It was two days later and I was lying in the middle of Harvey's room listening to their ramble and bicker. They were playing Mario Kart, and as always they can't stop bickering and cursed each other here and there.

"I'm bored," I said out loud, they both still pay no attention to me, so I took a deep breath in and let out high pitched yell.

"Reece, are you okay? Is something wrong?" Blake asked looking worried as hell.

"I'm bored, and none of you pays attention to me."

"Dammit Ree, I thought something bites you or whatever, what do you want anyway?" Harvey groaned glaring slightly at me.

"Coffee?" I asked innocently. Both of them groaned loudly but get up nonetheless. The three of us head out and walked down the road, the Sbux isn't that far from Harv's house so we just walk.

Blake opened the door and held it for Harvey and me, I smiled at him but he just shrugged it off.

"What do you guys want?" I asked looking at the menu although I already decided what I want.

"I'm just gonna get the usual Frappucino"

"I'll get the Candy Floss thingy, I dunno I forget the name" Typical Harvey. We waited patiently in the long line, and look around boredly, but still hoping no one would notice us.

"Hey Reece, isn't it that boy you keep rambling about?" Harvey asked pointing to the cashier.

Goddamn! The sex on leg was working in the Sbux I used to go and yet I've never noticed him before (other than our incident two days ago) or maybe he's new cause I'm sure as hell I've never met him before that concert and the past events.

Harvey nudged me again giving me a knowing look, I just nodded my head and all of a sudden he grabbed Blake's arm leaving me alone in the line. I waited patiently for the old lady in front of me to decide what she wants.

"Welcome to Starbux, what's your order for today?" The sex-god asked his eyes still not leaving the monitor. I cleared my throat a little then spoke up my orders. He typed it all and told me the price, eyes still not looking up.

I gave him the money, my hand feels like on fire as his finger brushed with mine. He suddenly looked up and both of our faces quickly heated up in embarrassment.

"'M sorry" He murmured.

"No, that's fine," I said casually trying to sound all cool and collected.

"Reece, isn't it?" He asked again, eyes looking shyly but his voice is stern. We've met a bunch of time and yet you still ask, really?

"Yeah, uh... I'm sure I haven't caught yours before?" I asked as casual as possible. He narrowed one of his eyebrows giving me a questioning look.

"Well I mean, we've met like five times, you know my name due to your cousin, but I've never get yours?" It sounds more like a question than a reason but he understood though. He gave me a small smile and stretched out his hand.

"George."

"Reece Bibby."

"I already know, silly."

"Oh, so we're on the nickname basis now?" I asked clearly shocked as the perfection in front of me just giggled like a schoolgirl as if it was nothing.

"I'll call you when your drinks are done" He smiled at me once again before yelling 'Next' so the customer behind me will come forward.

I walked toward Blake and Harvey and sat down in front of them, they both giggling at each other, looking at me a little then giggle again, what the hell?
