Dexter pov:
I did not have a good day, far from it really.
First my 'loving' brother stole my breakfast claiming that he needed it more than me, so I didn't have any breakfast since my parents naturally didn't say a word and just let it happen and it's not like I could have stopped him.
Second, school. Just school. Usually I loved school, I actually loved the work and the teachers, but practically all of the other students either hit me or mocked me for being well, a geek and of course there was Steph.
I knew she was avoiding me all day and when I tried to talk to her she ignored me so her friends wouldn't see her talking with geeky Dexter.
I knew her being nice to me was all a facade since I helped her with her homework, that didn't mean it didn't hurt, but that's how I found myself walking twords the coffee shop Steph worked at, I thought she might talk to me if her friends couldn't see us together.
I knew no one from out school woukd dare step foot into the "geeky coffee shop for losers" their words not mine, but I liked the place well enough even if I haven't been there in a while and that's how I found myself in front of a coffee shop with the weirdest name ever 'Cyberspace coffee'
The shop was a mixture between a coffee shop and a comic shop, there was all kinds of merchandise on display.
I hesitated before walking in to the shop, what if Steph didn't want to see me? With a small sigh I hesitantly walked in and looked around, it honestly wasn't all to bad, it wasn't somewhere I would want to hang out, to many people for that, but it was nice, it was definitely different from the last time I was here.
The lights were low creating a calm atmosphere, the walls were the same colour as my computer screen, light blue, so I felt at ease until the noise hit me, the customers were loud, they were shouting about their favorite TV show or comic book some getting into fights about one thing or another plus music seemed to be playing so I decided I was going talk with Steph get my coffee and leave as soon as I can.
When I looked twords the till I saw Steph was making coffee while someone else worked at the till and if I wasn't mistaken his skin was a light shade of blue, I decided then I wasn't even going to talk to Steph, I was going to get out as soon as possible besides Steph was working after all so she was probably to busy to talk to me anyways.
I waited patiently in line not caring when someone cut in front of me, I was to scared to say anything so I kept my mouth shut until I reached the counter.
"So what would you like to drink, kid?" The very loud, very cheerful man asked making me huff annoyed at being called a kid, I was just short!
He was smiling like a lunatic as he held a coffee cup in his hand, but even though he seemed nice enough I still couldn't help, but to shrink back from him, he reminded me to much of the bully's from my school, with well everything.
He was taller than me and clearly stronger than me, the way he towered over me, so I was a little bit intimidated by him, but I couldn't keep my mouth shut.
"I'm not a kid." I snapped, but he ignored me choosing instead to tell me about the coffee
"I heard the cappuccino it the best!" He was still smiling as he said it, I nodded not really sure what else to do, since it was clear he was going to ignore whatever I said, but decided I wasn't going to get that
"Black coffee, no sugar." I said with a shrug "Please." I added in an attempt to sound nice, but for a moment I was scared he didn't hear me, since someone turned up the music, but with the way his smile grew, something I didn't think possible, I'm sure he did.
"Now I just need your name." He said holding a marker to the coffee cup he was holding, I wasn't sure where he got it from, it seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
"Dexter." Steph said for me, but he didn't seem to hear her
"What?" He asked loudly trying to be heard over the music, I opened my mouth to answer myself this time only for him to cut me off saying "Never mind." while waving his hand dismissively before writing something on the cup so I stepped out of line so someone else could order while I waited for my coffee, luckily someone turned down the music creating to some extent silence.
"Um, hi Steph." I greeted while I waited for her to make my coffee, unsurprisingly she ignored me, I resisted the urge to sigh and leaned against a wall pulling out my phone
"Dexxy-" I heard and turned to look at Steph who held my cup of coffee and watched as she turned to the man behind the till glaring at him coldly
"Dammit Frederick I'm not reading that." She practiced hissed at the barista - Fredrick - behind the till, who just shrugged before turning to me
"You can just call me Freakazoid." He said with a wink in my direction, I was confused and took the cup from Steph who looked annoyed
'you're a-dork-able' stood on the cup and I'm sure I must have been as red as a tomato - or the uniform Fredrik, I mean Freakazoid, was wearing - and quickly left, I wasn't sure if it was a compliment or an insult, usually when I'm called a dork it was a insult, but this seemed almost like he was flirting with me, which was impossible. I'm just a geek after all.
Freakazoid pov:
I had a large smile on my face as I watched Dexxy leave and watched as he practically ran away from the shop. His face completely red while he did so causing me to chuckle as I switched places with Steph who was looking at me unamused.
"You're going to get fired one of these days." She said bluntly, I snorted at that, I doubt I'll ever get fired, I was the owners favorite after all and besides I couldn't help myself, he was just so cute!
Large brown, almost black eyes I could hardly get glimpse of thanks to him looking at his feet most of the time, his messy brown hair and his baggy clothes that just made him look so small! He was just so adorable and the way his cheeks puffed out in anger was just adorable, I couldn't just let such a beautiful stanger go without making an impression! I couldn't just let him forget me.
"He'll be back." I said confidently ignoring Steph who rolled her eyes clearly not believing me.
