coffee ; e

it was a cold and windy winters morning. you had just woken up from the one hour of sleep you got due to revision as you have a really big test coming up.

there was a coffee shop near your new apartment that you had been dying to go to but because you were so busy all the time you hadn't had chance too, so now is the perfect opportunity as you were only just awake.

you got dressed into something casual, you wanted to make an effort as you've never been to that coffee shop before so you wanted to make a good impression, yet you couldn't be bothered.

you grabbed your house keys, your laptop and now book and made your way down the street to the coffee shop.

when you got in it was about half full but it was mainly couples on a mini date or friends having a catch-up. you made your way to the queue and had a glance at the drinks menu. the line was quite short so when you made the front of the line you hadn't made you mind up about breakfast.

"hey could i get a flat white with almond milk and," you still hadn't looked up but you glanced at the menu again. "the avocado on whole grain toast please?" you finished.

"and can i get a name for that beautiful?" a deep voice said from behind the counter. you looked up immediately. you saw the most handsome human you thought you had ever laid your eyes on. you realised you had been staring so shook yourself out of your little day dream. "i'm y-y/n." you stuttered nervously as this gorgeous man was still staring into your eyes.

"take a seat and i'll bring it over y/n." he smiled.

you nodded, paid, said thank you and walked over to the small window seat. you then opened up your laptop and notebook and continued to revise. but it was impossible. the perfect boy who called you pretty minutes before was still going around your head.

you glanced over to the counter and noticed his gorgeous hair that suited him amazingly and his small smile whenever the next customer came to order.

you snapped out of your little thought bubble and tried your hardest to focus on the task at hand, revision.

five minutes later, the handsome guy walked over to you with your flat white and avocado on toast. he made eye contact the whole time which caused butterflies to erupt inside of you. "here you go y/n." he said. "thank you...." you paused hoping he would introduce himself. "ethan." he answered. "thank you ethan." he smirked at you, eyeing you a little, then walked away. you were surprised at your sudden burst of confidence.

you continued to revise. taking a break every now and then to either glance at ethan or have a sip of your coffee or bite of your toast.

ethan was so dreamy. he's called me beautiful. been super nice to me. smirked at me. eyed me up. i need to ask for his number.

after you'd finished your breakfast you walked over to the counter. "hey ethan?" he was busy cleaning the coffee machine. he looked up a smile springing upon his face. "anything i can help with y/n?" you got nervous when we said your name.

"um, i was um, wondering if um i could-" i failed. i just looked like a complete idiot in front of the hottest guy. well done y/n! well done. "have my number?" ethan finished for you. "yeah. how-" you were so confused. "i was gonna ask you myself but i guess you beat me to it." he smiled, causing you to blush and look down at your feet.

you exchanged numbers and just as you were about to leave he said, "come back soon gorgeous." to which you replied. "of course."
