She pointed to Seth, a waiter who I knew she'd been seeing lately. She must want him to work late with her tonight.
Giving her a knowing smile I headed over to intercept Seth on his way to the kitchen.
"Hey, you want to close tonight? I've got to keep my niece and I need someone to close for me."
Seth glanced back over his shoulder toward Kim.
Apparently he was looking for her approval before answering. His gaze shifted back to me and he grinned.
"Sure. No problem." His obvious enthusiasm had me biting back a laugh. No doubt he was already planning his evening alone with Kim in a big empty restaurant.
"Hey, isn't that the lead singer of Jackdown?" Seth asked I looked over and sure enough sitting at my four top in section C was Krit, Trisha, Rock and Green.
"Yep and the bassist too."
"Switch with me please," Seth begged.
I glanced back at the table and Trisha waved. I couldn't do that to her.
"I would Seth but Trisha and Rock are my friends. I can't." Seth's eyes widened, "You know Krit then?"
"Yep."
"Well then can you at least introduce me. I've been wanting to audition for Jackdown for forever but they're never looking for anyone new."
He was helping me out tonight so I really owed it to him.
Even though he would no doubt be getting lucky back in the stock room tonight with Kim.
"Sure, stop by after I've got their orders and I'll introduce you."
Carrying a tray full of waters, I headed back to my newest table.
"Hey girl, hate you left early last night. You missed the last song. Krit wrote it and it was amazing," Trisha said smiling up at me.
"I'm sorry. It was just once I got outside in the clean air I couldn't bring myself to go back inside into that crowd." Not to mention I didn't want to see Marcus dancing with Jess.
"You broke my heart. I was looking forward to the end of my set so I could come find you. The boots and mini skirt were hot Low, you were killing me."
"She had on a mini skirt and boots? How, exactly, did I miss this?" Green asked looking from me to Krit.
I laughed and pulled out my order pad.
"What can I get y'all to drink?" I asked changing the subject.
"Bud on tap," Rock replied
"Diet Coke."
"Miller Light long neck."
"Sweet Tea."
I wasn't twenty-one so I couldn't serve alcohol. This would be the perfect reason to get Seth to the table.
"I'll have Seth bring y'all your beers since I'm not old enough to serve you. But be prepared he's a huge Jackdown fan and really wants to meet y'all."
Krit leaned forward and bit his bottom lip while staring me down. He really did think his sex appeal worked on everyone.
