Clay wakes up to the light shining on his face, a lit up room and the smell of rain. It rains a lot in his hometown which he doesn't mind because its peaceful. He hops out of his bed and goes to get ready for his daily shift at his families cafe. Clay has moved out of his home but still works his parents, His younger sister is still in high school trying to study as best as she can. 

Clay hated how he looked, he looks at himself in the mirror and sighs as he put his mask over his face, for years on end in school he was teased because of how skinny he was and his face was used as a punching bag that's why he wears a mask wherever he goes, only his family knows what Clay looks like.


George, a university student who goes to the cafe to study in his non school life is a popular streamer for twitch, he plays mine-craft with his friends. George lives with his parents but he's the only child which makes George very attention wise. He never really feels any emotional connections as his childhood was filled with the arguments of his parents.

George gets ready to go ahead and study at the cafe, putting his favourite pokemon shirt and his jeans and off he goes.


GEORGE POV

I turned my car engine on and played my playlist from Spotify. The car ride to the cafe wasn't long but when i arrived i jumped out and grabbed my things from the passengers side. I always go to this cafe to study, i don't know it's just very calming for me and it's not far from the school i attend. I locked my car and walked towards the door opening it and closing, as i was about to sit i tripped over someones foot but someone caught me.

CLAY POV

It's just another day at my families cafe, we work hard for it. It's not easy running a cafe with only three people but we make it work, i start doing my usual and cleaning the tables when i saw someone trip and he looked like he was about to fall. I rushed over and caught the boy.

(for the purpose of the story switch clay's and george's ages ()() Clay 23 George 21 ()() )

THIRD PERSON POV

Clay caught George with no time to spare making sure his items wouldn't fall on the floor and smash.

"Thank you..." George said awkwardly getting up from Clays grip.

"Are you alright? and it's no problem at all." Clay said making sure he was okay when he stood up, passing George his things back.

"I um yeah- Wait are you going to kidnap me your mask-" Clay rolls his eyes.

"It's apart of my uniform, i'm not going to kidnapp you i work here." Clay replied "So are you actually alright?" He asked again.

"Sorry- Yeah i'm okay, It's funny you say that you work here i've never seen you before." George gave his smile to Clay. 

"My name is Clay, i only work on Mondays and Fridays. Funny cause i never see you either-?" Clay said waiting for George to say his name.

"George. My name is George, nice to meet you." Clay just smiled and George smiled back at him. "I'm gonna go sit down now, i need to study." 

And with that he walks off.

30 mins later CLAY POV

"sapnap im not kidding, HIS HAIR WAS SO FLUFFY!" Clay said into the phone, not wanting to be too loud.

"Man, Clay you're literally 23 and you're calling me because someone's hair was fluffy?" Clay sighed and rolled his eyes at his best friend.

"You just don't understand, i'll call you after my shift is done." Clay. hanged up and realised that the cafe is closing in five minuets, George still studying. 

I walk over to George and gently tap the desk not trying to scare him as he had headphones in. 

"The cafe is closing in five minuets..." I said.

"Oh shoot! do you know if anyone else is open later? i really need to study for my uni test tomorrow." George said, i smiled. 

So he goes to uni, the only uni here in this small town is the one down the street. CLAY stop thinking of stalking the poor boy oh my god. 

"Uh... i don't think so, i can stay back a bit and let you study until your ready to leave?" George looked at me and the eyes said it all.

"Please." George said, and i instantly nodded but i was still staring at him.


THIRD PERSON POV

Both George and Clay have been staring at each other for a good few seconds when Clay stops.

"I really like your hair, it's fluffy." Clay said earning a laugh from George. 

"Thank you Clay." George then went back to studying

George's side profile made Clay curse inside, how was he so...perfect? Clay wish he was like him.

1 hour later

"Hey Clay i think i'm okay now." George exclaimed and packed up his stuff.

Clay wouldn't be lying if he didn't want to stay the whole night to just stare at George. 

"Okay that's great. I'll see you another time. Until we meet again." Clay said smiling at George, as the younger just chuckled.

"Thank you for catching me when i nearly fell. Much appreciated." George said while walking out.

Clay could hear his heart beating out of his chest, oh to be pretty like George.
