**Iolani POV**

After driving around for at least 45 minutes, we finally come across a small truck stop diner. Given that it was christened the Bucksnort Cafe, I doubt either of us really expected much. Still, it was food and we were hungry. Well here goes nothing...

Hands clasped we walked in, and were pleasantly surprised by the hometown feel of the place. An elderly lady was manning the till, and she looked up and smiled at us as we walked in.

"Welcome to the Bucksnort Café," greeted the old woman. "Feel free to pull up a seat wherever you'd like. Kandi will be along to take your order in a moment."

In unison we responded with a friendly, "Thank you," as we found a seat in a back booth. Now this is cozy...

**A few minutes later**

We were just making idle chit chat and trying to figure out what to do with our day, when out of the back comes Kandi. She was blonde, dressed in a low cut blouse and daisy duke shorts. I'm not having a good feeling about this...

"Hey y'all. I'm Kandi," she greets, making direct eye contact with my e ipo without giving me so much as glance. "What can I get y'all, sugar?" she asks with flirty smile, as she hands my man a menu while placing her manicured hand directly on his shoulder. All this without so much as glancing once in my direction. I hate her already. Where's my menu, bitch?

"What do you recommend?" he asks, seemingly oblivious.

She leans over, breasts about to spill out of her shirt to look at his menu, placing her hand directly on his thigh. "I suggest the French toast..." she replies suggestively. What the hell do you think you're doing lady?!

I make a not so subtle coughing noise, and she looks in my direction with a scowl on her face. "I'd like a coffee please. And could I get a menu?" I ask briskly, frost in my voice.

She tosses one my way with a dirty look. You could try cutting the attitude...

"Would you mind giving us a few minutes?" I ask, with a level stare.

She walks off in a huff. Gee...if looks could kill, I'd be dead by now...

"Did you not see what she was doing?" I ask bluntly, as I meet his confused amber gaze.

"What? She was just being friendly," he offers by way of response. Yeah right...

"Oh come on...she was hanging all over you," I reply defensively.

"I'm sure she's like that with all the customers," he offers sincerely. Yeah...the cute male customers...

I tune back in to hear, "Besides, you've got nothing to worry about," he continues with a wicked grin. "Let's just try to have a nice breakfast. So...what did you want to do today?" he inquires sincerely.

"Well it's obvious we need to pick up a few groceries," I retort with the beginnings of a smirk. "I don't think we want to be eating that Spam..." I continue with a wink, mischievous twinkle in my eye.

"Yeah...that's a given," he replies with a chuckle.

"After that, I was thinking maybe we could chill by the lake..." I offer with a grin. "...provided you brought some trunks this time that is..." I couldn't help but give him a hint of a smile at that one. Even if he didn't, I'm not exactly gonna complain...not that I'd let him know that...

"Don't worry, mama. That was one of the first things I packed," he confirms with a grin. Drat!

Kandi chose just that moment to wander back over with our coffee. "Cream or sugar?" she asks him suggestively.

"Just black for both of us thanks," he replies, wisely keeping his eyes on me.

"So have you decided what you'd like to order sweetie?" she asks, making direct eye contact with him, reaching over to gently tuck a stray curl behind his ear.

I've about had it with this bitch... Pointedly I tell her, "Yeah, we'll both have omelettes with mushrooms, peppers, and white toast."

"Is that what you want sugar? Can I get you anything else" she whispers in his ear leaning in a bit too close once again, her breasts brushing against his shoulder. Shit...can't this ho catch a clue?!

Keeping things friendly he responds with, "Nothing else for me thanks," before glancing my way with a baffled look. I don't know how he's not seeing this...

She exits with a smile and wink, "I'll be back in a jiffy."

**A few minutes later**

Kandi walks out of the kitchen with a tray holding our food.

Of course, she serves him first with a seductive smile. "Here's your omelette, honey. Would you like anything else?" she offers, handing him a napkin with some writing on it. Yeah...I'm gonna have to get my hands on that...

"No thank you," he replies, tossing the napkin aside and digging into his meal.

"Here you go," she says curtly to me, tossing my meal on the table without making eye contact before walking away. A tip isn't the only thing this joke of a woman isn't getting today...

I take a bite of my meal, and thankfully the omelette is fluffy and melts in my mouth. At least the food is good...

After we finish our meals, he leaves for a minute to use the restroom. I decide to take the few minutes I have to myself to pick up the napkin Kandi left here earlier.

Reading it, I find it says.

If you ever get bored with your little girlfriend, give me a call me sometime sugar. (612) 555-3739

Kandi <3

Now if that bitch thought for a second I was going to let him see this, she had better think again!

I decide to add my own little note to the bottom of the napkin before slipping it into my pocket.

Find your own man, bitch. This one's mine.

Just then he comes out to meet me so we can get out of here. He grabs my hand and helps me up out of the booth. "You ready to go?" he asks sincerely. l was ready half an hour ago.

"Yeah, just give me a minute to settle the bill."

"Okay, I'll meet you in the car," he offers, but before he goes to leave I see Kandi trying to make eye contact with him out of the corner of my eye. I'll give you something to look at you skank!

With that I pull him close to me, and with a surprised look on his face I envelope his lips in a heated kiss. It doesn't take long for him to pull me in to deepen it with enthusiasm.

I take a few moments to enjoy it before pulling away to make eye contact with Kandi, a smug look on my face. There, I hope you got a good eyeful...

"I guess I'll meet you outside," he replies, with a confused smile before he turns and walks out the door.

Turning my attention to Kandi with a look of satisfaction on my face, I pay for our breakfast...but not without also including the offensive napkin with a snarky smile.

As I'm walking out the door, the elderly woman from earlier calls out in farewell, "Thanks for coming in. I hope to see you two again. You guys make a cute couple."

Not having the heart to be rude to such a kind old lady I offer a wave over my shoulder with a sincere, "Thanks. It was nice meeting you."

If it weren't for the slutty waitress, I think I'd actually consider coming back to this place...
