I sighed lightly as the cold breeze slashed harshly against my skin, my thin shirt seeming almost useless as I attempted to shield myself from the cold. I looked around, sighing shakily as my parents coffee shop came into view. I sped up, breaking into a sprint as I barged in, twitching lightly.

"H- Hi m- mom- GAH!" I greeted, twitching as I eyed the shop warily, scanning the tables for anyone I knew. Eventually, my eyes locked with a pair of icy blues, and a smile stretched over my face for a second, quickly being overtaken by constant twitching and occasional yelling.

I entered the back of the shop and put on my apron, walking back out as I headed over to Craig, fighting the desperate urge to pull him into a sudden hug. "H- Hey, Craig." I greeted.

He waved simply, keeping his eyes glued to the table. I frowned, coughing lightly and continuing. "Y- You w- want anything?" I asked, and he nodded. "Just a latte." he said bluntly, his voice seeming deeper and blanker than usual. I furrowed my brows, nodding and running to the kitchen.

I got the drink, and tried my hardest not to spill it on my way back to his table. Didn't work too well, so my dad came and gave it to Craig instead.

I sat at the table, grasping my arms tightly to avoid smacking anything, up to the point I nails piercing into my skin. I hissed in pain, but nonetheless looked up at Craig. "A- Are you okay?" I questioned, my eyebrow raising with concern. He nodded simply, taking a sip out of the beverage as my eyes narrowed.

"B- Bullshit."

Craig stared at me, seemingly shocked. I wasn't big on swearing, so this was definitely new for him. I eyed him suspiciously, inching my chair closer as I hesitantly rested a shaky hand on his shoulder. "w- what's wrong?" I asked, genuine worry clear in my tone. He began to stiffen, before I felt him wrap his arms around me all of a sudden.  

"I had a terrible day..." He admitted, burying his face in my shoulder as I hugged back, rubbing his back soothingly as I let him continue. "I had a fight with my dad, you guys were all busy so I had to deal with his shit all day... I had mood drops every two minutes..." He ranted, and I felt my heart sink every time, before I finally broke the hug, placing my hands firmly on my shoulders as I focused on not stuttering or anything.

"It's okay. I'm here for you, I- I always will be... Through thick and th- thin." I promised. He nodded, chuckling lightly as he leaned closer, his lips meeting mine as a smile grew over my face.

I made a promise, and I would keep it.
