Drinking By The Mausoleum Door

Chapter 38

Mysty's P.O.V
​
​Gerard took my hand and led me out of the theatre. (We're now fully dressed. Obviously.) He picked up a dvd of the play on the way out. We set off, hand in hand, to the restaurant down the street.
Holly's Restaurant had a red, white and gold theme. The outside was red with gold trim. The inside had red table cloths with gold trim and all tables had a white and red vase with gold trim and a red rose in it, sat in the centre.
​"Table for Way, please." Gerard said to the smartly dressed blond man by the door.
​"This way, please." The man replied as he picked up two menus and led us to a window table. Gerard held my chair out for me.
​"Thank you." I said as he sat down across from me.
​"Your waitress will be with you shortly." The man said as he passed us a menu each.
​"Thank you." Gerard said as he looked at the menu.
​I smiled as I spotted two waitresses whispering and looking over at us. A mixture of interest and envy as they looked from Gerard to me then back again.
​"What's the smile for?" I looked at Gerard to see him staring at me.
​"I was just remembering that woman at the last restaurant." I told him.
​"Your not planning on punching someone else are you?" He grinned.
​I giggled. "No. These women are respecting the boundaries."​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
​He laughed. "Being married to you is going to be fun."
​"Being married to you is going to be tiring." I stated. "If these last six days are anything to go by."
​I watched as the waitress with the long ginger hair in a ponytail approached our table. She smiled at Gerard as she stopped by us. "Hello." She said, smiling at me too. "Welcome to Holly's Restaurant. My name is Jenny. I will be your waitress for tonight. If you are ready, I will take your order."
​I liked this girl already.
​Gerard smiled. "I will have the beef special and a glass of soda, please." He said as he passed her his menu.
​"And for you lovely wife?" Jenny asked, looking at me.
​I smiled. "I will have the lamb special and a glass of water, please." I told her.
​Jenny smiled as she wrote down our order then disappeared to sort it.
​I looked over at Gerard. He was grinning.
​"What?" I asked, frowning.
​"Someone has a admirer." He stated with amusement.
​I sighed. "Who do I have to punch?"
​"Not me." He laughed. "Jenny was eyeing YOU up."
​My jaw dropped open. Is he taking the piss?
​Jenny returned with our drinks. She put Gerards drink down and his cutlery. Then she turned to me, winking at me as she placed my water and cutlery infront of me. She fucking winked at me? Oh fuck. I'm not used to this. I'm not used to anyone flirting with me. Shit.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
