Chapter 1 Katie's ordinary world
Katie took a deep breath as she tied the dingy white apron around her waist, preparing for another long shift at the truck stop diner just outside of town. The place was always busy but rarely pleasant, packed with truckers and travelers stopping for some hearty, greasy food on their journeys through. At 25, Katie hoped she wouldn't be serving chicken fried steaks and lukewarm coffee forever, but her shift manager position at Highway Homestyle would have to do while she worked her way through night school.
"Order up, Katie!" the cook yelled as the bell dinged. Katie tucked her pen behind her ear and loaded up three plates along her arm, expertly navigating through the sea of tables. Her feet ached as she attended to customers, offering warm smiles and quick service even if her mind was focused on the economics paper she had to write that night.
The loud roar of a motorcycle interrupted Katie's thoughts. She looked up to see a leather jacket clad, helmet-haired man saunter through the entrance. He looked out of place surrounded by truckers and families. The man scanned the diner slowly, seemingly taking in his surroundings before his gaze landed directly on Katie. She felt her cheeks involuntarily flush as he held eye contact with her. Who was this stranger? Katie watched him choose a booth in her section, unable to peel her eyes away from his broad shoulders as he removed his jacket.
"Katie! You're spillin' that coffee, girl!" Cook shouted at her. Katie broke away from the stranger's gaze and realized she had overfilled a cup, sending hot coffee pooling over the counter. She cleaned up the mess and took a deep breath, willing herself not to glance back at the mysterious leather jacket man here in her ordinary small town diner world. Something about him felt dangerously exciting.
