Alexander looked up at the menu behind the cute brunet, he was having trouble deciding but he could feel her eyes on him which made him even more nervous. "Um what would you recommend?" He ask dropping his hands onto the counter top, letting it support his weight.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF00BF">She set down her table and pen and turned around looking and pointing up at the menu, "Most like the Double double cheese burger...but if your a big meat eater I'd go with the steak....if your not bake potato loaded." She told him withe a sweet, bright smile before she took her paper and pen in her hand again.</span><br/><br/><br/>While the girl looked at the sign behind her, he took the time to check out the back side to her. It was rather appealing and then he had to mentally kick himself in the ass again.<span style="font-style: italic">"God why do I gotta act such like a wolf?"</span>He asked himself then just as he was asking himself that he happened to order the steak..."medium rare..but closer to the rare side." He said then fumbled for his wallet.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF">She wrote down the order and walked over to the window attached it to the metal runner and spun it so the cook would read it. The cook was cold and rude so Taylor never spoke to him ever. Her eyes wandered back over to the male and she smiled, "I'm Taylor....would you like something to drink?" She asked as he fummbled with his wallet making her giggle slighly as her cheeks turned a nice rosey red color and she looked away.</span><br/><br/>Alex heard her giggle and wondered why he was acting so weird, maybe he had lost to much blood. He had no idea what was going on with him, but finely he managed to retrieve his wallet and laid it on the counter. "The names Alexander, but you can call me Alex, and yes please. I coke will do, thanks.." He said and decided to take a seat the occupied the counter.<br/><br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF">She nodded and hurried off picking up a glass holding up to the light making sure it was sparkly clean, she knew the dish boys that worked the last shift slacked off. Once she found one that was clean she filled it with ice and then coke. She heard the bell near the cook and saw the steak was ready and put the coke and the plate on a tray and held it up with one hand as she backed out the door and walked over to Alex. "Here you are. One steak medium rare but closer to the rare side with a coke. Can I get you anything else?" She asked setting the trey down and leaned on the counter a little like she always did.</span><br/><br/>Alex almost about drooled as he saw the steak, he almost didn't hear the girl named Taylor, but all he could muster for her was a shake of the head before he dug into his meal.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF">She watched him dig in and when he didn't stop she assumed it was cooked to his liking and laied the ticket and moved over to the regester counting the mony for the night so the person who had the morning shift didn't have to rush though it and do it, though that was usually her that was working in the morning, she hadn't yet checked the schedule.</span><br/><br/>Alex watched her in the corner of his eyes, and stopped inhaling his food for a moment, caught his breath and had to take a drink of soda before he was actually able to talk. "How much do I owe ya?" He asked while cutting another piece of his steak.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF">Her baby blue eyes looked over at him and smiled, "First meal is on the house sir. Don't worry about it." She told him in a sweet voice and closed the cash register. "What kind of work has you working so late?" She asked moving over grabbing a pitcher of coke and refilled his coke.</span><br/><br/>He took a sip from his refilled coke, to wetten his throat a little before he began to tell her about his work. "I'm a mechanic. I work in a autoshop. I would ask you the same thing, but seeing as your the one serving me, I already know that answer." He said, his confidence coming a little bit back to him.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF">She listened to him and heard the question and giggled again at his remake about her and bit her bottom lip as her cheeks turned red again, "Yeah, pays the bills. Some days more the other but I get by." She said with a nod, she was here more then she was at her home so of couse it paid the bills. "So, how was your steak? I hope you will be a repating coustomer."She said as she turned around watching the cook clean the stove meaning, her shift was almost over.</span><br/>Alex looked at her thoughtfully and wondered what he had said to make her blush like that, but then took his last bite before mentioning anything and nodded his head and patted his stomach. "Defiantly will be returning. I think I may come back every night. I'm a lazy man when it comes to cooking." He said giving her a wink then finish his coke.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FF40BF">She smiled as he finished his steak and took his plate putting it on the tray and smiled, "I'm here.....everyday....usually all day." She said and smiled, for some reason she was hoping he kept his word, she was really hoping to see him again. When he finsihed his coke she put that on the tray before speaking again, "Have a goodnight sir." She said with a polite nod and picked up the tray to go clean the dishes then close up so she could go home home and get some rest before opening back up.</span><br/><br/>He got up from his seat, searched inside his wallet for a good minute then laid a ten dollar bill onto the counter. "Thanks for the meal again, I'll be in tomorrow night. Good night Taylor." he said as he left the coffee shop. The wind was cold but his internal core kept him nice and warm, so the breeze actually felt good on his back.<br/><br/>The sensation made him want to run wild into the forest, with the wind blowing through his brown and white fur and the soft soiled dirt underneath his paws. He smiled to himself and instead of heading home, he went in the direction of the nearest woods he was going to shed his human skin for his other side.<br/><br/>The wolf within him hummed in approval he had wanting nothing more than to just run. Run along the tree line and with the moon as his guide. It didn't take Alex long to find the decent sized meadow and then to shed his clothing and force on the change. His bones creaked and he shrank in size and grew hairy. His face extended and a long brown and white tail sprouted out the rear end. He felt at home in his wolf body. Closer to the ground and he could sense almost everything. Even the woman; Taylor, her scent was still very strong to him and he wondered why. It had a familiar twinge to it and wondered what that could be. Instead of dwelling on the thought any longer he took off at a sprint into the woods after covering his clothing and let out a loud happy howl that echoed off the tree's and could be heard for miles around.
