Naomi walked into work on Saturday full of energy and eagerness. It was not the eagerness to serve fries and burgers though, but what was going to happen tonight after work. Alayna, her best friend since the first grade, had scored some weed and beer and tonight they were going to partake in her spoils. It was something they both wanted and felt was needed as their basketball season was over and they had nothing going on until the summer time.
Alayna had broken up with her boyfriend DaJuan two weeks ago and it was her idea to have a night of partying and drinking. Even though it was just the two of them, the idea of enjoying some beer and getting high was enough to forget their worries. Naomi knew she had the beer at her house while Alayna had the weed on her after bragging how she bought some at school. All she needed to do now was survive the day, then head back home with her friend and chill.
She opened the doors to McDonald's and quickly walked in the back to punch in. She had her black pants on, uniform tucked in and was ready to put in a full eight hour shift before letting go and partying. Her long black wavy hair was pulled tight into a ponytail and her eyeliner done just right. Her caramel skin tone was perfect for the shades of makeup she wore although today she skipped it as it was work and not needed.
It was the tail end of her senior year and all that was left was to wait it out until college started. She got her acceptance letter to state college with a partial scholarship for track. Even though she played volleyball too, she only needed to run track and pay for half her tuition and she was set.
The smell of fast-food filled her nostrils as the start of her shift was a swipe away with her time card. Her station was the register and she walked by Alayna smiling as they both knew tonight was going to be fun. Working as much as they could to earn money was important, but tonight was a much needed break. With a quick smile and giggle to her friend, she was off to the registers to help customers for eight hours.
The customers were flowing like a raging river and Naomi handled each one like a surgeon during an operation. She got a few smiles and stares from customers and her smile could turn even the rudest customers into smiling patrons. Naomi knew a quick flash of her smile worked, but she was not naive and knew boys looked at her ass. The odd feeling she got when she knew someone's eyes were staring at her ass made her feel sexy at times, but at work, it was just weird as the mood was not right for it. She also knew it was not entirely their fault as the pants she wore hugged her hips and ass tightly showing off her curves that her ass had.
Alayna teased her about the leggings she wore and how she was a dick tease by wearing them at school. Naomi shrugged it off and smiled at times knowing she was forced to wear such tight uniforms for volleyball. Her ass was small and had a small bubble shape that gave it a perfect curve to it. Her breasts were not large, but on her slim athletic body, they seemed to give her the illusion of being bigger than they actually were.
The day dragged on and what seemed to be an endless supply of customers. The pay was decent and the hours perfect as she was able to pick the times and days she wanted to work. Her family was barely able to pay rent and going to college was not something they could help out with. Naomi knew the struggles her mom went through and making something of herself was her goal in life.
The best part of the job was the end goal of getting a scholarship for food and books. The owner was so keen on getting kids to work there that he offered a scholarship to high school kids who were both student-athletes and had more than a year of exemplary work in the store. Naomi was one of two finalists for this scholarship and all she needed to do was keep her grades high and work until summer came. She knew she was going to get it too as the other girl did not have the same grades as her.
Alayna pulled her aside so no customers could hear. "I have my stuff in my car. What time is your mom coming home tomorrow?"
"She is not coming home until late. The house is ours...but we can't leave the bottles anywhere."
"Oh, we got this girl...I can take the trash with me when I leave."
Naomi smiled and walked off seeing a customer come up to her register. It was near the end of her shift and in a few minutes she would be off and having a relaxing night with her best friend drinking and getting high.
Naomi turned up the radio and sang along as her friend drove her home. The music was blaring as she enjoyed the moment of not having work or school for two days. The idea of getting drunk and high was something they both talked about but knew they had to wait as their sports schedules dictated they keep a clean life.
Alayna was spread out on the couch rolling a joint as Naomi opened the bottle of beer taking a quick sip. Naomi looked at her friend wondering if she was going to be accepted into the same college with her. Alayna was a taller girl and the team's star center and could get a basketball scholarship if her grades were better. Naomi had the smaller athletic body while Alayna was taller and more filled out. She was not fat, but had meat on her bones and breasts that were more pronounced.
The only difference was grades and outlook on life and boys. Alayna played the field dating boys all through Middle School and High School. Naomi only dated Sean and that was over a year ago. Where Alayna talked about her conquests, Naomi only mentioned that Sean was her first.
Alayna sat on the couch taking the first hit of the joint. "You know Kyle is looking to get with you."
Naomi took another swig of beer and reached for the joint. "He be trying to score with everyone."
"True that, but he is talking about getting with you though."
"Yeah, I bet...but he ain't getting none of this. I don't want some playa who is just into tapping asses and bragging all over about it."
"You need to get some dick before you leave school though. I know you ain't had nothing since Sean."
"I don't plan on getting any either," she answered, feeling that she did not want some boy bragging about scoring with her.
"I should be enjoying life a bit before college. I know you are going to get wrapped up in work and never go out. I am not saying you should date him or anything...just get some dick is all."
"I am not just getting some dick, and not from the likes of Kyle," she answered letting her mind wander to thoughts of finding some college guy who was in love with her and would do anything for her.
"I think you're afraid."
"I ain't afraid," Naomi snapped back, feeling the buzz of the alcohol and the calming effects of the weed.
