Kararn's an over excited person. He's been like that since the first day I met him and I'm sure he'd continue on that way until his deathbed.

Work ticked by quickly as usual when we were working together. Our registers were once again back to back and we were chatting animatedly about his boyfriend finally giving him the time of day. To say he was singing and dancing all day with customers wouldn't even be an overstatement.

"We went on a date, it was beautiful. Henry got me roses, they were so beautiful. We went out to that new restaurant on the esplanade. There were flowers there too," Kararn let out an over dramatic sigh filled with happiness once he's done blabbing away. "I love flowers and he must of taken note of that too. There's no way he would of just thought to bring roses, like he obviously knows they're my favourites."

I smiled at how happy he was and turned around to face him when there's no customers in sight, him following suit. "So you're official now?"

A grin broke across his face and he nodded excited and I gave him a grin back.

"That's so exciting. Still want a wedding on the beach?" I joked and he nodded again, still in glee. "Of course you do. How are you already planning your wedding?"

His eyes switched to behind me and I turned my whole body around thinking I had a customer. My eyes rested on Sebastian walking towards us instead. For the shifts I've had this week, Sebastian managed to pick me up from every one of them and it was beginning to become a routine that even Kararn's used to.

Kararn lowly spoke so Sebastian couldn't hear with his eyes still trained on him. "I've planned your wedding too."

When Sebastian reached us, my damn manager grins. "Here's the groom."

Sebastian looked between us and my eyes widened as I choked on air. "What?"

Kararn just shook his head and patted me on the back, "go get your shit, you're off."

Following his instructions, I walked off, mouthing 'what?' to him again, resulting in a cheeky grin.

I went to the staff changing room and put a jumper over my uniform-clad body, packing all of my things into my bag and finally signing out and leaving.

As I walked towards the front of the store, Kararn and Sebastian looked busy in conversation and as I walked closer to them, they quickly quit talking.

"Can you guys stop talking about me?" I stood in front of them and rolled my eyes while Kararn looks sheepish.

"You ready?" Sebastian's already said his goodbyes to Kararn and is walking to the automatic doors by the time I had a chance to answer him.

I turned towards the grinning man behind the register. "What were you talking about?"

His grin widened. "Goodbye Aubrey."
