I look around the bookshop, picking up a random book here and there.
There sure are a lot of them. Piles everywhere of books. Are bookshops usually this cramped?I mean, probably. I don't know shit about books.
"Here you go.", Azirphale says as he hands over a cup of hot chocolate.
"Thanks.", I say as I sit on one of his chairs with my legs crossed.
I take a sip of the chocolate, and it's heavenly, so sweet and soft.
Drinking it almost made me want to cry. I haven't felt such a delicious warm drink ever."My pleasure. While you're here, we should get acquainted. What's your name?"
I shrug, "You can call me whatever you want. Most people do."
"Well, that must get bothersome. I much rather you choose a name for yourself."
"I'm good. Being a nameless person is more my style. How about you? Are you the Fell or the Co?" I point at the name of his shop.
I chuckle at my own joke.
'A.Z Fell and Co.' If I knew about bookshops, I'd say that's a weird name. But I don't.
He laughs with me, "Oh, yes, well, you can call me Aziraphale."
"Wait, so is your name Azira Fell or Aziraphale Fell?" I frown as I tilt my head.
"Oh, um." He looks surprised at my question. "Whichever one you prefer." He smiles at me.
I laugh, "Okay, Mr. Aziraphale Fell." I chug down the rest of the chocolate. "Wow, that was a damn good hot chocolate." I lick away the residue from my lips.
"I'm glad you liked it." He smiled as he grabbed the cup and took it away.
I stretch in the chair. I'm all warm and cozy. Bookshops seem so homey. Why aren't more people in them?
"Is there anyone we can call to help you?"
"Honestly, no." I lay my head on the chair. "I don't have anyone. I'm all alone." A tear falls from my eye.
"Como dijo.", I mumble to myself.
"Well, I have plenty of room upstairs. You could always stay-" Aziraphale walks back and sees they have fallen asleep in their chair.
Aziraphale smiles as he covers them with a blanket.
He couldn't wait to tell Crowley about this.
