Take A Back Road
- Chapter two -
I shuffeled over to the warm cozzy dinner, my boss, Mrs. Maconey along with every female waitress as well as customer all stared at Rick. I squeezed in past everyone, trying not to pay attention to my trouble maker brother. I expected the diner to be full off people, it was the holiday season, everyone would be stopping in for coffee or a hot chocolate, I pushed on the door, it wouldn't budge, I shoved on it again, still, nothing.
The sound of footsteps came closer and closer, marching up the stairs, I continued to shove the door, I paused, realizing there was someone right next to me. I looked over my shoulder, then glanced up, to see a pair of bright hazel eyes looking down at me, a long with a perfect smile.
"Lemme help you with that," His voice deep, but comforting, I backed away, he gentley grabbed the knob on the door, turned it, and pulled with such great ease. I looked at the door with a huge sign plastered to it that was clearly labeled "PULL" .
I ran into the employee bathroom, I stared at myself in the mirror, my face bright red. I took two steady breaths, "Inhale. Exhale. Inhale. Exhale." The bathroom door speaked, I pivitted on my heels, it was Rick. I looked around, making sure I was in the womens bathroom, the walls were a soft pink, with a soft yellow trim, and black and white tiles like the rest of the dinner.
"Teaching yourself how to breathe again there Lumina?" He half smiled, and walked over to the sink, straightening is flannel, his head looked up at the mirror, he started to fluff his hair.
"You're worse than a girl, get outta here!" I rolled my eyes and started pushing him out of the bathroom.
