âMay I have the⌠king burger and a side of the Parmesan truffle fries please?â This food truck was your favorite in the city, it just so happened to be parked right outside of your job, and definitely served up some spicy creole flavors. It had gumbo and jambalaya by the cup, a burger that shouldnât work as an ode to kings bread but it did and fresh beignets straight from the fryer if you had a sweet tooth.Â
âWould you like something to drink?â The men who worked it were just a plus, the two of them both terribly handsome, the one currently taking your order was smooth. Impossibly smooth. The gap in his front teeth was incredibly endearing, but the wedding band on his finger and the sweet tone he usually used with you led to you believe his marriage was a happy one.Â
âWeâve got the Big Shot Pineapple back in,â A sweaty bottle placed on the ledge, âI know thatâs your favorite.â And you did love some pineapple soda, but youâd been trying to eat healthier, and ignoring the fact that you were ordering a burger and fries you fought yourself for a moment on whether or not this soda would be too much.Â
âStop pressuring her, Sam.â The man behind him joked, âSheâll get the soda if she wants it.â A smirk on his lips. Your heart skipped a beat. It was no secret to your coworker behind you, Nat, that you had a crush on Bucky Barnes. His strong jaw and bright blue eyes, that tight bun on the back of his head and his fucking biceps. Those strong arms that were wrapped in colorful tattoos. Youâd sat near the food truck every Friday since itâd started parking here two months ago and watched him work.Â
The kind smile heâd give people, the funny remarks as he cooked their food. The sweat dripping down his face as he lifted the lid off the pot of jambalaya to spoon out a portion. Youâd drool over whatever youâd ordered that day watching him work.Â
