted I was so happy, I practically skipped to my room.
"What are you so happy about?" Paige said grumpily as she wasn't usually awake at this time.
"I've just been accepted for that job i start in two days so i might leave tonight so i can sleep on Tuesday"
"Oh...uh great!...I will miss you you know"
"Yeah.. same"
*5 hours later*
All my things were packed and in my car and I was ready to go, ready to start a new adventure, a new life, a fresh start. All through my packing I kept on asking myself if I really wanted to do this and i did I really did!
So I said my goodbyes and started to drive to my new life.
I guess you could call it running- running from my problems running from everything. But I was okay with that! I can only Imagine all the possibilities that was waiting for me there in Vegas. Everything sounded much better there than here with a job i didn't even want to do and a pig of an ex boyfriend i just wanted to go- forever and not come back.
I made it! I was here! Now I had to find somewhere to stay for the night. I was so unorganized. I wasn't even remotely organized at school, I mean i always lost my homework and never had a pen of my own. I'm surprised I even got good grades to be honest. Wow! This place was magical at night, I could tell i was gonna love it here. Driving through the city I found a nice hotel just a few streets from my new workplace!
It was perfect here! The hotel wasn't that bad either. I left my stuff in my car and headed up to my room I could not believe this was really happening right now. I just lied on my bed too tired to get dressed as it was already 4 o'clock on Tuesday! and i just lay there feeling my eyes shut and I just couldn't wait for tomorrow,To start my new job, ti start my new life.
Before i knew it it was Monday afternoon. Wow! I really did sleep long, longer than i thought. I dialed room service and Ordered some food. After eating I jumped into the hot steamy shower Practically washing of my past life.
Getting dressed I stuck on a Pair of skinny jeans and a black tank top. was I dressed OK? I asked myself not sure how to dress for this job but i figured I was ok for today. After plaiting my hair I walked out of my room out of the hotel into my new life
*At the lab*
Wow! The lab was really busy and I just couldn't wait! I walked over to the desk where a lady with blonde hair was sat and nervously said "Hi, I'm looking for Gil grissom? In starting today in the graveyard shift "
"Please take a seat sweetie" she replied with a smile while dialing a number i could only presume was grissom's.
Five minutes later a guy probably in his 40's with glasses came through, he had a young face but his eyes weren't old but I guess you could call them wise."Yes that's me" I said eagerly
"Good, your here,follow me"
He leads me into his office and hands me my stuff for the field and turns around and asks me If i can start on the field tonight after I have had a tour of the lab "erm yeah that's fine " I replied politely
Just then grissom shouted "Greg!" I was really hoping it wasn't him but when I looked around IT WAS!
It was the same guy I had met at work that night.. his hair was different though but he had the same big brown eyes and that small cute smile.
""Yo whats up griss" Greg said before looking at me with a confused face "Umm hey...Jess what are you doing here?"
"umm I work here now"
"Wait you two KNOW each other?!"
"Yeah griss she waitressed me the other day"
"Well you two know each other so Greg, you wanna give her the tour around the lab?"
"Yeah sure I need to drop these results off to Catherine so we can go the long way"
As we began walking Greg turned around "Hey you never told me you were coming to Vegas?"
"Yeah I didn't know then OK and you never told me you were going to change your hair?" Then a voice piped up "He changes his hair more than he changes his pants" This voice was coming from a male who I could already tell hated Greg. Just as I was about to turn around I heard greg whisper "That's Hodges he doesn't like people who are associated with me so careful"As we got to the end of the lab I saw a woman blonde hair blue eyes standing there staring at me. "Hey Catherine two things for you. Number one meet Jess she's new here on the graveyard shift and number two those DNA samples are a match!" "Great, speak later Jess!"
"She's been on that case all week y'know- lets go wait in the break room because I can guarantee we will get a case in the next ten minutes and I'm guessing you will be working with me" "Ok sure!"
We were only in there for two minutes before grissom came in giving us a triple homicide case to go and investigate. As we got into the SUV I caught Greg staring at me in the corner of my eye " What you looking at?"
"Umm er nothing" "Good lets just get to this homicide ok?" "ok.."
