So Ruel" She smirked when I got back up the stairs, "have you guys done it?"

"Annabelle Jane Lethering!" i cried

"What?" My mom laughed

"He's not even my boyfriend, I met him a week ago and we're just friends" I said sitting on a stool opposite her

"He called you princess" she pointed out

"He insists on having a pet name for me" I said rolling my eyes

"So you call him pretty boy" she said

"It's just an observation" I groaned

"Where'd you meet him?" She asked

"Work" i answered, "he comes in everyday now"

"To see you" She said wiggling her eyebrows

"No" i stayed firmly, "for the special coffee I make him"

"You make him your doubleshot coffee?" She asked in surprise

"Why do more people know about that than I thought" I groaned

"I thought you stopped making that when your dad died" Mom said

"Well maybe for other people I did" I said, "I never stopped making it for myself"

"So why for him?" Mom asked

"I don't know, I've never been asked to choose a coffee for a customer and instinctively I made my special one" I shrugged

"You have a crush" my mom smirked 

"Oh come off it" I scoffed 

"You do" my mom squealed 

"That's enough, I'm going to my room" I announced getting up 

"Don't be hiding your feelings" I heard my mom call as I closed my door 

"Fucking drama queen" i mumbled 

. . .

When I got in for work the next day Sasha was waiting at the door for me. 

"This is sus" I said eyeing her cautiously

"There's just been a few changes" she smiled

"What kind of changes?" I asked pulling on my apron

"We're getting quite a few new customers lately so I thought you'd need some help at the counter" Sasha smiled

Only then did I realise a guy walking buying the cashier 

"Really Sasha" I said bluntly

"Yes" she said firmly, "now go and be nice"

I groaned and headed behind the counter to the till.

"Hi i'm Ethan, what's your name beautiful" he smirked

"I'm Isla" I said bluntly

"You're really pretty" he said ignoring my rudeness

"Is that supposed to mean something to me?" I asked turning to him

"It was just a compliment jeez" he said the smirk slipping from his face

"Well I don't want your compliments so let's just work ok" I snapped

"Bitch" i heard him mutter under his breath

"Yeah well this bitch is currently more superior than you in this job so just get to making and handing out coffee" i said pinning the first receipt onto the new holders
