5 Things
o.O.o
Since she actually needed some coffee, she walked down the pretty tiles of new Rome and took a turn. There it was, in all its glory. She walked in, the bell dangling in the wooden door and smelled the welcoming aroma of coffee beans.
It was a small cozy place, with leather chairs and a bookshelf.
"Hello, what can I do for you today? "Asked the guy behind the counter. He had a forced smile on, which was completely understandable but she was grinning like there was no tomorrow.
Which was partially true.
She looked up at the menu above the counter and ordered.
"I'll have the iced caramel coffee, medium please."
As the machinery hummed, she ran her hand through the numerous books on the sleek mahogany shelf. Her hand stopped when she lingered over her favorite book, the art of war but she decided today was not for reading about horrible things. Instead, she let her hand wander to a book bound in blue.
The fault in our stars.
The title sounds nice. She thought. She read the first sentence and knew she had fallen for it, hook, line and sinker.
She felt herself melt into the book, and too soon, her coffee arrived.
She made a mental note to herself to buy that book while saying "Thank you," over her shoulder as she walked out of the store.
She made her way towards the brightly colored candy store and said good morning to the clerk. She bought a pack of jellybeans.
Then she went to her final destination. The bookshop.
It was a place crowded with books, some brand new and some that dated back to ancient roman times.
Luckily everything was in Latin, so she had no problem reading it.
She looked for a book in blue with the words the fault in our stars, and walked up to the cashier and bought it. She thanked the clerk and walked back to her villa. She poured the jellybeans in a black bowl, and started to eat it while drinking her coffee.
Most people would find jellybeans and coffee disgusting, but Reyna thought jellybeans went with everything, as long as it wasn't the yellow ones.
But a certain someone with blond hair and blue eye (remind you of someone) barged into her sitting room.
"Rey, you can't just eat jellybeans for your living." said Jason while sighing.
She raised one of her eyebrows and smiled, as if daring him to challenge her. "Oh really?"
"Yes really."
"Well then, congratulations to you." she didn't want a fight when it was the day before theme attack. Better to let people win. "Look, if you want the jellybeans, then just eat it, as long as it'd the yellow ones.
"What flavor are they?" He asked while sitting on the cushioned bronze seat next to her.
"Buttered popcorn."
"I guess I'll try it."
Then Reyna warned him not eat it, but he didn't listen. He was already chewing it.
"It's not that bad," he said to Reyna "for reals." And nodded his head.
Reyna had to stifle a laugh.
Then after a while of chewing, his eyes suddenly widened as he tasted the after-effects of the evil jellybean. He put on a gross face.
"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh. Tissue and water, TISSUE AND WATER!" by the end of the sentence, he was yelling.
So Reyna did the logical thing. She got him tissue and water.
He spit into the tissue, said ew, then drank water and said ew again.
"I bet you regret not following my advice, huh"
"No one shall't doubt thee"
Reyna shook her head in (playful) disapproval, and checked two things of her list, which was conveniently sitting on the elegant marble table in front of her.
Jellybeans? Check.
Coffee? Check.
Two down, three to go.
o.O.o
AN: The jellybean thing was based from experience. I was Reyna in that situation. The "Jason" spit it into a trash can. I also probably did more research on this chapter than I should have. :)
