"What is this?" I asked as my Amber, as she slammed a huge stack of books on my the table in front of me.

" Your new job!"

"My new what?"

"Job! You know what that is right honey?" Amber asked innocently.

"Job? But this is paper Amber?"

"Idiot! You look for a job in the paper!" she explained lik I'm medically insane.

"Why are you talking like that?" I asked.

"Like you're medically insane? Well Nat that's because you are!" she smirked.

I felt my blood boil.

"This is not funny Amber. A job? I don't need a job. I have my parents to provide for me"

"Wow, lazy bitch much?" Amber said with a smirk.

"Yeah, yeah I'm lazy. I know that since you've never failed to remind me every day for the past decade!" I said waving her away from me.

But Amber didn't have any of it, since she decided that it was right to hit me and just make me more angry.

"Amber! Amber!! For fuck sake you know that I just graduated from a hellhole and need time to chillax and rest right?" I asked faking a huge yawn,"i fell so sleepy mum maybe we'll talk about this tomorrow, or the day after. Or never?" I asked purposely closing my eyelids.

"Seriously, this is like--" Amber paused to check the time on her brand new watch, "one pm in the afternoon" she said with her eyebrows raised.

"Exactly. Which is aslo known as my bedtime, mum. See you tomorrow morning" I said and walked over to my bed.

Amber rolled her eyes, "Fine Nat you can go to bed now. But I'll just have to eat that delicious strawberry shortcake that I made this morning"

"I am not interested, Amber" I replied while blocking my thoughts from remembering all form of delicious cakes.

"Alright, and I'll also have to eat the special pizza, and lasagna and ----"

"Fine, fine Amber, if you really want me to eat I will. I don't really feel like sleeping anymore anyway" I said turning back around and walking out the door. But not before seeing her perform a huge smirk.

We reached down the stairs and I went into the kitchen.

"Uh... Amber?" I asked a frown forming on my face.

"What is it nat" she replied walking into the kitchen with me.

"We is all the food, that you supposedly made this morning?" I asked the as fear of being hungry settled within my inner soul, body and mind.

"What food dear?"

"What? What do you mean what food? You just told me, that there was food" I groaned out, "You said you baked strawberry cake, and pizza, and lasagna and -----"

"Nat, did I really say that. Or are you just imaging all those types of food?" my mum asked.

"But Amber----"

"No but's young lady. You are getting a job. Whether you like it or not" Amber interrupted sliding into the sofa beside me.

I let out a small gasp.

"Why are you gasping?"

"You tricky little bitch. You tricked me" I argued hunger already eating my stomach.

Amber grinned at me like she just won the lottery.

"I know right. That's what Best friend's are for!"

~~~°

Let me tell you, my summer. Is. Officially. Ruined.

And it is was ruined by someone totally unexpected.

No! It wasn't my mum, dad. It wasn't my family. But my trusted, oh how I wish I could take back being friends with Amber, best friend.

Name. Amber.

Truth be told I didn't like my new job. For just a few reasons.

One of the first reasons, is that my best friend . My very sweet, loving, caring, adorable, kind, oh who the fuck do I think that am kidding. If she was all those she wouldn't put me in this torture. So as I was saying my best friend , she got me the job the very next day. And one week into the job, and I completely hate it. Well not completely per se, since I have a few friends who love gossiping and all that.

"Natasha!!" A voice yelled from the staff room.

I rolled my eyes from the counter, and walked inside.

"What?" I asked

"Could you help me with this?" a familiar voice asked.

Ha!

"No way!"

"But it's important!"

"How important?"

"Just come now!"

I sighed and ended my inner conflictiton with my best friend.

"What?" I asked looking over at Amber who had herself running around the staff room like she was about to piss on her body.

"What?"

"I'm about to piss on myself!"

"And?"

"You're so stupid. And you know that right?" Amber paused to give me a long stare.

"What, why are you looking at me likes that?" I asked

"Could you please take my Shit-I mean shift" she corrected herself.

"Fine but on only one condition?" I added.

"Ice---"

"That I buy you an unlimited amount of ice cream?" she responded cutting me off.

"You know me too well. Don't you bestie?" I aks with a small smile.

"I'm proud of yo--"

"Yeah whatever take this" she said and shoved her apron to me, and ran out like her pants were on fire.

I sighed to myself, she definitely owed me a lot of cold ice cream.

I tied the piece of material around my small waist and walked back to the counter.

Best friends they'll make you do anything.

I propped my hands up on the counter my mind lost in thought.

"Dinner for two!" A voice called out to me.

I looked around and found a guy, a very handsome guy who caught my attention.

And it wasn't because he was handsome. If I wanted handsome guys I could always Google it you know.

What causgt my attention was his date. And how he shamelessly cupped her butt in her tight short dress.

Yuck!!!

I smiled at them, keeping my disguist at the pit of my stomach.

Ethan Carson.

I typed on the keyboard and already seeing the reservation.

"Follow me please!" I said as calmly as calm could possibly get.

I heard some grunting some giggling before we finally reached their table.

The golden table.

Why? Well because the table was directly under the magnificent chandelier and who ever had the opportunity to sit under the it. Got a very golden glow.

Hence the name the golden table.

Ethan in all his blonde glory walked over to his date side of the table, and opened her seat for her.

She gave a bright smile which was nearly blinding,as the light from the chandelier reflected it across the seven seas.

Her face lit up brighter, as she sat back down.

Ethan got back to his seat, and gave her a million dollar smile and a wink.

I cleared my throat, "So what would you like to order today?" I asked.

They both leaned in to grab the menu, which might I add was at the exact same time and both touch hands.

Ethan held unto her hand for more than was necessary and kissed it.

I thought it was kinda cute. I wished Dylan would do something as romantic as this for me.

His date allowed him to take the menu first, as she giggled.

"I'll have the stuffed squid with pork, the rigatoni with chorizo and spicy Chipotle, Braised leeks with morazella and fried egg, lamb salad with fregola, smoked pork jowl with pickles and scallop sashimi Meyer lemon confict."

My face broke into a small sweat as I tried to write a the food that he spilled out of the menu.

" Is that all sir? " I asked

"Not quite. I also have Champagne Krug Clos d'Ambonnay" he said passing the menu to his date.

Geez man, might as well buy the whole restaurant if you love food this fucking much.

She collected it with a familiar air of arrogance and flipped through the pages, as I prepared my hand for the one thousand one mile writing.

"Salad, please"

"Excuse me?" I asked surprise filling my body.

"Salad. I'll have a salad" she repeated with a small grunt.

"Just salad?" I asked.

"Yeah. I'm having just salad, do you have a problem with that?" she asked her eyes challenging me.

"No, no, not at all miss" I said and hurried away.

I walked towards the kitchen handing the cook the order.

A few minutes pass, and I grab the large bowls and plates heading towards the couple table.

The whole restaurant is very crowded, but I could see the golden couple from earlier since the chandelier illuminated their figure, making them look truly golden.

I set the bowls of food down, and suppress the urge to throw up right there as Ethan placed his hands on his date, making her moan loudly.

Double yuck!!!!!!

I give them a quick glance to see if they need anything else before hurrying away.

My dirty mind, not needed to be sullied with even more dirt.

I quickly walked away and headed back into the counter.

I had already positioned my arm on top of the counter. My day dreaming already in it's second stage.

"Hey I'm back, met any important customers?" Amber asked as she puts her hand out.

"Eeh, not really" I reply untieing her apron on my body.

"Oh, that sucks" she said with a frown pulling out her phone.

"Yeah and the fact that--"

"OMG!!!" Amber squealed making a few customers look in our direction.

She gulps and blushes before they realise it probably her hormones.

"What?"

"Guess what?"

"What?"

"I said guess?"

"Well I've already guessed

So what are you screaming about?" I asked.

"Well you know Ethan right?" she asked.

"Who's Ethan?"

"Oh Holy Lord of zeus!!" Amber squealed again. Making me consider getting those soundproff headphones I saw last summer.

"Ethan? As in Ehtna Carson? Sex god of all gods? A Prince charming? An appealing---"

"No! I don't and could you please stop with the names. Their making me a little dizzy" I argued.

"Wow!" Amber said sounding genuinely surprised.

"You sure as hell live in a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, don't you?" she asked.

"Well, I do love peanut butter and jelly sandwiches" I added my mind wandering off to a peanut butter and jellies sandwiches land.

"Wow, well someone texted me, and said that he just came to this restaurant. With supermodel candice as his date" she squealed.

"Yeah so?" I asked my hands going up to my ears protecting them from any further damage that my friendshil with Amber had caused.

"It means that he's here Nat. He's my idol, and that means that I can see him face to face. Oh my goodness"

I rolled my eyes at my friend who leaned over at the counter, her eyes looking through every nook and cranny of the restaurant.

I closed my ears again just in time to not hear here murderous squeal.

"OMG, that is him Nat. He looks so good!!"

"Who?" I asked as she turned to me grabbing my face and then shoving it in the direction of the golden table.

"Oh" I said with a sigh.

"What do you mean oh? Nat that Ethan Carson. A literal god, and all you have to say to his beauty and handsomeness is oh? Wow, I'm disappointed Nat. I expected better" Amber rants off.

I roll my eyes, "He good looking Amber, don't get me wrong. But I don't know. I'm just getting real bad vibes from him" I shrug.

"Nat, you get bad vibes from every one other than yourself and Dylan" Amber retorted.

"No! That's a lie. I don't get bad vibes from you, or my mum, or my dad or from--"

"Whatever" Amber said cutting me off,"You think I can get him to screw me?" Amber asked.

"He has a girlfriend" I deadpanned

"Really, are you the lucky winner?"

"No, I just saw him with a really hot date. So of course she has to be his date" I said overcoming a harsh blush.

I looked back at the couple who was now in front of me.

"Wait a second let me just get th--"

"Here" he said slapping a cheque on the counter before walking off, his hot supermodel in his hands giggling.

"Well that's a shame. I would have loved to talk with him" Amber said from beside me.

I lifted up the check with a little bit of a surprise.

Eight thousand dollars.

Amber took the paper in my hands as her eyes scanned it.

"Nice" she grinned.

"Is he allowed to pay that much?" I asked,"He ordered a lot of money, but I'm not sure that it was up to Eight thousand dollars?"

"Eeh, who cares anyways. This just means more money for us, and less money for him" Amber said running back into the staff room.

I just rolled my eyes and followed her.
