I stood at the the counter in my hat and apron trying not to fall asleep. It had been busy all day but I had spent a good portion of the night rewriting a paper that I didn't feel was up to standard. I hid a yawn behind my hand as I heard the door open and I turned around to wait on the customers and was surprised to see Marc walk in with . I was surprised to see him and he smiled at me as he walked up to the counter.
" Hi."
" Hi."
" You haven't been to a game in almost three weeks. How am I suppose to turn you into a Ranger's fan if you don't come to see us play."
" Sorry. I've been too busy with classes and work to do much of anything."
" Maybe I can take you out to dinner sometime and prove that I'm not such a bad guy."
" I don't know if that's a good idea Marc."
" Why not?"
" I'm not exactly the type that is comfortable going to fancy restaurants or hanging out with celebrities."
" Who said it had to be fancy? We can go anywhere you want. It doesn't matter to me."
" Are you going to order something or not? There is a line forming behind you."
" I'm not moving until you agree." He crossed his arms over his chest and I hated to be bullied but my co-workers were starting to stare and it was getting embarrasing.
" Okay fine, but I get to choose where we go."
I grabbed a scrap of paper out of my apron and scribbled my number on it and shoved it at him across the counter. He gave me a look of triumph as he grabbed it and shoved it into his pocket.
" We're going on the road for a couple of games this week, but I'll call you and try to figure something out."
I nodded as I asked the man behind him what he wanted. I guess going out with him once wasn't going to be that bad.
