Working late (Open)

[luke]

<sup>Stephen didn't mind this job, it was fun and alot of hot girls came through the doors and nice people, lots of people he knew.

It was getting late, Starbucks was closing in about half an hour at 5 o'clock, he was wipping some of the empty tables clean, he and his friend Alice were working today, but she had gone out for a quick dinner so he was working alone.</sup>

[Carmen James]

Carmen had a craving for something hot, so she walked to Starbucks. As she opened the doors, the aroma of vanilla and coffee mixed in the air. She walked up the counter. Waiting in line, she looked around to see if she knew anyone. She then noticed Stephen and smiled.

^{Stephen looked up realizing someone was in the line, he put the cloth in his back pocket, it hanging out slightly, he rubbed his hands on a towl and turned to the girl, his checks turned red as he saw the girl who he had a slight crush on.
"Oh heya, what would you like?" he asked her, smiling, at her, and trying to make his checks stop going red.}

[Carmen James]

"A french Vanilla Cappuccino please." she said smiling at him. She noticed the slight blush that had risen to his cheeks. "So how has your day been?" she asked him while he was getting her drink.

[luke]

^{Stephen grabbed a cup and started to make her drink. He wipped a bit of sweat from his face as the hot steam rose to his already reddened checks.
He looked back at her, his eyes watering slightly from the hot steam. "Not as busy as normal, Alice who works for me went off for a dinner, so I've been left for the last hour but I don't mind. It is not as busy at this time so its alright. he said smiling at Carmen, she was a really nice girl.}

[Carmen James]

"Oh that sucks. Its cool that you don't have many people coming in at this time." she said. "Are you okay your face is a little red?" said Carmen. She didn't think about the heat or steam coming from behind the counter because she wasn't that hot at where she was.

[luke]

^{Stephen felt his checks, they were red. "Oh, its just the steam and heat from the machine." he muttered, half of that was true and half wasn't. He grabbed quickly finished pouring the drink into the cup and handed it to Carmen, saying. "Thats $3.20. I can't get used to this American dollers, its way more expensive then in England." he said laughing slightly and then stopped realizing he was ranting on abit too much.}

[Carmen James]

Carmen reached in her pocket and pulled out her money. Flicking through it she hand him the right amount of money and shoved the rest back in her pocket. "So when do you get off work?" she asked him.

[Ryuu James]

[hey, mind if Ryuu butts in? I like three way rps o3o]

[Carmen James]

I dont mind if stephen doesnt.

[luke]

^{Stephen looked ar his watch, "In about half an hour. We close then.""I'm back tommorrow for a couple of hours."}[/b] Stephen said, leaning on the counter and watching her, wipping the sweat from his face with a towl, "it gets really slow around now, theres normally just two or three people in here." he looked towards the window it was indeed getting darker.[/sup]

[Carmen James]

"Well then I will stay and keep you company." said Carmen smiling. Carmen thought he was cute so she was willing to stay and talk to him. She noticed he was still sweating. 'Think I'll buy a fan and give it to the manager to put back there.' she thought.

[luke]

^{Stephen grinned, "Thanks!" he said and grabbed a glass and poured some water for himself at the tap, sipping it and leaning on the counter, "How have you been?" he asked her, he thought she was cute and loved being around her so much, it made him lose the thought of Addie.}

[Ryuu James]

//- Freak out. Eins, zwie, drei, come. Yeah, can you feel it? -\\

Ryuu ran down the road, taking a last drag at his cigarette and tossing it into the gutter as he stumbled to a stop and walked rather calmly into Starbucks. He grinned sheepishly at the guy at the counter, he probably wasn’t expecting anyone this late. Winking at Carmen, he walked up to the counter.
“One espresso please, black,” he panted, pushing a $5 dollar note towards him. Leaning on the counter, he pushed back his hair, still panting.
“Didn’t think I’d make it before you shut. Are you guys open later now or something?” his voice was slightly obscured by his breathlessness, but he grinned all the same.

//- Its alive, got a phone message call from your sister love, and she likes to pretend that she taken -\\

^{Stephen looked up as the door opened and saw a boy come in, his year by the looks of things. "Yeah, we open til five now." Stephen muttered and turned to the machine again, starting to make the drink.}
