Blind Onion Pizza Portland Novels & Stories

“Deal!” We stopped by a small pizza shop downtown, one of those old places with neon signs buzzing faintly in the window. The smell hit the moment we stepped in—fresh dough, melted cheese, oregano. Leo darted to the counter, peering into the glass case like it was treasure. “Pepperoni and mushrooms,” he announced, pointing. “And root beer!” “Root beer?” I repeated, arching a brow. “You know what that does to you at night.”

Many things. “I am hungry!” She shouted. “Took you long enough!” One of the men slammed back. “Get her some food, we are not supposed to harm her.” Another one of the men added. Lily waited for food to be brought to her. A few minutes later, the man dropped a box of pizza in front of her. She didn't see it but she could scent the pepperoni and cheese. “How can I eat with this blindfold?” She asked. “I was going to lose it.” The man huffed and then yanked the clothes from her face. The brightness in the room got her to close her eyes very quickly. It took some seconds for her eyes to adjust to the brightness.

“Bruh, for real, for real? I’m making a pie each. The veggie one is all yours and another one for Chloe. Two meats for Case and Slade. A Hawaiian for Rin. I wasn’t sure what your friends would want, so I made a four cheese for the chick and yogurt and a fruit smoothie for the burnt guy. Slade’s and Casen’s are on the counter there. Here is Sev’s and the chick’s. I’m sticking Chloe’s and Rin’s in right now and getting ready to make mine.” “Kesha! You’re the absolute best! I love your Hawaiian pizza. Did you make it with your homemade barbeque sauce?” Rin makes a beeline to the counter and pulls the towel off of the top of her pizza. She brings it up to her nose and takes a deep i

she asked, settling in close to him with her pizza balanced in her lap. Clayton knocked his shoulder against hers and then frowned at me. “That’s not the pizza that you ordered,” he said, pointing at the extra cheesy slice of buffalo chicken pizza that Annabelle had wordlessly handed me. We all laughed. “You get to expect this sort of thing with Dino’s,” Mom explained to him.

He arrived a half hour later with a pizza box tucked under his arm and a paper bag in his hand. “I didn’t think you ate pizza,” I said. As he placed the box on my desk, I looked for any sign that he was thinking about our kiss. “Why not?” he responded. “Everyone eats pizza, and this isn’t just any pizza.” Was it my imagination, or was his smile more intimate? And when he handed me a paper plate, his fingers definitely lingered when they touched mine. I looked inside the pizza box. “What’s on it?” “Shiitake mushrooms, shaved porterhouse steak, caramelized onions, and olives,” he replied.

Before he could ask Darren about it, the boy was already running to get something from the freezer. “We made this today with Ms Horton!” Oliver toddled over with a ziplock bag in his hands. Darren followed after him with a ziplock bag of his own. Richard wondered what he was looking at in those ziplock bags for a while. Fortunately, he didn’t need to think about it for too long as the boys proudly presented their version of a toast pizza with the ingredients they added onto them. “There are mushrooms in this. I made sure to put a lot of cheese so you can eat this at work tomorrow!” Oliver cheered.

“You haven’t spoken to them since?” “No,” Raven finished the beer. “Another?” He asked. “Yeah, thanks. Should we order pizza?” Shadow opened his phone. “What do you like on it?” “Meat, no fruit.” Shadow snorted his laughter. “You have a problem with pineapple?” “And olives. They grow on trees, so they’re a fruit, right?” “I guess so,” Shadow was flummoxed. “I’ve never thought about it. Now I’m going to have to look it up. Garlic bread?”

I could already catch a whiff of pizza from outside. It smelled incredible. “Amazing, right?” He whispered in my ear out of the blue, and his warm breath caressed my ear. I swung my head so fast our lips almost touched for a second, sending chills through my entire body. I swallowed, getting a grip on myself as my body trembled. His face was flushed, and I imagine mine must be the same. Miguel turned away, looking at the pizza place, “La Notizia is one of the most famous pizza places in the city—”

I smile. “You are welcome” he sits up and open the pizza box, “pepperoni with beef, chicken and pineapple, just how you like it” he pushes the box to me. “How…how do you remember this?” He takes a slice from his own box, “it was the most disgusting order in high school Lorrie, it's not easy to forget” I take a slice and it melts in my mouth, I moan from the goodness, “from papies?” “You know it, only the best in town” he smirks, “you're welcome again” he laughs.
