I'm going to be changing up the point of views a little in this chapter. 

Enjoy!

-Luke's POV-

I had been at work for not even an hour and I already knew this was going to be a long day. I usually had Sunday's off but Jeffery, my boss, just loved to change up my schedule. It annoyed the hell out of me. I'm pretty sure Jeffery hated me and would do absolutely anything just to annoy me or even make me quit. 

Sunday's were slow days, everyone knew that and that's why no one loved being at work on Sundays. Yeah, sure it makes your job easier when hardly anyone is there, but it also makes your day go by super slow. To make it even better I was alone. The guy that was supposed to work with me today called in 'Sick' and well, Jeffery never is here unless someone screwed up or robbed the place.

So I stood behind the cyan colored countertop that was extremely shiny due to me cleaning it every five minutes when I became bored. Nothing can ever be TO clean right? Well at least that's what my mother used to tell me. 

Speaking of my mother I needed to call her soon, I really missed her. Ever since I moved in with Casey I hadn't talked much with my mother. What was weird was the day that she agreed to me moving in with Casey. 

The brown haired boy constantly harassed me about when I was going to ask my mom, so one day I got annoyed of him and asked my mom. I was expecting my mom to do one of two things; Laugh in my face or tell me no. What I didn't expect was her telling me I could as long as I called her often. 

That night Casey stayed over and we packed up whatever we could and the next morning we drove to the new apartment that we'd both be sharing. It only took a full day to get my things moved in. It would have taken less time had it not been an hour drive to and from the apartment and my moms house.

Almost a year later and here we are. I had only gotten to visit my mom a few times. Mostly on holidays or on my birthday. A much needed visit was coming up soon and I needed to talk to her.

The sound on the chime from the door interrupted my thoughts. 

I placed a smile on my face as I looked up and said, with a sweet voice, "Welcome to 'The Cafe'" 

I know how original.

There standing on the other side of the counter was a boy that was probably around my age or older. He had dark brown hair and matching brown eyes that were really captivating for some reason. His smile was probably one of my favorite things about his face. I hadn't really gotten to look at the rest of him as I felt him staring at me and I just knew I was caught.

I cleared my throat speaking again "What can I get for you today?" 

The boy hummed looking above me at the menu before saying "Can I get...uh..just a regular coffee please." He looked back down to me.

I nodded my head as I typed in his order. I told the boy his total cost and took the money putting it in the drawer before turning around and making his drink.

I could feel his eyes burning a hole into my back, but just let it go and continued to make his drink.

-Calum's POV- 

Waking up early on a Sunday morning was never in my plans, but it still happened.

I groaned rolling over to see Ashton was still asleep, no he was not my boyfriend nor my friend with benefit or whatever people called them these days. Ashton was my best friend and the reason for him being in my bed was simple, we lived together. Last night was a late night full of all kinds of movies and junk food so Ashton just staid in my bed.

I let the boy sleep as I slipped out of my bed and over to my closet.

Black was my theme for today...okay it was my theme for everyday but still. I grabbed my favorite black skinnies and a black t-shirt along with my black jacket that would go over it. After changing into the clothes, I figured I could go for a little walk and maybe even get used to everything. Ashton and I had just moved into this neighborhood and had only been here for a week. Due to working most of the time we didn't really have time to get out and explore the neighborhood.

I grabbed my keys before slipping on my shoes and left the apartment, locking the door before going.

Instantly I was blinded by the light as soon as I opened the complex door. I was to lazy to take the elevator all the way up to the apartment so I just dealt with it. I knew that after a while it would go away anyway.

I made my way down the sidewalk just looking around at all the people going into these cute little shops. Yes, cute. This was one of the reasons why Ashton and I picked the apartment, it was in walking distance to little shops and I was told that there was a coffee shop that sold the best coffee. Deciding that I would find out for myself I looked around for the little shop.

After five minutes of walking I stumbled upon the little shop. 'The Cafe' was written in a lilac color over the door. How original, I thought to myself as I reached for the door handle. The bell chimed letting the worker know a customer came in. 

I looked around seeing no body else was in the shop before I looked over to the counter to see a blonde standing there staring down at the counter top. 

Soon the boy looked up and sent me a smile then spoke with one of the softest and sweetest voices I had ever heard. "Welcome to "The Cafe'"

I smiled looking at the boy that seemed to be checking me out. I guess he soon realized that I caught him since he stopped looking and cleared his throat.

"What can I get for you today?"

I walked up to the counter looking at the menu and all the different options. Whenever it came to ordering coffee from a place I never knew what to get that would normally be Ashton's job. 

"Can I get...uh..just a regular coffee please." I spoke.

The boy nodded his head typing in the order before telling me my total. I handed over the money and after putting it in the drawer he turned around to make my coffee.

I took this time to check out the boy. Upon walking up to the counter a while ago I noticed his piercing blue eyes and his pretty smile. But now, I could see his back side..aka his ass, and boy did he have a nice ass. 

What? I know a good ass when I see one. (my brother saw this and started laughing at me.)

Sadly the boy turned around so I couldn't stare anymore. He handed over my coffee with a smile "'ere you go." 

I thanked him before turning around and walking towards the door, but before I left I turned around one more time to see the beautiful blonde boy. I spoke to him with a smile "See you later Princess." just before leaving out the door and walking back to the apartment.

+++++

I think that was one of the best endings to a chapter I've ever done. Normally they are awkward and yeah.

So Calum was introduced and a sleeping Ash but he'll probably be introduced in one of the next chapters, he'll be awake this time. XD

So yeah I decided to update a little early because I really had nothing else better to do.

I hope you all enjoyed!
