The contract

Chapter 1

Mondays, who likes Mondays Melanie thought to herself as she pushes herself to go to work at the diner a few blocks away from her tacky apartment. "You have to do this Melanie, once you've complete college then you'll make your way to the big leagues" Melanie whispers her little mantra which she's been telling herself each morning.

Arriving at the diner the first greeting she receives is from creepy guy Tom, at least that's the name she calls him behind his back and to herself cause she has no friends. The day goes by pretty fast and before you know it, Melanie has an hour left at the diner.
Creepy guy Tom makes his way over with his empty tray which you were gonna collect after collecting a few more table. "Thank you, I was gonna come to you next" she says trying to sound as chipper as she could.
"It's no problem" creepy guy Tom says trying to match her tone. As she collects the tray his hand brushes hers and his sweaty residue remains on her finger, she brushes it on her apron and smile without trying to look disrespectful.
"Have a good one !" She yells as he leaves.

The diner is almost empty as the chime of the restaurant door alarms you that a new customer has enter. Melanie turns around quickly to see who has entered the building when she slips on a bit of spilt coffee but, instead of hitting the hard ground she's met with soft warm hands.
Melanie looks up to thank her savior and is met with the most beautiful woman she's ever seen.
"You okay there sweetheart?" The woman asks with a smile that'd lighten any darkness.
You're caught staring when you see her smirking at your response to seeing her.
You shuffle to stand on your feet before nodding and stuttering "uuu-um.. I-I'm okay, thank you"
You run to the back where the staff bathroom is located and try to calm your breathing..
"She's a girl Melanie! Calm down!" You yell while splashing cold water on your face. Once you're cool and calm enough you gather your stuff and go back to the front to take her order but the minute you reach to the front you see her laughing and talking to a guy but, his back was turned in your direction. As you approach the table her eyes caught yours and she smiles mischievously, knowing the effect she had on you.
Reaching the table you repeat the same thing you've been saying since the beginning of your shift
"Hi, I'm Melanie, your waitress, may I have your order please"
Your attention finally breaks from the gorgeous woman and your now looking at the man who's sitting directly infront of her and your tongue seem to be stuck in your throat. These people are so beautiful! It seems surreal!
"You're right honey, she is a doll" he smiles and looks you up and down.
"I'll have whatever my beautiful wife is having" he says barely audible and wow did that make me have to squeeze my thighs together.
Wait! Did he just say wife, I took a closer look at the woman he's with and is now noticing the beautiful diamond sitting on her finger.
"Wow" I whisper without realizing.
"You like what you see sweetheart?" She whispers.
Oh my gosh, these beautiful specimen are doing a lot tonight.
Another sleepless night for me!

"Would you like some water? Coffee? Tea?"
I ask trying to get away before I do or say something I'll regret.
"Coffee please doll" the handsome man replies.
"Coming right up" I squeak and run towards the kitchen

The coffee is ready and I'm pouring it at the table when the woman says something very random
"Nothing I want is on this menu"
She says while looking at me. I shrug because we only have what's on the menu.
"And what would you like my love?" The handsome man asks
"A brunette with the cutest smile" she says loud enough for only us to hear ..
I take a minute before I realize she's talking about me.
I feel the heat rush to my cheeks and before I know it I'm running away from their table.

With only 3 minutes left of my shift I start to change and put my work uniform in my locker. I decide to use the public bathroom to fix my hair in a messy bun and adding some lip balm to my crusty lips.
"Todays my lucky day" I hear from one of the stalls and I look to see the beautiful female earlier.
"I'm sorry?" I ask

In two steps she's directly infront of me "you're so cute I could eat you all up. Where are you from doll?" She ask
"Around here" I tell her not giving too much information.
"Need a ride home?"
"I'm okay, thank you" I respond a bit too quick for my liking.

"I'll definitely see you around then doll" she responds with a smile.
