A few days later...
"I'll have the strawberry," the nice lady smiles and turns to Leyla.
"Um, banana please," she says shyly. The lady nods and walks in back. Leyla and I find a seat closest to the counter.
"So you guys are really dating?" Leyla asks shocked.
"Yeah, I thought it would never happen but we are!" I say excitedly.
Ding! Ding!
We turn to see the kind lady with her hand on the bell and I smoothies next to it.
"I'll get it," I say as I stand up and walk over there. Leyla glances at me for a moment but turns away when Matt walks in.
I smile at him and turn around to grab the smoothies. Suddenly my arm has a hand gripped on it and I pulled into a corner. I panicked at first but steadied my breathing. I hear a loud chuckle.
"Hey, Mabes." I look up into dark green eyes. Chris. My best friend from high school. I haven't seen him since freshman year. We've known each other since I was 6 years old. We drifted apart over the years.
"What are you doing here?!" I ask frantically.
"Well I've been in the city and I thought I'd get a smoothie. Then I saw y-"
Dun Dee Dum Da!
My phone is ringing -_-
I fish my phone out of my back pocket and look at it. Miles is calling. Great. Perfect timing. I slide my finger across the screen.
"Hey, you doing anything? I'm bored." Oh miles.
"Yeah, I'm at Sammy Smoothie with Leyla," I reply.
"Kay, I'm meeting you there." I end the call and roll my eyes. Hopefully Chris and Miles get along. Chris looks at me in concern.
"Who was that?"
"Oh its just a friend, he's coming here to meet up with me." I reply reassuringly.
"Oh, okay cool," he says with his hands in his pockets.
"Here, let me introduce you to my other friends." I lead him over to our table as I grab the smoothies.
"You guys, this is Chris. Chris this is Leyla," Leyla waves kindly, "and this is her boyfriend Matt." Matt mimicks Leyla.
"Nice to meet you guys," Chris smiles kindly and takes a seat. I sit in between him and Leyla.
I look over and see a not so happy looking Miles. He sits down awkwardly next to Matt. He turned to smile but kept a straight face noticing Chris was staring at him. He greeted everyone.
After a few minutes of talking, Miles stands up.
"I'll be right back." He heads off towards the bathroom. Chris then stands up and walks over to him. They begin talking but I can't make out what they're saying. I can't lip read.
While Chris us talking Miles turns and punches him right in the nose. Miles is in for a stern talk.
Chris holds his bloody nose and everyone turns and gasps. A lady walks over to Miles shyly. She talks to him and points to the door.
Miles nods and walks out. I go to the counter and grab napkins for Chris' nose. I hand them to Chris and go outside to meet with Miles.
"What the hell was that about?!" I scold him.
"Nothing," he says coldly.
"Nothing? Really?! That's your answer?!" I scold.
"Look, I-" I began.
