One direction coffee shop

Chapter One (slightly)

Clara walked into the coffee shop the day before her term at Uni started, just because it looked interesting and was a new place close to the apartment. The sign said "One Direction". Her best friends trailed behind her. 

"C'mon, Clara! It's about time you got a boyfriend." Vera claimed, her black hair whipping across her face as she turned toward the blonde. 

"Says the single, yet ever wise, Vera." Clara sarcastically responded. 

"We're all single. We'll live through our first year. Can we just get coffee now?" Joanna asked, who lived off of caffeine. 

Clara turned toward the guy working the counter. She was struck by the most handsome boy she'd ever seen. His name tag said "Harry". She was going to play it cool. 

"Hi, Harry." She smiled. He looked up. "How d'you know my name?" He asked. 

"Name tag, genius." Clara could hear her friends trying not to giggle. 

He looked down at his black shirt. "Oh. Well, then, blondie. What can I get you?" He smiled and Clara's world seemed to stop for a moment. 

"It's Clara, actually. I'll have a Caramel Macchiato." 

"So, I should make it a CLARAmel Macchiato?" He cheekily added. 

"Oh, that's good one. How come I've never thought of that?" Clara said, a thoughtful look on her face, finger pulling on her bottom lip. 

Four other boys suddenly walked out of the back room. 

"Harry! We need your expertise!" 'Louis' said. Clara distinctly heard Bianca take in a sharp breath. 

"We can't put together our new java machine." 'Liam' apologized to us. 

"Harry is good with machines." 'Niall' explained. 'They're over doing this apology thing.' Clara thought. 

Looking behind her, Clara could see each of her friends looking at a different guy. 

Joanna was staring at Liam. 

Bianca and Louis. 

Vera and Niall. 

Chrissy and Zayn. 

Herself and Harry. 

Oddly enough, it worked vice versa too. 

"Sorry about them, Liam, help these ladies out since you guys have no idea what your doing." Harry disappeared into the back room, but not before winking at Clara. 

"See you around, blondie." Clara probably blushed, she wasn't sure. 

"You sure will, Curly." She called back at him. 

"So, he's rung up a caramel macchiato. What else?" Liam started. 

"French Vanilla- iced if you please." Joanna responded. 

"What is the Irish Frappe? Shamrock flavoured?" Vera turned to Niall, who was obviously Irish by the way he had spoken earlier. 

"No, it's Leprechaun!" Both of them laughed. "But really, it's mint chocolate chip." Niall whispered. 

"Irish Frappe for me!" Vera exclaimed. 

"I'll have a dark roast." Bianca told to Louis, who nodded and gave her a "Superman is on it!" And no one but the boys seem to get the joke. 

"I'm not really into coffee." Chrissy muttered. 

"Me neither." Zayn told her. Chrissy looked at him a moment.
