Cute guy

2004 Words
“are you sure about this? you don’t have any experience in serving tables and since you can’t marry me, I don’t want to lose my husband” whined Tyra. “Believe me I can do it. I will smile and be polite to your most difficult customers, while taking their orders, please do this for me. I need a husband in a month, and what better way than being a waiter?” Ben was smiling and Tyra was a sucker for his charms even though she knew he had no experience she had to say yes to his dumb idea of being a waiter, and getting married in the same venue as Titus just to stop the wedding. This was not a movie things don’t work out like that, but she knew better than to argue with Ben when he makes up his mind about something. “You better or else when Johnson divorce me I will marry you and you will learn to love me by force or I’m going to spend all your money in one day.” “don’t worry about it, and I will rather die than love you” he joked running away from the angry woman, and Tyra threw a spoon of yogurt she was eating missing him by inches “I’m very lovable. Now go shower we are going to the diner in twenty minutes for a trial run.” She yelled taking another spoon out to finish her yogurt making a mental note to call a cleaning company before they left. Ben did his business making sure to shave after so many months and put in his black jeans and button up shirt matched with white sneakers. He was excited about all of this. He came out of his room smelling fresh and excited about the new adventure he was about to take. “I’m done let’s go, so I can show you what I’m capable of, and soon I will have my husband to be in my arms and registering for our wedding” Tyra rolled her eyes getting out of the door to Ben’s car. They drove to the small diner in the middle of the city, it was created for the city workers since it was in a busy streets, it caters for people who also were attending long court session, and the prices were not expensive making sure anyone can afford it. The car stopped at the black and white diner, and Tyra was still not sure about doing this but Ben was a friend and boss. She didn’t want him back with Titus but she was also hoping he met someone he will like and they can be happy together. She smiled at her thought, cooking up a plan of her own. “If you mess this up I’m going to kill you, and scatter all your remains in the city rubbish bins.” She threatened the higher man. “That’s a threat, and you can go to prison for even saying it in public, but as a friend I promise to be a very good waiter not only for the diner but for you” he came to her side of the car, and kissed her hair before they went inside. They were welcomed by the smell of coffee and baking pies, this diner sold savoury and sweet pies, it was their speciality. Johnson ( Tyra's husband) got the recipe from his grandmother, and the diner had been using it since. The till had a middle age woman with the black and white uniform. And she resembled Johnson a little bit especially their noses and eyes. “Trisha this is Ben, my ex room mate and friend and his going to train to be a waiter, and before you say no. His doing it for free, and I’m sure you will be happy to have extra hands” she smiled as the woman scanned Ben and licked her lips before smiling. “I could really use a extra hand” she seductively said. And Tyra laughed looking at her sister in law who was ready to eat Ben alive. “He plays for the other team, sorry sis” she giggle moving to go to the back where they had new aprons. “All the good ones plays for the wrong team” Trisha groaned continuing to balance the books, she could have done last night but was lazy, and didn’t want to miss her blind date. “Okay, this is it, you still have time to change your mind about all of this including getting Titus back.” “Nope, I’m ready and I can see customers coming in, let go help Trisha before she snacks on me” Ben put on the black apron, and folded his sleeves to his elbows before talking a small note book going to the front. He didn’t miss Trish who was staring at his ass as he passed her, making him wonder. Does he look that perverted when he looks at guys ass. He stopped midway not knowing where to start but a choice was made for him when his eyes were set on the brunet on the corner. He was beautiful, and he couldn’t help but be drawn to him. He was talking to someone but Ben couldn’t see the person yet. But he had questions in his mind. The last person he had dated was Titus and that was when he was in high school. Was his gay radar wrong? But the was only one way to find out. He went to the last table ignoring people who were looking at him waiting for their orders to be taken, and wondering why he was going to the last people to enter the diner. “Good morning my name is Ben and I’m going to your waitress for today” Ben decided to introduce himself when he reached the last table looking at the woman sitting next to him. She was a little older her eyes red, like she was crying. And he couldn’t help wonder what was their relationship. He turned looking at him, and his brown eyes got big as he scanned him, and he smiled knowingly he was not wrong. He was checking him out, and Ben loved it. Maybe it was the fact that he haven’t been looked at like that for almost three years and it warmed his heart. “Mr. Wilson his taking to you” said the woman holding his hand and the cute guy was drawn out of his thoughts looking embarrassed, but for reason Ben didn’t know yet, he didn’t like the fact that the woman touched him, and he didn’t know why. He was never the possessive type, and most importantly, he was still in love with Titus. “What?” the guy finally answered with pink cheeks, and Ben couldn’t help think he looks so cute. Will be blush this much if he kissed him? He wondered but quickly shrugged the thoughts away. “The waiter was talking to you, waiting for your order and you were lost in your thoughts is this about the case? Are you also worried?” said the woman, Ben observed their interactions closely, but by her words she must be his client. “No, I’m mmm.” The guy was trying to talk but he couldn’t stop looking at Ben chest, and Ben smiled and decided to rescue him before he embarrassed himself in front of his client. “As I said before, my name is Ben and I’m going to be your waiter for today, what can I get the both of you?” Ben interrupted because he could clearly see the guy was checking him out, and he was not bad himself. “I’m going to have coffee with a blueberry muffins, and I think Cathy will have a rooibos tea with two blueberry muffins, thank you” the brunet, cute guy finally answered but this time. It was all professional, and Ben didn’t like it at all. “Is that all?” smiled Ben politely not once taking his eyes off of the young guy, and this time he stared back with a blank face, and Ben frowned for some reason seeing him with a blank face didn’t sit well with him, and he wanted to see that cute guy with pink cheeks again. “That will be all for now!” said the guy, and Ben turned back disappointed. It felt like the guy just rejected him, when he didn’t even ask him out, and his chest hurt, and he wondered what was wrong with him. He was doing all this to get Titus back, not to let any good looking guy get to him. He went back to the kitchen, and gave Trish the order. Who saw his sour face. “What’s wrong handsome? Did the Eddie reject you? I can kiss it better” she smiled and Ben actually smiled Trisha was not giving up at all. “Nah, I didn’t ask him out” he pouted. He didn’t know what was wrong with him he never felt like this before. “But you want to? I know Eddie his a good guy, his our regular. Actually I think he lives here but who cares? I can’t say no to business right? I like you handsome but since I know you like him, kiss me and I will make sure you get his numbers” she smiled and Ben laughed at the crazy woman, his never going to give up, was she?. And he smirked agreeing even though he didn’t know what his numbers will do. Other than make him cyber stalk him. “Fine, kiss first, and I will do my best” she smiled and Ben went to her and Trish closed her eyes pouting her lips only to be kissed on the cheek, and she opened her eyes angrily. “What was that?” she almost shouted making Ben laugh, and Tyra to come out of the kitchen with a cup of hot coffee in her hand. Tyra loved coffee, she didn’t care that she just had a cup at her old apartment. “Is Ben quitting already?” she sipped the hot beverage like she already won. Looking Ben in the eyes. “you said, a kiss you were never specific, so I kissed your cheek. You can’t change your mind Trisha. I need them. I did my part of the deal.” Said Ben ignoring his best friend who looked at them confused wondering what they were talking about. And the nit so happy Trish who was glaring at Ben “Fine, but I’m not happy Ben, I’m going to get you for this” she left the till throwing the order slip at Ben. “I take money not slips go give it to the people in the kitchen” Ben laughed at her and passed Tyra going to give them the slip while he waited on the other tables taking their orders, and he tried to listen to what Trisha was saying but he couldn’t hear anything at all. All he could see was the pink cheeks of Eddie making him smile. This man already had an effect on him without even knowing it. “Okay, now I get it.” Said Tyra just when Ben was passing to go get Eddie’s order in the kitchen “I don’t know what you talking about, and I’m at work I would appreciate if you stay in the back you’re distracting me” he passed by, but Tyra was not letting it go. She wanted answers. So she followed him to the kitchen. “you like the lawyer guy who is always here?” it sounded like a statement but Ben knew it was a question. “I don’t know what you talking about” his cheeks was turning pink but he tried to hide the blush. “Ben, please don’t do this. This guy doesn’t deserve someone who is going to toy with his emotions, do it for the right reasons. Please” Tyra begged. “I’m sorry but I’m at work and won’t do this with you. Let me judge if his a good guy or not” he passed her, and Tyra signed this was going to be hard, but she was going to make sure, Ben doesn’t succeed in his plans to get Titus back or get married ever.
