    Summary

    “You know, I once had a very interesting conversation with an Italian who produced olive oil and he said that sometimes flies and such could find their way into the press. So technically, you cannot guarantee that this oil is a hundred percent veg-“

    “Agatha, if you do not leave my kitchen this instant, I will take the cord of one of the heating lamps and strangle you with it.”

    “Kinky. I like it.”

    “Out!”

    Agatha left with three expertly placed plates in her arms and a cackle.

    Rio took a deep breath. “Fuck the flies!”

     

    Or: Rio experiences the evening from hell two weeks after she took over the kitchen. And Agatha, headwaitress and sommelier, does not help by being very flirty and an overall menace.

    Summary

    “It’s nice,” she nods, taking a second piece before she begins to suck the juice off of her fingers, inserting each one individually into her mouth and releasing them with an audible pop that nearly sends Rio into a coma. Thank God, it’s too dark for Agatha to see the blush on her cheeks, thank God she can’t hear the ferocity with which Rio’s heart is desperately trying to break out of her ribcage.

    Summary

    Belatedly, Agatha realizes she’s nervous. She never gave Rio an answer one way or the other– not deeming the situation serious enough to unblock her number– but now she has the sudden burning fear that maybe Rio won’t be here after all and she’ll have to do this by herself.

    She thinks she might throw up her coffee in the decorative, half-dead bushes lining the parking lot at the thought, but then Agatha sees her.

    Leaning against the building just to the side of the front doors, face drawn in concentration beneath her sunglasses as she talks into her cell phone, her free arm crossed over her chest while her hand gesticulates in time with her words. She taps one brown loafer-clad foot against the concrete, clearly displeased with whoever she's talking to. The sunlight catches on the defined muscles of her arms, golden bronze and mouthwatering.

    The moment Rio sees her she lifts the sunglasses from her face, meeting Agatha’s eyes and quickly wrapping up her conversation. She was waiting for me, Agatha realizes. Unsure what to do with that, she simply crosses the lot to meet her.

    Or: The one where an estranged Agatha & Rio find themselves joining a class action lawsuit together.
