Just another ordinary day at the shop. I wouldn't say I didn't like working here, but it's definitely not what I would want to do in my free time. I worked here from 7 am to 6 pm; which isn't too bad but still, like I said, I would rather be somewhere else.
Or until, I heard the front door ring. I saw two handsome men walk through.
"Welcome!" I said cheery, trying not to stutter.
They nodded in my direction letting me know they heard me. Except the man with the black contacts; happened to stare at me longer than someone should've. Not that I was complaining, I got a good look at his intriguing features.
Although I liked the way the contacts looked on him, I wanted to know his real eye color.
I waited patiently behind the counter, making time pass by, by browsing my social. The occasional laugh and cringe made their way across my face as I watched videos and looked at memes.
As I was reading, I heard a cough. The taller man held 3 records while the black eyed man only held 1.
"Oh, I'm so sorry!"
"Don't worry about it..." Black eyes paused to squint at my name tag.
"Christina." He smiled.
"Will this be all together or separate payments?"
"Together."
"That'll be $60."
"Thank you for coming! Have a nice day."
"You too, baby." Black eyes winked at me as he walked out the door with, im assuming, his friend.
I've might've acted calm but deep down, I was worried I'd embarrassed myself. Thankfully I didn't.

As I lay in bed on a Saturday, staring blankly at the Tv while thinking hard about what tattoo I'd like to get under my left ass cheek. I've been thinking about "SINNER."
I decided to ask a friend to join me, so I wouldn't be alone. I called up my dear friend, Indiya and asked if she would join me, and luckily she said 'yes' because I don't really have other friends.

I laid flat on my tummy with a clear view of the entrance.
"We're almost done" said the artist.
Indiya was sitting next to me on her phone doing whatever she was doing. Relaxing, I closed my eyes; then I heard the entrance door jingle. In walked black eyes with the same friend from the shop. I instantly tensed.
"Relax." my artist warned.
I did as told but I was afraid of black eyes seeing me this way. Just then, I saw black eyes glance in my direction. He smirked.
I felt vulnerable so I just closed my eyes and rested my head on my arms, pretending he wasn't there.
5 minutes later...
"We're done!"
I got up, trying to adjust and focus my eyes.
"Take a picture Indiya, so I can see wassup."
Handing me the phone, I smiled once I saw it.
"Thank you so much! I really appreciate it."
"No problem! Hope you come by again."
"I definitely will. Bye!"
"Sis big pimpin' now!" Indiya exclaimed.
"Yeah, yeah." I giggled.
I almost forgot black eyes was here, until he got up from the waiting chairs. Standing in front of me, he smiled.
"Hey, didn't expect seeing you here."
"I could say the same." I looked at my feet.
"I was wondering if I could get your number and maybe we could hangout sometime."
"Oh, of course."
He handed me his phone.
I put my number under Christina.
"It was a pleasure meeting you again. See you soon, cutie."

I finally learned black eyes name, Bexey, or at least that's what he goes by. We decided on dinner and an arcade. Bexey was sweet and amazing to talk to. We shared the same interests and understood each other. If he felt the same way, I'd like to get comfortable with him. The night ended smoothly, we stood outside and ice cream shop we decided to go to last minute.
"You're really, really amazing Christina. I enjoyed tonight."
"Me too, Bexey. Thank you for showing me how to have a good time."
As I licked my vanilla ice cream cone swirl; I could feel Bexey's eyes on me. I looked up only to be surprised as he engulfed his soft lips onto mine.
He tasted like chocolate.
