It has been two hours since your date was supposed to show up. You decided to stay for 10 minutes more just in case, but in your head you knew they weren't coming.

It had been about 7 minutes of you trying to fight back tears when you started getting ready to go. You packed up your half eaten sandwich and put it in your bag to save for later and gulped the rest of your drink down. Just then, a tall figure walked up to your table. You looked up, hopeful that it was your date.

It wasn't. 

It was a handsome boy who looked around your age. He half-smiled and gave a small wave, and you fought back the tears and gave him a polite smile back.

"Is this seat taken?" he asked.

You glanced over and wiped a tear. "No," you replied quietly.

"Great!" he said as he plopped down into it. "I'm Hunter. Hunter Chen. And you must be," he reached for your cup and read out "Harley Davidson? Isn't that a motorcycle company?" he asked.

You chucked. "I always use a fake name at Starbucks. Today was Harley Davidson, last time was Regina George, and I'm thinking of using Katniss Everdeen next time," you explained.

He looked at you with an unreadable expression and you thought that you had said something wrong, until he bursted out into laughter. "That's brilliant!! I do that too!! I've never met anyone else who isn't afraid to do that!!!"

You started smiling really big and forgot about the date who stood you up. "I'm y/n, I go to school right down the street, where do you go?"

"That's such a pretty name. Y/n. I like it. I just graduated from that school, but I'm taking a gap year to save money for university," he explained.

You guys talked for hours until the workers told you guys they were closing.

You two walked out together and he walked you to your car. You two exchanged numbers and before you opened the door to get into your car, he gave you a kiss on the cheek. "I'll be waiting for a text, y/n! Or should I say Harley Davidson!!" You both laughed and he watched you get into your car and waved as you drove off.

You smiled to yourself as you thought, maybe getting stood up wasn't so bad after all.

The End.
