“Wow, it’s really snowing out there, isn’t it?” the waitress said as she placed the steak in front of Lance.
“Yes, I hope it stops soon…otherwise we might be able to get home!” Lance responded.
“Yeah, I live on the complete opposite side of town, so it’s going to terrible driving home tonight,” the waitress agreed as she put the chicken fingers in front of their respective owners.
“Let me know if there is anything else you need,” she said as she put down Scott’s burger and fries.
“There is something I would like,” said Yukito in a dignified manner. “I would like to have a different person wait on us. I don’t like the way you’ve been treating us…especially the way you always focus on my Scott!”
At this Scott’s eyes widened. “For the last time kusogakki, I’m not yours!” Scott knew he’d get hell from Master for calling Yukito a “f***ing brat,” but he didn’t care right now.
The waitress stood watching. She seemed like she was going to cry, but she didn’t, at least not yet. “I’ll…I’ll go get the manager then,” she said as she turned and walked off.
“Really? Did you have to do that? What was the f***ing point you stupid prick?” Scott said sternly at Yukito. “That’s it, I’m leaving.”
But, before Scott could detangle himself from Yukito and get up to leave the manager came.
“What is the matter?” the larger, middle-aged man asked when he came upon the table.
“That w**** was making googley eyes at my Scott!” Yukito said as he held Scott even closer.
“For the last time, I. AM. NOT. YOURS!” Scott yelled as he attempted to push Yukito off.
“I don’t quite understand what is going on here? Is this some sort of gay love squabble?” the manager asked half to the entangled pair and half to the other two sitting at the table. “I mean, there’s nothing wrong with gay people…just…I don’t want to get into the middle of this…”
“No, it’s not a ‘gay love squabble,’ they just got into a fight. Can we have the meals to go? I dare say, this fight won’t be over until sometime next year,” answered Lance directly to the manager.
“O…okay, I bring some boxes straight away,” the manager said as he left. It seemed to Lance that the manager put a strange emphasis on the word ‘straight’ but decided to leave it. It wasn’t that important to him after all.
The manager brought boxes to them, and Lance and Quince got to work with putting the food into boxes. “Uhh, about the check…since that young man had a problem with the waitress I took his meal off the check. I’m sorry that your dining experience wasn’t…up to par…but…uhh, please come back and see us sometime,” the manager said nervously to Lance.
At that moment, Scott became free from Yukito’s grasp and sprung out of the booth. He grabbed the check from Lance and laid $40 on the table. “Quince, come with me. Lance, take Yukito back to his cage,” Scott ordered as he turned to storm out of the restaurant. Lance and Quince both scouted out of the booth, while Yukito took his time getting out. He didn’t like being ordered around, or being dumped off on someone. Lance and Quince grabbed the food and they all left – Quince practically running to catch up with Scott who was already outside and turned towards Mitch’s apartment.
