*now i know The Wreck serves seafood but for the sake of this story they serve hot dogs too fjdksskk*

"Y/N TABLE 24!" Kie shouted over the cashier pointing at the table that needs to be served, y/n's stomach was grumbling, her head throbbing at whatever sound that was higher than speaking range. "bitch" she whispered to her friends, eyes closed from the headache

"what" kie whispered back, her eyes full of concern

"i told you i have a headache" she spat, her hands rubbing her forehead trying to soothe the pain

"oh shit, sorry. is it really that bad?" kie smiled sympathetically.

"well, yeah i barely slept and-" she was about to continue her rambling when the bell dinged, signalling them that new customers arrived. both of the girls eyes shot up to the door to be met by their annoying ass friends with shit eating grins

"oh you've got to be kidding me" kie rolled her eyes "what are you guys doing here?" she glared and the boys and sarah.

"uhm, we want to eat, now is that a way to welcome a customer?" JJ asked, putting his hand on his heart acting as if he was offended causing the rest of the group to do the same. the thing is, the group loves to joke around and tease eachother all the time. normally, y/n would fire back a comeback or playfully hit his head but she was too tired to do so, so she just rolled her eyes and went to her table

"whats up with her" John B asked point at y/n obviously faking her smile at the customers as she was writing their orders, the customers didn't know that but her friends knew her too well.

"she was studying all night" kie spoke typing something on the cash register.

"oh" the group nodded in understanding, they knew their beloved y/n. always trying to be the best, and working hard is basically her motto in life, that's why she fits well with the group. especially JJ. they've been best friends for a while.  her personality and determinations mixed with his easiness and care free self fits so well like puzzle pieces, they balance eachother out and even though JJ isn't well with coping with his feelings or showing them, he makes sure she gets the appreciation she deserves. for example, now.

the group sat on the table, John B and sarah facing the ocean view while JJ and pope sat on the opposite side. pope didn't want to sit next to the lovesick couple, even though sitting on the opposite side wont do any better, he'd just like to think it does. but JJ chose that spot so he could check on his exhausted best friend, just in case something happened. another one of JJ's qualities, is his protectiveness over the people he cares about. but he's a little more protective over y/n, even though he wont admit it, its true.

after y/n served her designated table she went to serve her other customers that kie assigned for her. her friends. she didnt mind since she needed some positivity in her shitty mood, and she can always count on her friends for that.

"sup dipshits, what do you guys want?" she slid on the seat next to JJ, pulling out her pen and pad from her pocket while JJ absentmindedly stretched out his right arm to hug her shoulders.

"wow" John B spoke "what a way to talk to a customer" he continued the joke from a few minutes ago, snickering. while sarah clapped.

"oh piss off, im trying to be nice here" she scoffed

"oh, this is called being nice?" pope continued

"i guess so" sarah spoke

"you guys seriously don't know when to shut up, huh?" y/n rolled her eyes, smiling at her idiot of a friend group.

after taking their orders, which took longer then than the usual time of ordering, she gave the slip to kie since she was going to the kitchen. as she was waiting for their meal to come, she prepared their drinks and served a couple of other tables. her body getting tired with every step, her back was tense, feet cramping, and mood obviously sour. but she needed to push through it, she only had a 2 hours left till her shift is over.

"here guys" y/n served the drinks to her friends, sarah and pope ordered sprite while John B and JJ took a couple of beers. y/n passed john B and sarahs drinks first since they were closer, hugging John B and obviously kissing sarahs cheek (its a simple gesture the girls do all the time), causing both of them to laugh. then she served pope and JJ's drinks, giving pope a hug from the back to which he reciprocated the gesture by touching her arms that were hung loosely around his shoulders.

"don't i get a kiss" JJ teased, pouting his lips jokingly making kissing sounds, y/n rolled her eyes at her childish best friend and smacked the back of his head causing him to groan "ow" he whined "you know i was joking!" he pouted, rubbing his head trying to soothe the sudden pain

"oh, you baby" now it was y/n's turn to tease him, but nonetheless she kissed his cheek which also caught him by surprise since he didn't expected it after being swatted in the back of his head, his cheeks flamed pink as he tried to supress the stupid grin on his face.

but his smile slowly turned into a frown when he heard the sound of grumbling "have you eaten today?" JJ turned to y/n, his eye brows furrowing not wanting to believe what he was thinking, has she not eaten today at all? no, maybe she just ate breakfast early and couldn't eat lunch due to her shift, JJ's thoughts kept swirling around his head, with every thought he assumed the worst.

"i told you, i was studying all night. i barely came here on time" she whispered, not wanting to make a big deal out of it, when it clearly is.

"what do you mean you couldn't ea- okay, your shift is over get your ass down and finish my beer, actually no, don't drink that on an empty stomach get yourself a bottle of water and DRINK" he shooed her, but she wouldn't budge

"i can't! some new inspectors are coming at any moment, maybe they've already arrived! i dont know! so i cant just eat and drink whenever i want to" she hissed, looking around the restaurant to see if there are any new faces or most importantly, her boss. coz if he saw her spending one more minute at that table he'll kick the squad out for distracting her.

JJ wouldn't take no for an answer, so he signalled John B to give him his backpack and took out a bottle of water. "take it" he said extending his arm for her to take the bottle

"JJ i just told you i can't- and look kie's dad is literally scanning the place i don't want to be the one ruining this for him" she tried to reason with him, once she saw that her boss was looking at her she immediately took out her pen and pad acting as if she was writing down something for the table, JJ obviously looked at where she was looking at to see Mr Carrera, so he played along and opened the bottle and drank a bit.

once he saw that kie's dad left, he yanked y/n to sit next to him and lifted the bottle to her lips "drink" he said sternly, now y/n knew her best friend, she wasn't the only one with determination, so rolling her eyes, she gave in and opened her mouth slowly drinking from his water bottle. this wasn't weird for the pair. they've always been comfortable around eachother, more so than others. they always share their foods with eachother, especially when they were trying something different, what he liked about y/n is that she shamelessly admits that she loves food, like more than most girls would.

she could literally stuff her whole face and she wouldn't be embarrassed of it, even if it was infront of the 3 boys, or infront anyone in general.

after drinking a couple of sips, she pulled away, savouring the feeling of the cold water going down her throat. "thank you" she whispered, giving JJ one last kiss, on the cheek of course, before slipping out of the benches to go serve other customers. never failing to make her best friend blush, as always.

15 minutes later, it was time to serve their foods, so y/n walked up to them again, a warm smile tugged on her lips as she remembered what her caring best friends did. He was always this caring with her, and it always made her heart leap.

"here you go" she did her round of serving to the table, each face was funnier from the other, you could tell they were starving! stuffing their faces the second the plate hit the table. what surprised her is how JJ was suspiciously calm? he was picking out some topping off his hot dog which he normally doesn't do, picky eater. as y/n was walking away again, JJ called out her name and gestured for her to come back.

"here, eat up" he took his hot dog off his plate moved it closer to her mouth, opening his mouth, silently telling her to do the same. but she couldn't, goddammit JJ she thought

"JJ you know i cant eat right now!" she scoffed, she was annoyed on the outside but her heart was exploding on the inside.

"what? you haven't eaten all day coz of your stubborn ass trying to be Einstein or some shit, Mr. Carrera isn't here, and i took out (a hot dog topping you don't like) coz i know you don't like it" he smiled genuinely as if he was proud of himself, he knew she couldn't resist his 'sweet innocent smile' that's how he made her do some crazy shit that were definitely dangerous but created beautiful memories. sighing dramatically she gave in muttering a quick "fuck you" under her breath, no doubt about him hearing it since his grin grew 100 times wider.

he basically shoved the whole hot dog to her face, quickly getting a napkin to wipe off the ketchup before Mr Carrera would see anything. "atta girl" he took a bite off the hot dog slowly beginning to relax. y/n was pouting, playfully glaring at JJ for him winning but grateful nonetheless, and he knew that. "see? it wasn't so bad" he shrugged, extending the hotdog for her to take another bite but then catching her boss in the corner of his eye immediately retracting it and taking a bite again.

"that was close" she hissed "but thank you" she smiled, leaning in and kissing him. like really kissing him! startling the both of them. when she realized what she was absentmindedly doing, she pulled away but not in JJ's watch. he kissed back hovering over her slightly, hand going to her waist pulling her closer as the other cupped her left cheek deepening the kiss.  after a few seconds they pulled away, eyes both wide in disbelief. he couldn't stop looking at her, his heart was practically exploding by the time he saw her smile growing.

"i think i should be thanking you" he grinned causing her to punch his shoulder lightly, suddenly getting shy from his presence. taking her tray she waved at the group, cheeks burning as she realized that the group was watching the whole thing. "bye" she squeaked, sprinting to the kitchen. gasping slightly from the running her face broke out into another gorgeous smile. she squealed as she took everything in.

while JJ was being mobbed by his friends teasing him and asking him all sorts of stupid questions, ignoring all of them, just thinking about her soft lips on his, already craving it her touch again.

"i dont think i've ever seen JJ blush before?" sarah commented, smirking at the flustered boy that was playing with his hat nervously.

"me neither" John B continued

"my theory is correct, JJ Maybank does become a softie to a girl he actually likes" pope raised his finger dramatically.

"yeah stop being soft man, it doesn't look good on you" John B snickered to which JJ flipped him off

"shut up"

ive been so caught up in school that i finished this in 2 weeks 😭 2 WEEKS and yes and its rushed since i have to go study anyways hope you guys enjoyed it and feel free to request smthg!

"ITS YOUR FAULT WE'RE LATE, JJ" john B yelled at his still sleepy best friend that wont stop yawning, his books were lazily wrapped by his tanned arms. his ocean blue eyes were a seconds away from closing for the 14th time today, but he found himself tripping over by a pair of legs instead, which caused his books to fly off his arms collapsing with the other persons books "ugh shit" JJ grumbled, his hands rubbing the back of his already throbbing head.

"oh my god, i am so so sorry" the panicked girl apologized, trying to pick out her books from the mess she accidentally caused. JJ was already giving that person a death glare even without seeing them, but when he locked eyes with her, his eyes immediately softened.

"no no, its okay" JJ said rather calmly, surprising himself by how he handled the situation. hell, even john B was shocked. normally, JJ would yell at anyone who pissed him off, or bump into him for that matter, when he's hungover. but he couldnt even think of getting angry at her right now. "are you okay" JJ chuckled slightly grabbing his books, then reaching his hands out for the y/h/c haired girl infront of him to which she thanked him for, slowly getting up from the hallway floor.

"y-yeah im fine. But shouldn't I be the one to ask you that, since i was the one who bumped into you?" she said looking down at her floral dress sheepishly, suddenly forgetting about her little morning crisis.

"nah, im okay." he shrugged "im JJ" he extended his right hand for the girl to shake but much to your-and his-dismay you couldn't, one more move and all your books would collapse on the floor again. "oh" once JJ realized the problem, he awkwardly scratched the back of his neck, chuckling in embarrassment causing her to laugh with him.

before y/n could say her name the bell rang for the last time, meaning class has already started, and you do NOT wanna be late to Mr. Dandills class. "oh shit, uhm got to go....bye" you sprinted again you y/h/c hair flying by how fast you were running, but that didnt stop you from hearing what he said

"talk later, flower!" Y/n heard him yell, practically hearing the smile in his voice. She shook her head in laughter, still sprinting back to class. in most cases y/n'd  roll your eyes or get creeped out when people, especially strangers, call her by nicknames. but she knew why he called her that, and she loved it. looking down at her white summer dress that had small colourful flowers scattered around everywhere, she couldn't stop smiling "i knew this dress was a good pick"

sighing gratefully, y/n luckily made it to physics class in no time. as she sat down, finally catching her breath. She got out her physics book and put all the other books in her already opened bag.

"Good morning students, I would like all of you to open page 126" Mr. Dandill spoke sternly yet calmly, not wanting to waste any time. The girls eye brows furrowed as she was flicking through the pages. At first she didn't notice how the edges of the cover of the book was torn slightly, or the small little drawings that were scribbled on the corners of each page, but what stood out to you was the handwriting, it was messy, but you could understand it, in some of the pages it looked like it was a conversation.

——————————-

Wanna ditch?

The class JUST started

So what?

——————————-

Pope are you sure mr. Dandill isn't talking gibberish at this point?

Well maybe if you payed attention instead of whining your ass off, you'd actually understand it.

Ouch

Shut up.

——————————-

and so on, this was definitely not y/n's book. She silently prayed that at least the person owning this book wrote their name in the back...and luckily they did.

JJ Maybank

goddammit JJ.

after physics y/n kept searching for JJ, but he was nowhere to be seen, she guessed that maybe he skipped because of the amount of times he wrote it in his physics book 'guess i'll ask for it next monday' she thought, since it was friday.

🏄‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️

the first bell rang through the school halls, kids scramming to get to their class early while others trying to sneak out. to say it was choatic was clearly an understatement. praying with each step that you wont get stepped on, or bumped into, or your books falling off like last time, was stressful. yet, sometimes y/n wished she could, coz that moment lead to her meeting a mysterious, cute blonde, y/n was never into blondes, but somehow this guy made her swoon, made her heart thump, made her body tingle everywhere...made her smile. even though she had a quiz a few minutes after, even though she was stressed as hell, he made her smile for the first time that day.

of course all she could think about was about the boy, JJ. i mean whats not to like about him? he is basically the opposite of her but maybe thats why shes attracted to him, she liked that he was very outgoing, loud, and sarcastic. and yes, of course shes seen him before, i mean she'd steal glances here and there, she would hear his voice from the other side of the hallway yelling at his  friend for 'being a pussy'. she knew him, to a certain level, yet she couldnt find him that weekend to exchange books. where has he gone?

y/n shook off her thoughts that were the same for the last 3 days now, opening her locker carefully coz if she did it in a hurry she knew it would take her at least 10 minutes to open it, so slowly and calmly it is.

when she successfully opened the locker, she placed all her book in, except JJ's since it was physics and she needed a book, so might as well use the one she got, right? but before she could close the locker again, she noticed familiar stickers that were covering the corners and the side of a book, the blue and gold stickers that she got specifically for that subject coz if she chose any other colour it would simply seem like a crime for her. she had simple colour coded rules, theyre not that hard!

red and gold for biology

green and gold for chemistry

and blue and gold for physics.....physics?...PHYSICS!?!?

"no way" she whispered in shock, immediately stuffing JJ's book (with care) to take the other book "it really is my book" y/n looked at it in surprise. did she not have her book before? was it in her locker all along? orrr??

but all her questions were answered when she read the sticky note that was pasted on the top right corner of the book, you knew exactly who wrote it, and it cleared all your suspicions. i mean, of course you'll remember his handwriting since you've been studying from his book all weekend! and it looks like he does nothing but write on it, so you could recognize his handwriting anywhere at this point.

the blue eyed boy never seemed to fail to make you smile, even if its intentional or not. it did not only made you whole day, but your whole week.

xxxxxxxx (my number)

call me, you're cute, flower ;)

- JJ

and thats a wrap for my very first JJ Maybank imagine!! ahhhh. feel free to comment any suggestions!
