Me = Imagination Stage Continued

Sooooo I promised that I would write a longer mini story next time. And I did see Ryan's girlfriend working at Ten Ren's. That part is true. The other parts are just made up because I want to one up him. I apologize for my competitive personality.
-------------------------------

She strolled in wearing a black faux leather jacket from Forever 21 spotted with raindrops and an indifferent expression on her face. Running late and it might take awhile. She was smart enough not to ask just how long it would take for her friend to arrive to come pick her up, but it didn’t matter all that much. Not amused, she sat herself at the table closest to her and fished out her iPod out of her bag. After she looked up from her iPod, there were already two things upon the table. A menu and the specials menu decorated in the seasonal red and greens. Now amused, she glanced around.

Quick service. Wow.

She opened the menu and scanned through the drinks selecting her usual preference.

Asian places really are open on major holidays. Wow.

“Hello Miss, can I take your order?” She looked up from the list of laminated choices.

GOOD GOD. SHE WORKS HERE?! WOW.

Microseconds of realization suddenly trickled into reality.

“A passion fruit green tea with reduced sugar.” You lucky bitch.

Time ticked by as she gazed over at the door with slight interest. The waitress returned with her drink wearing a sweet smile on a cute face. If SHE was here, then HE would be here soon, considering that it was almost time to end shifts. The front door bell rang as a signal of a new customer and a chorus of 歡迎s. Speak of the devil.

“Hey honey!” She glanced up to a grinning widely tanned face with blue green eyes. A couple seconds later, she found herself locking eyes with just that face. His eyes widened and hers blinked innocently. He gave her a cocky smirk and then the situation finally was upon her. He was here to pick up his obviously curvier, bigger chested, working girlfriend in front of his ex-interest slash ex-best-friend. She narrowed her eyes slightly, but in the end she felt her left eye twitch just the slightly bit. He strolled up next to the counter and leaned over, just in time for her to look away and mentally smack herself.

Don’t stare. It’s rude. What the hell. You already did, you nosy loser. Might as well enjoy the rest of the show.

They did an absolutely adooooorable Eskimo kiss, which left him promptly alone and with her scurrying off and untying her apron in the process. He turned around and threw her a polite smile and a little wave, one of those waves that involved a flicking of your wrist because you want to act cool. A slight frown crawled across her face. Damn lucky girl, had she actually thought that he was immature and a coward when they were little?

Another little ring from the door came and her eyes grew bright from the next customer walking in. Perfect timing. A shadow of a smirk flashed for the quickest moment and was replaced by an excited grin.

“哥哥!” She bounded up to him and gave him a big hug, as he gave her a quick peck on her head. “Don’t you look spiffy today?” Which is definite plus to the perfection. Dress shirt and dress pants. Nice. She secretly congratulated herself on her previous choice of outfit and boots and the way they would clack on the flooring when she walked out with this older, friendly guy. But HE didn’t have to know that now did he?

“Hey we’re going to be late to Tony’s, so let’s go. Wanna go get your drink?” She happily nodded and went back to the table to pick up her passion fruit green tea and left a five dollar bill on the table as she looked up and nodded at him staring, one of those nods that involved a quick raising of your eyebrow because you want to act cool.

“See ya, Ryan.” Clack. Clack. Clack. Ring.
