Zach who? And why was he running?

It's been three days since my encounter with this stranger and my head can't stop thinking about him.

He seemed so familiar and boy was he cute.

I sighed as I decided to get dressed and grab some coffee. Today is Saturday so no classes thank god.

I walked to my usual coffee spot and listened as the doorbell rang upon my entrance.

I smiled at Margret and took a seat at a nearby table.

April, Margret's granddaughter, came out and took my order along with another tables order.

I looked over to the table and saw three guys and a girl all laughing over something on a phone.

Too bad my friends are in New York this week...I would've loved the company

Just then I heard the bell ring and I spun around hoping it was 'zach' but it was just an elderly couple.

I decided to just scroll through Instagram until I heard April's voice

"I'm not some messenger, you've gotta mouth so use it"

Yep. That's April for ya. She doesn't let anyone run her over

I looked to see where it was coming from and saw her standing at the table with the guys and girl. She just scoffed and walked off from the table

The next thing I know is someone is standing in front of me.

"May I sit here?" The guy asked

"Um sure" I took a close look at his face and noticed it was Zach. "You again?"

"Yes me aga-" He was cut off by Margret

"He's been comin here everyday since you two ran into each other out there. All he does is sit there with his friends all day. Only orders a few things" Margret said sitting my cup of coffee in front of me while glaring at him

"Sorry I've just been preoccupied" he smiled

"Mhmm. Anyways enjoy sugar" she smiled at me and walked off

"You've been coming here three days straight? Why?" I asked

"Well for one, she does have some pretty good coffee here. Two it's got a nice little vibe goin on" my heart dropped a little as he spoke. What I was hoping was ridiculous. He just saw me he couldn't like me. "And three...I never got your name"

He smiled cheekily

"My name is y/n  y/l/n. And yours is?"

"Oh you know who I am" he laughed. "Let's stop pretending to be dumb"

What.

I heard a whistle come from behind the counter with a small laugh and I knew it was from Margret.

"Excuse me? Pretending to be dumb?" I asked

"Um yuh. We all know that you know who I am so let's stop playing around." He leaned back in his chair

I looked over to his friends, they were all wide eyed except the girl. She looked furious and I bet I did too.

"Okay buddy you listen to me, I have no clue who you are or why you think that I know you but whoever you are, you cannot and will not talk to me like that and expect me to answer you." And with that I stood up and pushed my chair in, "oh and by the way maybe next time you wait and wait for someone try not to be such a dick whenever you finally meet them again because it doesn't help you at all. And for the record, I'm not some little petty girl who thinks she can pretend to be dumb just to get her way. Maybe you shouldn't judge someone before you get to know them." And then I walked out leaving this rude dude behind me.

~26 days later~

Ughhh I miss Margret's coffee.

Since I ran into that Zach dude again I've been going to a different coffee shop just to avoid him.

I'm having withdrawals from my usual coffee

It just doesn't taste the same if Margret doesn't make it

That's it.

I'm going.

For my coffee.

Nothing more.

And with that I stood up and walked out the door towards my favorite café even though it was 4 in the afternoon.

As I walk down the street I see a black van parked outside of a shoe store. Although I'm extremely curious, I keep my focus on my main mission. COFFEE.

I enter the café to see April washing down tables.

"Welcome back. Long time no see" she smiled

"Yeah. I've been wanting to come back but I had to lay low for a few days" I laughed

"Boys" she rolled her eyes playfully with a laugh

"You got that right"

"Y/n!!! Glad to see ya back suga" Margret came through the kitchen doors and hugged me

"I've missed you too Margret" I laughed

"That little boy of yours will not stop coming here. I'm almost ready to ban him" she laughed

"I don't know what his deal is. He thinks that I know him but I don't have a clue who he is at all" I laughed still a little mad, "can I have some coffee" I asked a little strained

"Yes you can" she laughs, "that kid is head over heels for you apparently. His friends keep on trying to drag him away anytime he comes in here after apologizing repeatedly" she explains

"I don't know about that one" April says shaking her head as she wipes the table

"He's crazy in love" a voice comes from the door

We all look to see a blonde haired boy and a really curly haired boy. I immediately recognize them as 'Zachs' friends

"What? He's in love with me?" I laugh. It wasn't really a serious question it was more if a joke

"Yeah. He is. And he's been so messed up since he made you leave." The curly boy explained

"Can you please give him a chance to explain?" The blonde one asked

I looked to Margret who continued making my coffee like nothing was happening

Then I turned to April who just smiled before finishing the table

"...sure." I answer. "But make sure he knows that I still don't have a clue who he is or why he assumed I knew him right off the bat. Okay?"

"Deal" they both say

"Um this is his number. You can choose to let him know it's you or just get to know him anonymously for a few days. Your choice. We won't tell him we saw you if you want" the blonde one spoke

"Did he send you guys to look for me or something?" I question taking the number

"Um kinda. But we'll say you weren't there" the curly one answered.

"Okay sounds good" I smile.

"Before I forget, I'm Corbyn and this is Jack" the blonde spoke

"Y/n" I told them and shook their hands

"We'll see ya around y/n" Jack waved
