Chapter 6: Bakery Encounter
Instead of heading home after the incident, I take a few backstreets and come to my job. I'd hate for someone from the school to find me here...in a bakery. 'I may work here but that doesn't mean I enjoy people seeing me. Here's to hoping no one does, for a lonnngg time.' I feel a shiver go down my back at the thought.
Arriving, I pull on my apron and head to my locker, placing my satchel and bag if notebooks next to it. I place my hair into a bun and then wash my hands, putting on my gloves last after I clock in. "Oh hey Tinie. How 're ya?" A middle age Spanish woman that owns the shop, aka my boss, greets me with my nickname from her.
"Hey Maray, I'm good." I wave with my good hand, making sure to hide my bad hand behind me. "Okay Tinie, today you can bake cakes for half your hours then take register, kay?" I nod and she walks to the front while I head to the back.
Lexi's P.O.V
I drive Ciel to his house, dropping off Alois with Claude before we go. "I'm guessing you're another....Sebastian fangirl." He shivers as I wink, "ya know it patchy." I park in the driveway of a huge 3 story house then I sweat-drop, 'only they would go this far.'
Ciel opens the door calling out Sebastian's name, "welcome home...son." He says after seeing me. "She knows Sebastian, she wanted to meet you." Ciel rolls his eyes and I'm to busy watching Sebastian. "Um....okay?" He replies in a question.
"B-Bassy...." I breathe and poke him. He looks disgusted, taking a step away from me. "Miss, I do request you refrain from calling me that." I sigh dreamily. "This is.....awesome!!" I squeal and Ciel smirks at Sebastian's discomfort.
"C-Can I....hug you?" I ask shyly and Ciel orders Sebastian to let me. "Yay!" I give him a death hug and he looks a bit blue when he's released. "You don't think I killed him, do you?" Ciel is literally shaking with held in laughter.
"Can I work with Sebby-chan?" I ask hopefully and Ciel nods with a amused smirk, "as long as you want." I hug him too and pull Sebastian away.
Tayla's P.O.V
I had baked 10 full cakes, 50 cupcakes, and 5 batches of cookies. I let them cool and decorated them all before setting up a display casing. While being cashier. I hear the door bell chime and I hear a familiar laughter.
"Claude, you should've been there! Ciel looked so scared when Lexi yelled at us!" He giggles. "I do believe you both were pale when I saw you." Claude's tone is teasing. "Shut up Claude." Alois.
I bend down behind the part of the display that isn't see through. "Hello?! Anyone here?!" Alois shouts. "Get the front Tinie!" I curse in my head and ruffle my hair so that they can't see my eyes and I put a cloth over my mouth.
"Uh...h-hi! How c-can I-I help y-you!" I stutter in an excited tone, trying not to act like my usual self. "Yes, I'd like vanilla cupcakes and a batch of chocolate chip cookies." He orders and I move quickly, trying to make sure he doesn't know who I am.
"Oh and add in some cheesecake as well." Alois glances at me lazily with half lidded eyes and then goes back to being excited with Claude. I quickly take what he requested and wrap them in the proper boxes, placing them on an large bag.
"Oi, are you almost done?!" Alois asks impatiently and I bring the bag to them. "Yeah, h-here ya g-go." I pass him the bag and he peers at my face or cloth, rather. "Do I know you from somewhere?" I shake my head gently so that the bandana doesn't fall off.
"No, s-sir. Don't th-think so!" I say, bring up my voice to sound higher than my usual tone. "Hmmm," his eyes narrow slightly then brighten back up. "Okay then! Bye! Come Claude!" He skips out the door and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.
"That was crazy." I mumble, pulling off my mask and pushing my hair back with one hand. Collapsing on the counter, I sigh and close my eyes. "It was quite peculiar wasn't it?" I hear Alois' voice above me and I snap my eyes open to see him hovering over me.
I face-palm and bang the back of my head on the countertop. 'SO. FREGGIN. CLOSE.' I think in my mind. "O-Oh.....um, h-hi?" I give a small shamed smile. Alois glares and I flinch, getting off the counter. "Want to tell me exactly why you lied?"
I'm about to answer when the shop door slams open and Kate, along with her clique. Great. "I want a low fat strawberry cupcake and a small- Emo girl?" She cuts herself off and laughs. "Wh-What's so f-funny?" I ask quietly.
"Wow you actually talk and you work in a bakery of all places! This is hilarious!" I bite my lip and let my bangs shroud my face as her and her cronies laugh. "Anyway, I'd like to get that cupcake and a water." I nod and type it into the register.
"Th-That'll b-be $3.75." She hands me a five dollar bill. "Here sweetheart, keep the change." She pats my cheek and I make sure they can't see my eyes. I pull out the exact change and place it on the counter, grabbing her cupcake and water to put in a bag.
"No, I don't want a bag. Wouldn't want to waste your resources." I ignore her and place the bag on the counter. "Here's a tip sweetie, try not to cry to much tomorrow in school." She pushes the tip jar off the counter, walking off as it shatters.
"Hey!" Alois calls out pissed off. "Hm? Oh its you! Want to hang with me and my friends?" She gives, what some call her, slut smile. "Sorry you bloody whore, but you just insulted one of my friends and you had better apologize."
She and her cronies gasp in shock when they hear him. "As if I'd ever apologize to her, I have a good mind to make you a enemy of mine as well but you're cute so I'll give you this offer one last time." She forces a smile and Alois smiles back.
He walks over, making her smirk, before his eyes go dark and he takes the cupcake and water from her and smashes the cake in her face and pours water in her hair. Everyone's eyes are widened at the sight. I cover my mouth and shake with silent laughter.
"You just seemed a bit to bitchy so I had to cool you off. It was no problem, really." Her mouth hangs open until she sees me laughing silently. "You are going to pay for this!" She yells at me before hair flipping and leading her group out.
"Damn, that was hilarious." I laugh, surprising Alois. "Y-You didn't stutter." Alois states in shock, I shake my head. "No, I-I didn't." I let myself go back to stuttering lightly. "Don't try that. Why do you stutter anyways?" I shake my head, the smile now gone from my face.
"None of your b-business. N-Now if y-you're done, h-have a nice day." I fake smile and he rolls his eyes and walks out with Claude. I sigh and slide to the floor, my back against the counter.
"Well that was entertaining."
'Maray!'
