Sebastian waited nervously at Lydia's apartment door after he rung the doorbell. He absentmindedly ran his hand through his hair and licked his lips as he waited for his date to arrive at the door. Finally, the door opened revealing Lydia in an oversized shirt and leggings. The Romanian raised one eyebrow at this and the brunette shrugged.

"What? You didn't specify what kind of date it was so I went for casual. Plus, it's comfortable." Lydia explained.

Sebastian chuckled, taking Lydia's hand in his. "It's not that. It's just, wow. You look really beautiful, Lyds. Usually I only see you in work clothes or dresses."

Lydia blushed at his blatant statement and stepped outside of her doorway. After she closed and locked her apartment door, Lydia and Sebastian made their way down the stairs.

"So, Mr. Stan. What's your plan?" Lydia asked, playing with the hem of her shirt.

"I actually don't know. Maybe we can start out with coffee?"

"Oh thank God. Yes I would love some coffee. My coffee machine stopped working this morning and I had to drink this weird herbal tea instead."

Sebastian laughed at his date's rambling but let her talk on. By the time they reached Millie's Coffee House, Lydia was almost finished with her "herbal tea" story. The pair walked into the coffee shop and stood in line, trying to decide what they should each have. Several people around them statutes taking pictures which they didn't pay attention to- they were used to it.

The cashier choked on the water she was drinking when Lydia and Sebastian came into view and shakily asked them what they would like to drink.

"I'll take a large vanilla latte. Two shots of espresso. And you, Lyds?" Sebastian asked.

"I'll also take a large but I'll have an iced caramel macchiato with whip."

"Th-that'll be $12.34. Names? Wait, never mind. I know who you both are. N-not in a creepy way of course I've just seen you two in a whole lot of movies. Might I say your acting skills are amazing a-and I don't even know what I'm saying. I apologize." The cashier rambled, nervously twisting her black ponytail.

"Oh, it's fine, darling." Sebastian replied, taking out his credit card.

"No! I'll pay for my drink thank-you very much."
