"An americano, love. Two shots."
☕︎
Alice Valtýrsdottír, a reserved woman with dreams of being an art gallery director, encounters Aleksander Nikolovski, a brooding artist in the same art school, at the coffeehouse she works at.
While they seem different at first glance, one as subtle and sweet as a cappucino, the other as bitter and dark as espresso, they have more in common deep down. Just like their coffee choices, one has a dark side that is buried in shyness and one has a sweeter side that takes a little work to achieve.

Cuts and Coffee - Isak Valtersen
This story is about Isak Valtersen, who is a second year at the Hartvig Nissen Skole. He struggles with a lot of problems, including self-harm and suicidal thoughts. He feels like everything around him is fake and he feels trapped, like in a non-existent world. In order to hold on to reality, Isak cuts himself on a daily basis - always afraid that he's just an illusion that will disappear if he doesn't cut. To get a break from everything, Isak goes to a coffee shop once a week. He usually drinks a Cappuccino there and then leaves. But one day, a new barista delivers him his coffee. And said barista catches Isak's attention. Will Isak ever talk to that new barista? You will have to find that out for yourself! Enjoy! ---------------------------------------------------------- I'm so sorry about the cover, trust me, the second "e" from the word "coffee" is there. I don't know the measurements of the covers on here, so that is why it looks the way it does.Complete
Couldn't Care Less // Espresso x Madeleine // CRK
"𝘌𝘴𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰 𝘳𝘶𝘣𝘣𝘦𝘥 𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘢𝘨𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘷𝘦𝘭𝘺. 𝘛𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘵 𝘦𝘺𝘦𝘴. 𝘌𝘴𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳." Espresso has never cared for Madeleine. He often finds himself grouped with the cookie- just because they come from the same place. Everywhere he goes, he has to find Madeleine there. Two months after Espresso moves into the new kingdom, things start getting a lot more complicated. Espresso now finds himself in a position where he's dragged along as Madeleine's sidekick. Now comes a month of grappling with flattering cookies, socialization, and worst of all: feelings. I made the cover by the way! but the art on it isn't mine, it's official art.Complete

The Picture in My Locket
London's chilly weather has to be one of my favourites. Especially when walking through the streets at night with almost no one around. The silence of the empty city is only heard by one of my ears as I have one AirPod in. I finally go inside the pharmacy, making my way to the hair products aisle. Picking up a vanilla-scented pair of shampoo and conditioner, I head to the self-checkout. I pay for my purchase and walk out the automatic doors, bumping into someone almost instantly. The sound of a heavy object hitting the ground startled me and I look over to the person asking if they're okay, I'm met with the green-eyed gaze of a man who held my arm to help me not fall like the thing that was on his back, which looks like a guitar case... Is it broken?! - This story is based on the song "No One Knows" by Stephen Sanchez featuring Laufey. - Lana decided to enjoy her early 20s as a physical education student and just moved to London, but only knows Charlotte, a girl she met during a trip to the city almost a decade ago. When she arrived Charlotte introduced her to Owen, who has been her best friend since birth. Lana started working as a barista and met Isaac, a man who was classmates with Owen a couple years back, and is also her coworker who seemed to enjoy playfully hitting on her, or making her life a living hell, as she would say. They can't live around each other without their usual bickering sessions that seem to never come to an end, yet, they're in the same friend group. // *I don't write smut, so please don't ask me to :) // 02/01/2025 - #35 friendgroup 10/01/2025 - #27 coworkers 11/01/2025 - #24 barista 10/01/2025 - #23 suggestive 10/01/2025 - #4 gentlelove 31/01/2026 - #4 confessions![Café Romance [Completed]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/200453653-256-k469884.jpg)

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...

Masterpiece (Book One of Short Story Collections)
Markus, an up-and-coming New York artist, as up-and-coming as you can be when you don't show your work to anyone, has a strange fixation. On a woman. The same woman who walks past his house everyday, to the point she became the inspiration for his latest piece. She captivated him but he never expected it to go further than that. He never thought for a second that his roommate would submit his work in for a competition, he thought even less that he'd actually win. Now his piece, of a woman he doesn't even know the name of, is going to be shown for the whole world to see. And the last thing he ever thought would happen? Spark up a friendship with that same woman in a coffee shop, to the point his fixation on her exterior appearance becomes something more. He can only hope that doesn't get ruined when she finds out he's been obsessing over her for the past year. Hope being the key word. (3 Part Book)Complete
