I needed a name for Denmark, because I don’t intent to name him Dane every time in the story lol xD So I will call him Mathias, since it’s a name I heard quite often for him in Fanfictions. My friend suggested to name him Danik (you know, Danish/Danik ^^;;;)….but I’ll go for Mathias…
I think I will also name Norway; Nicolai, for the same reason. I think the other name I heard for him in fanfiction is Erik (or something similar I believe), but I prefer the name Nicolai, I always liked this name for some reason, I think it’s just so pretty ^^.
Chapter 3
Deep in thought, Yao was peacefully cleaning and preparing a table. He was still worried with the fact that Alfred knew about his secret and as much as he would like to forget about it, he just couldn’t. Somehow, he had a really bad feeling that the loud American wouldn’t keep this a secret and that he wasted a perfectly good leftover of cake for nothing.
Plus, he felt like there was also a sudden eerie atmosphere here…
“Hey, do you think we can close early, today?” The Danish waiter rapidly asked Yao, starting to help him prepare the table. His question quickly snapped the other out of his thoughts.
“Aiyaa! I really don’t think the manager will accept that aru!”Yao answered giving him a confused glare.
The Chinese really didn’t understand his co-worker. Mathias always wanted to finish his job sooner than he was supposed to. No wonder why their manager wasn’t content with the Dane’s behaviour.
“Damn! I wanted to go home sooner today!”The blond complained.
Yao could only sigh. Why most of the westerners he met have to always have such odd comportment. He decided to ignore Mathias’ plan to “escape” sooner from work and continued preparing the table, because the other waiter was far from preparing it the correct way they were supposed to.
However, Yao rapidly froze when he heard some weird, yet, familiar sound…
“kolkolkolkol~”
Thinking that it was really odd, he looked around him, but didn’t saw anyone except for his co-worker.
Was he hearing stuff? Was his mind playing with him?
He could swear that it was the sound a familiar Russian that always stalked him everywhere made…
Could it be that…? No, it was impossible!
After all, it’s only been less than thirty minutes that Alfred knew about his job here. So the possibilities of other people, such as a certain Russian, knowing about his secret work were still small. Unless, the American beat a new record in not keeping a secret, which was sadly something Yao could see happen.
However, even if it was possible, Alfred and Ivan hated each other and only talked to insult each other, so there was absolutely no chance that the Russian knew.
“Kolkolkolkolkol~”
But, he was still hearing this weird and creepy sound!
“Aiyaa, are you hearing something strange aru?” The Chinese finally asked to the other.
“What? No. I am hearing nothing strange.” Mathias answered, a little puzzled with the random question.
Yao was so relieved! So it means that it was only his head hearing things...which wasn’t normal actually… but, for now, it was better than being embarrassed again and, especially, better than meeting the guy who doesn’t stop stalking him.
“Oh, now, I am hearing something strange! I think it’s coming from that guy over there!”The blond soon added, noticing a person next to the window.
“W-what?” Yao slowly turned his head to where Mathias was looking, full of worries and hoping that it wasn’t the person he thought it was.
Unfortunately, it was exactly this person!
“Aiyaa!!!” He expressed, with a hint of anxious and shock.
Oh, no!! It was Ivan!! That was so unfair!! Why the universe just loved to torture him with embarrassment?
Yao looked at the Russian for a long moment; he was seeing him at the other side of the room, however, it seemed like his brain didn’t want to believe in such tragedy.
On the other hand, Ivan was absolutely pleased to finally have Yao’s attention all to himself. In fact, he was even gladder to see that his little Yao was staring at him with such interest… actually; Yao’s expression was more one of complete bewilderment, but Ivan was way too happy to pay attention to this small detail.
The Russian waved at his crush and gave him a small wink, which didn’t take long to flustered Yao.
“I think he is waiting for something.”The Dane remarked, completely oblivious to what was truly happening between Yao and Ivan. Anyway, his comment, at least, woke the Chinese out of his shocked state.
“C-can you help him aru? I-I’ll go check if the dishes are clean!!” Yao asked suspiciously to his co-worker.
He only wanted an excuse to not meet Ivan face to face. This plan probably wouldn’t work for a long time, but it would give him some moment to think about how to escape from his Russian stalker.
“…Okay…”The other responded with hesitation. He was surprised of seeing the Asian suddenly look so anxious. Were they in some trouble that he was supposed to know?
Mathias was really not convinced or reassured, especially after seeing how quickly Yao ran to the kitchen.
However, he thought that as long as he doesn’t have to face the anger of his manager, he would be fine. After all, what he did not know couldn’t hurt him, right? So he walked slowly toward the costumer.
Meanwhile, Yao, who was still hiding in the kitchen, was spying the scene. He hoped that the blond waiter won’t do something stupid…
From there, Yao could see everything. Apparently, Ivan’s smile went rapidly away when he saw the Dane coming to serve him. The Chinese was expecting the Russian to be anger and insult or threat the waiter, but nothing of the sort happened.
In fact, now Ivan and Mathias seemed like they were having a conversation, and it didn’t seem like it was about ordering food.
Mathias made a gesture sign to wait a minute to Ivan and hurriedly went away from the table. All this was only stressing and making Yao even more worried…
Aiayaa, what is this idiot doing aru? Yao mentally panicked, perplexed with what Mathias was doing. To him all this seemed like a very bad sign.
“Hey, the guy wants you to serve him.” The blond Dane said as soon as he arrived to the kitchen and saw Yao.
“What?!!” Yao asked in disbelief. Actually, he did not know why he was so surprised; he was sure a similar situation would happen sooner or later. “No!! I am not going!”
“Eh? Why?” Mathias replied shocked to see the Asian acting like this. It was the first time he saw Yao protesting to accomplish his job. Since the day he started working at the café, Yao had always been a good worker.
“I-I think it’s unfair for you aru! I mean, it’s your job too, you need to work as much as me.” The Chinese answered, hoping it would be a good excuse for his attitude.
“Oh it’s kind of you, but it is really okay! I don’t like to have a lot of work, anyway.”
Lazy Bastard! Yao cursed the other, giving him a glare.
“I don’t care! I am not going to serve him aru!” The Chinese replied.
“…B-But, I don’t think the manager will be happy to hear that you don’t want to serve our customers.”The Dane remarked completely confused with the other’s attitude.
“Aiyaa! He’s not a customer! He’s a stalker aru! He doesn’t stop following me everywhere, I am not serving him.” Yao still protested.
“Well you don’t have the choice. He demanded you and he said that if it wasn’t you, he will have to talk to the manager…”Mathias pointed, pushing Yao out of the kitchen.
“What?! NO!!” Yao complained. Unfortunately, there wasn’t much he could do.
********
Don’t worry Yao and Ivan will officially and finally meet in the next chapter ;P (I know, it was about time…). On a side note, I didn’t really had the chance to specify in this chapter, but Yao is the only (lucky) one that wears a French maid dress. So the others are wearing a normal waiter outfit for man.
