welcomed- jschlatt x reader

chapter 2

you slowly walked out to the table, not showing any signs of knowing who they were or that I knew them. as I got closer, I heard whispers and mumbles from the table. I was the one who spoke first,

"hello, welcome to [ ] cafe. what can I get you all today?"

...

silence.

you looked up from the notebook, seeing a grin from ted and Carson, and smiles and all the rest of the faces. 

except one.

you looked at the man, not realizing at first. he was staring, mouth slightly agape. 

it was schlatt.

you cleared your throat and repeated, "can I get you all anything?" 

jschlatt closed his mouth quickly and looked away. 

Carson spoke, saying, "anything you want to get us, y/n!" 

I laughed, saying, "alright then. don't be surprised if you find hot-sauce in your mocha, sir."

that made them all chuckle.

except schlatt.

I feel like I somehow made him upset, but I didn't worry about it.

"one moment boys!" and I rushed away. 

I told the barista to whip up 5 things random. and one normal coffee.

they did such, leaving the one normal coffee. I slipped it away, putting hot sauce into Carsons cup. 

I returned to the table, setting down the tray and laying out the drinks. 

the 2 last cups, I handed a whipped mocha to schlatt, he didn't make eye-contact with me but nodded in a thanks.

I handed Carson the.. surprise. he sniffed it cautiously, then eyeing me, looking for signs of trickery. he shrugged and gulped down a huge portion of the drink. 

almost as soon as he did that, he swallowed, then started coughing. I giggled as I left off to get milk for Carson. I felt a bit bad but it was his fault for trusting me. 

I came back with 2 cups of cold milk, and Carson downed the first one, immediately sighing and feeling better. 

"sorry! the barista must have messed up the order~" you strung.

"little shit! I knew there was something different with the coffee.." he coughed.

schlaft I could tell was on edge. he hadn't drank any of his whipped mocha, or anything. 

"ill be back with the bill!" 

I could hear Ted and them teasing Carson about the stupid coffee.

I came back with the bill of 11.48. Travis payed, laying the exact amount of cash in the bill case and handed it back to me. I thanked him and left to go put it in the register.

as I returned, it was around 9:45 and my shift was ending early, at 10 today. 

they were standing up and starting to try to figure out where to go, and I saw how freaking tall they all are.

schlatt.. goddamn. 

---

A/N: your around 5,4 - 5'6 , short baby

---

he was.. scarily tall. around 6'0 to 6'2 id presume. 

they turned around as they saw me returning.

"hey y/n!" ted said.

"what's up?" I asked, turning to him.

"when are you off? we wanted to go to this arcade. it has neon lights and stuff, it looks pretty cool. we could also record lunch club stuff. " he said, aiming the last part mostly to the boys.

"im off in around 25-30 minutes. I know where that arcade is, ill meet you guys there. don't wait for me." I responded. 

they all nodded and left the cafe. I sighed, going to the back. I started making sure I had all my stuff, my phone etc. I couldn't find my phone and I thought I might have left it on the table. I rushed back, not looking ahead of me, walking into a solid frame. looking up a gasped lightly, seeing schlatt looking down at me also. he was holding my phone, and he said, "here. don't let some other bimbo take it." he shoved the phone into my hand and left the shop. I didn't even get a chance to thank him.. 

-- 

time skip, like 15-20 mins

-- 

you headed out of the shop, hair fixed and went for the arcade. it was around 10:05 now, so perfect time. you saw the arcade from a mile away, the lights on the sign were very bright. 

you walked in, and were blinded for seconds because of the bright light. 

--- 

sorry for this, but another a/n: your very clumsy, always running into things

---

after a bit of blind speed walking, you ran into what felt to be a solid pole.

you fell backwards, immediately getting a headache. you kept your eyes closed for a couple of minutes, still laying on the floor. it was starting to get darker until you got a light slap on the face. you opened your eyes, headache pounding your head and getting worse from the bright lights.

his eyes turned from worried to even more worried once you opened your eyes with a painful looking glare. 

he gasped, scooting you ever to rest your back onto the pole you ran into. 

"are you okay y/n?!" he whisper shouted

"I don't know.. my head hurts a lot.." you whispered back. 

"can you walk? we can go back to our hotel. I don't think your fit to drive home tonight."

"I think your right.. where will I sleep?" you asked.

"one of us can give up our bed and sleep on the couch. unless you want to share a room, which I wouldn't think you'd want to do." he stated. 

you just hummed in a response, trying to stand up. your head pounded even more, making you sit down again. 

"I would carry you but im.. kind of.. weak." he said.

"its fine.. ill get it soon enough." I said stubbornly.

"its not! ill get schlatt or travis to carry you. their tall." he said, rushing away before she could respond. 

you groaned, closing your eyes. you felt yourself drifting off until you felt yourself being picked up, like a baby. you peeked open your eyes, seeing schlatt with a unreadable face. you inhaled lightly, closing your eyes and burying your face into his shirt. your head was starting to feel better, and you felt yourself being taken outside. you were set down on a bench and you opened your eyes, looking for the warmth that left your body.

you saw him sit down on the bench next to you, then saying, "they will be out soon." se said nodding to the arcade.

"o-ok.." you said.

you felt tired still, and cold now because I was outside.

without thinking you leaned over and rested your head on schlatts shoulder. you felt him tense at your touch, but relaxed after a couple minutes. you felt your head relaxing and it getting darker.. and you fell asleep at last.
