Mariah plucked you up between two fingers before depositing you in the palm of her other hand.
“Alright, little cutie, let’s show you around. Get you used to where you’ll be working,” she seemed excited to have you on board. The same could not be said for Phoebe, who was still giving you looks of disgust and also wanting to mess with you.
Mariah briskly walked into the kitchen, where you could see several people were already busy getting everything ready for opening.
“Ok little guy, this is the kitchen. I think we’ll start you off in here today, but we can get to that in a little bit. Say hi to your cute new coworker ladies,” as she said this, the kitchen staff paused what they were doing to look at you and when they saw you they all waved. Some said hello, others remarked at how cute they found you. At least everyone back here seemed nice.
With that she moved through a side door into a small room with a few couches, a coffee table, and a countertop with a microwave and a coffee pot. It looked well decorated and cozy.
“This is the break room, I tried to make it as cozy as possible. I’ll also see if I can get some stuff appropriate for your size on the counter top. Wouldn’t want a cute little thing like yourself to have to share the couch with us big girls,” she looked down at you with a warm expression. You appreciated the lengths she seemed to be going to to make your time working here easy. Although the way she seemed to fuss over you was a little embarrassing.
Finally Mariah walked through a door on the other side of the break room, leading into a small office space with two desks. You could see one of them, which was very disorganised and untidy, had a picture of Mariah and her family, pretty much giving away that this was her desk. The other was more organised, but was covered in various documents and invoices, however it was currently empty, it’s occupant wasn’t here yet.
“This is Stefanie’s, our accountant, and my office. I’m not in here very much, paperwork’s not really my thing. I prefer to be in the kitchen making delicious food!” You could tell from the way that Mariah excitedly talked about her job that she loved it very much.
“So, it’ll take a few days for us to get you a uniform, we’ve never had a little cutie like yourself before so we don’t have any uniforms that’ll fit you. For today I think the best thing is for you to be my adorable little assistant in the kitchen. We can maybe get you to do customer service another day, I’m sure a little thing like yourself would be very popular with our customers but to start you off I think kitchen experience is better,” you nodded as Mariah finished explaining things to you and she smiled warmly in return.
“Sounds good to me boss,” you replied with confidence. In truth however you were incredibly nervous. A kitchen could be a dangerous place for someone your size, but you didn’t want to disappoint your new boss on the first day, or Morgan and Avery for that matter either, they seemed pretty excited for you to work with their mom.
With the tour over with Mariah sets you down on her desk. You try not to move too far just in case she loses you amongst all the stuff on her desk. After setting you down she went to grab her apron and started to look for her hairnet but after a few minutes of looking she let out a frustrated sigh.
“Where is my hairnet, I’m sure I left it in this office before I left last night. What am I going to do, I can’t cook with my hair down like this, I need to find something to hold my hair back,” as she said this her eyes drifted to you with a pleading look that worried you. “Hey little guy, I need to ask you for a huge favour, I can’t seem to find my hairnet, and I can’t cook with my hair down like this. Would you be fine with me using you as a hair band for today, we can get to training you tomorrow?”
As you looked up at her warm, smiling face you struggled to find a reason to say no. Her low cut top displaying her abundant cleavage also distracted you from thinking of any reasons to say no.
“Y-yeah sure, whatever you need, boss,” you sheepishly smiled up to her, dreading this shift now that you were going to have to spend it as an object.
“Yay, oh thank you so much you little cutie. I don’t know what I would have done without ya!” Her relieved expression eased your apprehension about this situation, she wasn’t doing this out of maliciousness, just that she needed help. Plus she was your boss so helping her out with this favour could only be a good thing, right?
After thanking you, Mariah quickly picked you up and began to stretch you out, before pulling her hair back into a bun and wrapping you around it, holding it in place.
“Thanks so much little guy, just hold out till the end of the shift and then I’ll let you out ok?” With that, Mariah quickly strode out into the kitchen.
The rest of the day went by fairly uneventfully, you served as Mariah’s hair tie well while she prepared countless delicious meals, all the while she was happily humming a song when she wasn’t communicating with her staff. Her hair smelled fruity from the shampoo she must have washed it with, although towards the end the smell of grease and burgers began to overtake it. Other than that it was kind of boring. Mariah acknowledged you every now and then, asking how you were doing before realising you couldn’t talk in your stretched out form and giggling to herself for her silliness.
Eventually the day came to an end and, after serving her last burger of the day, Mariah went back into her office and took off her apron and then you. She smiled down at you, easing your fear that she may have forgotten you.
“You did great little guy. Tomorrow I think we’ll get you to do some stuff in the kitchen though, I don’t think you signed up to be my hair tie, but if you ever feel like a career change you’re pretty good at it,” she laughed at her own joke. “Anyway they’ll be almost ready to close up shop, let’s get out of here, little guy.”
1) Mariah drives you home and says she’ll be back tomorrow to pick you up again at the same time.
2) Tomorrow is the day for giving the kitchen a deep clean before opening so you and Mariah will need to be in early, so she takes you home to spend the night with her and Lilyana.
3) She asks Phoebe to take you home as she has somewhere else to be. Will Phoebe take you home?
