It was the 4th of July.
All my friends were out throwing a party and doing who knows what.
While I was stuck working the cashier at Walgreens.
Since I was 17 years old, I needed some type of job and this is all I got.
I don't get why I have to work today. Almost everyone else got the day off.
I plopped into a chair, looking around the empty store.
I looked at my phone clock. It was only 8:30, I have to close the store at 10:00
I groaned. This is just great.
Suddenly my phone buzzed and I picked up.
Techically, I wasn't supposed to have my phone out at work.
But it's not like there was anyone here to help...
I read the text from my lockscreen.
It was my boyfriend, Lucas.
Lucas; Heyy are you off work yet?
Maya: I told you, I don't get off until 10.
Lucas: aww but baby you are missing the fireworks.
Fireworks have always been my favorite part of the 4th of July.
It's been something I've been doing since I was younger.
Maya: oh, you can show me a picture I guess.
Lucas: nah, it's nice and all but it's not as pretty as the view I saw yesterday.
Maya: what do u mean?
Lucas; I saw you yesterday, didn't i?
I felt myself start to blush as I texted back.
Maya: lucassss really that's so cheesy
Lucas: 😘
Maya: I'll come over at 10, okay?
Lucas: okay beautiful.
I put my phone down to see a customer walking in.
Finally, something I can actually do on this holiday, work.
But, at least I still get to see Lucas after all this.

This is so short but I think it's really cute.
Lol the ending is so lame I didn't know what to write I'm sorry
We all needed some lucaya today.
Happy late 4th of July my fellow Americans!
My next oneshot is a super long one, so be prepared.
