"HI WELCOME TO the Sundance Cafe! What can I get started for you guys?" The cheery voice asked. The couple ordered and the joyous server wrote it down.

Her long black hair bounced behind her as she trailed her Vans clad feet to the kitchen to give the ticket to the chefs.

Her warm, dark brown eyes shined as went out the doors and leaned against the smoothie bar counter.

"Dixie, what time do you clock out today?" another woman asked, wiping down glasses.

Dixie looked at the clock then back at her best friend. "7:30," she replied. "I only have 15 minutes so unless that couple eats at the speed of light, I'll have to ask Zachary to fill in for me." She referred to another staff member, another one of her friends.

"Perfect! I clock out at 7:45 so if you wait for me we can catch a bus together and spend the rest of the night watching movies and eating ice cream!" 

The other woman, Addison, was also her roommate. Usually they'd both get out at 6:30 sharp, but the Sundance Cafe had been getting quite a bit of customers and there weren't enough staff to cover it. So the owner had asked for the staff to stay back later since he had increased store hours. 

It was hard but the extra pay was worth it so the girls both decided to accept.

Dixie chuckled. "Don't forget about dinner."

"Who needs dinner when you can stuff yourself with cookies and cream 'till you bust?" 

"People who need energy for their shift the next day that starts at 8:00 am," Dixie replied.

They relaxed in comfortable silence until they heard a knock against the thin walls that signaled Dixie's dishes were ready. 

She walked through the doors and went out again to serve the couple the food. They thanked her and she walked away. Another table had just left so Dixie grabbed the spray and a rag and cleaned up the table. She gathered plates and utensils and dumped them in the kitchen sink.

She refilled the salt and pepper and fixed up the rest of the table. By the time she was finished her shift was over, so she signed out, put her server apron away, and sat in an empty booth in the corner of the cafe.

Dixie pulled out her phone and scrolled through Instagram waiting for Addison's shift to finish.

Soon enough she felt a tap on her shoulder and looked up to see Addison waiting for her.

"If we're quick, we can catch the bus," she told her.

Dixie slid her phone into her pocket and both girls left the cafe slightly jogging to the bus station.

They arrived just in time and they slid into their seats as the bus took off.

The girls looked at their phones for a good 10 minutes before the bus driver called off their station and they got off the bus.

They both took the elevator up to the 5th floor and unlocked the door to their apartment.

They put their jackets on a coat rack and they both changed into their pajamas. While Addison got out the ice cream, Dixie turned on the TV and played Vampire Diaries.

They shoveled ice cream into their mouths as they swooned over the drool worthy characters.

"Ugh, I ship Delena so bad," Dixie groaned as she watched a scene with Stefan and Elena. "I don't know why Elena's being with him."

Addison gasped. "How? Stefan and Elena are literally soulmates."

"Sure, sure, then why do Damon and Elena end up together?" 

Addison elbowed Dixie playfully. "Shut up,"

"You're just mad that Delena will be forever," Dixie said, sticking her nose up in the air.

Addison threw a pillow at Dixie and she gasped. Dixie put the ice cream down and sent a pillow flying at Addison's head. 

It hit her right in the face and Addison put her game face on. "Oh, its on," she challenged.

And so then the ice cream and the TV show were forgotten and the pillow fight commenced.
