Caidence's POV:

I am only about fifteen meters away from the shop when I hear approaching footsteps, running footsteps. Of course, me being me, I prepared for the worst. As the stranger approaches I turn around, grabbing his left wrist with my hand and outstretching my right hand to grab his shoulder, pushing him onto the ground. A quiet groan emitted from his mouth before I finally looked down at the boy at my feet.

"Oh my gosh, are you alright Brooklyn?" I say his name with cautiousness, unsure as to whether or not it really is his name.

"Well, minus the thousands of rocks in my back, I think I'm good"  he chuckles, getting up slowly and brushing himself off. 

"Soo... whatcha doing out here? Is Simon telling his crappy jokes again?" I grin

"No, well.. yes. But I wanted to give you this..." He pulls out my phone, smirking slightly "... you left it on the counter"

I take it from him, noting the glint in his eyes.

"What did you do?" I narrow my eyes playfully

"Nothing" he raises his hands in surrender, playing along.

I laugh before thanking him again, placing my phone in my back pocket.

"See you some other time, maybe?" He smiles, rubbing the back of his neck.

I nod "You're always welcome at the shop"

We exchange a quick, awkward hug before parting, Brooklyn walking back to his brothers as I start to walk home.

As I near my street I take out my phone, sure that he did something. I unlock it, cursing myself for not putting a passcode on it. I open up my contact, scrolling down until one catches my eye.

'English Footie Failure' I roll my eyes as the dorky name, going into my messages, seeing that he had texted himself so he would have my number.

"Well played Brooklyn, well played" I mumble
