The Scholarship

Starbucks ~ 10

Me and Amy had just finished So you think you have a chance? (Will won), and are now waiting on Lucy in Starbucks. We hadn't been there long. I just checked my phone to find that it was 12:58PM and took a sip of my drink, before opening the app, temple run. I have a few games, and beat my high score! Overall; I get a lot more coins, 1 more person, a few power ups, and level up! Which I'm pretty chuffed about! Amy gives me a nudge as Lucy walks past the shop window and through the door. She begins to scan the room before she noticing us giving her a little wave. Once done she approaches the table and is about to say something, but closes her mouth and sits down hanging her bag over the corner of the chair. She picks up her drink and takes a sip, whilst putting it down she looked over to her bag.

Lucy gets out her phone from her back pocket and places it on the table.

"What time is Molly getting here?" Amy asked.

"Don't know." Lucy and I say in sync.

It wasn't long after, that I got a little tap on the shoulder. It was my boyfriend, Connor.

"Hi..." I said.

"Hey." He replied, "So what are you doing here then?"

"Well we are going to set the tablets up in a bit, and we can have a catch up too. What are you doing here?"

"Oh I've just come here with my mates, we're gonna watch a movie later." He says, pointing to his friends.

"Are we still on for later?"

"Yeah, and also can't you like ask before it's open or something? I've seen ads. So they'll still be wanting jobs." Lucy and Amy give me blank expressions. Nothing. Zero. Zultch.

"What job?" They both said together.

"Wow, you really don't tell them much do you?" Connor said. Still nothing.

"Well yeah, I'm applying for a job at a restaurant that's opening up today."

"What time?" Lucy asked.

"About, mmmm? 4:30 I think."

"I'll come round to yours for about 3:30 then?" I nod, "See you then." He says, before pecking me on the cheek and walking over to his waiting table.

"I'll call Molly." I say standing up, I walk over to the door and stand just outside . I take my phone and go on contacts before scrolling through and swiping hers. And she doesn't leave it long to pick up.

"Hi, you coming?" I ask.

"Yeah, I'm just stuck in traffic!"

"How long are you off?"

"Oh wait, I can see you now."

Then a car pulls up beside me with the friendly face of Molly inside. The phones start to crackle, until I lift mine and end the call.

"So come on, we're all in, and have gotten you a drink." I say.

"Oh you shouldn't have!"

"Well tough!!! You're gonna have it if I have to shove it down your neck!!!" I say jokingly as we walk over to the table with smiles.
