Cutie?

(Asaka Point of View)

When I see my cutie, Levar, I smile slightly. Wait, why did I call him my cutie? Even though I really like how it sounds and what he doesn't know can't hurt him. He seems busy as he goes straight into the back, most likely to clock in. I stay where I am as I wait. A female bartender goes into the back as well. For some reason this bothers me. I guess it is because I have these weird feelings. Maybe I should stop when I'm ahead but I can't. He is so cute. How can I stop? I want him and I do always get what I want. When he comes out his face is already slightly red. He is so cute.

"Hello ma'am. I heard that you have been waiting for me." 

So that woman did speak with him. "I have been, darling. I want to talk to you while you are on your shift."

"Is there any reason why?"

"You're cute." There is more but he doesn't need to know that right now. I see his face becoming more red.

"Would you like the same as yesterday?"

"Yes, I would. Thank you sweetheart."

I watch him leave to make my drink. I'm so glad that he remembered my drink order. When he comes back, I speak without thinking.

"So tell me, is a cutie like you taken? I wouldn't be surprised if you were."

"I am actually single." 

I'm so glad that he is. That means I have a chance. Wait, no I have to calm down. I can see him starting to panic. Does he not like girls? After a few seconds I asks, "Are you gay?"

I see him pausing for a second before answering for me. "I am straight. Why do you ask?"

"You seem to have started to panic as if you thought I was going to confess or something and you are gay so you didn't know how to tell me."

"Sorry about that. I should go serve others before I get too backed up."

"Of course. Just don't forget about me." 

"I won't." He walks away. 

At least he is being responsible with his job. I just wish he would spend more time with me. Maybe I should give him a job under me. That should work. Then we can spend more time together and he would never have to worry about money. I would make sure he gets paid plenty without having to do a lot of work. That would work out for both of us. I mean, I still have work I have to do but how can I work when I have a cutie right here that I can spend time with. Plus, I'm sure Frey can work it out. They are responsible. Plus, they have taken over my place several times so I know they have it. 

When Levar gets back to me, it's been almost two hours. Was he avoiding me? Would he do that to me? That would be absurd. At least to me it is. 

"Would you like a second drink ma'am?"

"Yes, I would, darling but before you get that, have you been avoiding me?"

"No ma'am. I haven't been. Let me get your drink for you." 

I shake my head slightly as he leaves, not believing him. I want to believe him but something in me can't. At least he did ask to get a second drink. I watch him as he gets my drink. When he comes back with my drink, I take the drink and take a drink out of it. He made it just like before.

"Thank you darling."

"Of course, ma'am."

"So when do you get off work?" I want to know his schedule better and him better.

"I will probably get off around 5 am. Why?"

Wow, that is a long time to still be on your feet. I want to help him out. I really should offer him a job. "It's almost midnight. That's 5 hours on your feet and you have already been here for two hours."

"Yes. I have worked longer hours. Out of my three normal shifts, my longest is 15 hours long and on busy days without long breaks. Only three or four 10 minute breaks if I'm lucky."

"You must have really good leg strength then if you are on your feet for so long. Do you get sore?" I wonder how much his legs can take if he is used to standing for so long.

"A little bit, but it's not bad."

"Maybe I could help you with that." After all I am good with my hands, I can help him relax.

I can see the shock on his face from my comment. "What?" He is speaking so quietly, almost a mumble. It's kind of cute but once again, everything he does is cute.

"I can help you out with anything that is sore, anytime." In any place for you cutie.

"Like, in what way?"

"Massages by me." I need to start sweet before going straight for it. Plus, with a massage I will still be touching him.

His face is so red right now. "I can't tell if you are joking or not."

"Then let me help you, I'm not." After all, he should know that I am telling the truth. Even if I do want to do more.

I take another drink from my drink when I realize it has been a while since he has called me ma'am. 

"Do you need something?" Levar mumbles, he seems so embarrassed still.

"You forgot something."

I see him look down at my drink, confused. His confused face is so cute but I want to hear him say ma'am again. "I made your drink the same as before. It has ice in it, it was made with Rye and you had a sip before, so what did I forget?"

"You didn't call me ma'am." 

"No, I didn't. Is there an issue with that?"

"Yes, there is, now call me ma'am."

"Okay ma'am. Is that better?"

"Yes, good boy."

I see his face becoming red again. He is so cute and so obedient. I want him so much. No, I need him. I can see him panicking slightly, I hope I didn't mess this up for us.

"Do you need anything else?"

"No, just you to keep being pretty."

I can almost feel the heat on his face from how much he is blushing. "Okay. I should go check on the other customers."
