That morning the streets of New York were desolate, bathed in an intense rain that only seemed to get worse. The thunders mixed with the sound of the traffic and one than other new yorker insulting a random person in the sidewalk to then disappear in the distance, their bodies filled with rage and covered in water drops.
Idina was one of them, insulting the weather for ruin her expensive boots and hair, having to walk under the storm to reach her destiny: a small vintage coffee shop. It was crowded by people that either wanted pass the storm or get a hot cup of coffee, making impossible for the brunette to reach the counter when she got there, hair incredible wet despite her efforts to keep it dry.
"The weather is a shit today", the barista in front of her said, somehow a smile on her face.
"You didn't have to walk under the rain", Idina too her purse to reach for her debit card, knowing exactly what she'd get, "Can I..."
"Get a tall caramel macchiato with extra cream please, and a chocolate muffin?", the barista completed her order, reciting it from memory, "Sure".
"You would never change, wouldn't you?"
"Not when my girlfriend is the most predictable person in this shop".
Idina blushed at the G word, leaning in to let Kristen steal a quick kiss from her lips and smiling after they broke it. The brunette hide her smile by biting her thumb, Kristen loved when she does that, always finding excuses to make her smile shily.
"I'm also the luckiest in this shop, don't forget that".
They both have had begun to date after they confessed their feelings for each other that night, almost one year ago. And the routine of Idina of come to the coffee shop intensified when the blonde accepted to be her girlfriend, being hopeless in love with her.
She truly was, loving the way her relationship with Kristen was, a complete different experience compared with her ex husband, and soon the blonde helped her to accept the things Taye hated of herself. The things she used to think she should change for good.
She got her order from her girlfriend, taking a seat near to the counter to spend hours staring at her vibrant face while attending the shop. Idina would never get used of that, and with everyday that passed the confidence inside her grew up higher and her love for Kristen get strong and strong, finding herself safe in her arms, loving the way her voice pronounced her name in the morning and her soft kisses before sleep.
Idina smiled at the blonde, her heart going faster when Kristen smiled back.
She never thought she'd found love by simply stepping into a vintage coffee shop.
Fin.
