"And then I met you" -Faraway

Noah

As Logan and I entered the café, we noticed that Cole was already there seated inside a booth close to the window. He had his elbow propped on the table while his fingers slide smoothly on the iPhone in his hands.

When he looked up he turned to our direction and we made eye contact, he smiled at me and I nodded in acknowledgement.

Once my brother and I reached the booth, Cole stood up and Logan gave him a hug.

He then turned to me. "Hey, you okay man?" Cole asked most likely referring to my eyes. They were still a little red from earlier. Nevertheless I nodded my head not wanting to talk about it.

All three of us finally settled down and were now seated inside the booth.

"Would you guys like to order now? I haven't ordered yet."

Logan looked at me and I nodded.

"I'm just getting the hot chocolate along with a croissant." I say. Maybe then I can finally figure out who is making the hot chocolate that I have been drinking.

Cole just gives me a smile in return. "I will have one as well."

"I will get the mocha latte with a slice of cheesecake to the side." Logan says while looking at the menu.

"I'll order then." Cole says before sliding out the booth and walking to the front.

Cole walks up to the front with a smile on his face. He waits in line before it is finally his turn. Luckily for him Gabriella is attending him.

"Hello, what can I get for you?" She asks while putting some cash inside the register.

Gabriella finally lifts her head up to look at the customer in front of her and her eyes widen in recognition.

"Hi, miss Gabriella." Cole says looking to the side of her chest to pretend seeing her name tag. He knew her name already, but he didn't want to seem like a creep. Specially, when they don't know each other. "Can I get two hot chocolates, a croissant, a chocolate chip muffin, and a slice of cheese cake." Cole stops and smiles before continuing. "But for the hot chocolate, may I request that you make one cup and someone makes the other. I know it seems weird, but I'm just trying to show my friend something. I hope it isn't too much."

Gabriella looks in thought for a second before nodding at him. She does not question him and simply agrees to do as he asks.

"Would you like the slice of cheese cake cold or fresh?" Gabriella asked. The café always made sure they had everything according to the customers liking. That is why they always made two of everything.

"Cold please."

"Alright, your total is $12.80" Gabriella says.

Cole grabs the wallet from his pocket and swipes his debit card.

"Would you like a receipt?" She asks.

"Yes, please."

Cole walks back to the table putting the wallet in his pocket. Once he arrives at the table he joins the brothers in their conversation.

"Hey, Amy the customer requested the two hot chocolates to be done by two different people so would you mind making the other one? Gabriella asks inside going deep into the back where they normally prepared certain drinks. Certain drinks were made in the front while others were made at the back.
