Senior Year Checklist

Chapter 16

Rose POV

Me and Natalie go to the diner after school.

"I think I'm going to get a bacon cheeseburger" I tell Natalie

"I thought we were going to discuss the checklist?" She says to me

"We will but we will discuss it over a bacon Cheeseburger" I tell her

"What do you guys want?" Holden asks impatient and yes he works here part time

"Is that anyway to speak to paying customers?" I tsk

"Do you want your usual nat?" He asks her sweetly

"Yes please" she smiles

"You?" He glares at me

"Bacon cheeseburger with a chocolate malt" I smile sarcastically at him

"Coming up" he rolls his eyes at me

"And make it snappy" I say as he walks away

I hear him muttering something about spitting in my food as he walks away.

"Okay now let's discuss our list" she says

"It's not like it's homework Natalie" I laugh

"I know" she sighs

"Okay well I already completed one thing off my list a new wardrobe which I don't think anyone but Sara and Ben notice" I sigh disappointed

"Okay the people your trying to impressive where the same leatherman jacket and cheerleading outfit everyday" she tells me trying to make me feel better

"Just so you girls know that leatherman jacket is very comfortable" Holden says as he puts our drinks down

"Yeah but maybe try washing it once a year" I laugh

"I putting tomatoes on your burger" he snickers as he walks away

"You better not!" I tell him I hate tomatoes with a passion

"Okay now it's your turn to pick something to do off your list" I say as I take a sip of my drink

"Okay well I was thinking either get a job or join an after school activity" she says

"Well they both sound awful" I joke

"It might be fun" she says but even she doesn't believe that

Holden come back with our food. "Here you go"

"Hey Holden do you know of any place that is hiring?" I ask him

"Why?" He asks confused

"Natalie wants a job" I tell him and point at Natalie

He sits in the booth next to her and grab a fry off my plate. "Hey!" I say annoyed

"We are actually hiring" he tells Natalie

"Really do you think I could get a interview?" She says getting excited

"Let me talk to the boss I'm pretty sure I can convince him to just give you the job" he tells her

"Really?" She smiles

"Yeah of course" he smiles back and takes one of her fries "okay got to go"

"Thank so much" Natalie tells him as he leaves to go wait on other tables

"Your brother awesome" she tells me

"Have fun working with him is all I got to say" I say as I take a bite of my burger

"That would be perfect if I got the job I mean I'm here all the time anyway" she says as she eats

"True" I mumble as I take another bite
