481 Open Very hard. Also feel free to flirt with him. That's where the fun is. *shot* | LET IT BURN SINGING SONGS OF TRUTH AND All that's left is a shade of blue Jeremiah was tired. It was pretty obvious as the man first awoke swaddled in blankets like it was some sort of cocoon, his crimson eyes blinking tiredly before he realized that the music that had awoken him was coming from his alarm, and that was when he fumbled over to the side to turn it off. The shower had revived him slightly, as had a whiff of his brother's coffee as the younger got ready for his own day, and with a hurried ruffle of the other's hair, he had darted out of the door, half of a bagel clutched in his teeth. He ate it hurriedly before he turned his attention towards gathering his hair together for a braid, getting it started as he made his way down into the subway. He settled on a seat, bringing his hair over his shoulder to finish weaving it together, a soothing action that had him slowly waking up under the florescent lights. He had only just snapped the band into place when the doors opened for his stop, and he was up and running again, darting through the crowds to get to his pride and joy, the Story's End restaurant and host club. It was something that he'd dreamed of for quite a long time, and once he'd stepped inside its warmth, he shivered pleasantly, taking off his thick coat and hanging it up on a hook, next removing the black scarf from around his neck and adding it to the rest. His clothes revealed a fair amount of pale skin, soft cream that was absolutely gorgeous, and he'd hardly stepped into his office before he realized there was a problem. They were short-handed today, and from what he could figure out, the majority of those who were able to cover were home sick with the flu. Some employers would have let the employees suffer and refuse to bring anyone else in, but not Jer. He texted a few of his other workers, asking them if they could make it in, and then he quickly splashed water on his face to make sure he was alert enough and looked okay before he picked up a little pad of paper and a pen, biting his lip as he strode out into the bustling main room, picking up one of the untaken tables and settling on the edge of it, only barely keeping a shy blush from his cheeks. "Welcome to Story's End," he greeted, smiling contentedly with a kind of gentleness to his features that proclaimed its genuineness to anyone who looked at it. "My name is Jer and I'll be your host today. Is there anything that I can get you?" It had been a long time since he'd waited on anyone that he didn't know, but he wasn't going to let that stop him. Besides, how hard could it be, right? |
