iZombie ( Chapter 8 )

     I look at Dyske for some time and watch him from afar. He changes back into his human form and is the sweetest gay dude I have every met. We walk out of the alley as he takes hold of my hand again, I didn't speak to him after that. 

     We finally get to the diner, I run in and sit at the bar that they had. Dyske walks in calmly and sits next to me, he just sits there. I look at him and see his eyes looked redder than his brown eyes. Domine comes out and tells us what we have to do today, he can tell Dyske is freaking me out. 

" Okay, 1. Dyske you will be making the coffee today. And 2. Stop freaking out Kotaka for me." He laughs

" Yes sir, I'm sorry. I was trying to be nice to him." He smiles at me

" Well, that is freaking him out," Domine explains.

" Well not all of it, I'm just not used to someone like him actually liking me. And I mean his scary side that I kind don't like." I reply

     I get up and go around the diner, getting people orders. They all wanted to try the bosses coffee, which was actually really good. I come to a seat where my friend Jackie was sitting, she smiled at me and ordered her usual, coffee. I laughed and patted her head, I went to Dyske and told him how much coffee to make, as well as food. He was actually the second best person to make the bosses coffee. When I say boss Domine isn't in charge, he is while the real boss is away on business. Nanalai comes in and helps me as a waitress, I think we make a great team. 

" Kotaka can you come here please," Dyske says.

" Sure, what do you want dude," I ask as I get closer to him.

" Uh, can you go give this to Jackie, it's her favorite coffee." he smiles

" Sure thing," I say and smile at him.

Nanalai in her zombie form

     I walk over to her and give her, her coffee. I sit down on the other side of the little table and we talk for about some time. Once everyone left the shop that was human, she turned into her zombie form. So did Dyske, I smiled and stayed in my human form. Nanalai also turned into her zombie form, it was the first time I saw it. She didn't look like the 14-year-old girl I knew. She looked more grown up, I was kind of shocked. 

" What are you doing Red, change already. The Boss is coming back today." Nanalai warned

     I did as she said and waited for some time till the Boss actually arrived at the diner. He didn't look like the Boss of a diner, nor did Domine. He looked more of the boxing type of guy, maybe he actually played in a boxing match. He walked in and looked at all of us, then he looked at Jackie and me.

" Two new zombies working here, well I welcome you both." he said very gently
" Oh, thank you, sir," Jackie said and bowed her head.
" If it wasn't for Hakihu then I wouldn't be here," I say and bow my head as well.
" Well, that Hakihu has a good opinion of new workers like yourself." The boss explains
" I'm sorry sir, but may I ask what I shall call you," I ask
" You may call me by my name Souske, or even Mr, Chang." He smiles
" Thank you sir." I answer and stand back up.

     Behind the boss came in a zombie with blue hair. He looked like a man who liked to dress like women, but then again he was feminine like as he spoke. Souske has purple hair and purple eyes, it didn't look like they were in their zombie forms at all. The man with blue hair went up to Dyske and kissed his cheek. Dyske didn't look at him at all.

" This here is my grandson Tomoe. Pease treat him as if he was an employee." He announced
" Gramps, stop thinking they will. I can control them with my zombie ability." He said
" Fine, but be careful, okay," Souske replied.
" Yes Gramps, I get it." he answered

     I watched as everyone changed into human form, so I followed. Dyske walked over to me and held my arm entwined in his. I guess he didn't like Tomoe that much because he didn't kiss him back. My arm that was open rubbed his head to calm him down. Souske and Tomoe went upstairs, Nanalai followed. Jackie hugged me and left to go feed. Domine stayed downstairs to wait if any other customers came in. Dyske let go of me and whispered "Thankyou" Into my ear. I smiled and nodded my head back at him. Hakihu was cleaning the dishes and drying them. Domine was placing them back onto the shelves. I was impressed the feeling the boss and Tomoe left when they weren't in the room, Domine did say Souske was a nice boss to count on.

" I'm out of here guys." I wave my hand to the others that were there.
" Let me come with you, Tomoe does have friends that kill other zombies." Dyske explained  " I can protect you since you don't have your ability yet."
" Sure thing Dyske." I say and held out my hand.

     I was getting used to Dyske holding my hand all the time. So I let him as he smiled at me. We left the building and walked side by side, he tightened his grip on my hand. I whistled a bit to try to calm down, but I knew something was out in the darkness of the night. I looked at Dyske who nodded at me. In the darkness, we changed into our zombie forms and waited by a street lamp for some of Tomoe's friends to show up.

" Look who we found Ken." Said a man in the darkness
" Two unwanted zombies." Ken followed
" What do you want, Ryo, Ken," Dyske announced
" Oh, Dyske. Thought you and master whould be in bed by now." Ryo laughed
" Stop it, we are doone." Dyske said as he showed them our hands were together
" Wait Dyske, what are you doing," I asked
" Looks like a new zombie." Ken smiled
" Don't touch him, or I will kill both of you." Dyske let go of my hand and weilded a black ball in both of his hands.

     The two men backed up and went back into the darkness. I guess they didn't want to get involved with Dyske's ability. Dyske looked back at me and raced into my arms. For one I was shocked but I had gotten used to him doing this to me. I hugged him back and let him cry on my shoulder.
