"I'll take a turkey chipotle wrap, no peppers," He called to the girl behind the counter. "To go." He was tall, with long sideburns, and designer glasses most people would kill for. He looked around the tiny gourmet deli and smirked to himself. Today had been a great day: he had a great night's sleep, Hank and Div were away on a routine checkup for a client, and he was going to tee off with Paige in an hour. He took a sip of his latte, burnt his tongue, and nearly spat his coffee all over himself and the floor. He didn't let it bother him. He was bubbly and was not going to be bursted.
He got his turkey wrap and left, headed seaside to eat. He blew on his latte and took a second sip. It was ok! So he took a gulp.
A large, hot gulp. A horribly huge, lava temperature gulp. A burning gulp that was spewed out of his mouth like sprinkler.
"AAAH!" Screamed a girl he was standing next to. He opened his eyes to see a short girl with curly brown hair, mouth and eyes wide. The poor thing was covered in coffee. Evan rushed to help her.
"Oh my goodness, I am soooo sorry!" he gushed. "I- I'm so sorry, hang on, lemme-" The girl was trying to wipe the stinging liquid off her face. Evan pulled his sleeve down a little and tried to wipe her face off. As soon as he was done, she turned her hazel eyes to her blouse.
"Oh no," she mourned. "It's ruined." All Evan could do was stutter out another apology. She sighed, and looked up at him. "Hot coffee?"
"Uh, ah, yeah." His face was flushed. She looked young, very young. Possibly teenage.
"Happens to the best of us." She shrugged. She looked down, realizing she had dropped her small, lime green handbag. She bent down to get it, then popped up spryly.
"Listen, there's gotta be some way I can make it up to you," He began. Her eyes seemed to flutter. Evan was about to say something about it, but suddenly she collapsed to the ground. He dropped everything an knelt next to her. "Hey. Hey! Can you hear me?"
He rolled her on to her back. She wasn't moving. Evan got on his speed dial as fast as he could.
"Hank? Hank, I've got a medical emergency!" He paused to listen. "No, it is not me this time!"
