9:30am
Y/n POV

I woke to my alarm going off. I turn it off and look over the my phone and see on still on the phone with clay. I can here his short even breaths coming though giving me butterflies.

Sadly I had to hang up to get ready for work. I texted clay telling why I had to go and got up to go to the kitchen to make some coffee and toast. Then I got in the shower and got dressed. So eventful right.

On the way to little corner cafe ( where I work) I passed the park with the usual old couple walking along the greenway and few little kids swinging with their moms taking on the bench. It was sunny but windy so it felt nice.

It was Saturday so I had to go in earlier than usual. It's a cafe so there's quite a few people in the mornings and during lunch. It didn't pay much but it was enough and I got money from streaming sometimes. I wasn't to big a streamer just about 1k viewers average. No one really knows about it though because I'm faceless. Only Allison. I hope she visits soon I really miss her

I was cut off by my thought when I noticed I was almost there. I walked and was greeted my mrs Jess,my boss, she was more like a mother figure to me. I did really love her.

"Y/n, honey good morning. I need to take care of tables 3 and 6 please. It's quite packed this morning."

"Yes ma'am I'm on it" I say with a smile and got to work.

Time skip to 12:50

The later it got the more anxious I was. I had forgotten about me and clays deal from the night before - oh my god. Hes going to see me. I really didn't think this through. I mean I'm at work I look terrible. Mrs Jess and so going to grill me later. -
My thoughts were interrupted but mrs Jess telling me to take one more tables order before my break. Table 4.you'll never guess who was sitting there.
Fucking Marcus.

"Mrs Jess I don't think I can take that one." I said nervously. She could see how anxious I was almost immediately. "Oh. Oh I see. I didn't realize who it was I'm sorry hon just go ahead and take your break I've got it" she says with a sad smile
"Thank you" I reply

Soon after I walked out the front door on the cafe hoping Marcus wouldn't see me. I bump into a tall dirty bold man with emerald green eyes. " oh my god I'm so sorry I wasn't looking where I was going" I said frantically. " hey hey it's okay are you hurt" he says.

As soon and he spoke it clicked. That was clay.
"Clay?"
"Debra.?or should I say y/n" she says with smirk reading your name tag on your apron.
"Oh yeah haha..anyways let's go somewhere to get lunch"
"Why I thought we were gonna eat here"
I thought for a second

-there's no way I'm ready to tell him about Marcus but he going to find out either way right? I could tell him it's to busy? No there are windows he can see that it's not. We are in public maybe Marcus won't do anything if he sees I'm with someone-

"Oh yeah I forgot let's go" I hesitantly said
"Okay"he says weirdly

We go inside I make eye contact with Marcus. His glare could cut you like a knife right now, but he doesn't get up he just watches us walk by. We found a table far from Marcus and sat down.

"So I never knew this place even existed. What do you recommend my darling Debra?" Butterflies, oh so many butterflies. "I'm well the Carmel mocha is really good if you like sweet things but double shot espresso if you don't. Oh but the silted Carmel mocha frappe is really good for sweet and salty. Food wise we have really good chocolate croissants. Oh but the donuts are just great. I really like the breakfast burrito myself thought. But if you want lunch they have really good BLTs or soup." I ramble
