Millie's Pov

I lean against the counter as I watch the clock tic, second by second. The shop was empty tonight and we are going to be closing in about fifteen minutes. Thank god. Maddie invited me, Sadie, and Noah to her party tonight. I usually don't go to parties but I need to live a little. There was only one week of summer left till school starts and I want to jump off a bridge. Well, not actually but ya know?

"Alright Mills! I am going home, please put the croissants in the oven before you leave. Oh and have fun at your party!", Winona started dancing then hugged me. I smiled and waved as she danced out the door.

Classic Nona. She is like an Aunt to me, I have known her since I was a baby and now I work in her little coffee shop. It gets pretty boring but it pays well, so whatever.

I start to clean all of the counters and sweep the floor. I walk up to the door and flip the open sign to closed. I walk to the back to put my apron on its hook. Then, sudden I hear a knock on the window from the front.

"What the hell?", I whisper to myself then walk to the front. I see four boys standing in the window.

I point to the closed sign and give a 'what the hell' face.

"Is Winona here?! We want some croissants!", says a short wavy haired boy standing in front of the taller boys who were behind him. They all start laughing, I could tell that they were obviously drunk.

"We're closed! Come back tomorrow!" I start to notice some of their faces. I've  seen them skate around town and cause trouble. I've also seen them come in sometimes and talk to Winona.

"But, Winona said to come and ask the short haired girl for the brown bag mark 'boys'!",' I suddenly remember Winona telling me this morning to give some boys the brown bag behind the counter. I swear to god if it's drugs.

"Oh, uh okay sure come in.", I open the door for them. They all stumble in, except for one. He smirks at me then walks in.

He has dark curly hair, dreamy eyes, and killer cheekbones. I have seen him in here a few times but haven't really gotten a good look at him.

They all sit in a booth as I walk behind the counter. I rummage through the counter draws until I come across a brown paper bag. I peek inside to make sure I am not in the middle of a drug deal. Thankfully it was just four croissants.

"Oh! I found it!", I walk out of the counter and place the bag onto the booth's table.

They all have cheesy grins on their faces as they open the bags.

"Well, uh I am going to a party at my friends house. So, I have to go..", I say while grabbing my sweatshirt.

They all look up from their croissants.

"Party? We're going to a party too! We heard there was gonna be one on the North Side", said a very tall and extremely skinny boy.

"Yeah, I'm going to one on the North Side too. Maybe it's the same one.", I said while standing in front of them, sweatshirt in hand.

"Sweet.", said one of the boys with curly hair like ramen.

"Oh, and i'm Millie by the way.", I say.
