The Jealous Guy

The
whole world had discovered his favorite little vegetarian café, and while
normally Sydney Huber would be pleased for the owner, a lean string bean of a
man named Alisdair, today he was irritated beyond measure. It was the final
straw on a day that had gone from bad to worse.
"Oh.
Yes. Would you like to sit at the counter since it's just you?" Her smile
grew, white teeth gleaming, painted lips stretched wide. Her head tilted
inquisitively to the side.
"No.
I would like to sit in Max's section, as usual." He glanced around the
room, as if saying his name would conjure the man.
"I'm
afraid Max's section is full. We're very busy today. I'm sorry." She held
the menu to her chest and jerked her pointed little chin toward the counter.
"There are several single seats at the counter." Several bar chairs
were empty there, as she had said, but a good dozen people were packed in at
the space, sitting practically elbow to elbow. The older woman who usually worked
the counter had been replaced by another young girl, this one dark haired and
pale skinned. If he sat there, he wouldn't even be able to catch a glimpse of
Max in the background, the entire restaurant would be at his back.
"No,
Barbie. I'll wait for a table in Max's section to open up." Fuck. Hopefully that would be soon as he
didn't have time for an extended lunch today, not with his superior breathing
down his neck for the teller audits.
"My
name is not Barbie." A petulant tone replaced the bubbly good will in the
blonde's voice. The smile disappeared and the blue eyes narrowed slightly. The
thin blond pointed to her name tag. "I’m Kate."
He
sneered blackly at her. "I'm not paid to remember your name, but you're
paid for customer service. What kind of hostess doesn't remember the
preferences of a customer who eats in their restaurant daily?"
A
familiar tanned hand reached across Sydney and plucked the plastic coated menu
from Kate. "One who just started yesterday?" A frisson of awareness
prickled its way across Sydney's skin, weaving a trail of heat and butterflies
from the point of contact to his stomach and groin. His mind leapt for the
distraction, his body yearned for more contact.
A
blush heated his cheeks as he realized Max had overheard him being snotty to
the hostess, who was beaming worshipfully at his favorite waiter, hell, his
favorite person, again. "Thank you so much Max. I tried to tell him your
section was full."
your a busy Bee but that good for me!! LOl The story looks good I cant wait to read it!
