Finding Love In A Coffee Shop
Ross's Pov:
"Alright you guys, I'll be back." I say grabbing my winter coat and hat since it's snowing out.
"Where you going?" Rydel asks plopping down on the couch with a smile.
"Coffee shop, want something?" I ask her and she nods.
"Hot chocolate please." She says handing me money and I roll my eyes.
"No need to pay. Tell the others I'll be back." She looks at me weird.
"You know Rocky, Riker, and Ryland are gone right?" I pause and look at her.
"Where'd they go?" She laughs.
"Remember? They went to Colorado for a concert to meet up with mom and dad?" Ohh, right.
"Psst, yeah I remember." She laughs and throws a pillow at my face.
"Get Ratliff a hot chocolate too please. He's on his way." I laugh and nod.
"Got it. Love you." I say and I walk out the door.
"Love you more!" Rydel yells from inside and I laugh. We have a good sister/brother relationship and I love it. Not everyone has it, so I am truly lucky. But anyways, I'm going to a place called "Everyone's Ordinary Coffee Shop." It's really good and it's only 5 minutes away from where I live. My family and I always go there when we can. They even have a small bakery and it's pretty cheap as well. I instantly see the shop and run right inside. What? It's getting cold. As I run inside though, I accidentally tackle this petite lady to the ground.
"Oh gosh.. Okay, this is new." She says and opens her eyes to find me on top of her. I blush and immediately get up while helping her up in the process.
"I am so sorry. I didn't mean to tackle you to the ground." She laughs and looks down at the floor where her drink is completely spilled.
"Oh shoot, I'm sorry about you're drink as well. Here, let me get you a new one." She laughs and tries to stop me.
"Stop, it's okay. No worries." I roll my eyes and order our drinks.
"Hi, can I please get 4 large hot chocolates and some homemade chocolate chip cookies." He smiles.
"That will be $10.50 sir and it will be ready in 5 minutes." I nod and pay.
"You didn't have to do that." I smile and sit down at a table and she joins me.
"But I did, I feel terrible." She laughs.
"Don't. But anyways, my name is Laura. Laura Marano." She says sticking out her hand and I smile while shaking it.
"Ross. Ross Lynch." She smiles and we let go.
"So tell me, Ross, why did you run right in here like a lion?" Laura asks laughing and I blush.
"Um, well you see, I kind of maybe was cold and excited at the same time. This is my favorite coffee shop." She smiles.
"This is my favorite too. I literally walk here almost every day since it's that close to my house." I laugh. Just like me.
"I do too. Only like 3 times a week though, life is crazy." She laughs and looks outside.
"I haven't seen you around. Who knows, maybe I'll run into you here sometime again." She said with a blush on her cheeks and I smile.
"Definitely. Actually, I know this is weird but can I ask how old you are?" She laughs.
"I'm 18 and you?" I smile.
"18." She smiles and puts on her coat. My order comes to the table and I thank them.
"Here is your Hot Chocolate and a fresh baked chocolate chip cookie to go with it." I say handing them to her and she smiles.
"Why thank you. I appreciate it." I smile and wave it off.
"No worries. Hey, can I actually get your number?" She blushes but nods.
"Sure, can I see your phone? Oh and here's mine so you can put your number in as well." I blush. I type in my number and hand her phone back to her. She punches her number in and gives me back my phone at the same time.
"Great, well Ross I got to go but hopefully I'll see you soon." She says standing up and I do the same.
"I do too. My sister will probably kill me if I don't make it back to the house in 5 minutes. I'll text you and we can meet up here sometime?" She smiles.
"Definitely." We walk out together and I hold the door for her. She thanks me and we face each other.
"Well, I'll see you soon. Bye Ross." I smile.
"See you later Laur. Be careful." She looks back and smiles.
"You too." I watch her walk away and she slowly disappears and I start walking back to my house with a smile. Laura sure is beautiful. I can't wait to see her again! I walk into my house and instantly see Ratliff chasing Rydel around in the living room.
"SHARING IS CARING!" He yells and she laughs hysterically but ends up tripping over her feet and falling onto her face. Now Ratliff being Ratliff didn't have a chance to realize what was happening and fell on top of her.
"Oh god Ratliff, get off of me." She groans and he laughs.
"Not so funny now is it?" He says with a smirk and I roll my eyes.
"Well if you two don't want your hot chocolates, then I will be happy to keep them to myself along with this amazing half dozen fresh baked chocolate chip cookies." I say with a smirk and they instantly get up and take their drinks and a cookie.
"WE LOVE YOU!" They say at the same time and I laugh.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, I know." I go to the kitchen and hang up my jacket and put my boots on the matt. As I drink my hot chocolate, my phone goes off. I see that it's a text from Laura and I instantly smile.
From: Laura
To: Ross
Hey, it's Laura! Meet me tomorrow around noon at the coffee shop! :)
She wants to meet with me, how amazing is that? Alright, I probably sound like a girl.
To: Laura
From: Ross
Sounds like a plan to me! I'll see you tomorrow! ;)
"Rydel and Ratliff, I'm going to my room! Please keep it PG." I say to them and they instantly blush.
"We're just going to watch a movie." Rydel protests and I laugh.
"I'll join in a little while. I'm just going to go relax for a little while." They nod and I go up to my room with my hot chocolate and the rest of the chocolate chip cookies. This is so good, I think I might order the same thing tomorrow.
