Luciano’s pov
The theater was already full with people by the time we got there, Frank bought us two popcorn buckets to make a challenge. He said that I would have to let him give me a French kiss if he wins, before I could protest, the movie started. We just looked at each other to immediately start to devour the popcorn like wild animals. After five minutes, guess who won, I did!
Apparently, he really wanted that kiss because he was so mad, I just laughed at his pain to instantly shut up after someone behind us shushed me. Now it was his turn to laugh but got shushed as well, ha! take that bastard. After that, he put his arm around me and got comfortable, I liked it so I let him do it.
After about two hours the movie ends, it was very good, well written and great actors plus the plot twist, it was just awesome. How could David have missed this? …… why did I even question that, I already knew the answer.
‘’Well that was fun, so sad is over’’ I told him walking out of the theater to later stop when he grabbed me by my hand.
‘’Who says is over, aren’t you hungry? Because I know this coffee place, you’ll love it. They serve really yummy milkshakes, I know you like those.” Frank said rising his eyebrows, how did he know I like milkshakes? Oh! David, I’m going to kill him. God knows how many things about me he has told to the boy in front of me.
‘’How do you know that?” I asked him.
‘’Let’s just say I have my resources” I knew it, it was David, who else.
‘’Hmmm, ok let’s go then.”
He smiled to later say ‘’after you’’. I smiled back at him as I started walking towards the exit when suddenly I feel a hand grab me by my waist. It was Frank’s, not going to lie, that made me gasp and jump out of surprise. I looked up at him with my face being redder that a tomato. ‘’ Oh! Sorry, too fast?” he said to me but without moving his hand from my waist. I just try to smile and say that is was OK, he just caught me off guard, I wasn’t used to that.
After about fifteen minutes of driving and talking, we finally arrived to the coffee place, it’s called ‘’Lolita’s’’. I like it already because of that name and how it looks from the outside. But when I got to step inside, I fell in love, it was a 1950’s theme restaurant/café, it looks exactly like in the movies. The floor was covered with red and white squares, the walls were decorated with 1950's photos which I’m guessing were taken in that same era. It also had this bar with gray metal chairs that are red on top, the tables cloths were covered with tiny red and white cubes and in its center, it had the typical 1950s little packages of salt, sugar and pepper. Behind those, there were the ketchup and mustard bottles. Lastly, the music, it was a mix of the 50's with a touch of modern music.
‘’You like it huh?” Frank asked me when he saw me looking around in all directions.
‘’Like it? I love it, this place is delightful!'' I exclaimed without looking at him, I was too busy admiring the place.
‘’Good to hear that babe, come on let’s get a table”
The moment I heard the word babe my eyes immediately set on him. Apparently, he didn’t realize what he just said because he’s walking to an empty table, he later waves to where I am standing so I can go and seat with him. I’ll let it slide, knowing how overconfident he can be, he probably didn’t notice……... at least, I would like to think that. I walked my way to him on the table and sat in front of him. After a couple of minutes, a male waiter comes to our table to take our orders.
I’m still looking through the menu when suddenly I froze in my chair as I listen to the waiter introduce himself. ‘’Good evening gentleman, my name is Jayden, I will be serving you tonight. Would you like something to drink before you order?” he said getting ready to write in his little notebook. Frank started telling his order as I leaned forward to see more of his face. He had the same black wavy hair, the same hazel eyes, his deep voice sounded identical, his lips were as pink and the cute tiny mole is located on the exact spot I remembered it to be. On top of that, his name is Jayden which starts with a ‘’J’’ Mr. J…………… Oh God! is him! it has to be him!!
When he finished with Frank, he looked at me to take my order, when I fully saw his face the world stopped right there. ‘’He is gorgeous’’ I screamed internally. My heart was beating as fast as a rocket going to space. His eyes were wide open, I don’t know if it was just me but, he was looking me with the same intensity I was looking him. The whole scene looked like we were trapped in a spell, just the both of us, we just stare at each other for like I think a whole minute before Frank spoke to pop the bubble we were in.
‘’Babe, are you going to order? He’s waiting for you'' Frank said with a tone of anger in his voice.
‘’Right, right. I uhh …. I-I would like a b-bacon cheese burger and a c-chocolate milkshake… please’’ I babbled to Jayden. He then started writing my order, I could tell his hand was shaking a little. Why though?
Did he perhaps recognize me as well? But my face was totally covered, only my eyes could be seen. Was he that observant to the point he realized the same blue-eyed guy he fought was me? I have to know, I won’t let him go this time. When he finished writing, he bowed his head as he told my date he will be back with our drinks.
He then disappeared to the kitchen. I know I’m on a date right now but I have to make an excuse to go talk with our waiter. I like Frank, but he doesn’t make my heart beat as fast as Jayden does. There’s just something about him, I don’t know what it is but I’m willing to search for it and have the answer of what I’m feeling.
