The Lovers

not your cup of tea

The warm breathes escaping your mouth turns to fog but burns like lava against my skin, your chocolate eyes swirl with emotion and they remind me of the soft taste of chocolate, your touch is a crime and yet an obligation in mind, the smirk on your smug face tells me you a tease but the heart beat rejects every discrete word against it. I hate you and yet I know am lying, go….. But I want you to stay, so confused and so right is this fate or the fortune teller’s lover’s card. “Maria…could you please clean up table #12 and get table #4 some napkins please” said Mrs. Brown. Ah sure am right on it” I yelled.Okay so she said clean ….. Boom!!! Slam down I go. I closed my eyes as I braced for impact, which apparently wasn’t coming maybe I have super powers and I froze time … yah right. I opened my eyes and found the most soothing color of brown I have ever seen… well in a set of eyes that apparently looked concerned and worried.Are you alright” a deep husky voice made an appearance “ I hope you not hurt “ no is what I meant to say but my voice got the better of me and I made a squeak and he smiled as in like full teeth smile and it was gorgeous … I jerked out his hands and straightened my uniform . “You should pay attention to your surroundings miss before you hurt yourself” he said in his British accent, I wanted to say thank you but I retorted “I don’t remember asking for advice nor your hand at catching me so why don’t you mind your business and stay out of mine” I was expecting him to look pissed but instead he laughed his head off and complimented me for my joke.Well miss…he said as he dragged on the word expecting me to tell him my name which was not a successful venture, why you ask well because by the time he turned in my direction I was taking long strides away from him making sure to leave allot of distance between us two.I safely got to the counter and went back takings order from the customers till the whole day died. Where do I start, my names are Maria Jade Quincy am a 19 year old waitress and let me tell you it isn’t a fancy job first of all the clients are always right even when they do immoral stuff and don’t get me started off the *** slaps and griping as well as glancing in skirts, I know all of the clients that have stepped in the pages café and I also know the schemes each client plays well that is until Mr. Dante woods came to town.It was a rainy afternoon the right mood to read a sci-fi novel when he came in smelling like a wet dog just don’t tell Mrs. Brown I said that about her country folk cause Mrs. Brown is also British, back to Mr. woods he came straight to the counter like some country sheriff looking for trouble makers and only to look me straight in the eyes and say “MATE”Now am no Australian but am guessing that means buddy… oh well long story short his has been the thorn in my side since then.The doorbell rang signaling a customer’s entrance well … hell here I come ,I say to myself in half depressed and half crying attitude well knowing this was the beginning of a yet tiring day. As the doorbell rang it let me know that the lass customer just left which made me breathe out in relief as I stretched my sides before meeting face to face with Dante who apparently had a sly smile plastered on his face then said “ what I would do to go to bed staring into those beautiful jade green eyes for the res…I cut him off before he could finish “ seriously Dante don’t you have some wife and kids waiting for you or something ‘ I looked at him trying to chase him away for the one hundredth time, ‘well … he began. ‘ the only children I have are the unborn ones crying out to their father from your womb he finished with a full teeth smile . I blushed and I didn’t want him to see that and so I punched in the face. ‘Stupid jerk, I can never marry you I retorted even though I perfectly Knew my face was as bright as the crimson moon he still couldn’t see….Oy... mi lady I believe you have broken my nose again for fifth time this week’ he said smiling as blood began dripping from his nose … I took out my handkerchief and was about to wipe his nose when he grabbed it from my hand and stuffed it into his pocket …pervert you just stole my … I began then he turned to me with a mischievous grin ‘you wouldn’t want Emelia to find out the you have broken my nose five times this week would you….. he dragged on he knew perfectly well all matter concerning Mrs. brown I am weak and so I said nothing and that faithful day he stole my bubble mint handkerchief.After changing in the store room I walked out to meet with Dante who has apparently always been waiting for and well always drops me closer to home, Home is it thought…….Jade!! ….Dante yelled. Hey stop screaming am right here okay...Right I was saying we here. I stared out the window oh we are here the blue broken down bus station where I always insist Dante drops me at which he agrees only in I let him watch me walk away till I reach my door that is. I get out of the car I turn around to see him pulling out pop corns and a blanket … pervert you really enjoy staring at my butt don’t you .. well he trailed off I can’t say I don’t he says and I can’t help but feel my tummy warm up and say goodnight and walk away as I reach my door step I open the door and let myself in without looking behind me, I walk straight to my bedroom to brush my teeth and retire to bed where I drift quietly just like my life…‘Well her bedroom light just went out, I think she is probably asleep ….. I pull my car seat back to adjust myself easy while pulling to comforter towards my sheer body. Mate….Xavier says in the back of my subconscious, I under you want to hold her but you must understand our ways are different from those of humans and you and I both know its her from her imperfections to every sublime detail, she’s back Xavier that’s why I will always be outside here keeping an eye on her this time hades wont ….I walk straight to the car and knock on the window ….. a sleepy Dante look at me with sheer delight , come in for a shower and breakfast , oh mi lady is there something good about today that you seemingly want me in your house.I don’t care Dante don’t come if you don’t want to , I hear the shut behind me and Dante wrapped in his ash grey Comforter as we walk to my house , I take him to the room where I show him the bathroom and leave quickly before he says anything totally pervy .
