7:30 am

I arose from my bed. Cool air filled the room as I opened a window of my apartment. Quickly I got a shower. The water felt nice against my soft fragile skin.

Once I was out I dried off and got dressed quickly. I don't want to be late for my shift at the coffee shop. So I put on my uniform, put my peach hair in a braid and put very little makeup on.

I rushed to my car and drove quickly. With not a minute to spare I made it on time.

"Good morning!" I say to Claire, my best friend, since kindergarten.

"Good morning to you too!" She smiled.

I went behind the counter and checked in. After that I waited a few tables. Saying 'good morning! What would you like' to every customer.

"Miss. Howardson, may I see you in my office?" I nodded and followed my boss to the back.

"Sit." I do as said.

"Miss. Howardson, I respect you very much! And your so wonderful to our customers! So, I would like to up your pay!" I smiled widely.

"Oh, thank you!! It is a great honor!" I say smiling from ear to ear.

"Your are very welcome! Now go make me proud!" I nodded and thanked him once more. Today will be a great day!

Time passes on and soon enough it was my break for lunch! Yay! I got my usual sandwich and a bottle of water and sat at the window.

It is a beautiful day. The sun is shining brightly. The birds are chirping and every one has a huge smile on there faces.

I was snapped out of my thoughts when a blonde headed guy sits acrose from me. He has man bun. Cute. He has a very defined face, with emerald eyes. He is slim but he has toned muscles. Over all he is very attractive!

"Hello. Can I help you with something?" I ask.

"No. This is just my usual place to sit." He answers.

"Well I can move if you want. I don't mind." I suggested.

"No. Its cool." He answers.

"So. You come here often?" I ask piddling with my fingers.

"Yeah I usually come here around 6:30." He answers placing his elbows on the table and putting his hand together

"Early bird?" I ask.

"Sorta. I'm a model and I have to be there by 7. So I'm usually up early."

"A model. I can see that clearly." I smiled.

"I like your hair it's different." It uniqe." I smiled.

"Thank you! I got it done a couple months ago. I wanted to stand out." I say.

"Well you accomplished that!" He says smiling.

"So what is your name?" I ask.

"Chance. Yours is?"

"Langley." I answer.

"Nice to have met you!" He said reaching up for my hand to shake. I shook his hand. It was soft. Chills came upon my arm.

"You too." I say. I look at my phone. 12:56. I had my next shift at 1.

"Unfortunately, I have to get back waiting tables so..." I say.

"Can I get your number?" I nodded and we exchanged phones.

I got up and went to the back and checked back in. I could see Chance was still here. Nice.

Soon enough he had waved good bye and left. I think today was great!
