Holly Winter loves the holiday season. Her name is just part of her spirit of Christmas because she loves it through and through. She almost seems half elf, which is why the movie Elf is her all time favorite. Although she loves everything about...
I stood there staring at him for the longest time. He was even cuter than he looked in pictures (even though I wasn't really sure how that was possible) and he had the most adorable smile on his face. It felt like at least a minute before I finally realized that I was staring, accept it was probably only 10 seconds. I quickly looked away completely embarrassed. My face was probably beet red and I felt like I was hyperventilating. I finally worked up the courage to say something to him.
"Haha yeah. Starbucks is great." I said awkwardly.
Then an idea came to me.
"I actually work here. I can make you a drink if you want."
"Aww are you sure? That would actually be great, I'm supposed to be at the theatre soon."
"Okay great! What do you want? I can make it for you right now." I told him while fangirling way too much in my head.
"I'll have a Grande Iced Caramel Macchiato."
"Okay cool! I'll have it for you in like 5 minutes." I said as I rushed off to the front.
As I was making his drink I couldn't help but be a little bit proud. I knew a lot of baristas who would kill to serve/meet a Broadway star. It's weird for me that I'm in that crowd now, but I guess I should just embrace it.
Holly's POV
While Ivy rushed off to make a drink for some random guy, which was really weird by the way, I was left standing next to him. I usually don't mind at all when I have to talk to strangers, but the way that this guy made Ivy's face the color of Rudolph's nose left me a little intimidated. I looked at him a little closer, and he was kinda cute. And I absolutely hate awkward situations (almost as much as I hate musical theatre) so I did my best to start a conversation.
"So do you come here often?" I asked him.
"Yeah pretty often. You?" He said before looking back at his phone.
Oh great. He's one of the unpredictable-not-social type.
"I come here for the holiday drinks usually. And the fun holiday cups!" I said while making sure I didn't ramble.
Why was I so nervous in front of this guy?
"Haha you like Christmas a lot, huh?" He replied sarcastically.
It was very obvious though. I usually get my holiday wardrobe on waaay before December starts. Usually in January. Translation: you will never find me without green or red on. Today I was wearing a red plaid shirt with a red scarf and forest green pants.

I may be "Christmas crazy" but I can still be stylish.
"Yes I love it! I mean who doesn't? The lights and the atmosphere..."
