It was borderline painful. Almost every day, the two guys would come in after the gym. Saffron would make small talk, and just seeing them made her day less dull.

She learnt that he was from California, but grew up in Virginia then moved to North Carolina a couple years ago. Similar to her, his parents were divorced. He also liked playing bedwars in minecraft.

Saffron still didn't know his name, but it was either Grayson or Tyler, one was his name and the was his friends.

Saffron thought he fit Tyler better, but wasn't too sure as both names were pretty basic.

She'd always make an effort to be the one to pass his box over, putting her hands far enough down it so that their fingertips could brush over each other. Every time, without fail, her stomach would flip.

Though today she wouldn't be able to see them as it was her day off. She was sat at her table eating her lunch whist attempting to get on with her school work, when Kai sends her a snap.

She clicks on the notification to open it. Immediately she is met with a photo of Kai with the two guys from Chipotle, there was text across it that said our favourite customers came in.

Saffron let's out a high pitched giggle, then she spots Keira coming out of the kitchen. "Keira, look"

Keira crosses the room, and sits beside Saffron on the couch. She looks over at what Saffron was showing her and her eyes widen.

"Hey, he does look familiar" she exclaims.

Saffron saves the snap in chat. "Which one"

"The blonde. I swear I've seen him somewhere" she says, then her face lights up. "Wait"

Saffron's face scrunches up in confusion, if he was a customer, he must have been pretty significant for Keira to remember him.

Almost immediately, Keira trades her coffee for her phone and types something into Google. "There he is. I knew I'd seen him in a recent Tommyinnit video"

She twists her phone around to show Saffron the Google search. The screen displayed a picture of the blonde Chipotle guy, he looked younger and had a different haircut, but there was no denying it was him.

"Purpled" Saffron reads. "Wasn't he on the Dream SMP"

"Yeah. That's probably where you recognised him" Keira explains, bringing her phone back to her.

Saffron gets her phone and searches up purpled herself, she goes onto the Instagram account that appears first. "Maybe his friend will be on here"

She was very quickly proven correct. A few pictures back on Purpled's grid was a photo of his friend. It was from over a year ago but it was still clear enough to see that it was him.

Saffron goes to the tags, and the only one to appear was an account with the name Wallibeartv. Saffron still recognised him, despite the fact he hadn't posted in ages.

Keira peers over Saffron's shoulder. "Hear me out"

"Loud and clear" Saffron responds.

"So you do think he's hot" Keira smirks.

"I think" Saffron looks back down at his Instagram, then her face distorts into panic. "What do I do"

"Just write your number or your snap somewhere" Keira suggests. "If he's interested he'll text you"

"What if he isn't. Won't that just be awkward for him to keep coming in"

"Just hide in the back" Keira answers. "Remember. We always used to do that"

Saffron smiles at the memories, but it was short lived. She did really like talking with them, and what she'd said to Kai about enjoying having nice customers was true.

"You know we can't do that anymore"

Keira gives in. "You do what you want, Saff. But you know what I would do"

Saffron purses her lips. "Yeah but I'm not you"

"Be glad" Keira deadpans

Saffron rolls her eyes. "I'll watch some of his videos and then I'll make a decision"

"Right. Fair enough"

Saffron spent the rest of the day watching Wallibear videos and she was weirdly entertained, even though she was pretty sure they were made for kids. She also stalked his social media, trying to make fully sure that he was single.

She was also greatful to find out that he was 24- not a minor.
