You were one of the regular customers of Jackson and William's meat shop. You went there every other week to pick up an order as a chore for your parents. They loved the meat from that place, you thought their shop was a little fishy but you never dug too much into it. 

They only used to be open on the weekend (which was odd in your opinion but who cares, they must be more busy with other stuff on the week days.) and most of the times you went you would be greeted by Jackson. William wasn't very the social type so he scared off some customers which is probably why he stopped doing it all together but you didn't care since Jackson was more 'friendly' anyways. 

You walked into the shop, it smelled disgusting but then again it was a meat shop. The bell above the door rung as Jackson peeked from the back, smiling when he saw you. "[Naaame]! Hey, how've ya been?" He asked enthusiastically as he walked up to the counter. You walked up as well, smiling nervously as he greeted you enthusiastically which made you feel embarrassed. "haha- I'm good, what about you?" You asked, fiddling with your hands. 

"I'm good as well, so just the usual I assume?" Jackson raised a brow with that friendly smile still plastered on his face. "No- My dad asked me to get something different that the usual- actually it's a bit more than the usual... is that okay?." You asked awkwardly, feeling embarrassed. "Yeah that's fine! You got a list or something?" You quickly nodded, taking out the list your dad gave you before handing it to him. "Holy, are ya'll throwing a party or somethin'?" "Kind of, yeah." You chuckled. "Alright then. I'll get that for you." He went to the back as you raised a brow, you didn't see William anywhere, it seemed to be just Jackson.

"Hey? Is William there or is it just you?-" You asked as Jackson turned to you, pausing for a moment. "Yeah it's just me. William's sick so he couldn't come to the shop today." Jackson said plainly as he turned back around. 

"Oh- Well I hope he's okay.." You muttered. "Ehhh don't worrryyy. He'll be fine. Promise." Jackson smiled as he went into the back. You waited for him to come back as you stood around awkwardly, you took out your phone to check the time, a notification caught your eye as you started going through your messages, not even realizing Jackson came back already. 

"What cha' doin'?" Jackson peeked over the counter as you jumped, sighing when you saw him. "Just checking my messages." You smiled, putting your phone away. "Oh alright." He said, there was an awkward silence before he put the bags on the counter. You took out your card, swiping it on the card scanner, it got accepted as you sighed in relief.

"It's pretty heavy, you need any help bringing it to your car?" Jackson asked, leaning on the counter.

"Uhhh- Let me see." You carefully lifted the bags, they were pretty heavy as you tucked your lips into your mouth out of frustration. "Yeah... it's uh- really heavy..." Jackson snickered before coming around the counter, taking the bags from your hand. "You don't have to take all of them-" "Don't worry about it doll face." Jackson smiled as you sighed. "okay.." You felt a bit bad as he walked you out of the store and into your car. 

Once he put the bags in your car you thanked him and apologized for taking his time. "Hey, I said don't worry about it didn't I?" Jackson chuckled as he looked down at you. You smiled, about to get in your car before he stopped you. 

"Hey- uhm... I've been wondering... for a bit actually- Uhhh... could I- uhm... maybe get.. your numberrr..?" He looked away from you, looking nervous as he bit his lip.

Your eyes widened a bit, you two have had many conversation and such about your lives and more than just small talk and you really enjoyed being around him but you never thought he had feelings for you. You thought he was just being nice. There was an awkward silence as both of you didn't speak, Jackson was embarrassed and flustered as you were just a bit shocked. You didn't have massive feelings for him but it didn't seem like a horrible idea? 

You giggled, taking out your phone as Jackson's eyes widened, he didn't actually think he'd get it. "Your so cute when you get all nervous and embarrassed like that." You said, opening your phone and getting your number. Jackson felt even more nervous as he started to stutter, he never acted like this, he was always the confident and friendly one and now he was a flustered mess.

"U-uh- a-ahaha... thanks..?" He said, trying to act confident but he couldn't even look you in the eyes. You took out a pen and paper form your car, writing your number down before handing it to him. "There." You smiled as he took the paper from your hand. 

He felt so excited as he smiled. "T-thanks-" He said, look at you as you gently kissed his cheek. "You can call me any time you want." You smiled, getting in your car as Jackson backed away from it, feeling shocked as he held your number in his hands. You felt embarrassed too, thinking why you did that, but when you saw his face as you pulled out, you laughed, realizing it was worth it to see him all flustered and standing there like an idiot.
