Last part for Mr. Holland, Enjoy!

You arrived at work. A small coffee shop in London.

"Good morning Mei." Mei was in her mid-fifties, short and plump. She had short kept hair, her face decorated with wrinkles telling her life story. Mei crossed her arms. She had a floral dress underneath her apron. She wore a bright pink lipstick and a pair of green acrylic nails.

"You're late."

"Mei-" she raised her hand. The corner of her lip curled into a smile.

"You were with your boyfriend, weren't you?"

"MEI!" you shrieked, smiling.

"Tell me everything."

"So..."

" No, not now!" She said playfully swatting at you. She pushed you into the employee room.

"Get changed and start making two batches of chocolate cherry cupcakes." You heard her heels clack away. You started to pull Tom's sweater over your head when your phone buzzed.

There was a bang on the door. You quickly covered you half-naked body with the sweater.

"Y/N ARE YOU DONE IN THERE?" Mei screamed.

"Almost!"

"Hurry I need the cupcake liners."

You quickly pulled the black t-shirt and apron over your head and tied the string around your waist

You quickly pulled the black t-shirt and apron over your head and tied the string around your waist. You picked up the hoodie and shoved it into your gym bag and threw it to the side. You opened the employee door with your hip while tying up your hair.

You were in the process of getting a Ph.D. [Authors note: I didn't specify what cause we all pursue different dreams ;)] and worked part-time at the shop. It was Saturday so you didn't have class, but you were going to hit the library and finish your papers. You poured the pre-mixed dry ingredients into the stand mixer. Mei doesn't trust anybody, she mixes all the dry ingredients and separates them into servings. You went to grab the margarine and coconut milk from the fridge. All of the cupcakes were vegan friendly.\

"Mei!" you called.

"Yes?"

"What type of frosting?"

"Double chocolate."

"Any allergies?"

"I think tree nuts."

"So just..."

"Marshmallows" you said at the same time. You giggled. Your phone rang, your ringtone is Like to be you. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9HQ-bC3g-Jw]

"Hello."

"Y/N?"

"Tom!" your voice went up a whole octave. You were speaking in your "cute voice."

"I miss you." He said. You smiled.

"Where are you?"

"Still where you left me." he said. You could see him smiling through the phone.

"I got to go before Mei kills me."

"Bring me back some of those strawberry shortcake cupcakes."

"Mwah!"

"Love you!"

"Love you!"

Some Hours Later:

He picked you up at seven sharp. He was wearing a hoodie that said, "Hotness" on it. He got out of his Porsche 911 and opened the door for you. 

"You're planning something I could see it on your face," you said.

" You'll see," he said leaning into the door kissing you. You kissed him back, sucking on his bottom lip. His hands went up to cup your face. You pulled away, flushed.

"We should go." He looked hurt but shut the door.

You arrived at the pier. You were confused.

"What restaurant is this?"

He just grinned and pulled over. He went to open your door, taking your hand. He led you to the railing overlooking the ocean. The sky was black, the air salty, you threw yourself onto the rails looking out at the pitch black sea. You went to turn to say something to him. There he was, on one knee. He opened the box in his hand, a beautiful diamond ring. You felt nothing, numb. Maybe that's what you're supposed to feel.

"Y/N, I want to spend the rest of my life-"

"No," you blurted. You saw his heart shatter.

"Not now," you added. He got up, he was red.

"We've been dating for a while- there's someone else isn't there?" He swallowed.

"NO-I just-I-I need more time." Your nose was burning, the world became cloudy. You were crying. He turned and gripped the railing rocking back and forth chewing on his lip.

"To-"

"NO! No...no...no Y/N you've been holding back, like-like you don't love me anymore."

"It's not like that..."

"So what is it!" he shouted.

"I DON'T UNDERSTAND! WHY ME?!" you couldn't help but yell back. He just shook his head.

"No... are you afraid?"

"Of you? No. Of commitment..."

He answered for you, "Yes..."

"You don't trust me," he said in a small voice.

"Tom..." you reached for his hand. He pulled away.

"I'm done." He walked over to his car, started it and drove off. Leaving you alone.
