awsten woke up at the time he always does. 9:15 am. he texted otto, trying to get a ride to the coffee shop down the street. he normally walked, but it was quite cold outside today and he didn't really want to walk in the cold. in the 15 minutes it took him to get ready, otto didn't text back. awsten assumed the long haired boy was still asleep. awsten looked in the mirror, fixing his bright green hair once more before grabbing his hoodie and walking out the door of his apartment. he put in some headphones, listening to 'strawberries and cigarettes' by troye sivan as he walked. when he entered the coffee shop, he stood in line. he took out his headphones, and went to look at the menu, when something else caught his eye. a tall brown haired, blue-ish grey eyed boy, standing at the counter putting together one of the million drinks on their menu for a customer. awsten found himself staring at the boy as he waited to get through the line. when he got to the counter, the tall boy came to take his order. awsten snuck a peek at the boys name tag, seeing it read, 'geoff' with some cute flower stickers around it. awsten smiled, looking up at the boy. "i'm geoff! how can i help you?" awsten found himself at a loss for words. "oh- uh-could i get a small iced coffee?" "sure! name for the order?" geoff smiled at the smaller green haired boy, eager to know his name. "awsten. a-w-s-t-e-n." awsten smiled back. "that's an interesting way to spell it, cool though." geoff said, as he wrote the name on the cup. little did awsten know, geoff had caught glimpse of the shorter boy as soon as he walked through the door. he knew he wanted to get to know him. as geoff was pulling out the receipt from the small machine, he quickly took his pen and wrote his number and a little 'text me qt :)' at the bottom of it. "small iced coffee for awsten!" geoff called, setting the drink at the end of the counter, leaning on it, putting his chin in his hand waiting for awsten to come pick it up. awsten heard his name, and quickly shuffled over to grab his drink. when he picked up the drink before smiling at geoff. just as he was getting ready to walk away, geoff handed him the receipt, with his number written on the bottom. awsten tried to keep it together as he walked out. as soon as he arrived back at his apartment he dug the receipt out of his pocket, entering geoffs number into his contacts.
