Relocating

I walked back into the coffee shop, happy we got to talk. He gave me a peck on the lips before turning to get his car. Eliza was grinning at me. I could tell the teasing was about to begin. Fantastic.

"Where are you coming from?" She asks.

"You already know." I say and smile.

"How was it?"

"Lunch? Amazing. And I think we kind of figured out where we are."

"And that is?"

"Together. Together, but not sure what's going to happen next."

"Is that a good thing?"

"I hope so."

"Alright, so what's the plan tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow?"

"Friday?"

"Oh! I have a band coming. They're named Phox."

"Where are they from?"

"Seattle."

"Holy shit! Is everyone from Seattle these days?" She asks and I laugh.

"Apparently all the good musicians are."

"You guys got that right." Dan says and pulls a chair up to the counter.

"How's office life?" I ask.

"Fantastic and exciting." He says sarcastically.

"Awesome!" I say.

"What's with her?" Dan says and chuckles.

"She had a date with Ashton." Eliza answers.

"Good. I like the kid." Dan says.

"Good to know." I say.

"Alright, so Phox is coming tomorrow! Are you guys excited?" He asks, wanting us to cheer. We do.

"Yeah!" Eliza and I in unison.

"Great. Now get back to work." He says and pushes the chair into the table. He goes back to his office. Eliza and I work on cleaning the counter. It was a nice slow day.
