Pov Y/n

The next morning had begun just like the one before. Again I'm going to my favorite Café to get my go-to drink and cookie as always.
I leave my house, looking at the beautiful red sun rising next to the sea a few meters away from the park. As yesterday I decide to take the walk through the park to enjoy the sun and the fresh air there. I can hear the birds singing beautifully until a screaming kid crashes the atomsphere. Ugh! Nothing can describe how much I hate kids. They always scream.
Since this morning had just started I tell myself to not let these kids destroy it so I put on my smile and walk to the cafe.
It's Friday morning where many people get their drinks and snacks for work so it's quite full inside.
I search up a place in the waiting queue.
When it's my turn to give up my order I say my standard sentence: "One medium Iced latte with vanilla heavy cream and sprinkles and one chocolate chip cookie, please.".
"Alright here you go" ,says the waitress giving me my stuff, " that makes 6.75$.".
I hand over 10$. "Keep the rest for you", I say smiling friendly at her.
"Thank you! Have a nice day!". "You too!".
I'm about to go out as I don't watch out for a second and bump into a stranger. My feets slip away under me and I already close my eyes to prepare myself hitting the floor. But before I'm able to completely fall someone puts their hands on my waist and catches me. They pull me up. Now I stand there still having my eyes closed because I definitely didn't really realize what actually happend. "You can open your eyes you're safe", says a friendly voice sounding like a woman. I slowly open my eyes. And yes, in front of me is a woman. Red hair, rosy cheeks, trained body and the most wonderful emerald eyes I've ever see. Our eyes meet and we stand there in silence.
After a few minutes I'm able to catch myself again. "Uh I'm so s-sorry I didn't see you", I stutter.
"No please don't apologize I neither watched out. Oh no and I'm sorry your coffe!".
Only now I realized that my coffe also had been fallen and is now spilled everywhere.
"I'm so sorry. I'll buy you another one!", she continues apologizing. I put my hand on her shoulder. I feel that she winces so I quickly take my hand back. "Don't worry I could've also watched out. You don't have to buy me a new one I can buy it myself.".
"No please let me buy you one it was my fault.". I really don't know how to make her not to buy me one. "Is there a way I can make you not to do it?",I ask her laughing a bit. She also starts laughing, "No you can't.". "Well I guess then thank you really much!". "How about you search a place to sit and I get the drinks?", she asks. "Yeah sure!".
I take a seat at my favorite place next to the window with the view over the sea. Here I always watch the sunrise.

A few minutes later the woman comes to my seat and gives me my drink. "Here an iced latte with vanilla heavy cream.and sprinkles in size medium and I got you a chocolate chip cookie as well.". She smiles.
I look shocked. "Wait what? First of all thank you I really appreciate it and also for the extra cookie but how did you know that I always take that? Like I literally gave up this order today and also the last millions of days. How did you know?".
She laughs. "Well, I was in the queue a few people behind you and I heard what you said the last 6 days I went to this cafe. And you know, my mind is really good.". I see a small smirk appearing on her lips.
"Wow I've never seen you actually. But you've impressed me I was literally shocked.".

We both talk and laugh a lot for the next few hours. I found out her name is Natasha and she lives also here in New York. We also found out that we have some similarities. We both like dancing, we both have problems with our parents and we both love coffe. She likes dark coffe and I like my standard latte.

"Oh it's already midday. My best friend used to come in 10 minutes. We have an appointment to have lunch here but if you want to you can join us. I'm sure he's ok with that.".
"Uh if you're ok with it I'd love to you seem really kind and cool to be honest.",I reply. "You seem so too.".

10 minutes later Natasha stands up and waves to the door. I don't really know who will come but I guess it'll be a surprise for me. I stand up too and watch her hugging a blonde man. He's tall and muscular. "Steve that's Y/n, Y/n that's Steve my best friend.". "Hi!", he says holding his hand in front of me. "Hi!", I also say shaking his hand friendly.
"Nat you've never told me you know a new girl", Steve says to Natasha. "I didn't know her until some hours ago. Let's say we met in an accident.". She looks at me. Steve looks confused back and forth between us. "Alright... so wanna eat something now? I'm starving". "Yes! Me too", the red head and I say at the same time.
