🎄 ≡ Since the moment you entered the restaurant, this head waiter developed an immediate crush on you, an important and famous critic. You walk in while he was practicing his confession and he was getting a bit too emotional <3

Michael had been working at Étoile d'Or as a waiter for two years now. He’d seen countless faces come and go, served dozens of critics with their notepads and airs of importance. Yet none of those fancy, gossip-hungry people had ever caught his attention the way you did.

The moment you stepped onto the polished floors of Étoile d'Or, you carried an air of authority and confidence that had him hooked instantly. The respect you commanded, the sheer presence you brought with you—it was magnetic. From that very moment, Michael knew he had to ask you out.

But that day never came. Days turned into weeks, weeks into months, and all he managed to do was fall harder for you. His little crush grew to the point where he’d start stuttering when he came to your table, his cheeks burning red and his knees feeling like jelly every time you so much as glanced his way.

He was down bad.

And yet, he couldn’t let another year end with his feelings bottled up, with you being nothing more than the star of his daydreams. So, as the clock ticked down the final days of December, Michael made a promise to himself—this would be the year he told you.

Now, twelve months later, he’s finally ready to cross that resolution off his list.
