AMBER POV

The bell on the door rings cheerfully as I walk in the coffee shop. The aroma of spices and coffee beans greet me as I walk in and I reach in my pocket to check my phone. I check if I got a text from Thomas, but the screen is blank. I suddenly get a unnatural feeling of anxiety, and I start to think that Thomas won't come at all.

I hear another cheerful bell ring, and I turn around to see who has come in.

"Hey!" Thomas greets me, with a warm smile spread across his face.
Oh my god, he looks so hot!

"Hi!" I reply happily, as I wave at him. I catch him looking at me up and down, and I blush. In response, he motions over to the barista, and we walk over to order our coffee. We choose a small wooden table to sit at, by a huge window that looked out to show people walking and streets.

We talk about our lives, and then we start to have a conversation about our past relationships. I shift in my seat, and start picking at my nails, which is what I do when I get nervous or uncomfortable. Thomas starts showing me signs that he was getting uncomfortable too, so we change the topic to figure skating and hockey.

"How long have you been skating?" Thomas asks.

"I started skating when I was two, so... I've been skating for 14 years," I said, with a hint of boastfulness in my voice.

"Wow! I started playing hockey when I was 4, so 12 years for me," Thomas said proudly.

"No wonder you're so fast!" I exclaim. We continued to talk, but I felt my phone vibrate in my pocket, and I realized that someone was calling me.

"Excuse me, is it all right if I quickly take this call?" I ask Thomas, trying to not be rude. He held up a thumbs-up, and signals me to go take the call.

I take out my phone, and I check the caller I.D.

My heart drops.

"Oh no.." I mutter under my voice.

Jason, my ex-boyfriend, was calling me.
