After washing up what felt like never ending coffee cups and various plates and bowls I finally heard dan turn up the music from outside the kitchen. which meant the customers had gone and we had about and hour to clean up before all the mothers came in for coffee and a gossip as they usually did.
"Mel help!"dan shouted from the front.
"What the hell happened?"I asked as I walked in to see dan on the floor surrounded by a lot of knives and forks
"I tripped over the table"he whined still lying on the floor.
"Here"I muttered helping him up so he was standing in front of me our bodies inches apart, his eyes looking directly into mine.
"We should pick these up"I muttered my voice sounding breathless.
"We should"dan said his voice sounding breathless as well. His hazel eyes still staring straight into mine his head leaning towards me. What was I doing? I didn't want this. Did I? I could feel his breath against my lips sending shivers down my back I was to caught I the moment to care.
The front door swung open and slammed shut breaking the moment. I stumbled backwards moving away from dan.
"I should probably go and ermm"I said speaking so fast my words stumbling over themselves.
"Yeah and I'll" he muttered gesturing towards the mess of cutlery on the floor.
I walked towards the counter my heart beating out of my chest. I looked up to see who had come in. I looked up straight into his sky blue eyes
"Oh it's you, do you stalk all the girls you knock over with your skate board?"I asked him sarcastically.I watched Luke look me up and down as he lent casually against the counter
"Naaa just the special ones"he smirked
"So sir what can I get you?"I asked shaking off his comment
"Actually I came here to ask you something" he smiled. Damn would he stop doing that! He was extremely cute when he smiled.
"So you didn't want anything?" I asked raising my eyebrows and crossing my arms.
"Okay fine I'll have a caramel latte"he answered after briefly looking at the menu on wall above me.
"So what did you want to ask me?"I asked as I turned around and bent down to reach the milk out of the fridge he didn't reply. I was pretty sure I'd said that out loud. I turned round to see him smirking at me "hello?!"I almost shouted at him
"I err um sorry"he muttered he blushed slightly making him look even cuter. "I came to ask what time you finished"he finally answered after I handed him the drink he'd ordered.
"And why did you want to ask me that?"I asked confused.
"Because since you ran off last night I felt like I still owed you a walk home and because I'm such a gentleman I asked a few people found out where you worked so I could walk you home"he finished he sounded proud of himself, I had know Idea why?
"You say gentleman it's sounding more like stalker"I said sarcastically earning a laugh from Luke.
"So what time do you finish?"he asked sipping his coffee.
"As soon as possible"I muttered as i glanced over to dan who was now mopping the floor.
"Aww did you and your boyfriend fallen out or something?"he laughed.
"He's not my boyfriend!"I almost shouted at Luke. "we're just friends!"I added.
"Okay,okay calm down although are you sure he knows that?"Luke asked glancing over to dan.
