Since, for a change, James had managed to get a decent night's rest he got up early, with a plan to make breakfast. He got a quick shower before he got to work, quickly doing maintenance work, keeping his body shaved and otherwise well groomed. His skin was smooth again and he actually felt somewhat good, healthy even. So this is what it feels like to not have to rush out the door for class. I'm definitely taking the summer off from classes. Maybe I won't feel like shit every morning. It was about 6:48 when he pulled out some ham and diced it up, some green peppers and sliced them to small strips. He grabbed a bag of shredded cheese, and pulled out some diced tomatoes, and then began putting Bacon on the stove. He began pulling out eggs from the fridge and set them on the counter, pulling the trash can close by for ease of access. He pulled out his phone and went into the family thread. 'Everyone up! Let's go! Omelettes are on the menu for breakfast, I'm taking orders now. We have ham, Green peppers, cheese, diced tomatoes, and delicious Bacon! Who wants what?'
He was in a great mood so far, especially after how surprisingly well last night had gone, sure he had to abandon the date, but he certainly hadn't planned on going out on one last night anyway. Perhaps he'd give Vanessa a call later, and then Nathan to apologize for ditching them. And then there was the fact that Olivia, sweet little Olivia, found out his secret and he had worried over nothing. He was more than ready to take on today. As soon as Sophi gets down here, we have to talk about what the plan is for today. The diner isn't going to survive if we remain as understaffed as we are. While he waited for his siblings to give their orders and make their way downstairs, he pulled out his phone and began checking out Fanfiction.net again, looking for any updates.
Fortunately he found an update on one of the newer stories he had followed. It was a Full Metal Alchemist piece by the title of HalfMetal Heart, and while it wasn't one of the better stories he had read, it wasn't bad. He's read a lot worse too, stories so bad he was pretty sure he had lost brain cells while reading it. It is a good thing that the brain doesn't actually work that way. He snorted at the idea, as he set the phone on the counter as he tended to the succulent, divine Bacon. He'll begin putting it on a plate soon to go on the table, but until then he'd have to stand guard. He knew Sophi would come and grab some without remorse if he let her, but when he could sit down and eat, he'd enforce the same rules Riley did, especially No one touches their food until everyone is sitting. Though this might be an exception because it's not exactly easy to mass produce omelettes without using two of the burners, and omelettes are much better warm.
