Phil's POV:

///

It was my first day, and I think I might be in love????

Not with a fellow employee.

But just one customer who came into the store. He's so pretty, and so similar to me. He seems relatively as tall as me, he has the same kind of hair, and he has the prettiest smile in the world. He seemed pretty nervous, which I thought was really cute. I really wanted to hit on him, but I didn't want him to be grossed out, in case he's a raging homophobe.

 I handed him his drink, a regular Cappuccino and I watched him sit down and drink. My boss told me I'm on break, I get a break from 3:30-4:00 pm every day, in case I want to eat something and what not. So I went over and sat down with him, heart beating really fast. I approach the booth where he sits, and talk.

"Um, hey..." I say. God, I hope I don't embarrass myself.

"Hi!" he says, as his seemingly excited, soft, sweet voice absorbed into my ears. 

"So um, I'm on break and uh...y-you seem like a pretty cool guy. You got a phone number?" My heart races, almost beating out of my chest.

"Yeah man, here you go." He takes out a piece of paper from his backpack and writes it down, then tears off the part of paper that has his number on it and hands it to me. I do the same with my number, then hand it to him.

"Text me sometime, dude!" I say, trying to sound friendly in front of my crush.

He gets up, leaves the store, then I feel the vibration of my phone receiving a text message in my pocket.
