I walked back from the coffee shop, balancing a takeaway cup in my left hand as I lit a cigarette.
Suddenly a kid ran past, causing me to spill hot coffee over my shirt.
"You little Pri...."I started as I watched him dash down the street.
A small smile spread across my face as a guy stuck his leg out, tripping the kid over, as he ran past.
I couldn't help the giggle that excaped my lips
The strangers head snapped in my direction.
I couldn't see who it was because he was wearing a hoodie and sunglasses, which covered most of his face.
He studied me for a couple of seconds, looking like he'd been caught out.
A smirk spread across his lips as his eyes met mine.
I inhaled from my cigarette, trying not to smile as he walked over.
"You know you'll go to hell for laughing at things like that?" He mocked, raising his eyebrow.
"You know you'll go to hell for doing things like that?" I shot back sarcastically, looking up at him
"Sweetheart, I'm going to hell for worse than that" he said smirking, clearly impressed with my answer
I laughed inwardly, looking at the ground briefly, before catching his eyes again.
"See you there" I said, putting out my cigarette.
He chuckled inwardly "you might want to change your shirt, you seem to have coffee all down it" he teased
"Ten points for being Observant" I said sarcastically
"Oohhh you've got balls sweetheart" he smirked
"Thanks" I smiled mockingly
"No problem darling" he shot back
"You're funny" I said sarcastically, running my hand through my hair.
"I try" he said matching my tone
"I can tell" I said, pushing myself off the wall I was currently leaning against.
He chuckled "See ya sweetheart" he called as he walked away.
"See you in hell!" I called back sarcastically
