Have a Cappu"Ccino"

Regular Customer

Ccino looked around the room to see if the coast was clear, before proceeding to stuff marshmallows into his mouth. Don't judge him... marshmallows were good okay?! Suddenly the bell rung from behind him. Indicating that a customer had entered the cafe. Ccino nearly chocked on the marshmallow he was eating. He wasn't expecting someone to come into the cafe this early. Putting a smile and turned around the greet the customer, and to his surprise it was, "Nightmare, It's nice to see you again!" Nightmare looked a bit surprised but it quickly disappeared into a small smile. "It's nice to see you again as well... um..." Ah, right... he didn't tell him his name yet. "You can call me Ccino." Nightmare nodded before a thoughtful expression came over him. "Ccino...wait... Cappu...ccino..." Ccino giggled as the realization came over Nightmare. Nightmare pointed at the Ccino baffled at his name, "Your name... is based on a coffee..." The skeleton laughed and nodded.

Soon Nightmare became a regular to the cafe. Ccino would look up see the purple skeleton either writing or playing with Sansy. Not that he minded. It was nice to see a familiar face at the cafe. Soon he got a custom  to fetching the grinning blue cat for Nightmare. He was 100% sure that Nightmare only came for the coffee and the cats. He always saw the skeleton writing in his notebook everyday when he came in. He didn't know what Nightmare was writing in that journal of his, until he saw the content inside. Poems... turns out Nightmare was into poetry. Which led to Ccino suggesting to the poet to join Poetry Night.

"Poetry Night?" Ccino refilled the cup with a strong brew of coffee before nodding, "Yeah! I've always seen you writing poems in that notebook of yours, and I thought you might be interested in joining." Nightmare hummed to himself before shaking his head, "Sorry... I'm not interested." Ccino was a little bit bummed out about that, but he respected Nightmare's decision. And that was the end of that...  at least he thought it was.

Ccino was currently making a drink for a custom when the he heard the door open. Turning around he saw the purple skeleton walking towards him, "Nightmare! Sansy's probably in the back right now." He set the drink on the counter to go get the smiling cat, "I'll go get hi-" But Nightmare cut him off before he could even finish his sentence, "I'm not here for Sansy." Ccino blinked owlishly at Nightmare before tilting his head in confusion, "Oh." He laughed nervously, "Then what is it?" Nightmare took a deep breath before speaking, "Poetry night." Ccino blinked once and then twice before registering what Nightmare had said to him. "Oh!" Ccino's beamed at the other, "You're finally going to sign up for poetry night? I hope you don't mind, but I saw that you've been writing when you're here and I was hoping you'd sign up someday..." Nightmare shook his head and Ccino was left confused, "I don't want to read... I want to help out." Ccino stared wide eyed at Nightmare, "You want to help?" The skeleton nodded. That's nice but... he didn't want to bother anyone. Smiling at Nightmare he shook his head, "I don't really need any help, but thank you!" Nightmare shook his head, "I don't need to be paid." Oh... but... well if the other was so insistent on helping out then... "I guess you can help then..." Nightmare smiled widely, "I'll see you on Friday."
