Chapter 5."Hot beverages and warm smiles"

The night ended. You scooped up everything that had been previously laid out on the table and, stumbling, ran towards the stairs.You didn't care where anyone else was.When you reached the stairs, you quickly ran down to the main hall.None of the guys were in sight.You found yourself scared of every single sound. The only thing that was left was to grab your backpack.You tip-toed past the stage,afraid that the robots might still be activated.That feeling of total insecurity got to you again ,making you run to the lockers for your life.Hands sweating and shaking,you tried to unlock your one but as luck would have it, you dropped the key. You tried to compose yourself,covering your face with the palms of your hands and counting to ten,breathing in and out methodically.
-9...10...-You took your hands away from the face and tried to shake them a little to relieve some of the tension inside.Sighing out,you got to your knees,trying to reach for the key under the locker.But someone's heavy hand landed next to yours.It was Fritz.
-Are you alright?You seem a little shaken up.-His voice was full of genuine worry.
You looked at him with your eyes wet.
-No,I'm not alright...I just..I don't know...That wasn't what I expected from the first day here.It's weird!-A lump stuck in your throat.-Please tell me that I'm not going to be alone next time...?-You looked at Fritz with eyes full of hope.
He smiled and took off your hat,ruffling your hair with his fingers.
-No,you're officially going to work with us starting tonight.-He laughed.-Don't be scared.With us by your side you'll be A-OK!-He put both thumbs up. You sniffled, wiping your eyes with the back of your hand.
-Sorry,I'm probably overreacting ...-You squeezed out a small smile.Fritz got your key from underneath the lockers and placed it in your palm.-Thank you...Can I... hug you? I know this is probably really weird but I cou-
You didn't get to finish your sentence as Fritz pulled you into a bear-like warm embrace of his.A warm fuzzy feeling ran through your body and you placed your head on his shoulder.
-It's okay,don't worry...I can relate to your feelings...-He said,gently rubbing your back.-It's going to be okay.I promise you...-You smiled into his shoulder,wrapping your arms around the man's back.He was soft and warm.Like a big pillow or a cloud.Fritz was definitely more of non-intimidating type of guys.You stood there for a while just embracing each other.Fritz spoke first.-Feelin' better?
-Mhm!-You nodded,pulling away ever so slightly.-Thank you...I needed that...Hope it didn't make you uncomfortable?-Your cheeks grew a light shade of pink.-I mean,you basically hugged a total stranger now...
-You are not a stranger!I know your name,know that you love cats and coffee...-he chuckled.-There is always more to know,especially now that we work together here we will be obliged to spend most of our time together.Well,not like "together-together", but with others too.Hey!At least you didn't run away!-He let go of you.-How about getting a cup of something warm,hm?If it's okay with you,of course.
You nodded in agreement, smiling at ginger-haired man.
-Fritz?
-Hm?
-I need to change...
-Oh,uh...Okay...See you downstairs!-The man smiled brightly,leaving you alone.
You opened your locker,getting your backpack out.You decided not to make the same mistakes again and went to check the restrooms.The one for the "staff" was open.You went inside and locked the door behind you.You took off that uncomfortable shirt and looked at yourself in the mirror.Your hands were covered in scars from wrist up.The not so nice memories came flooding back but you didn't let it take over.Not today.You pulled on your warm hoodie ,snuggling inside of it.Better, much better.
When you got to the first floor Fritz was already waiting for you at the entrance.You walked up to him ,smiling.
-Sorry for taking so long.Hope you still want to hang out,heh...-You awkwardly scratched the back of your head.
-It's fine,I myself just finished up some things with the others.-He fixed his glasses.-Hey,Chris and Jeremy are coming with us, is that alright?
-I mean,why wouldn't it be?The more people the better,am I right?-You nudged him a little,smiling ear to ear.
Fritz looked you up and down with concern.
-Aren't you going to be cold?It's below -10'C outside.
-Nah,I'm going to be fine.I don't really mind the cold.Oh!I-uh,I wanted to thank you for the treats you gave me earlier!They really helped me to get through the night!
-You're welcome.-Fritz slightly blushed.
You heard Jeremy and Chris closing in.As soon as the blonde man noticed you he ran up to you.
-Y/N!Are you alright?Nothing hurts?All limbs attached?-He took your hands in his.
-I'm fine,Chris.Thank you for asking.-You chuckled at his expression.-You are going to break my hands if you keep that grip.
-Sorry!-He immediately let go of you.
-It's fine,don't worry about it~
-Guys, I am literally standing right here.-Fritz said,sarcastically rolling his eyes.
You looked at the boy next to Chris.Jeremy was looking like he felt out of place.You smiled at him,holding your hand out.
-Nice to meet you,Jeremy!-He took your hand and shook it lightly.
-Nice to meet you too,Y/N.-The boy smiled shyly.
-So,uhhh...Let's get going then?
-Yeah.
-Sure!
-Let's go!
All four of you left the pizzeria and discussed where you could grab something for early breakfast.You knew exactly where to go. "Jeffree's" was your secret guilty pleasure in high school.They made absolutely mesmerizing waffles and lemon pastry.Even though you hated sweets you had a soft spot for that place.
At about 7:20AM you got to the place.The café was still the same:light vanilla-crème coloured walls,soft yellow lights hanging from the ceiling, a bunch of green plants and decorative ceramics scattered throughout the place.You chose a table near the window from where you could see the nearby park.A young man walked up to the table,holdind a little notepad and a pen.
-Good morning!We are glad to welcome you to "Jeffree's":what would you like to order?
-What are the best-selling drinks?Like coffee,tea...Hot choco?
-Oh!As you are aware it is Valentines season so the best selling drinks are "Heart Shaker", "Cupid's arrow" and "Love on top".We can also recommend Ginger-bread Latte with cinnamon based on soy milk,pepper-mint mocha ,Cheese latte and Cherry-bomb mamba!
-Can you give us a few minutes?-you smiled.
-Sure thing,sweet thing!Take your time!-The man winked at you which send shivers down your spine, the discomfort made you squirm in your seat.The man walked away to the other costumers.You grabbed the menu in front of you,just like the other guys.Jeremy felt the shift in your behavior and moved closer to you.
-Is everything okay?-The boy asked when noticed your hands start to shake yet again.
-Y-Yeah,I'm fine.It's just that the waiter gives me the creeps.-You smiled nervously.-But it's fine!Really...
-If you say so...-He shrugged his shoulders looking into the menu.
A few minutes passed and the waiter returned.
-Ready to order,sweet thing~?
-Uh,yeah,can I get a pepper-mint mocha grande and a Belgium waffles with extra strawberries?
-Sure!-he quickly took a note.-Anything for the young men?
-Four "Heart Shaker"s grande,two portions of fluffy pancakes with extra butter on top and a sunny-side up double with cheese,ham,tomatoes and bacon.Thanks!-Fritz announced the order.
-Everything will be out in a moment!-The man concluded and retreated in the direction of the kitchen.
-Fritz,you didn't have to...-Chris said,but was immediately cut off by Fritz.
-Don't wanna hear it!I suggested going out for a breakfast ,I am buying!Period! -He smiled ear to ear.
While waiting for your food to be out you talked about everything and nothing at the same time. You learned that Jeremy LOVES anime and is a huge fan of Sailor Moon.He is 3 years younger than you are which makes him 19 years old.He lives with his father but prefers not to talk about it for obvious reasons. Chris is 26,single,loves rock,especially the classics like Queen and Metallica, he lives alone in a single room apartment.Fritz is 25,lives alone near the pizzeria in the apartment complex,LOVES cooking and dreams about opening his own bakery when in his 60-s.You told them a little more about yourself.You laughed and joked until all the orders were placed on the table.Jeremy got his fluffy pancakes and looked as happy as a child would be.Chris immediately started devouring his sunny-side-ups.Fritz savored every bite of his pancakes,while you picked at the waffles.You truly enjoyed the moments with the guys around you.But you got pulled out of your thoughts by the waiter clearing his throat.
-M'lady,this is for you.-He placed an expensive box of chocolate on the table.-On the house!-The man quickly went away.
-Wow,that guy is really hitting on you,huh?-Chris smirked.
-Jealous?-You asked,taking a sip of a hot coffee.
-A little~-Chris looked satisfied.Maybe it was the food that brought his playfulness back or he was just enjoying the show. You all laughed at what was happening.-Why aren't you eating tho?
-Oh, I'm just savoring the moment.-You smiled.
-Our day shift starts at 2PM.Any plans till then?-Asked Fritz.
-The only plan I have is a date with a hot bath.-You chuckled.-But,on a serious note,no,no plans in particular.
-Maybe we can all go to my place then?I mean the rest of the guys too.We can play video or board games,watch a movie or I don't know...Something else?-Fritz made a suggestion.
-It's a good idea but I'll pass on this one.I can really use some sleep.Maybe on the weekend?What about Saturday ?-You felt bad for denying the invitation even though there was nothing to feel bad about.
-Sounds good to me.Guys?-Fritz turned to Chris and Jeremy.
-I'm in!-Chris declaired.-Jere?
-I don't have anything better to do anyway,hah.I'm in!-All four of you did a group fist bump.
You all finished your breakfast reluctantly letting Fritz pay.Seeing him pay a total of 30$ while you make 25$ a night made your heart ache.But he looked so happy.You got your "Heart Shaker"s on the way out.Fritz and Jeremy lived in an opposite direction from you and Chris so the two of you said goodbye for now to them and headed into the direction of your homes.
You didn't hurry because there was no need to.Both you and Chris were talking about life struggles and your ups and downs occasionally inserting some jokes into the dialog.But,you too had to say goodbye for now to each other and head to your places.You hugged Chris in a friendly manner and went inside.Once at home,you immediately took off you clothes and headed straight to the bathroom.A short but hot shower relaxed you a little more.You really didn't have the energy to do anything else as the adrenalin in your blood completely evaporated.You changed into your home t-shirt and some shorts and as soon as you landed on your bed you dazed off into a sweet land of dreams.
