Burn Baby, Burn

Braden's POV

  "Denis! New Kid! Its happy hour and we need help!"  

A pale male with messy dirty blonde hair, yelled from across the room. "Who's that?" I ask. "Thats Elijah, or better known as Sketch" Denis says walking into the kitchen, I follow behind him. "....Sounds familiar." I say. "Have you 2 met?" Denis asks. "I think so..." I say silent and think "Denis who else works here?" I ask. "Sub's the manager as you know, Alex creates all the recipes, Elijah tastes and perfects them to be the Best they can be, His brother, Ethan, is the Interior Designer and Baker." Denis explains. "Sub, Alex, Elijah and Ethan...Denis!" I tug on Denis's shirt. "Yea..Thats their names...What is it?" He asks. "They're our best friends! Remember? In out original world!" I say excitedly. Denis looks at me for a second until it finally hits him, "Your right!" He smiles "I dont think they know us. Well, You at least." Denis says. "Right...Denis, Why do they never remember me?" I ask. "Well you just came to our school remember? Me and They guys have been Best Friends for years." He says. "I forgot about that..." I look down. "But They love you the same...You changed us. Completely." He smiles lightly. I look back up at him, smiling widely. "Come on, We're going to get home." I grab his hand and walk over to Elijah. "Hey New Guy! Whats your name?" He asks. "Im Braden, nice to meet you Elijah." I say politely. Elijah looks at Denis, "Looks like you told him about us already." He smiles. "Uh, Elijah what color do you think matches the Walls and the frosting of this cake? I want it t- Oh!" Ethan stops when he sees me. "Ethan! Good your here. This is the new Kid, Braden." Elijah introduces me. "Hey, Braden!" Ethan smiles widely. "Hello" I reply, smiling just as wide as The Best Bros. "Also I like the Cream Color for the Walls. It goes with your new Coconut Cream Pie" Elijah adds. "Thanks Elijah" Ethan says, then he turns to me "Good luck on your first day Braden." He says, then walks away talking to himself. "What did you need us for Sketch?" Denis asks. "Oh right! Happy Hour. During this time we get a lot more orders so we need more help with cooking and plating." He explains to me. "Mhm, I think I can handle it." I say. "I know you can! Denis you're needed in the Back with Alex. He's been talking about a new Recipe and wants to show it to you. Braden you can stay up here with Me and help out with plating." Elijah says. Denis looks at me, you sure your going to be fine?, He asks with his eyes. I nod slightly, "Ill stay back, you go on ahead Denis." I shoo him off. "Ok, Ok! Im going, Im going!" Denis chuckles and walks to the back. "So What do you want me to do?" I ask. "You, can start with washing all those dishes." Elijah points to a sink overloading with dishes. "O-Oh..." I stutter and slowly walk over to the sink. I hear a chuckles behind me, "Im just kidding Braden.." He laughs. "Oh..." I chuckle. "I wouldnt do that to you, we wash the dishes together" Elijah starts. "Ok, First we neatly place the Main dish, then the sides, and last the sauce. Once you place the sauce use a clean dry rag to clean up and splatters on the plate." He shows me. "I got it." I nod and grab a plate myself and begin to follow as told. As we went along, we had to pick up or pace. More and more orders where coming in. "Are we done yet?" I ask. "Haha...No" Elijah says. Oh...

Denis's POV

"Ah! Denis you here. Good, Good." Alex says his British accent showing more then usual. "What do you need me to do Alex?" I ask, standing next to him. Alex rushes around the kitchen grabbing different ingredients. "Alex?" I say again. He looks up at me, "Im sorry! A lots going on!" He says, still trying to gather things. I put a hand on his shoulder, "Alex, calm down. Im here to help remember?" I say. His face turns light pink and he smiles, "Thanks Denis." He calms down a bit. "Let me ask again, What do you need me to do?" I repeat. "I wanted to show you the new recipe for the Restaurant me and Elijah have been working on." Alex tells me. "What the name of it?" I ask. "Spaghetti alla Carbonara" Alex says. "And..What is that?" I ask. "Its just a pasta dish made from Egg, Hard cheese, Guanciale, and Pepper" Alex explains. "Ah, I see. Sounds good to me." I say. "It is good! Elijah put the final perfections on the dish yesterday. You know what he says-" 

"It has to be the Best it can be!"

Me and Alex say it together and laugh. "Hey! Are you mocking me back there!" Elijah yells back. "No!" I yell back. I see Elijah's eyes glaring at me from all across the kitchen. "Anyhow here's the recipe. Ill help you make it." Alex smiles. We get out all our ingredients and slowly prepare the dish. "Here you can chop the peppers and I can do the pasta." Alex tells me.  

 "Well there are tons of knives..." Braden says. "We'll be careful around those then..." I say.

"I er- How about I do the pasta and you do the knife work?" I say. "But using knives is your specialty.." Alex tilts his head. "Yeah, Im just not feeling up to it.." I lie. "Ok then, Whatever works for you" Alex says starting to cut the peppers. I grab the pan and begin to toss the pasta up in the air, Ive been practicing recently. A huge flame bursts from the pan, "AHHH!" I scream, and drop the pan.  When I said I was practicing, I never got that big!The fire starts to catch onto different items in the kitchen.The fire alarm screams at me, as if I was the dumbest person in the kitchen. "Denis! Alex! You Ok- Oh Lord..." Elijah and Braden run in.  "Whats going on in here!" Sub walks in with his hands covering his ears. "I wanted to see what you thought about-" Ethan looks up slowly "-The new walls...WHAT HAPPENED!?" He yells. "I, Uh...Pasta Cook Flame Huge Drop AHHH!" I ramble. "We need to get out now." Sub says then turns to the door. "...Who closed the door?" He asks. "...It was none of us." Braden says. Sub tries to open it, "Even better, Who locked it!?" He yells. "Let me see.." Alex goes over to the door and tugs on it, but nothing happens. The flames and smoke get bigger, they start to surround us. The 6 of us all stand as close as we can to the door, away from the fire. I hold Braden tightly and look out the small window on the door. I see a black shadow run away with something in their hand. I begin to violently cough. The smoke becomes thicker and closes up my throat, Braden hinds his head in my chest. Sub is panicking, while Alex is quickly talking to himself. Ethan was trying to calm Elijah down, "Im never going to see Cayla again, and She's never going to see me again. I told you I missed her..." Elijah wines. "Its going to be fine Elijah. Plus, I had a girlfriend too! We wont die.." Ethan says. As soon as he does a flame bursts right in front of his face, He jumps back. "Ok..Maybe he we will die." He changes. We all begin to cough harder and harder, The smoke completely fills the room. I cant see anything...I cant see Braden's blue eyes, I cant see Alex's Glasses, I cant see Ethan and Elijah's smiles, and I cant see Sub's shy face...

Nothing but smoke...

"2 of 3...Dont mess up...again"
