Makai
~~
Our second full day of living together was the day of the party that Ocean had been invited to. I had basically invited myself to the party with him because he seemed too nervous to go alone and, well, I was jealous of my boyfriend going to a party alone. I didn't want anyone to try something with him. I may be overreacting just a little bit, but I didn't care. I wanted to be there with him.
"Makai? What should I even wear to this damn party?" Ocean was calling out to me as we got out of the shower and walked back into the bedroom. The shower had been a joint one, but it had been innocent because we had to get ready for the party. Ocean didn't want to arrive too early, but he didn't want to be too late. He was so cute when he was worrying about things like this.
"Well, just try to look cool yet casual.." I called out to him as I followed him into our joint closet. I nearly laughed at the thought of where we were, and he noticed.
"What's so funny?" He asked me as he pulled the towel from around his waist.
"Nice view." I grinned at him.
"I know, but that's not what I asked you." He tossed the towel into the hamper and started to search through the clothes.
"Well, I was laughing because we're in the closet together and, well, that's what we are when it comes to everyone aside from our family." I saw him blush so red that his ears were like cherries and the staining went all the way down his chest and back. It was convenient that he was turned to the side, and I could just barely see both sides of him.
"You're so..so..so..-"
"Sexy?" I pulled my towel off and threw it to land in the hamper with his while I moved closer to give him a sexy little private dance.
"Annoying." He laughed. "I would rather go with annoying."
"Really? I think you quite enjoy this." I said as I slid my hand behind his head and kissed him quickly.
"Enough, we don't really have time for this." He pulled his lips away when I broke the kiss, but he was making no effort to get away from me.
"Yeah, yeah, I know." I smirked at him. "I just wanted to have a little fun. And as far as clothes go, here, wear this one." I pulled a shirt from my side of the closet and handed it to him. "It will go great with your eyes and hair." The shirt was a button up that was navy blue, and it had one wide red stripe just to the right of the middle. The stitching on the pocket was the same red as the stripe. It was a casual button up shirt that would be just fine for the party.
"And what are you going to wear?" He asked me as he held the shirt against his chest.
"I will wear this one." I said as I pulled down a black button up that had two thin dark green stripes on either side of the front. There was no pocket on my shirt, so while they had similarities, they were different enough that people wouldn't think that I had coordinated them for us.
"OK. So, just this and a pair of jeans?" He asked as he started out of the closet.
"Yeah, here, these ones that I bought you when we were out will be good." They were designer jeans, black, and cut to suit his body well.
"Thanks." He smiled at me and took the clothes that I gave him out to the bedroom. He was so fucking adorable. How did he not know how fucking adorable he was just then?
I took my clothes then and went to join him in the room. I wasn't going to miss out on seeing his cute body even for a second. I wanted to watch him get dressed.
After we were dressed and our hair was styled, there was nothing else for us to do before the party. So, we were getting ready to leave and head to dinner before going to Giovani's party. We went out to that same Italian restaurant that we went to that night after the tournament, the one where I stupidly let that waiter flirt with me.
I had chosen this restaurant because of the abundance of good food that you got from them. I didn't think that we would end up with the same waiter, though. So, imagine my surprise when Jonah came over to the table.
He obviously recognized me though, because he was smiling happily as soon as he saw me.
"Well, hello there." His whole face was lit up like some Christmas display. "I didn't think that I would ever see you again. You never called me."
"I never said I was going to call you. I never asked for your number." I informed him, making sure that I was going to keep my distance from him this time.
"But I know that you wanted to go out with me. Why else would you have flirted with me so much?" He winked at me.
"I am sorry about that, I was basically using you to make someone else jealous. I wanted them to admit their feelings to me."
"Well, if you want to make that person jealous, it helps to have that person here with you." He giggled and came up next to me. Just as he slid his arm around me and intensified his flirting, Ocean stood up.
"The person was there, asshole. And they are here again. Now get your hands off." He kept his voice low but there was no one else around. The part of the restaurant that we were in was basically empty, so it was just the three of us.
"Oh, is that so?" Jonah eyed Ocean with a curious gaze. "I thought you had a girlfriend, Ocean. Do your parents know about this?" He was making threats that I wasn't going to allow.
"They do, and they accept us both the way that we are. If you're thinking that you can make threats to get me to be with you instead, then you're sorely mistaken." I glared at him. "And I will have you know, that my parents could buy this restaurant in the blink of an eye, so if you don't want to find yourself without a job or worse, I suggest you do your job and stop trying to sexually harass your customers."
"Fine." He rolled his eyes. "What can I get you?" He flipped open his leather bound order pad.
"A new waiter." Ocean snapped at him as he sat back down. "I don't want to deal with you right now."
"That sounds like a good idea to me." I nodded at Ocean's words.
"Whatever." Jonah left as soon as we told him that he wasn't wanted anymore.
A minute or two later, the manager came by before another waiter did. He asked what the issue was so we told him, or should I say that Ocean did, and it made my heart skip a beat.
"Young Mr. Shores, what seems to be the problem? I know that you haven't had an issue with Jonah in the past, so what happened this evening?"
"You want to know? He put his arm around my boyfriend and made a sexual pass at him. Then, when I told him to take his hands off he threatened to tell my parents about my relationship, which they already know about, by the way. I did not appreciate his rudeness as well as his threats."
"My, my, that was not nice of him. I promise you that you will not have to deal with that any longer. I can just get you a different waiter every time or I can take further action. Your parents are very dear friends of mine, I don't want to see this happening to you again."
"I don't think he needs to be fired unless he causes more issues in the future." Ocean said in response to the manager's words, "As long as I do not have to deal with him, I think I will be fine."
"That is more than understandable. I will send over someone new to take care of you, and your meal is on the house tonight."
"Thank you, Roberto, that is nice of you."
We were finally able to order our meal and enjoy a nice dinner after that conversation. Our new waiter, Humberto, was a lot nicer and more professional. He was apparently Roberto's nephew and was part of the family that owned the restaurant. The food we ordered came out quickly, and was accompanied by free side dishes and dessert. They were taking care of us because of the family connections. That was nice. However, I didn't like the idea of the meal being free, I liked to pay my way, so I left an obscenely large tip for Humberto to let them know that it wasn't the restaurant that we had a problem with, just Jonah.
Now that we had eaten our fill and were stuffed with lots of yummy food, it was time to go to the party. I was getting nervous for some reason, and I could tell that Ocean was too. He wasn't used to this situation and I just had a feeling that something bad was going to happen. I just didn't know why I suspected something at all, I just did.
