ottos pov

after otto let go of azira he watched her walk back behind the counter. he saw, pretty sure her name was kate, freaking out about our encounter. he just quietly laughed and returned to the boys' booth.

"dude you so like her," awsten says, stuffing his face with fries. "damn i dont know what these australians do to make these fries taste so fucking good."

otto just nodded and laughed, ignoring his statement and turning hid head to look at the blonde girl hes taken a liking to. geoff eyed him and before otto could eye him back he spoke up.

"even if your able to go out with her, you wont be here long enough to have that strong of a bond. we're leaving in 3 days." geoff looked at otto with sympathy in his eyes, otto knew he was right but he also knew that if he doesnt act straight away she could be gone before his eyes.

he knew from experience.

"i know but... i just dont wanna... i dont wanna regret not doing it later. if i regret doing it later thats fine i just wanna be able to say ive tried."

both geoff and awsten looked at him with even more sympathy in their eyes, awsten still stuffing his gob with fries.

otto sighed deep, then heard footsteps coming their way. he looked up to see a woman in a black uniform and platinum blonde hair in a high ponytail. she smiled at otto. "hi im nadia. aziras manager."

otto smiled back, slightly intimidated by her confidence. "otto. thats geoff," he pointed to geoff and he gives a little wave. "and awsten." awsten looks up at the manager and smiled.

"yo, can you please tell me what you use to make these fries taste so amazing. asking so that god can put that shit up in heaven when i die."

"ah, so americans. aziras always liked them foreign." nadia eyed otto and giggled, making otto confused. he brushes it off fairly easy though. "how about, awsten was it? if you can get otto to do me a big favour, i give you where you can buy the salt we put on the chips."

ottos eyes widened at the offer, silently telling awsten of he accepts that he will gut him before the australian leg of the tour even starts.

after some pondering, it was really just awsten pretending to ponder, he screams "deal!"

otto groaned and leans his head into his arms, covering his face. he didnt know what nadia wants him to do and he was fucking terrified, to say the least.

nadia sat down with the boys and devised the plan theyre going to do.

so here otto is, waiting for the girl of his dreams to walk into a mall with her manager, his friends seated right next to him. he turned to awsten, giving him a look that screams "if this goes wrong im stealing your first born child and locking it in a tower."

before he can finish his glare, however, the two girls theyre waiting for walk into the semi-busy mall. both have changed out of their work untiforms and azira looks absoluely stunning.

she's wearing her doc martens that she wore to work, but her pants are gridded, one leg white with black lines and the other black with white lines. she's wearing a black tank top and for the first time, he is seeing her with her hair down in her face.

she looked gorgeous. he couldnt even tear his eyes away from her.

in the background of this, awsten was smirking at geoff, and geoff was smirking right back.

awsten had to nudge otto to text azira. he shook his head and pulled out his phone, texting her a small message.

nadia gets azira to look down and she leaves, giving otto the que to move. he hesitated at first but after awsten deadass almost pelted him at the table, he starts moving. he sits quietly and hears his phone go off. he knows who it is.

azira looks up, and otto can feel the air from his lungs being taken away as she stares straight into him.
