Okay... is Blitzers fine?
7:26

He didn't respond. I impatiently drummed my fingers against the wooden table. What's wrong with Blitzers? Did he not like the place? Fuck... was it rude of me to not invite him over?

I ran my fingers through my hair and continued to worriedly frown.

ColeBr9
Great, see you there
text me the time
7:28

Phew... that made me release a breath I didn't even know I was holding.

"Bred!" I hadn't even noticed Lexi walking through the door of the small café.

I snapped my phone shut and almost slammed my laptop down.

"Ooh, what did I just catch you doing?" she raised an eyebrow and smothered a giggle,

"Oh my gosh Bred, please tell me you weren't, like, watching por-"

"Lexi," I snapped angrily. I knew she was joking but, she was being too loud. The girl behind the counter was giving me an amused look.

My cousin proceeded to laugh, then sank into the seat in front of me.

Her blonde hair was plastered around her face, probably sticky with salt water. Her face wasnt caked with makeup for once and she looked about 2 years year than usual.

"Pans ordering smoothies!" She informed, grinning giddily.

"Right. Go surfing at 7 pm in freezing cold water and then drink cold iced smoothies. You two are looking for every possible way to catch a cold," I scoffed, shaking my head.

"Shhh, Raspberry-banana is the best thing that ever happened!"

I smiled in memory, "You and Laurance should fangirl about Raspberry-banana smoothies together then."

Her nose wrinkled into a frown, "Laurance?"

Of course.

Lexi probably wasn't paying attention to anyone around her.

"Ohh. Wait. I remember. The girl with the long brown hair! She's the one whos always with those two guys, yeah?"

I nodded. Those two guys. I'll be sitting with one of those two guys.

In here.

Just the two of us...

And we'll be working on a literature project.

Buzzkill.

Pan arrived and set 2 smoothies and a plate of fries down.

"Dig in. I'm not making dinner tonight."
