3rd POV

"So, Gally, what do ya think? Should we go visit our neighbors?" Minho said, placing down the tattoo needle and throwing away some wipes.

"Ugh, fine. We'll go. But we won't stay for long you got that?" Gally rolled his eyes. He didn't want to go the shop next door.

Brenda laughed.

"Its ironic isn't it? Who would've thought that

"Gladers HomeStead Tattoos"

Would move next to

"Safe Heaven
Flowers, Coffee, Books, Peace, and Love" "

Brenda laughed again. Gally thought the shop next door was absolutely idiotic. Gally hated the shop next door because of how different it was from his shop. The shop next door was so lovey dovey looking, that it made Gally want to barf his guts out. Minho gave a a cheeky smile.

"Lets go, before they close their shucking love shitting shop. Its almost 8 o'clock and I'm sure most of the shops in this neighbor hood close early." Gally mumbled the last part. Brenda, Minho, and Gally made their way on to the side walk, the shop next door had a empty ally in the middle, with only a few empty water bottles in the very back. The very shop it self was painted a bright color of purple. The color was so bright that it hurt Gallys eyes, (even though it was almost night time).

Minhos POV

We waked into the shop, a nice warm breeze hitting me in the face as i opened the door. A small little bell rang when the door opened, the most annoying little sound that bell made. There was a girl sitting on top of a create. She was thin, but not too small, roughly five and a half feet with burning blue eyes and skin that was pale, white as pearls. She had silky tar black hair with long legs and perfect pink lips. She sat on a crate that had the words Safe Heaven painted in red on the side. Her legs crossed at the ankle and she hunched over, her elbows on her knees and a yellow book in her hand. She looked up as soon as the bell rung out. She closed the book an stood up.

"Hi! Welcome to Safe Heaven! What can we help you with this fine evening? Are you here for books, flowers, coffee-"

"We're the new shop owners from next door." Gally cut her off.

"Oh... um, let me go get the other shop owners." She said, before walking to the back and through a sky blue door frame that had big white beads hanging like a curtain. I took a good look around the shop. It was pretty big, with a huge library like living room type thing. Seats that had built-in book shelf's, hammocks  with fluffy pillows laying in them. Small coffee tables with flowers and books and empty coffee cups sat here and there through out the shop. A coffee maker sat on a counter behind the cash register. Next to the cash register there was a bunch off flowers in buckets and vases. All of the buckets and vases has FOR SALE painted on them in the color red.

"They keep their shop pretty messy don't you think?" Brenda whispered.

"Yeah, why are there so many coffee cup everywhere? And flower pedals? And books?" I sighed, i guess thats the whole point on this place.

Not 4 minutes later the girl and two guys walked out from behind the white beaded curtain.

"Yall look nice and tuff now dont ya?" A blonde boy said.
"I'm Newt." He extended him arm and I shook it.
A boy with black hair stood next to him, he was looking down and was twiddling his fingers. The girl rolled her eyes at him.

Gally POV

"I'm Teresa, and that's Thomas. He's kinda shy so excuse him if he doesn't talk much." Teresa glared at Thomas before waving hi to us.
Thomas also gave a shy glance upwards before looking back down and waving hi shyly to us.
I gave a hefty grunt. That seemed to have caught his attention. He looked up at me and stared at me through his hair.
"I'm Gally. That over there's Brenda. And that piece of klunk is Minho." I leaned forward, bending down a little to see his face. Thomas turned his face to the side, trying to cover his face with his hands. I poked his side. That got a giggle out of him.
"I'd like to know your name." I poked his side again.
"His names Tho-" I jerked my head towards Teresa, who shut up immediately. I gave her s harsh glare.
"I-I'm T-Thomas.... B-but Newt l-likes to c-call me Tommy, and Teresa likes t-to c-call me Tom, so p-p-pick your f-f- favorite." Thomas's ears turned pink.
"Your names Thomas, so I'll go with that." I leaned back and stood straight, I crossed my arms. I took in a deep breath.

Thomas POV

Gally took in a deep breath, his muscles expanding just a bit. I bet I'm the only one who's paid that much attention to his body language and the way he does things. Example: when ever he takes deep breaths, his whole upper body seems to float upwards, and when he exhales it all falls back into a place. Or when he raises his eyebrow, his nose twitches a bit and his left eyes iris seems to widen.
Little details are what I think make a person.
"So, the new shop owner. What's the new shop about?" Newt started walking  towards the library section, and sat down in a thick chair. The chair had a book self built into the side. Teresa also sat down and gestured for everyone else to sit. Minho laid down on a hammock and Brenda sat Indian stile in a fluffy chair.

GALLY POV

"W-would you g-guys like some coffee? O-or some t-tea?" Me and Thomas were the only one standing at this point. I looked him up and down. He was skinny, but not skin and bones. Dark brown hair. Long enough for someone to give a good tug on it. He wasn't twiddling his fingers anymore, but now he was picking at his finger nails.
"I'll take tea." Teresa said. Brenda nodded.
"Yeah, I'll take a tea as well." Brenda smiled at Thomas. Thomas's ears turned pink.
"Ah, lemme get coffee, decaf, or I won't be able to sleep tonight." Minho stretched out on the hammock.
Newt chuckled, "Get me a coffee too, extra milky will ya?"
Thomas nodded and then turned his head to me.
"Nah, I don't drink coffee. And tea just taste weird." I leaned against one on the book selfs. Thomas nodded and turned and walked through the beaded white curtain.

*time skip 3 minutes*

"Own a tattoo parlor-"

"Ya know what? Imma go help Thomas out. I'll be back in a bit." I got up walked through the curtain. There where two doors and a stair case. One door was open slightly. I pushed the door open and walked in. The smell of chocolate and caffein kicked me in the face.
"What a-are y-your doing in h-here!" Thomas squeaked.
"I wanted to see if you needed any help." I glanced over to the coffee machine. It look like a mini transformer.
"That things pretty big, are you sure that's a coffee machine and not a transformer?" I pointed at the coffee machine.
"Um, y-yeah... If that things a transformer it's pretty good at making coffee." Thomas walked over to the machine and pulled a little nob. Coffee poured out and into a white cup.
Thomas pulled the cup out of underneath it and add cream and sugar to it. 7 little cups of cream and 5 sugar packets.
I raised an eyebrow at Thomas.
"I have a sweet tooth that don't stop craving the sweet." Thomas smiled at the floor.

3rd POV

Gally stared at Thomas for a good, long time, while Thomas stirred his coffee with a purple spoon. Thomas took a sip and smiled, closing his eyes and looking down.
Then Gally thought something funny. Something he'd never thought before.

Man, I want some coffee.
