WORK || TOM KAULITZ

I tried looking around for whoever. Then I saw him. It was the guy from earlier. Why the fuck was he staring at me like that ? Without even realising it I was staring back. He smiled at me. I went back to reality. I smiled back at him, he seemed nice. He got up from the table he was at and started to walk towards me.

"Hey" "Hi" well that is awkward. "I just came by to tell you that your singing is just very good I was amazed" he started to talk with an accent. I didn't catch that earlier he barely said anything, not even his name. "Thank you so much" I said smiling at him. He had a very unique style. Black long hair and a heavy black eye makeup. Then some guy came from behind him. "Bill, können wir jetzt gehen ?" said the guy looking straight at me "Ja" the guy answered "well better go bye" "bye" I said confused.

Rest of the night went on and then I went home.

Next day

I woke up and did my usual routine. I got to work, this time on time."hey" I say as I walk through the door. "Mhm" Sharon replies not looking at me. It's Wednesday which means Sharon takes orders. I see her talking to some guy then turning to me all smiley. I don't say anything it's not like we are friends and are going to gossip about this together. She hands me the paper "Black coffee". So I do as am told, there's no name on the paper so I don't write anything, I really don't feel like talking to her plus it would be her fault. I turn around to hand her the coffee, she is at the counter talking. Whatever. I walk up to the costumer myself. It's him. The german guy from yesterday, not the one with the makeup the other one. I hand him the coffee, he's looking right at me, his eyes are quite literally burning through me. "Here you go, have a nice day" I say turning away. "What about the name" he says, i can feel him smirking. Of fucking course. I turn "Yes, sorry" I say giving him the most fake smile I could."so what will be the name?" I ask taking the cup from his hand."Nick" he replies simply. "Alright" I say writing the name. "There you go have a nice day" I say handing him the order. "Bye" "Ela"
He says looking from my name tag. I love New York I really do but then I meet these type of people and I questions my decisions. I turn to Sharon, she's looking at him as he walks out. Woah she falls in love quicker then my parents for drugs.

This Nick guy has been coming here since Tuesday for the past 2 weeks. Always getting the same "Black coffee" with the occasional "Latte" However I haven't seen his friend since the pub performance.

Nick always just comes in, flirts with Sharon if she's here, looks me into my soul and leaves. I don't even remember our costumers but the way he looks at me is as if I murdered his whole family.

Today he didn't show up. I mean I don't care but where is he? Will he come tomorrow?

"Earth to Ela" Michael yells out. "Yes Earth" I say not even listening to him."Look I just need you to take this last order then you can go" he says handing me the paper "Black coffee" I do the coffee quicker than I probably should have, walking past him and I go straight to the costumer.

The guy. "Oh hi it's you"
"Yeah it is" I say smiling at him. I hand him the coffee taking the money. "It was nice to see you again" "bye" "bye, Have a nice day" I turn around to see Michael looking weirdly at me."What" "Nothing"
"Well can I go now?" I ask. "Yeah" " Thank you" I say putting my apron off and basically running out. I'm on the street and I see nobody else than Nick with the his friend. I'm running fucking late so I just ran past them giving the guy a smile.

Tom's pov

I see her running out of the shop smiling at Bill. Why not at me ? Rude. "She's singing tonight" says Bill. "I know" I say looking at Bill. He looks confused. "What" "Nothing" he says back "well can we go now?" "Yeah"

I don't know what's wrong with me but I don't even like coffee and for the past few weeks I have been getting it just so I can see her. But then there's that Shannon girl who always flirts with me. I go along, I can't be too obvious. But whenever I see her I just can't look away. She reminds me of something, of someone.

Bill's pov

We go to the pub again. I don't even like this pub but Ela sings here so we had to be here. Honestly I'm starting to get the feeling that we might look like some stalkers to her. But I just can't help it because of Tom. The first time he saw her was in this pub, he didn't say anything to her but once we left he asked like a million questions about her. "Who was that" " she looked familiar" " what's her name" " how do you know her" " what did you talk about"...etc.
He has never cared about anyone like that and the way he looked at her I knew there was something.
