Chap. 31
Bob's pov
I grinned at Alan behind the cash register. He was glaring daggers at me, Landon, and Kaden. Landon was a snickering mess beside me.
"How can I help you?" Alan practically snarls at us.
"I think we need your manager." Kaden replies with a straight face, as he glances around.
"NO!" Alan says moving in Kaden's way so he couldn't look, before clearing his throat. "I apologize." he mumbles.
Kadem gave Alan a curt nod. "Well I would hope so, it is a holiday week. Would hate for it to be spoiled already." he now hums as he takes out his wallet. "So, can you greet me correctly now?"
Thankfully, their wasn't really a line. Or I would have urged Kaden to leave Alan alone and miss this beautiful scene about to unfold in front of me. It was mostly thanks to Kaden scoping the place out a few times before we came to surprise Alan. He knew when times were less busy better than google could tell.
Alan mutters under his breath while squirming a little, before letting out a sigh then replacing it with a wide smile. "Welcome to Floppy Burger, we'll hop our way to get what you wish. Can I take your order?"
Landon bursts into tears laughing, covering his mouth to not disturb those that are working and eating. Kaden and I are snickering as we look at the menu.
"I guess I'll get a Floppy Cheeseburger....I hope it taste good." Kaden mutters the last part a bit quietly, which Alan shoots him a glare.
"Anything else sir?" Alan says between his teeth.
"Two Floppy Cheese Doubles for me, put everything on it." Landon says still laughing a little.
"So where's your mascot?" I ask, only for Alan to glare more directing it to me.
"Floppy is busy right now, can I take your order?"
"So rude, I think we should take our business elsewhere." Kaden replies with narrowed eyes on Alan.
"Sorry for my behavior, just the cold getting to me." Alan mutters.
"I'll take the Floppy Chicken Strips, honey mustard and barbeque." I say rolling my eyes.
"You mean Flop-Que and Floppin' Honey-Mu." Alan says grinning at me as I glare at him.
"Now you're enjoying your job, we didn't come for this." I scoff as he rolls his eyes smirking.
"Any drinks with that you three?" Alan hums tapping his fingers on the counter.
"Three lemonades- oh sorry, we meant three Floppin' Lemonades." I say rolling my eyes.
Alan stares at me for a moment. "It's just lemonade, you weirdo." he replies before yelling back our order to the cooks.
Kaden and Landon laugh while patting my back. I huff pushing them away as we walk to the side where we can wait for our order. I get a good look at Alan. He's wearing purple and red, with bunny ears on his hat. And underneath his uniform he's wearing a black long sleeved shirt for the cold. I buried half of my face in my coat, but heat was already rising to my face.
I'll admit it, he looked kinda good in his lame uniform.
To fight off my embarrassment I decided to target it somewhere else- someone else. I pulled my scarf down a little, ignoring the customer Alan was now speaking with completely.
"That uniform is a bit tight on ya!" I announce with my hands cupped.
Alan's face goes beet red, as some others give him or me weird stares. But mostly him, and some others laughed or smirked. Alan glared at me, before apologizing to the customer as he pulled his hat down to cover his face a little.
This has been a little thing going on between us, and I couldn't completely explain why. But it was happening, and it made me feel better in a way...I suppose. Just friendly teasing.
Kaden and Landon looked at each other then at me. I couldn't tell what kind of look they were giving me. And it made me squirm and look away. It only reminded me of being picked on by bullies, except I usually knew what they probably were going to do, say, or thinking.
"How long is our orders gonna take?" Landon finally says groaning, only to get a glare from Alan as he works with another customer.
There was now a line, but since we were there first, hopefully it wouldn't be that long. After that customer, Alan handed us our orders and pointed out some tables we could sit at. Before we left to sit down, Kaden got his attention.
"We're gonna do Karaoke on Christmas Eve possibly, maybe some other stuff too. If you're not working we should all hang out." Kaden suggests and Alan sighs with a nod before shooing us off, but it doesn't stop there.
"I would also love to see Floppy." I say making puppy eyes, which Alan flips me off when the other customers doesn't seem to be paying attention.
"Rude!" I scoff before walking to a table with Kaden and Landon.
We all are eating our food, cracking jokes. And surprisingly, the food is warm. I might would even say hot, and it tastes good. Someone nearby has a rib-sandwich, and it's mouthwatering. I guess I would order that next time, it better taste as good as it smells.
"Thanks for paying, sorry I didn't have any cash with me." I mumble to Kaden, before dipping my last chicken strip in the honey mustard.
"Yeah, I never have money on me." Landon says between chews, which Kaden and I make a face when we see him chew his burger into tiny bits.
"You just never have money, and you're disgusting." Kaden replies shielding Landon's mouth from our view, before glancing at me. "You're welcome."
All of a sudden, heavy footsteps are coming our way. We all turn our heads to see a huge Rabbit in a purple and red uniform walk over. The dead eyes stare directly at me, making me shutter. Then my hair is ruffled by the huge hand. I suck in my breath, trying to fight the urge to kick it right between the legs or stomach. Then the Rabbit nods at Kaden and Landon before walking away.
"That thing just touched my hair, who knows where their hands have been." I shuttered wiping my hair with a napkin.
Landon shivers a little before grinning, "We're all definitely having nightmares tonight."
Sorry for the wait on the update! I try to have 1,000 words or so for each chapter. So when I'm under I don't like to publish the chapter. If you all would rather me to just post the chapter then let me know. Or if you don't mind waiting then also let me know! Thanks for reading ❤
