All The Love Songs About You - Englot

Chapter 15: Can I text you?

Day 3 of the Festival.

3rd Person POV:
Erynn sat anxiously at the small table in the corner of the quaint cafe, staring out the window as she waited for Saffron to arrive. This would be the last time they see each other, at least for now since Erynn and the band has to go back home to London and prepare for their album. As for Saffron, she'll be staying here in Berlin with her mom.

As she watched the people passing by outside, Erynn couldn't help but think about all the memories they had made together. From these two days they spent together having fun and getting to know each other, Saffron and Erynn had shared so many experiences that made them feel like they've known each other for years.

Just as she was lost in thought, Erynn felt a tap on her shoulder and turned to see Saffron standing there with a warm smile on her face.

"Hey, did I keep you waiting?" Saffron greeted, taking a seat in front of Erynn.

"You're good, I've only been here for a couple of minutes or so. What would you like?" Erynn asked, getting ready to order.

"Croissant and coffee please."

"You got it."

Sitting back down after ordering their pastries, Erynn felt a pang in her chest knowing that this would be the last time she would see Saffron in a while. She's not even sure if Saffron wants to continue what they have or this was just some weekend fun for her.

Over cups of steaming coffee and bites of flaky croissants, they chatted about everything under the sun. From their first impression of each other up to the hotdogs they had yesterday. they tried to savor every moment of their time together.

As they finished their meal and prepared to leave, Erynn couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness wash over her. Saying goodbye was going to be tough, she grew to enjoy Saffron's company and conversations. And so Erynn knew that she would do anything to keep in touch. She'll be damned before she lets Saffron go just like that.

"Is it okay if I text you Saff? I mean I don't want to intrude on your alone time and everything but...can I at least greet you good morning?" Erynn gathered the urge to ask, torn between wanting to be respectful and keep her boundaries but also wanting to know more about Saffron and talk to her everyday.

"Of course you can Erynn! It's not like I'm going deep in the mountains to meditate y'know?" Saffron replied cheekily. "I'll have my phone all the time, we can talk."

"Ok..cool." Erynn said playing it cool but failing miserably to hide her shy smile and blush.

With one final hug and a promise to keep in touch, Saffron and Erynn left the cafe and started to make their way to their separate hotels. As they stood by the sidewalk together, saying their final goodbye, Erynn couldn't help but smile at the memories they had shared and the friendship they had built.

As she looked up at the afternoon sky, she knew that no matter how far apart they may be, they would always be connected by this weekend they shared.

(Day 6 - Saffron's been with her mom for 3 days now. )

Saffron sat on her bed in her mom's cozy apartment, typing away at her phone with a smile on her face. She was texting with Erynn, they haven't found time to talk to each other today until now. Therefore Saffron can't help but be giddy, she missed Erynn, that much is true.

She's been fond of Erynn after finding out about her band a couple of months back, and she's felt how sincere Erynn can be during their interview. But she wasn't prepared to find that Erynn was not only incredibly talented but also kind, funny, and easy to talk to.
