Crystal Skies

Crysta walked in the familiar shop of Pho, instantly overwhelmed with the mouthwatering smell of pizza.

While the smell of pizza assaulted her nose, she looked at the almost empty restaurant. There was a couple in the corner, with the girl talking animatedly, her eyes wide and cheeks flushed. Right in the centre of the restaurant sat a girl and boy, both of them not older than six or eight. The girl was blushing furiously while the boy just stared at her in adoration.

Crystal internally awed at the site.

The classic vibe of the cherry red booths, the retro menus and innumerable photos of The Beatles which hung on the walls, brightened her mood.

Crystal went to the counter with her heartbeat audible in her ears, and her palms sweaty, because there right in front of her, stood none other than Skye.

When she reached the counter, Skye looked up with a lopsided grin plastered on his face and said, "Hi! How can I help you?"

Crystal almost swooned at his voice. Key word: almost.

She blatantly stared at his face for a solid minute before Skye said, "Ma'am?"

She snapped out her reverie and squeaked out her order, and then ran at the booth in the corner faster than you could say Oreo.

Skye stared at the girl who just went by weirdly.

He was already depressed as it as. It had been exactly two days since Crystal talked to him and honestly, his heart was breaking piece by piece by each passing second.

He shaked his head to clear his head, and unconsciously, his eyes strayed to the girl sitting right below John Lennon's photo.

She was oddly beautiful. Not in the classic way. She was the kind of beauty that made your heart stop, that made you glow with happiness just because the person was there.
And he swears to God, when she entered the restaurant, his lungs stopped working.

Soon enough, the pizza was ready, and he took the pizza to the girl's table, heart beating fast.

He set the pizza down, and was surprised when the girl said,

"Thanks Skye"

And yet again, his heart stopped. Because there was only one person in the entire world who could pronounce his name like that.

And that person was Crystal. And she was sitting right in front of him.

"Crystal?"
