It's the next day, and school just ended for Elena. She drives over to studio and sees Stefan. She starts to feel butterflies in her stomach. "Hey," he says as he starts walking over to her, "Layna, right?" she looks down at her feet nervously.
"Elena, actually.. But you can just call me whatever." she smiles. "So, what should I do first?"
"How about..." he looks around the store without a clue. "Running to the Coffee Hut (their local coffee store) and grabbing 2 coffees? I have a client in the studio."
"Cool beans!" she says excitedly, "like.. coffee beans.." she nervously laughs. Wow? Really Elena.. she thinks to herself. "Cool beans"?! Now he thinks I'm an idiot. He smiles and walks away.

She walks into the studio with the cups of coffee about 20 minutes later. "Stefan?" she asks.
"Oh god." Marie says in an annoyed tone when she sees that Elena is actually Stefan's new assistant. Elena rolls her eyes, already expecting this to happen.
"What, is something wrong?" Stefan asks Marie.
"Yep. Why is she here?" She makes eye contact with her as Elena scratches her head and looks away.
"Uhh.." Stefan doesn't know how to reply, "I thought you.. wanted coffee?"
"Look, Marie.. This is my new job and.. I'm not gonna bother you so." Elena says.
"Wait. What's going on? Do you two know each other?" Stefan says while looking very confused.
"You could say that.. She's my sister." Marie rolls her eyes.
"Ohh," Stefan laughs relieved. "I thought you guys were gonna kill each other or something."
Marie lightly pushes Stefan in a flirty way. "I will! If she keeps bothering us.." She gets closer to Stefan to annoy Elena, and puts her hand around his broad shoulders.
Stefan blushes. "Ok well, thanks Layna for the coffee. Now you can go.. work the register in the shop or, whatever." he says without even looking at Elena, and keeping eye contact with Marie.
"Got it.." Elena says without trying to cry. She puts the coffee down on the table and quickly walks out of the room.
