Here I am, standing in front of the coffee house again.

I came here to check up on Joseph and see if he was here today. I quickly entered and headed straight for the order station.

I made myself look as if I was deciding what to order. Suddenly, a handsome boy with chocolate brown eyes and jet black hair stepped up towards the cash register.

"Welcome to Caffè Umbria, what can I get for you," he asked, his deep voice vibrating through the room.

"Uhhhh...I'm not sure. What do you recommend," I asked curiously.

Obviously I'm not human, so I have no idea what's on this menu.

"Well, I recommend the Caramel Macchiato. It has a great taste," he suggested.

"I guess I'll take one of those," I stated as I looked over his shoulder in search of a certain someone.

"Are you looking for someone," he questioned.

"Uh...no sorry."

He quickly gave me a bright smile. "That'll be five dollars and seventy six cents."

I hurriedly handed him the money. He gave me my receipt and yelled my order to the girl behind him.

"You must be new here," he said.

"Yeah, I'm just visiting for a while with my brother."

"Maybe I could show you around. It may rain a lot but I like to think that Seattle is a beautiful place to live," he announced excitedly.

I decided to be nice to the boy. I mean he's super hot, so why not?

"I'd love to have a tour of Seattle," love exclaimed.

"Awesome, my name is Hunter Bryce."

"My name is Evelyn Reed."

"It's very nice to meet you Evelyn. Not to sound pushy or anything, but could I have your number," he asked quietly.

"Sure!"

We quickly exchanged numbers.

"Caramel Macchiato," yelled the girl behind the counter.

Hunter rushed over to grab my coffee. He gently handed me my coffee and gave me a sweet smile.

"I'll text you when I'm free and we can begin our tour then," he spoke.

"Okay," I replied gently.

"Have a nice night Evelyn," he whispered.

"You too."

I exited the coffee house and headed back to my hotel. Once I was far enough away from Hunter's gaze, I threw the coffee into the trash.

I might have to visit Caffè Umbria a lot more during my stay in Washington.

Evelyn might end up with a crush. I haven't decided on whether I want him to be her love interest or not.

I hope you enjoyed this chapter and if you did please vote. I hope everyone is having a great day!
