Fluff 6: Memories
The first time they'd met was at a coffee shop. Just like this one actually. TenTen glanced around the small shop, taking in the small book corner and worn, but still clean and nice booth cushions. She loved the smell of coffee beans in the air and traced the rim of her cappuccino, admiring the milk heart with dustings of chocolate. This looked like the cup she was mulling over when he came in, bringing in a gust of a chilly fall breeze. FLASHBACK: A few locks of hair drifted from her bun and she blinked, trying to get them out of her face so she could continue to write down her poem before it was time to get to class.
"One short cappuccino, dry, please." The musical voice made TenTen jerk her head up. That voice, she'd remembered a voice like that… in a dream? She covertly glanced at the man at the counter. He looked her age, wearing a buttondown shirt and jeans, with an iPhone peeking out of his pocket. His hair fell, close-cropped, down to his ears, swept by the wind. TenTen grinned and went back to her coffee. He seemed normal enough, but that voice… that voice seemed to seep into her soul. She shivered and went back to her drink, only to look up again when a shadow fell across her table. It was the guy again. He smiled slightly at her.
"Is it okay if I sit here?" TenTen blushed and nodded, wrapping her hands around the mug, perhaps hoping that the warmth of the coffee would slow down the beating in her heart.
"So, umm… do you go to college around here?" TenTen felt her voice die out as the guy looked towards her. It was obvious that he had not been paying attention to her words.
"Oh! Um, no I graduated last year, from NYU. Actually I just came by to visit my friend. He's a TA for a literature class." TenTen looked up again.
"You must mean Lee! Yeah, I'm that class, Lee's a great guy." The guy looked at her, curiosity visible in his eyes. He turned towards her, holding his to go cup and glanced outside. It was chilly and there were darkening clouds in the sky.
"So… I'm guessing you're in his next class?" TenTen nodded.
"Well, I'm headed that way and it seems like it's going to rain. Would you mind sharing a cab?" TenTen smiled.
"Of course not. Just let me put my cup away." She gathered her books and pulled on a soft white knitted cap that brought out the bronze tints in her eyes. They walked out of the coffeehouse and into a very windy day.
"What's your name?" END FLASHBACK
"TenTen?" TenTen looked up at the call of her name and smiled tenderly to the guy standing in front of her, holding a short dry cappuccino. She twisted the diamond ring on her finger and let her gaze fall onto the road outside. It was looking very windy today. She would probably have to take a cab to their apartment. Maybe he'd have time to share the cab there.
