Hello Everyone ~ Thank you, Thank you, Thank you for giving my story The Hot Barista a chance. This means a whole lot to me, so thank you. The reason why I put this story as mystery mainly because I wanted Will to be the mysterious type. I have noticed in a lot of Solangelo fanfics that Nico is the mysterious type, so I was like hey why not make Will take that role instead? So let me stop talking and let you read the story m'kay.
Enjoy~
Previously
The barista is hot..
" Hey its you." I heard his voice, I was face to face with the hot barista,
" You have pretty eyes, I thought I could never see your eyes due to the fact that you wear sunglasses all the time." He smiled,
" Thank you."
" No problem would you like the regular?"
" Regular?" I asked,
his eyes were so pretty, His face was so hot.
" Yeah, I have noticed you like to drink black iced coffee with four scoops of sugar." He smiled again, I stared at him in shock, my cheeks were probably pink by now, He gave me a weird look and leaned in closer,
" Maybe I can get your name, and maybe your number" He winked, if I didn't faint from that, then I don't know what would make me faint.
Now
Nico
" W-what?" I stammered as I tried to comprehend what I was told, he only smiled,
" I'll go make your coffee, to stay or to go?" He questioned, my heart was still beating fast from what he told me earlier, but I snapped out of it.
" To stay." I respond quietly, he nods his head and goes to make my coffee, I watched as he used the coffee machine, he grabbed a tall glass cup but pauses and glances over at me. I'm pretty sure my face was completely flushed out of embarrassment, he smiles in response
" Hey do you want a medium glass or a large?" He asked, I look around the room, I didn't want to hold up any customers, luckily there was only five customers waiting. I sigh of relief left my lips,
" Medium please." I say politely, he goes back to making my coffee. I paid up front because I knew the price of my coffee, I get all the time. I told the other employee what I ordered and she took it. I would go sit in my usual sit, but today I chose to rest on one of the booths, mainly because I was still a little tired. Once I settled I checked my phone, I got a few messages from my dad sadly, one from Jason weirdo, and forty three from Hazel. I smiled softly, she worries to much, I'm older than her I should be taking care of her, not her taking care of me. I was about to respond to Hazel's gazillion text, when the hot barista placed my drink on my table and gave me a straw, my heart started to throb, mainly because he didn't leave after that.
" Here you go." He smiled,
ugh that fucking smile,
He pulled up a chair from the table across the booths, turning it backwards as he sat down. I bite down on my bottom lip as He stared at me. His eyes are just so gorgeous, so blue and clear, I couldn't help it but to stare back at him. I felt so nervous now, I mean I always did but if I had my sunglasses, I wouldn't have to worry about him noticing me staring at him, but right now I don't have my sunglasses and he is just staring at me. I took a small sip of my coffee and broke eye contact but I still felt his gaze on me. Vampire instincts ,
" I still would like your name, oh I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. I'm Will" He grinned, I stared at him in shock, why would he even talk to me? Maybe there's a possibility...
No Stop it you dumb shit He's just being friendly. I realize I was too deep in thought, taking a small breath,
" My name is Nico." I smiled back a little awkwardly, my hands felt so sweaty, Will stared at me for a little bit before opening his mouth to speak again,
" Say is getting your number still on the table?" He asked, me being a little to literal I look at the table, Will lets out a small laugh.
" I don't mean it literally, I.. never mind." He said as he was about to get up, the thought of him texting me crossed my mind, my heart started to pound really hard,
" W-why?" I blurted out,
curse you stammering, Will gave me a puzzled look,
"Why?" He repeated after me, I bit my bottom lip softly, its now or never at this point.
" I want to know why you want my number." I stated looking at him, Will paused for a minute before leaning closer to me.
" Mmm I don't know, maybe I just want to get to know you. Or maybe it's because you're cute." He smirked, I stared at him in shock, he called me cute! Oh my god is he flirting with me?!
" I-I..okay" I squeaked, Will smiled at me,
" Great!" He beamed, I looked up at him, he was standing already, I mean that makes sense he has work, I don't want to be the one hold him up, I took my phone out and gave Will my number. He seem extremely happy that I gave it to him, but I was much happier that he even talked to me.
" I know our time was cut short, I'm sorry but if you can, do you think you stay a bit later?" He asked, Oh fuck he's asking me to stay I barely can get two sentences out, so I made up an excuse
" Ah s-sorry I have to go home soon. It's pretty cold outside and this sweater won't help much." I said smiling shyly, Will raised his eyebrow and he leaned a bit closer,
" Guess I will be taking break early." He said as he left, I thought he was really gone but he came back shortly and sat right next to me in the booths, my face was probably a tomato at this point,
" What are you doing?" I asked, Will laughed
" Oh sorry too close?" He asked getting up and then sat across from me,
" So Nico why do you only drink that coffee?" He asked, I bit my bottom lip, as I was going to answer his question my phone ringed.
" Sorry I need to take this." I said giving him an apologetic look
" Go right ahead." He said casually, I nod my head and answered my phone getting up to go to the corner, I didn't want Will hearing my conversation. Dread surfaced my body when I picked up the phone, it was my dad.
" Hi dad." I say quietly
" Don't 'hi dad' me you piece of shit, I'm kicking you out the house, I texted you for so long and you don't even answer me? What have you been doing anyway? You know what I don't care, come and get your stuff I don't want to see you anymore." He said sounding rather calm.
I would explain our troubled father-Son relationship but it's a long story, so to keep it short, my older sister died, my mom died and my dad held a grudge. He's acting like I killed them, it's not like he loved me anyway so I don't care. He sometimes pays attention to Hazel, it doesn't matter because Hazel has Frank and I. I hung up,
" Typical" I muttered as I glance back to see Will watching me, I blushed as I shuffled my feet walking back towards the table he was sitting.
" I'm really sorry, I have to go." I said not making eye contact, Will was quiet, I looked up to see if he was angry or showed any type of emotion. Will stared then he pouted,
" Well it can't be help." He said getting up, he gave me one more smile before leaving to resume his shift. I can't believe this, Will was pouting. My heart started to throb, I need to control myself. I drink my coffee fast, taking my umbrella with me I headed out the door. I walked six blocks until I reached my dad's house, I rang the doorbell and he opened it, with a scowl on his face he let me in. We didn't talk, it went like this, I got my old suit case, and packed up my stuff, I grabbed my backpack and put my creative stuff in it. It didn't take long after all I don't usually spend my nights here, I left with a large suit case and a backpack. I decided to go back to Hazel, maybe she will let me live with her. I took the long journey from my dad's house to Hazel's. It took me at least four hours, once I got there I was so tired. I wanted to cry but honestly, I couldn't my eyes didn't want useless tears rolling down my cheeks. I rang the doorbell, this time Hazel opened the door, she smiled at me, I gave her a weak smile. Hazel made me come inside without any explanations.
Hazel
I can tell Nico was hurting inside, I didn't say it, I would never say it but I can tell. He came back with a backpack and a large suit case, looks like he won't need to go back to Dad's place. Earlier he seemed so happy when he left, but now he came back with his eyes begging for tears to be released.
" Frank come help me!" I yelled, Frank came out of Victor's room,
" Babe I just put him to sleep, please be a bit quieter." He responded, I gave him a look and he shut up. He helped with Nico's luggage, I took Nico's hand and brought him over to the couch so he could sit down, I closed the front door and locked it during the whole process.
" Nico you can tell me if you want too, If not just rest here." I said sweetly. Nico shook his head no,
" Thank you Hazel for letting me stay. Um is it okay if I live here?" He asked, I rolled my eyes,
" Nico! You are my half brother, of course I would, even if you were just a friend I would, I love you lots." I said giving him a hug, Nico started trembling in my arms, something warm and wet was on my shoulder. Oh my god, he's crying, I stayed there and kept embracing him. Nico silently cried, he started to tremble harder, now he's really crying.
" I- I d-don't even u-understand why he h-hates me so much." He sobbed, I rubbed his back to sooth him.
" I don't either but it doesn't matter, you are with us now, you have Jason, Thalia, Frank and me." I stated kissing his cheek. Nico nods his head as small hiccups left his lips,
" I will go get you some water." I said getting up.
STORY BREAK:
Okay so lets drop the facts, since you are probably wonder "what the fuck is going on", lets get the characters down so far, whos vampire, whos not.
Nico: Vampire
Will: Human
Hazel: Vampire
Frank: Half vampire, his dad is human his mom is vampire
Jason: Vampire
Thalia: Vampire.
Okay so now you know. Now the relationship with Nico and his father is simple, Hades is blaming his son for the death of his wife and daughter, they died in a fire, fifth teen years ago, so yeah Nico is pretty old. So lets get to what you know now, Nico is going to live with hazel and Frank from now on, so he gets a new phone plan, because he's dad ends it with him. Now let's get on to why the humans don't mind the vampires, mainly because there is only two thousand vampires in Nico's region and also because all the vampires living there only drink blood when they find their partner or mate. So drinking their blood is like a claiming thing, However that's only in Nico's region, other vampires out of that region don't play by the rules. You'll pick that up later, and as for what they eat, is mainly meat, tomatoes, apples, strawberries, raspberries, and what6 they drink besides blood is wine, any type of red juice and coffee( mainly Nico). And also They can drink water.
STORY BREAK: OVER
I came back with a glass of water in my hand, Nico took the water and sipped it. I wrapped my arms around him cuddling him.
" Let's ignore the Dad crap and think positive. Let's talk about something else. Why are you always at the café?" I asked, Nico looked at me his eyes were puffy, and his cheeks were flush red. I stared then I gasped,
" No way! You have a crush." I said in a hushed tone, Nico looked away, there was a long pause before he spoke,
" Please don't tell anyone." He whispered before laying down onto the couch pillow, I nod my head. I got up and kissed his forehead.
" I promise I won't." I say, however, Nico was out cold sleeping. I smiled at how cute and peaceful Nico looked, I left him to rest and went to look for Frank. I found Frank fast asleep in our room with Victor on his chest, Victor always liked sleeping in his dad's arms, I laugh at that scene. I thought back to what Nico said and smiled,
" I wonder who the crush is." I muttered before quietly closing the door and leaving to go start dinner.
Hazel
After two hours Nico came into the kitchen rubbing his tired eyes, food was already made, I made spaghetti and Italian sausages instead of meatballs. I was sitting on a chair looking at the pouring rain when Nico crept in.
" Hey sleepy head." I smiled warmly, Nico gave a weak smile.
" Hello Hazel bun." He said as he took a seat, He smelled the food and grinned,
" Should I go get Frank?" he asked,
" No not yet, I want to talk to you." I answered, Nico gave me a puzzled look but nods his head,
" So who's this crush of yours?" I ask, Nico blushed
" I- I wouldn't call it a crush, I just think that person is hot. I...you know that I like guys, so um there's this guy, um his name is Will and he's really hot." Nico said blushing like crazy,
" So he works at the café, that explains why you always go." I said nodding my head then smiled,
" Nico as badly as I want to meddle, I won't I just hope this guy makes you happy." I grinned, I got up to go wake up Frank and Victor, when we all came back to sit down and eat, Nico talked to us a little but not a lot. I hope the guy he likes treats him right.
Hey hey hey, I am so grateful you like the story, I hope I can get reviews to let me know how this chapter went. In chapter three there is going to be something really interesting, but I won't say.
