Just a Small Town Boy and a City Girl

Authors note:

Okay so this is my first fanfic ever, so I'm sorry if it's not good. Everything gets written from my iPhone so sorry for any mistypes!

Just to put it out there, I'm a freshman in highschool, scholars classes, and in Cheerleading so I'm very busy. I might not be able to update very often but I will try my hardest!

I'm not expecting many reads or votes so if you do, thank you very much!!💗

Anyways, enjoy !

My name's Cindy. Cindy Lipton. As you can tell from my last name, my dad invented the tea. It made us extremely wealthy. So wealthy that we were able to move out of a crummy little apartment 5 years ago and now live in a loft in Manhattan, aka "The City That Never Sleeps". But just a week ago, something terrible happened...

My dad lost the company... Turns out that nobody really wants Lipton tea anymore now that there's Arizona tea. We went out of business. Lost all of our money. Had to sell the house and everything. And to top it all off, my dad then died of a heart attack yesterday.

Now, my mom and I just moved to a small house in a small city in a small town in Kentucky. KENTUCKY!! Nobody fucking lives in Kentucky. It's like the forgotten state. And now I'm gonna be living there for the rest of my life.

So life's been pretty crappy.

"So here's the deal sweetheart, now that we've finally settled in, we need to find job."

"Okay good luck, mom." I say, watching some show on tv. It's a cartoon and these two animals are hitting each other on the head with different objects. Soooo boring, but there's nothing better on since we can't afford cable. I am NOT used to this.

"I don't think you heard me right. I said WE as in both of us."

"Wait what? I have to get a job? But, but, that's work!"

"Yes and you're gonna have to get used to it. This is the way we're living now and you're just going to have to deal with that fact."

"Ugh fine, let's go."

We grab our coats, since it's mid-October and chilly over here. It's actually warmer compared to what the temperature currently is back in New York.... Oh, New York how I miss you!

We start walking, because the town is so small and I actually want to go see what there is here. I haven't really been out yet because my mom has been the one to go out and buy the groceries and everything.

Okay, somewhere that the work would be easy but the pay is not bad.... a grocery store... a convenience store.... a dry cleaners... a bakery... an antique store... Wait, did I say bakery?

I stop in front of the cutest little bakery you will ever see. It's decorated to look like a gingerbread house, with fake vanilla frosting outlining the door and windows. As I walk inside, I immediately notice the inviting smell of freshly baked sugar cookies. Yum! There's only about four tables, with four chairs per table. The table was colored to look like a gumdrop and the chairs looked like jelly beans. It all just looked so adorable!

Speaking or adorable... There's this boy working the cash register behind the counter. If this is what Kentucky boys look like here, I might just end up having a reason to want to stay here!

He had curly brown hair that swayed ever so slightly every time he moved. He seemed fit too, he must work out. Probably lifting flour sacks haha. His eyes were emerald green and had a little sparkle in his right one. I watched his luscious lips as they moved, they were the perfect shade of a pale pink. He was absolutely flawless, not even a single blemish on his face. If I find out he's gay, I'm going to have to ask him how he gets his skin so perfect.

"Um excuse me miss, are you going to order, or...?" he said. I hadn't even realized that I had been slowly walking from the door towards him.

Oh god. What am I gonna say? I must've been staring at him this whole time like a lunatic. Crap.

"Uhm... I was wondering if you had any...erm.... Open positions available....you know, for a job...to uhm, work here?"

I must sound like a fucking idiot to him.

"I don't know, i'll go ask....but I'm pretty sure we do." he said as he casually smiled at me before turning away to walk to the back, having one of the other cashiers take his place behind the counter.

"Next in line!"

I really hope I get this job....not for the boy....for um, the money? Haha yeah, the money!

There's no point in lying to myself,

I need to know his name.
