chapter 2 /n

As I unlock the door to the Cafe I feel a bit distracted thinking of Cyrus wondering if I'll ever see him again. I shrug off these thoughts as a turn on the lights and start getting the cafe ready for the day. I turn on the music putting on my personal favorite list we have for the shop it's a romance list call me a hopeless romantic but this list always scratches the itch in my mind I start to recognize the song playing as secret love song by little mix and Jason Derulo.

The Cafe has been open for about 3 hours everyone is happily working well as happy as you can be in costumer service. I hear what sounds like eather a car with cherry bombs or a motorcycle pull up a few moments later I see a motorcycle driver walk in ..... I recognize that jacket it's Cyrus I never thought I would see him again as he walks up to my register I look at his face finaly being able to see it he has a small scar that goes across his nose his curly hair slightly flattened from his helmet almost covers his first green eyes in total he looks like someone Leonardo DaVinci painted. He begins to talk snaping me out of my trance "Oh hey it's you" he says. I give a small chuckle "yea good to see you to Cyrus. Now what can I get started for you" he places an order and pays a minute or two later I'm handing him his coffee "thank you y/n.... oh well I have you here can I get your number you seem like a good person and I-" I cut off his rant by handing him a paper with my number on it "see you around Cyrus" I get back to work as he leaves I think I see a small smile Crack his face but I can't tell.

It's 7 pm now and I'm closeing the shop as I do this I make sure everything is set for tomorrow and lock the door behind me on my way out. As I make the short walk to my old Toyota t100 I stay on alert never to sure what can happen to a girl, once I get to my truck I hop in starting her up. I get home after about a 20 minute drive as I get home I receive a text from my friend Angel asking if I wanted to go out to the bar I text back reluctantly agreeing to go. After I text her she texts back saying she will be here in 10 minutes so that gives me a bit of time to get dressed I go and do so grabbing my button up crop top and high-waisted jeans and changing into them I look in the mirror and decide I need to fix up my makeup a bit as I do that I hear the door open and Angel calls out with her normal tone "Don't fall asleep" calling out one of her favorite movies a nightmare on elm Street. "I'm in here" I call back she walks into the room I'm in fixing my makeup in I give her a glance she's in black jeans with a spike belt and her favorite car shirt I give a small laugh she never did care about impressing guys. I finally finished my makeup and grab my bag so we can leave.

We are about an hour in to drinking I've had one drink mean while Angel has had about 8 drinks and some shots and she is thoroughly drunk and danceing. I keep an eye on her so that she doesn't have some unwanted attention or doesn't try to climb a pool table again. I see a large group of men and women walk in they are dressed what I assume a mafia would dress like. I go over to Angel telling her we should leave she agreed and we head out to her 69 chevy Malibu I hop in the driver's seat forgetting its a manual and not auto I grab her keys and start the car struggling to drive for a bit then adjusting to it. After some time we get to my house I turn off her car locking it once we both get out. I help her into my house and to the spare room laying her down and getting her set up for the morning before walking back to the front door locking it and getting ready for myself.

The next morning I wake up and get into my work uniform grabbing a breakfast bar and writing a note for Angel when she's awake. After a few minutes I leave hoping in my truck and starting it up waiting for a bit so it can warm up before heading to work to start the work day just like before.

For those looking for an idea of what angel looks like please look at the image at the top of the chapter she is a mechanic that loves old cars and y/ns best friend
