Hmm. Listening to Liz describe her car trouble I think it definately doesn't sound like a mechanical problem that I can do anything to help at all. Oh well. At least I offered.

She goes away to place my order and I pull out my phone and start leaving a message for one of my friends in the band. Then, I suddenly realize that she's at the register talking to Max. Didn't he leave already? Quietly hanging up the phone, I move up near the counter in time to hear him saying good-bye.

Damn. I bet he came back to pay for the meal he walked out on. I should have made it clear to Liz that I was going to cover that. Then she wouldn't have to be talking to him. I'm about to tell him that I was going to pay, but he actually leaves the Crashdown. Okay fine.

I smile at Liz. I'm really looking forward to seeing her tonight. "Hey," I say as Max leaves. "I would have covered his meal. I should have said something." I want to say something more, something about how great she looks or the party, but nothing comes to mind at the moment.

~Liz~

I notice another customer getting ready to walk out which means they'll be coming my way when I see Max glance toward Isabel and Alex.
I nodd. Doesn't sound exciting at all....but then what she just

"Well...I'm sure your very busy so I guess I'd better go...don't study to hard ok?" He says with a smile and I give him a nod, smiling back. "I guess I'll see you tommorow, Liz." He waves as he walks away and I can't help but sigh.

"Hey," I hear Zan's voice and turn to smile at him, "I would have covered his meal. I should have said something."

"It's okay. I was planning on setting it aside. Wasn't really worried about it." I tell him and glance toward the customers that we have. "Zan, I'll have your order to you as soon as I can. Looks like I'm the only one on staff at the moment out here." Maria had just simply left and sometimes that girl really angered me when she did that.

I want to stay and talk to Zan, I really do, but I can't afford to get fired. I need this job. Of course, if this night continues the way it is customer wise, I'm going to need a nice long shower too instead of the quick one I'm going to get. "I'll definitely talk to you later, Zan." I tell him, feeling bad that he's trying to converse and I don't have the time I'd like.

The customers come up and I ring them out before walking over to the table where Alex had now joined Isabel and Tess, "What can I get for you today?" I ask. My plan is to get their orders, turn them in, get Michael's order and by the time I'm done, Zan's meal should be up.

I should be taking time to enjoy my giddy moment but it's not exactly happening just yet. Maybe I'll manage when dinner rush is over to have a quick break and go into the back to enjoy the moment.

"Hey, Parker! We're ready for desert!" I hear the table of jocks from earlier say and sigh, turning to look at them.

"I'll be with you guy's in a moment." I tell them before looking at Tess, Isabel and Alex again.

Behind me the same guy who'd been the spokesperson made another snide comment, "Yeah, you'd enjoy being with all of us, Parker." I choose to ignore it. Those jerks are not worth my energy.

I watch Liz hurry off and I feel terrible. She looks so harried. This isn't fair for her to have to handle it all on her own. I want to help, but I can't exactly take orders. Or maybe I could, but it doesn't seem right, somehow.

What really doesn't seem right is the way those jocks are talking to Liz. "Hey. Knock it off, Jackson," I warn him and his friends as I walk by. My voice is low and I hope it sounds dangerous. I'm no jock but I can't let them treat a friend that way. I give him a glare, letting him that I mean business.

Seeing a newly vacated table, I step behind the counter and get one of the gray plastic basins and a wet cloth. Then I go to bus the table for Liz. After dumping all the dirty plates and utensils in the bin, I take the cloth and quickly wipe it down. I can't fix the girl's car, but I can help her keep up with this. Maybe I can even deliver some food, if she can tell me where it goes. I tuck the bin back under the counter and wash my hands before heading out on the floor again.

Heading back to my table, I notice that Isabel is here with Tess and Alex. Interesting. I didn't think that Alex and Tess really hung out together like this. "Hey Isabel," I say leaning in over their table. "The Valentis are out of town and there's going to be a party here after closing if you want to come."

~Kyle~

Mari left me in charge of getting the party ready! Doesn’t she know I have to get to work soon? No probably not just great and now she’s gone and I’ll have to stay here and watch the Crashdown and be late for work. I look up at the clock, still enough time to call in I decide so I take my plate and head into the back room. After calling and explaining to the boss why I can’t come in I head back out into the dinner.

To find Zan bussing tables and a irradiated Liz taking orders... only Liz taking orders. Oh crap! Liz and Maria were there only waitresses on today now that my dear sister as pulled a Houdini Liz is the only waitress.

"Hey, Parker! We're ready for desert!"

"I'll be with you guy's in a moment."

"Yeah, you'd enjoy being with all of us, Parker."

Zan walks by and I think says something to them but still that just isn’t right. I turn to Rath and Michael. “Could you guys get ready for the party? I can’t just leave Liz to handle all this ok? Now if you would excuse me.”

I walk over to the jocks table really enough is enough. “Alright guys listen up I well not have you talking to one of our workers like that so show a little respect ok? Or get out. Now can I take your orders and leave you boys to behave?”

They grumble and one tells me to fuck off. “Hey do you want your orders? No? Ok then go on and pay for your meal. Don’t forget to give the waitress a tip.” I turn around and start walking away from the table. “Oh and don’t come back until you’ve learned some manners.” I say over my shoulder. I then head over to another to see if they are ready to order.

ooc: I figure that with as busy as Liz is going to be, the orders can all be 'inserted'.... Liz will get Tess, Alex and Isabel's order...


~Liz~


I'm looking at the Evans twins' sister, Isabel and the others at the table with her waiting for their orders when I hear Zan's voice not far away, "Hey. Knock it off, Jackson." Okay, I have definitely got to find out what's going on. I know Zan isn't a bad guy, never have seen him that way, but jumping to my defense, asking me to take part in the party? Was I missing some joke that I didn't know about? Max? Zan? Suddenly, it's seeming as though I'm finally getting somewhere, having the chance to get to know both of the guy's that had caught my interest when I'd first moved into town.

When I looked around, I was surprised to see Zan moving behind the counter and I couldn't stop from watching as he cleared a table and wiped it down. What was he doing? Not that I wasn't glad to have some help. It was amazing that Zan seemed to be going out of his way like this. I look back at Isabel, Alex and Tess and I know I probably look really foolish with the big smile on my face, but I don't care at that moment. "Should I just figure on your usuals?" I ask them, deciding that the question might make things easier.

“Alright guys listen up I well not have you talking to one of our workers like that so show a little respect ok? Or get out. Now can I take your orders and leave you boys to behave?” I turn to see that Kyle is talking to the jocks and sigh. That is exactly what I was trying to avoid. Still, it's nice to see him handling things like that. “Hey do you want your orders? No? Ok then go on and pay for your meal. Don’t forget to give the waitress a tip.” As he walks away, I turn back once again trying to make myself focus. “Oh and don’t come back until you’ve learned some manners.” I hear him say and making a mental note, I plan to thank him later.

After getting the order from Tess, Isabel and Alex, I'm about to walk away from the table to take care of it when Zan walks over and I give him a smile, before turning to go turn in their order. How am I going to be able to repay Zan for the assistance? Not to mention, how am I going to get through the shift without having my attention waver with all these thoughts?

Passing Kyle after handing in the order to Jose, I give him a smile, "Thanks, Kyle." I'll figure out a way to thank Zan for his help when I have a free moment to do so.

"Order up, Parker." I hear Jose call and I know it's got to be Zan's.

"Zan, your meal's ready." I tell him as soon as I get to the window to see that I was right on my guess.

*Zan*

The smile Liz gives me as I return to my seat is more than worth the minor effort of bussing a table. I feel warm all over just thinking about the light in her eyes. She really is a prize. Max is such a dodo for mooning over her for so long and never doing anything. If he doesn't want her, then I don't see any reason why I can't spend a little time with Liz.

As I sit down, Jose calls for an order to be delivered. I look up, thinking that maybe I can help with that, too, but Liz is already at the pass-thru window.

"Zan, your meal's ready." Liz tells me, and I laugh inwardly. I was about to get up and fetch my own meal. Would have made sense to me, but I guess it's a bit late as Liz already has it in her hand.

As she puts in in front of me, I smile at her warmly. "Thanks, Liz. It looks fantastic." Then I push four dollars and change across the table in her direction. "This was on table four for you," I say. I realize now that I probably should have just left it there. I'm not actually completely sure that it wasn't for Maria, although I don't exactly know where she went. Well, I'll do it that way next time, I decide.

Turning a little red, I apologise with a shrug. "I guess I should have just left it there. Sorry."

~Liz~

I set the plate down in front of him as he retakes his seat and he smiles at me which only makes me feel yet another giddy warmth fill me. "Thanks, Liz. It looks fantastic." He pushes some money towards me and I look at him with the question clearly on my expression before he explains, "This was on table four for you."

"Thank you, Zan." I say, the smile never leaving my face as I add, "I appreciate the help. You didn't have to help buss tables, but thanks. It... was really nice." Nibbling my lip, I look at him in silence a moment before I add, "I've got to get back, but... let me know if there's anything I can do to repay you for helping me out." I give a final smile before turning and moving to tables to take more orders, getting myself back to work even though I find myself glancing back toward Zan everytime I have a reason to look in his direction.

With the money he had gotten off the table in hand, I moved into the back and put it seperate from my tips because even though Maria had left, the table had been hers and the tip was supposed to be hers as well. I turned and caught sight of Kyle, walking toward him as he finished taking an order and said, "Hey, Kyle... I've got a deal for you. If you cover the register and help take orders, I'll make sure to get them delivered to the right table, take some orders myself and clean things up." I was close enough to Zan's table that I knew he'd probably heard me and not to mention, I couldn't help myself and turned to smile at him again.

"I've got to get back, but... let me know if there's anything I can do to repay you for helping me out." Liz says with another smile that almost covers the strain of all the work she's trying to do.

"No need to repay me," I say, but Liz is already moving away. I hope she heard me but with the diner busy with customers and her mind on a everything she needs to do, I'm not sure she did. I can see how busy she is so I understand that she can't linger. I was only hoping to offer some additional assistance.

She comes back quickly and stops Kyle to ask him for help. Kyle working the register would be great, I'm sure, but there's a lot of other things to do, I know. Taking orders, delivering drinks and food, refills, bussing tables -- all at the same time. I've seen her do it, but that doesn't mean she should have to. I would want to help even if there weren't a party tonight, but seeing as there is, it's even more important that she's not too worn out to enjoy herself at the end of the night.

"Hey Liz," I say, getting to my feet and turning to where she was talking to Kyle just over my shoulder. "I'll be happy to help out a bit here. I can bus tables and maybe even deliver food, if you want me too." Cocking my head to one side, I add softly. "Fixing the car may be a bit out of my league, but this I can manage." I smile at her letting her know that while my words are meant to be taken lightly, almost joking, I am serious in my offer.

"Hey Liz," I turn as I hear Zan and see him standing, looking at me. "I'll be happy to help out a bit here. I can bus tables and maybe even deliver food, if you want me too." I don't know quite what to say. He's offering to help but I don't see where his helping is going to get him anything. What does he gain from working for nothing? Other then knowing that he's done a good deed? His next words come much softer and the way he cocks his head to the side and smiles at me has my heart rate speeding up even more.

Okay, when I had first seen him and Max, I hadn't been able to tell them apart much. But as I'd grown so had they and most of the time Max's quietness had been something I could feel comforted by. But, when I'd thought of Zan, I'd thought of how different he was. I'd watched him with his band, enjoyed the music and to me Zan had always seemed like the unattainable because he nearly always had a girl on his arm. Of course, he wasn't a player to the extent that Rath was known for. "Fixing the car is a bit out of my league, but this I can manage." Despite the light tone, I can tell he's serious and I can't help but find myself liking this part of Zan.

After a moment of contemplation, I give a nod. "As long as you are certain you want to help... I'm not about to say no. Agnes left already, Tony isn't going to be in for bussing the tables, Maria isn't here and Netti called out so we're going to be swamped until closing more then likely. An extra hand is definitely going to be needed..." I glance at Kyle, wondering what he makes of this and then back at Zan. "Are you completely certain that you want to spend your time working before the party?"

"Hey, Kyle... I've got a deal for you. If you cover the register and help take orders, I'll make sure to get them delivered to the right table, take some orders myself and clean things up." Liz says to me.

“Yeah sure. Sorry about Maria bailing on you.” I reply.

"Hey Liz, I'll be happy to help out a bit here. I can bus tables and maybe even deliver food, if you want me too." Zan says walking up besides. He then whispers something to Liz. Ok why is every one flirting in front of me today? And wait wasn’t Liz just with Max earlier? I head over to the register because I see someone ready to pay.

“Hey Zan if you do help Liz take Maria’s tip money!”
