Night Time, Our Time pt. 2

continuation !

"You remember when boss yelled at the intern for accidentally putting a cucumber in a drink?"

"Yeah, even though the customer was allergic to it?" (Y/n) remincisced with a smile, her cold hands hidden in her long winter coat.

Keith chuckled, looking away from her direction. "I actually was the one that put it there." He squeaked out, lowkey nervous on how she will react. His co-worker chuckled out; a breath of air evident in her laugh. "I knew it was you!" Playfully punching his upper arm, he laughed as well.

"I had a bad day that time. I drank so much beer in the janitor's closet that I didn't know what I was doing." He grimaced with a slight smile, "I felt bad for the kid." Keith let out a last breathy chuckle before a silence ran through them.

"How's (dog name) doing?"

"Ah, good. He keeps on lying around everywhere though. Probably because he's getting too old." She smiled, "How about Cosmo?"

"Keeps on going place to place. When I'm chilling outside my balcony I can hear his paws running everywhere." (Y/n) had a surprised and funny look at the dog's weird behavior, "A weird, yet unique dog." He hummed in response.

Just then, a cold chill of air ran through them like how Cosmo would run around Keith's home. "Eh?" (Y/n) took her hands out of her pocket, a small snowflake falling on her hand. "Oh? The forecast said that there wouldn't be snow today."

"The forecast is always wrong." Keith said, copying what his colleague did. "True."

The two remained on walking down the empty road, careful not to slip since they were on a hill. Both of them were neighbors so they always went home, but it takes about 20 minutes to walk home and 10 to go home by bus or bike. Too bad the bus was closed, and they have no bicycle.

"Hey, why you walking so fast?" (Y/n) asked, her soft hair flowing along with the cold winter wind. "We might get wet! Plus we don't have the right equipment for a snow storm!"

She smiled at her panicky friend, "So what if we get wet? Also, this is not a snow storm, Keith!" She chuckled as she slowly and gracefully jogged up to him. "What's wrong with getting a bit soaked in the snow?" She grabbed his hand, a slight shiver running down her spine due to his cold hands. "No, nope, we are not getting sick in this." He intertwined their hands and started dragging her down to some shelter from the 'storm.'

"Kei- Keit-!" She couldn't help but stutter out since they were going pretty fast down the slightly steep hill. Keith tried to look for some shelter, and was getting quite annoyed due to the feeling of the snow settling wetly on his coat and hair.

"Keith!"

She finally gained some power over his dragging form, pulling him to her direction with Keith in shock. "Don't worry about it! We'll just take a bath when we get home!" She chuckled out, concerned over his 'big' problem.

Sighing, Keith grabbed both of her hands. "(Y/n)-" She stopped his upcoming lecture with putting her hands on his rosy cheeks, "Chill." She smiled brightly at his wide violet eyes. 

(Y/n) suddenly grabbed his hands this time, putting one hand up, and guiding the other to her waist. Both of them had one hand up, while the other was holding each other's waists. "Dance with me."

The raven haired boy flushed pink at her suggestion, his lovely violet eyes widening at such a request. "(Y/n)-" He whined and before he could continue any further, she raised up to her tippy toes and pecked his whiny lips.

"Stop whining," She said with a small smile, her mind going wild on why the hell she just kissed him. "When do you usually see an empty road with a beautiful snow storm? This is the perfect opportunity to dance, Keith!" Her hair perfectly danced with the wind, making the bartender turn even more red at her porcelain facial features.

"Fine." He finally gave in to her funny request, a sigh coming out as he rested his forehead against hers. They swayed and did some small foot work whilst enjoying the snow and each other's presence.

(Y/n) smiled, satisfied with what is happening right now.

And so the two bartenders swayed against the snow, not knowing that they will keep on dancing with each other until they grow old.
