P E R R I E

I walked into 'Rouge Café' with a smile on my face, adjusting my name tag which was attached to my uniform.

"Perrieee!" I heard a feminine voice call my name. I scooted around, waving madly at Eleanor - my colleague, like we hadn't seen each other in years.

Eleanor had been my best friend ever since I began working here. She practically showed me around and even taught me how to brew coffee (which I still don't know how to do properly)

"Hi El," I grinned, giving her quick hug. "How's work been so far?"

Eleanor shrugged, "Just the usual. It was pretty quiet from around seven 'till now."

I raised an eyebrow. Usually we'd be so crowded people would have to wait outside for their drinks and snacks.

"Anyway," Eleanor put her hand to my shoulder, "How have you been lately?"

Immediately the scenes from my dream replayed in my head and I hadn't noticed that I had dozed off until Eleanor waved a hand in front of my face.

"Eleanor Calder to Perrie Edwards!"

I shook my head, blinking about twice, "Sorry El."

She chuckled in response, "I can tell for one you didn't get any sleep."

No, actually I did. I got plenty of it!

"Actually-" my sentence was interrupted by the sound of the Café door opening.

Eleanor sighed, "I'm so sorry Pezz."

I shook my head and smiled at her, "Let's help this customer first. My talk can wait"

Turned out me and Eleanor didn't get time to speak, since customers just kept rushing in, one after one, dying for a coffee to protect them from the cold weather.

After we had finished serving the very last customer, I grinned, slightly exhausted from all that running around.

"Glad that's over," I said, collapsing onto the closest chair.

Eleanor laughed, "So what did you want to talk to me about?"

I paused. I was planning on telling Eleanor about my dream. To be honest, I wasn't quite sure where this conversation would be leading to, but I was sure that she would understand. Besides, she used to study Phycology in College so she's the closest thing I've got to a physcologist.

"Okay well...um this is kind of weird," I sighed, "Don't laugh at me and just hear me out okay?"

"Go on," Eleanor stared at me eagerly.

"I had a dream last night and it was about this guy that I don't know in real life," I explained. "I mean I've never had a proper conversation in my dream."

Eleanor gave me a puzzled look "Okayyyy? Um Perrie, are you alright? You seem kind of pale."

Seriously Eleanor?!

I frowned at her. "El, do you think I'm mental?"

Eleanor shook her head and rubbed my shoulder reassuringly, "No of course not. You might just be assuming things or you might just be a bit poorly."

"I think it's because of the bad migraine I had this morning," I said, rubbing my forehead and staring at the chocolate muffin and the Coffee Eleanor had prepared for me.
