A/N: Hey guys! I'm back with a cute fluffy drabble! Here ya go!


There's a girl who walks in almost every other day. It took him a second to realize it but once he did he couldn't stop.

She has curly blonde hair and a pretty smile and he vaguely remembers her coming in before. He's pretty sure she asked for a recommendation.

She makes a point to talk to him, or so he thinks, every time. He's not entirely sure, because he is kind of oblivious (or so he's been told) but he's not entirely hopeless so he has a feeling she's making a point of it.

It's a start anyway.

He goes along with it because it's fun and she's interesting and her attention is making him wonder what exactly his thoughts are on her. She's intelligent and funny and he likes their conversations.

He helps pave the way.

"How's it going?" He asks her, "Did you get that book you were telling me about?"

She smiles and lights up at his mention. "I did, can't believe you remembered."

She holds it out. "I plan on sitting here and reading for a bit actually."

He nods. It's a nice atmosphere, if he does say so himself.

"You must really like the coffee here," he jokes.

"Oh, I don't come here for the coffee," she meets his eyes, "I come here to talk to you."

And with that she grabs the drink he's made and walks off to the table leaving him shocked.

Turns out he wasn't too far off the mark. He admires her courage because as cool and pretty and interesting as she was to him he wasn't sure if he could have been that bold.

She's opened a door.

And he's not about to waste this.

Gathering himself he manages to convince his boss for an early break and quickly makes his way to her table.

She puts down the book she has barely had time to begin to look at him.

"You don't have to come here to talk to me," he says, "how does dinner sound?"

He's walked through and offered an opportunity.

The answer of course is a smile and another door with a plethora of possibilities.


A/N: So what did you think? Sometimes you just need to pave the way, or open a door to make an opportunity for yourself. You need to be bold and try to create a way, or if you see an open door, jump at the possibilities it brings. That's the main point of this little drabble anyway.

(Plus I wanted to do a coffee shop AU again, I have a longer coffee shop AU oneshot in my series How We Could Have Met 2 if anyone is interested!)

Also thank you to all those who have voiced an opinion on changing my name, I'm still on the fence about it but I have a way to do it if I end up deciding too. Also thank you to all of you who review too! I really appreciate your thoughts, comments and well wishes for the new year! You guys are awesome!

Please Review! I'd love to hear your thoughts! And as always, thanks for reading!
