warm
"Hey," (Y/N) called out, blowing into her hands as she pushed open the back door of the shop, the little bell ringing quietly. She shook off her coat, thankful for the warmth provided by the machines in the kitchen of the cafe. Shaking her head, she did her best to rid her hair of the snow that had coated it; making it look white.
"Hey, (Y/N)," Asahi replied, poking his head up from the other side of the counter-top, "I think it's just us today, Hinata got ill."
(Y/N) chuckled, rolling her eyes,
"Trust Hinata to get ill at the busiest time of year."
She moved to the front of the shop where Asahi was but stood behind the display case he was cleaning and arranged the pastries neatly inside it, providing easy access during the busy time that was surely ahead.
"We open in five," Asahi informed her, nodding towards the clock before moving in the opposite direction to unlock the dark wooded front door. He offered a reassuring smile as (Y/N) took Hinata's place behind the counter. She didn't particularly enjoy this position and would never match up to Hinata's bubbly greetings and service but her and Asahi agreed it was better her at the front than him as he could potentially scare off customers, as proved in the past. Though she could never see why. To her, his personality was that you'd imagine a teddy bear to have and, as for his height, it just meant more to hug.
The woosh of fresh air cutting through the warmth and the slightly louder jingle of the front door bell alerted (Y/N) to the first customers of the afternoon. She glanced past them out the door to the already setting sun and prepared for to take their orders.
