After what seemed to be 30 minutes of waiting in line at starbucks. Finally the barista asks what you want and you order. "Yea can I have a double Expresso please?" You ask.When you place your order a guy next to you orders the exact same thing. You don't bother to even look because you know that you are just being hit on again. After you broke up with your boyfriend 2 years ago you vowed to yourself to never have a boyfriend even again. You left him when you were 18 because he was abusing you. Mentally emotionally sexually and physically. You finally called the police in him and you were not ready for any sort of commitment yet. "K that'll be ready soon" the barista says. "K thanks" you say. You walked over to the waiting area and you noticed that someone was walking over to you. He was really cute. "Hello" he says. You are startled because you didn't expect him to talk to you. I stare at him in awe. He must have noticed because he cleared his throat. I looked down at my feet and said "sorry". I said sheepishly. "It's ok" cute coffee boy says to me. I turn to look at him and smile. I was about to ask him for his number but the barista interrupted me. " Order for y/n!" I look over to the barista and back at cute coffee boy. "Talk to you later I guess." I said. He opened his mouth to say something else but I turned on my heel faster than he could say Expresso. I got my drink from the barista and smiled and wished her a happy day before I headed off to work. I work in a bath and body works with my best friend Abby. I have known Abby for a long time, as long as I can remember. All I know is that we met at school and we have been glued by the hip ever since. I hopped into my car and headed the 15 minutes it took me to get to work. By the time I got there I still had about 10 minutes before I had to check in. I didn't really want to be in there longer than I had to. After working there for so long my sense of smell has slowly stared to disappear. But I didn't really mind. I worked 5 days a week and never worked on weekends. I started to head around the mall to hot topic I was only looking around I didn't really want to buy a shirt. After a few more minutes of looking around, I looked at my phone and realized my shift started in 3 minutes. I rushed back over to Bath and body works and was greeted by Abby telling me to man the register for the first hour. I headed over and got ready to chill and set in. Because it was morning not a lot of people came into the mall unless they were looking of r a gift for someone and because it was the middle of July no one really came in. I helped out 1 person my first hour then me and Abby switched. I was rearranging our candle display when I saw a familiar head if thick brown hair bob up and down throughout the store and go up to the register. You look at Abby as her head is nodding and she points directly at you. You turn around and act as if you are busy rearranging the candles even more. You hear footsteps come up behind you and a very quite " e-excuse me? Can you help me real quick?" You turn around with a smile on your face and you lock eyes with the candle boy. It was him.
