Lee pulls out his money to pay for her coffee, and she rolls her eyes and smiles at his gentlemanly behavior. "You're ridiculous, you know that?" she says.
Lee grins, and she watches how the muscles slide over his sharp, lovely jaw.
"Name, please?" says the barista.
"Starbuck," says Lee.
The barista looks confused, and Lee repeats Kara's callsign.
Kara guides him to a table with a hand on his elbow. "You asshole," she says under her breath as he sits across from her, grinning.
A few minutes later they call "Starbuck's," and the other patrons look around, confused. Lee's nostrils flare as he holds back laughter. Kara stands to get her coffee and leans across the table, her lips just brushing his ear. She hears his soft intake of breath. "Next time I pay. Apollo," she says with a deadly smile.
A/N: Written for a friend for a writing exercise. The prompt was simply "Starbuck." If you liked it or particularly didn't, please drop me a thumbs-up or a thumbs-down! Thanks for reading!
