Belgium X Reader: Their First Waffle

Waffles were a driving force in their relationship.

The first time they saw each other, (Y/N) was working at a small café called The Tiny Waffle. It never gained much attraction, as it was in between the old bookstore and the antique shop. It had been passed down through her family for a while, and now she owned it. The people who came regularly to the café knew (Y/N) as a sweet person. She always smiled and was happy to help when any customer needed it. She floated around the café, sometimes in her office handling paperwork, and other times she would cook and help serve the food.

One day, a woman came in with short, wavy, butterscotch blonde hair that was held back with a green ribbon headband that complemented her light green eyes. She walked in and sat down at the table. It wasn't too busy today, so (Y/N) decided to take her order. She went up to her table with a notepad.

"Hello, my name is (Y/N). May I take your order?" The woman looked up at the waitress with a smile.

"Um, yes. I heard that your Belgian waffles are to die for. I wanted to try them for myself." She hadn't been to this café before but a friend had recommended the waffles to her, saying that they just might compete with her own. She calmly stated her order but inside, she was really nervous. Her waitress was beautiful. The way her dress looked on her and her eyes showed the same amount of joy and happiness as her smile.

"Sure, would you like Blueberry syrup, Belgian chocolate fudge sauce or fruit on top of your waffles?" After responding with the chocolate fudge sauce, she headed to the kitchen. She was the one that usually made the Belgian waffles, so hearing that someone enjoyed her signature food made her happy. Plus, there was a beautiful woman in her café who wanted to see what her waffles were really about. She had to make sure she made them perfectly.

She came back out and set the waffles on the woman's table. "Here you go, Miss. I do hope you enjoy them. " The woman looked down at her plate after saying thank you. She saw that there were two waffles on the plate. On top, was the sauce, that was poured in the shape of a heart. She took a bite out of the waffles and closed her eyes in bliss. Her friend was right. These waffles were delicious. She sat there enjoying her waffles, (Y/N) came back over to pick up the plate.

"I really enjoyed them. These were the best waffles I have ever tested. And I am from Belgium." She said with a smile. (Y/N) felt such joy when she found out that the woman liked them.

"Well, I'm glad you enjoyed because it is on the house."

"No, I can't just take them for free!"

" Yes, you can."

"Please, I need to repay you somehow! These waffles were sent down from heaven. I can't just walk away without paying for it." She began pulling out her wallet. (Y/N) had no idea where she gained the confidence to put her hand on her arm and say, "How about your number? I'd love to call you sometime and maybe take you out?" The woman paused and looked up at her.

"U-Unless you don't want to of course. Which is totally fine! You probably have a boyfriend or girlfriend and I-" She was stopped by the woman's hand reaching for her breast pocket. She pulled out a pen and grabbed (Y/N)'s arm. She wrote something down on her arm, gave (Y/N) a quick kiss on the cheek and left.

(Y/N) put one hand on her cheek where the woman's lips previously were and looked down at her arm. "Bella: XXX-XXX-XXXX". (Y/N) blushed and looked up from her arm biting her lip. She had no idea what enabled her to get so confident, but she was happy that it happened. She looked back towards the counter to see her crew all smiling at her, some with their thumbs up and others silently punching the air in excitement.

That was how they first met.

Their first actual date was in the morning time. (Y/N) had decided to go over to Emma's house to make some waffles together. They both went to the kitchen and put on their aprons. (Y/N) took one bowl and added flour, sugar and baking powder. Bella was working on a separate bowl that co took the other. (Y/N) about half In a bowl, combine flour, sugar and baking powder. In another bowl, lightly beat egg yolks. They then added milk, butter, and vanilla. Bella poured in the dry ingredients and (Y/N) stirred. They then folded it into the batter and poured it into the preheated waffle iron.
