Prologue- "Sorry""Hey Alice, how's that new history professor?" Alice works at my favorite coffee shop, Beanleaf. I go there every morning before school, and everyday after. I might have a slight addiction to coffee but nothing major.
"So... how's the homework over there? This is your third cup since you started. You okay?" She asks as she pours the liquid goodness in my paper cup.
"It's homework Alice. Nothing a little coffee can't help. Oh can you make that one to go? Izzy needs me to drive her to the mall." She looks up at the sound of the bell when you first walk in the cozy shop.
"Welcome to Beanleaf!" She says, not really looking up to see who walked through the doors.
"Have fun with that, Alec. Why does she need to go shopping this time? New party?" She finishes with a scoff. I just roll my eyes and sigh.
"Some guy name... Mason something I think. I wasn't really paying attention. I bet he's a tot-"
"Hi, sorry to interrupt but I was wondering if you could tell me where the bathroom is." Alice puts down my coffee and asks if I can show this guy where the bathroom is.
"Follow me." I mutter under my breath. Trying my hardest not to look up because I know that voice. I know exactly who that voice belongs to; Magnus Bane. He's the most popular guy at my school. I've had the biggest crush on him since on his first day, I accidentally fell on him in the hallway... yeah that's right, I fell on him.
"Thanks man." He says as he walks in. I then look up only to come face to face with a door. I made my way back to Alice to grab my coffee and tell her about what just happened.
"-and then I looked up, you wanna know what I saw when I looked up? A door! A freaking door, Alice! God, I'll never live this down." I mutter as I put my face in my hands.
Alice puts a reassuring hand on my shoulder and I look up at her to be met with her crooked smile. "At least he doesn't know who you are... wow that sounded way better in my head. Look Alec just don't worry about it." She chuckled humorously.
"Easy for you to say. You should have been there Alice, I looked like a damn idiot!" I almost yell out of frustration.
I glance at my watch to see it's 4:30, "I better go. I'll text you." I say as I grab my coffee and walk back to my table to collect my things. After I grabbed everything, I start walking with my head down texting Izzy I'll be on my way only to come colliding into a firm body. I look up only to be met with beautiful yellow eyes. Kill me now.
