Meet Janine Adams, she is a shy person to be around and usually avoids human contact. Every week when school ends, she runs over to the book store near her school to buy books. As she was leaving to check out her book, she bumps into someone causing her to fall to the ground. Meet Ryan Frost, he is a family guy, no doubt about it. He will act nice around you until you do something wrong will all hell break loose. As he makes his way to the book store, might I add, the same book store as Janine, she crashes into him and falls to the ground. Feeling bad, he offers to buy her a drink at the coffee shop. Is this a start of a new friendship or more?

Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul
[Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...
