stephany's pov

as we walk toward the café it gets pretty awkward. this is my least favorite part of conversations. after the topic is over and there's nothing else to talk about you kinda just sit or stand there in an awkward silence.

then tobi finally begins to talk.

"so, if you don't mind me asking what in the world were you doing sitting on a bench in the rain?" tobi asks with genuine concern.

"it's kinda personal so forgive me for not telling." i reply

truth is. i have no clue. no clue why i decided to run off. and no clue why it was such a big deal i decided to sob about it on a public bench. maybe i'll find out one day.

"no, no it's fine i was just curious." tobi states

as we walk forward toward the café, tobi and i continue to have small talk. we ask each other basic questions such as 'what's your favorite color' and 'what's your favorite childhood tv show.'

after a few more minutes we can finally spot the café in the distance.

"hey look there's the café!" tobi exclaims

from where we are the café looks very small and humble. it looks old-fashioned as if it's from the 1980s

when you step inside the café looks exactly how you would expect it too if you were to judge it based on the outside. it's very small and humble radiating this peaceful vibe.

tobi and i find seats toward the back of the café and sit there. after a few minutes, a small waiter walks up to us. she looks about 17 with brown hair and dark brown eyes. it's pretty obvious she's new because she's shaking as she takes our order as if she's never done this before.

"h-hi i'm mya and i....i-i'll be your server for tonight. is there a-anything i can do for you?" she asks nervously

"hi mya. i'll just have a milkshake." i reply with a sweet tone

"and... i'll have a water" tobi follows

he comes to a cafè and asks for water?

"coming r....r....r-right up" mya says and quickly runs off

"so tobi, what exactly does sdmn mean? and just how big of a fan are you?" i ask

tobi laughs "bold of you to assume i'm a fan stephany. sdmn means sidemen, they're a group of youtubers, and i like to think i'm a huge fan." he replies then laughs again

"now it's my turn for a question" tobi says with a grin on his face

" do you believe big time rush paved the way for all successful boy bands?" tobi asks with a serious look on his face

"yes of course! boyfriend was and still is an absolute bop!" i reply with the biggest grin on my face

there it is. a grin. first a chuckle. then a grin.

mya comes back with our drinks. she hands me my milkshake and gives tobi his water. we say thank you and continue our conversation.

we continue to talk about stupid shit and eventually get into the debate about whether or no pulp belongs in orange juice. i personally don't mind a bit of pulp but if it wasn't in my orange juice i wouldn't miss it either. on the other hand tobi disagrees he HATES pulp.

while we are laughing tobi's phone goes off.

"hey can i take this real quick" he asks

"of course it might be important" i respond

he chuckles at that.

he answers the phone and brings it up to his ear. from the other end of the phone i can hear people screaming as if tobi just missed something important.

"sorry guys i got a little sidetracked i'm in my way now." tobi says into the phone and then hangs up

"hey is everything ok?" i ask a little disappointed. i was really.... enjoying myself.

"yeah it's just i was out so late because my friends wanted me to get some drinks. we're having a games night and someone forgot the alcohol. i need to get going i've already missed a few games of call of duty."

"ok no problem and have fun with your friends. also before you go i was wondering if i could get your number. i had a really fun time today and i was hoping we could do it again." i ask while blushing

"yeah sure of course! i had fun too!"

tobi and i exchange phones. he adds his name to my contacts and vice versa. afterwards, we pay mya and leave a tip. and just like that he's gone.

——————————————

so what do y'all think so far? hopefully, my story isn't trash

ok serious question do you like pulp in your OJ personally i don't mind it but i do know people who hate it

also can i just say i'm not from london i'm american if that wasn't already obvious. so, i don't know if asking strangers out for coffee in London is normal but where i'm from its 100% not so please don't yell at me :)
