Their hands were still linked together as they made their way to the café Anna was waiting in, only letting go when they got out of the car. Calum looked to Leia nervously before he pushed the door open. A small ding resonated in the nearly-empty café, the only occupant being a tall, blonde girl with a severe bob cut seated in the far right side of the room with a latte in her hands.
"Anna!" Leia immediately called out.
The woman looked up to see Leia coming towards her– and her face literally lit up. A genuine twinkle shone from her eyes as she stood up to embrace her sister lovingly. "Oh, Leia, it's good to see you again."
Calum watched them, feeling his heart swell up and sink at the same time. He loved that Leia was so happy seeing her sister, but at the same time he was scared of Anna. He didn't want to interrupt them so he stayed silent until Leia broke away and grabbed Calum by the shirt. "Anna, this is Calum. Calum, you know Anna," Leia said, smirking a little.
Nervousness creeped back in his system. "Hi, it's nice to finally meet you," he said, offering a small smile.
"So this is the famous Calum," Anna said with a grin. She looked him up and down, scrutinizing him.
"Okay, that's enough you two." Leia pulled Calum down and sat on one side of the small booth while Anna sat across them. She was beaming at both of them, happiness welling in her chest.
A waitress came over to hand them menus and glasses of water, which Calum took gratefully. There was an awkward silence that followed after but Anna broke the ice when she said, "So I heard you catfished my sister."
Calum choked on his water.
"Anna!" Leia chastised, patting Calum's back.
Anna threw her head back and laughed. She's so wild, Calum thought. "He didn't catfish me," Leia told her, rolling her eyes. "I thought I was texting you. Turned out I was texting Calum. We kinda met. End of story."
"Hm." Anna turned to Calum, tapping her fingers on the table. "Why didn't you tell her she had the wrong number?"
"Because..." He swallowed down, unable to think of the right words to say. "It's weird, but... I liked knowing about her, about her day." He paused to glance at his girlfriend, who was looking down, playing with their entwined fingers. "Until I realized, I liked Leia." On cue she looked up and met Calum's eyes, and they smiled sheepishly at each other.
"Huh," was all Anna said. She turned to her sister again. "You don't find that creepy or anything?"
Leia chuckled despite Calum's sudden rigidness. "It was a little, I guess."
"Sorry," Calum mumbled miserably.
"But I met you because of it," she added hurriedly, looking at Calum. "And I fell in love. So I don't find it crazy anymore." She paused and smiled at Calum warmly. "You are the most wonderful thing that's ever happened to me."
He was pretty sure he was openly blushing, and he was just about to lean in and kiss her but he remembered Anna was sitting in front of them. They broke away from each other, slightly embarrassed. But that was only the start of their afternoon with Leia's estranged sister.
Calum couldn't help but enjoy how happy Leia was with them, watching her laugh and smile more in an afternoon than the whole time he'd known her. He figured out Anna was different from Leia, more outspoken and loud, with a drier sense of humor. She kind of reminder him of Michael sometimes, which was weird. She was fun to talk to, and that made Calum a little less nervous. It helped that they only skirted around fluff topics, like Pokémon and coffee.
