"Why didn't you say anything?" I asked.

"What good would it have been? I would've been the jealous friend" and with that she walked off to the restrooms.

Well she's right about that.

"But wait Shayna, I truly am sorry for what happened back there, I mean back to school first days are really memorable, I really didn't mean to make you feel awful" I said as we entered the restroom.

She sighed, "I guess I was a bitch to you as well Sydney, you had what I couldn't have, friends, and I guess my insecurities really led me to act so stupidly"

"I've dealt with worse" I lied. Shayna was so mean to me, I used to cry myself to sleep.

"And to clarify, I didn't get plastic surgery at all, I hit puberty late which is a hereditary thing, don't ask me how, and as for the friend thing, I was gonna ditch them anyways, I've always known Alyssa and Brianna were fake and that is why today I put brown food colouring in their smoothies, it would stay there for days" she said and we burst out in laughter.

After we cooled down she said, " The swimming team captain thing, is that true?"

I sighed, I saw this coming, "Yeah, I walked in on them twice, I'm sorry Shayna, I thought you knew, I mean to be honest your relationship with Mason was kind of toxic"

"I thought maybe I could change him, bring out the good in him, I thought wrong, thanks for the eye opener" she said, "Great, now I need a new personality, friends, and uhh..I think I can wait a little longer before I look for love again"

"I don't know about your personality, but I know where you can get good friends, come to my house, Friday night" I told her.

"You sure?" She seemed worried.

"Very, I hope this changes things between us" I said.

"We'll see about that Knight" and with that she walked off.

"So is that a yes?" I yelled to absolutely no one.

The rest of the day rolled out peacefully and before I knew it, Lena and I were headed to the Café.

I would be lying if I said I hadn't thought of a certain grey-eyed boy.

I hope he comes by today.

My shift started quickly and soon enough I was waiting on tables and doing clean up. Some of the kids from my school stopped by. My eyes were trained to the door in hopes that Damien might walk through them. Every single time I was disappointed.

The sun had set and soon enough we were closing up the store. He didn't show up. I knew I should've asked for his contact.

I cleaned the last table and went to the storage room to change and leave.

"Sydddd" Lena yelled.

"Yeah?" I answered.

"Where's the Invoice book?"

"In the second drawer beside the Coffee Machine" I said whilst tying my laces well.

"Kay, thanks"

I removed my apron and folded it nearly into a locker, "Sydddddd" Lena yelled again.

"What is it Lenaaaa?" I yelled back.

"Where's the sugar?, I want to drink something before we leave!!"

"You know where the sugar is, you forgetful shit" I yelled annoyed.

"I know but come show me" she yelled with an amused tone.

What could be so damn funny?
Why am I even annoyed anyway?

I grabbed my bag and stormed out of the storage room, " So help me Lena, if this is a prank it's not funny, you know I'm tired and it's been such a lo-"

Him.

He's here.

"Damien?" I was out of breath.

"In the flesh, princess" He gave me a full blown smile. It's really him!

"Wha..What are you even doing here?, I thought you wouldn't come and maybe I did something wrong and you wouldn't want to see me again so I was thinking 'why didn't I take his contact? I'm such an idiot' and it put me in a bad mood and I-" Lena cut me off.

What is it with people cutting me off?!

"What?!" I turned to her.

"Shut up, and say hi" Oh, she was saving me.

I turned back to Damien, "Umm, Hi?"

"Hey Princess" he said in a sweet voice.

"Umm would you like anything, coffee perhaps?" I asked.

"Oh would you look at the time it's almost 7pm, I have to uhh feed my pet unicorn, lock up after you're done Syd Byeee" and with that she ran off.

I hate her, but I love her.

"So I guess we're alone" He turned to me and said.

"I guess we are" I said back.

I started making Coffee for the both of us and set some pastries down which Damien thanked me for.

"So why do you work here if you don't really need the job, do you get paid?" He asked curiously.

"I love this place, it's like my second home, working here is stressful but for me it's a place of unwinding, I love the smell of Coffee and pastries and the customers here are so sweet. I don't get paid but I do get huge tips" I answered him.

"That sounds so nice, can I work here too?" And with that we laughed.

I took a seat next to him and texted my mom quickly letting her know that I'm serving the last customer and I'll be on my way.

What? I didn't lie, Technically he is the last customer.

"So tell me about you and what you do for fun Dami" I asked since I know absolutely nothing about him apart from his family and car.

He took a sip of his coffee and said, "Uhh well I'm Damien Luke Montenegro, I'm 19, I love black and white, my favourite band is Drax Project and I love to swim for fun, I'm the captain of my swim team and I love to play video games"

"Your life actually seems interesting" I countered.

"You have no idea" he said and we both burst into laughter, "come on, we better go before your mom throws another fit"

And with that I cleared up the mess we made and I locked up the café, my aunt, Lena and I all have keys so it's not difficult.

I hopped into his Audi and soon we were on our way.

***Author's note****
Our ship is sailing!!!!!

Important message
I have changed Damien's age to 19 and he'll be schooling at one of the school's in town, so that's a quick heads up, I realized that 21 was too far fetched and it kind of looks like bdsm.
