Jynna smiled, shrugging as she joked back, "What can I say, food has been an important part in my life forever." She took a small step away from him and grabbed his hand, ready to lead him to the burger place.
Jynna smiled, shrugging as she joked back, "What can I say, food has been an important part in my life forever." She took a small step away from him and grabbed his hand, ready to lead him to the burger place.
He laced their fingers together and let her lead the way. "True true. Say, what's your favorite dish? If you want to meet my sister, might as well conveniently use her culinary prowess when you come over for such a meeting."
"Hm……Probably lasagna, good ol' homemade lasagna," She replied, tugging him down a small sidewalk between two of the buildings and slipping through the parking lot of a store behind the buildings.
"Perfect," he chirped. He let her tug him around, trusting her to not lead him to some dump. "You wanna come over after school today?" he asked with a half smile directed down towards her.
Jynna thought for a moment and nodded, "Sure, I don't think I'm on the schedule for today at the diner." Soon, they were walking down one of the busier streets in town, with shops lining the street and sidewalks along with a few bars and restaurants scattered around, "What's your favorite food by the way?" She asked.
He tilted his head as he thought about it. "Hmmm. If my sister's cooking, then it would be her homemade chicken noodle soup. If not, then any kind of pizza that doesn't involve pineapple." His eyes darted about, looking around the town in curiosity.
"You don't like pineapple on pizza?" She made a mental note to remember he liked pizza before pointing towards a building on the other side of the street with a smile like a kid showing someone their favorite place. It was clearly the burger place, with the sign that said 'Bullhorn Burgers' on the top, "There it is, the best place to get a burger that I've found so far."
He scrunched up his face at her question. "Hell no. That's just unnatural." When she pointed out the burger place with a proud smile brightening her face, he couldn't help but stare down at her with a soft smile. "Well, I'll take your word for it," he murmured.
She shook her head, "Don't take my word for it, see for yourself, we are going there anyway." She looked both ways to make sure there were no cars coming before pulling him across the street and to the burger place, "They have every combination or idea for a burger you can imagine, and if they don't have it, they have a place on the menu where you can create your own custom burger."
"Sweeeeet," he said, following her while doing his own check to make sure they wouldn't end up like pancakes. "I'm already getting hungry just from the endless possibilities," he joked.
Jynna laughed lightly and pulled open the door, motioning him inside and smiling at the delicious smell coming from inside.
He headed in, ruffling her hair some as he passed her, then took a deep breath in. "Oh yeah, that smells divine," he said, licking his lips.
She nodded and followed him in, waving to one of the waitresses with a smile before leading him over to an empty table and sitting down.
He sat opposite her, looking around some more. "I just might come here on my own, if the smell is any indication of the food quality."
"The food is always amazing," Jynna said, smiling at the same waitress as she came over to their table with two menus.
"Welcome to the Bullhorn, I'm Anka," The waitress said, setting a menu in front of each of them and taking out a notepad, "It's nice to see you in here again Jynna, but now you gotta tell me, who's the guy?" She smiled at Jynna and glanced at Rhydar, "Also, if either of you wants a drink I can go get those right now."
Rhydar chuckled when the waitress asked who he was. "I'll let milady explain my presence, " he said with a wink tossed Jynna's way. "And I'll have a Pepsi, if that's at all possible."
"Cherry Coke," Jynna said, nodding to him, "This is Rhydar, we're dating and he kinda saved me from Will."
Anka nodded, "So a Pepsi and Cherry Coke?" She winked at Jynna and mouthed 'he's hot', "I'll let you two have some time alone then, and I'll be back in a little bit with your drinks and to take your orders." She then turned on her heel and went off to get their drinks.
Rhydar noted the exchange and chuckled to himself. "I take it you're a regular here?" he asked Jynna once the waitress was gone.
She shrugged, "A somewhat regular, me and Anka just know each other." Her face flushed slightly and she turned to look at the menu, truing to decide what to get, "Sorry about her Anka-ness, that's how she always acts around attractive guys."
He chuckled again and leaned on his elbows. "Well, glad I'm classified as an attractive guy. I'm mostly classified as having too many rings," he said with a half smile.
"I like your rings, they suit you," She replied, smiling and closing the menu once she had decided what she wanted, "Your lip ring is my favorite I think."
He smirked and unconsciously licked said ring. "Is it now?" He picked up his menu and scanned it until he found one he liked.
She leaned back on her chair and nodded, smiling when she saw Anka come out of the kitchen with their drinks, "Which one are you going to get?"
"Hmm, probably go easy with a normal cheeseburger. Gotta go with the basics to see if I actually like it here." He winked. "But my gut says you're right about this place."
"Their cheeseburgers are really good in my opinion so I think you'll like them." Jynna looked up at Anka when she got to their table and smiled.
"Here are your drinks, Pepsi for you," She said, setting their drinks down in front of them, "And Cherry Coke for you. Are you two ready to order?" Anka pulled out her notepad again and smiled, looking between the two of them.
Rhydar nodded and told her his order. Once he was done, he flicked his brows up in Jynna's direction. "How 'bout you, babe?"
She smiled and glanced at the menu again before ordering, "I think I'm going to try the taco burger, it doesn't sound half bad."
Anka nodded and wrote don both of their orders, smiling and glancing between the two of them, "It that it?"
Rhydar nodded and smiled up at Anka. "Yup, that's all for me."
Jynna nodded as well, "That'll be it."
"Alright then, I'll be back with your food when it's done." She replied, tucking the notepad and pen away and giving them one last smile before turning to take other's orders and get their food.
Rhydar stretched his arms up and tilted his head back. "Ahhhhhhh, I really don't want to go back after this," he said, folding his arms on top of his forehead.
