"And if you touch my phone again I will burn your family while you sleep." She yelled back at the blonde as they reentered the room. "Oh, what, no, that wasn't harsh, babe." "Ohhhh, shut up, no I told you to, Issu, no, I'm at work, later, okay?" "Bye, love you."
"Okay, I'm back." She said as she sat back down across from him. "Sorry about that, that little one tends to be quite a pain." She shot a glare back at the blonde, who sat innocently behind the counter.

When the girl sat back down, I was kind of confused. This was her job after all. Was it normal for her to sit down and talk to customers? "It's fine."
I said, wanting to advise that she not just sit around or she'll lose her job. But, instead, I let it go and started tracing the edge of the lid with my finger tips. The incident with this girl - and what I'm guessing was some sort of special someone on the phone - reminded me of my phone, currently off. I wondered if Katie has called me multiple times by now. The wondering was killing me but I wouldn't stoop so low just to check.
[Fail. Sorry. :C ]

(It's fine.
My post is probably going to fail too. Just saying. I: )
A frown yet again crossed her face. "I'm sure you'll find someone better." She said with a slight smile.
"Hey I know," she exclaimed, "how about a complementary cupcake?"
"Best ones in town." She smiled. "Or maybe something else, hmn?" "More coffee, tea, a pastry or sandwich, my number?"

The girl kept offering me sweets. I was half tempted to tell her that girls pig out when their stupid boyfriends cheat on them, guy's don't. Guy's want a punching bag with the face of the jerk that stole the girl plastered on it.
And I planned on plastering a picture of Joe's face to my punching bag when I got home.
It took me a moment to realize she had offered her number. Once again, the girl caught me by surprise. "Your number? I don't know if that's appropriate. With your boyfriend and all."
At least I assumed it was her boyfriend on the phone.

"Oh, he won't mind." The tealette chuckled, leaning her hand against the side of her face. "Wait..." It took her a minute to comprehend what he had said. "What made you assume it was him?' She bit the side of her lip as she took a minute to ponder things.
"Oh, silly me." "I've been talking to you for so long and I don't even know your name."

I felt embarrassed when she asked how I knew that. I haven't felt embarrassed in... Forever.
"Oh. I just assumed since you chased someone around just to talk to whoever was so important on the phone, then called him 'babe' and told him you loved him and..." I waved my hand, feeling like I completely read mail that wasn't mine. There was even a rare, slight pink in my cheeks.
"My name is Travis. And yours?"

"Yeah." She felt a sight blush come onto her face. "That's just Isaiah, or Issu-chan as I call him." "Yeeep." She sighed, resting her chin in her hand.
"Oh, and I'm Ashley." "Ashley Asphyxiation."
"Ahem." The blonde interrupted from behind the counter. "Alright." The tealette grumbled. "Ashley Kingsleigh."

I looked at the blonde behind the counter and back at the girl now known as Ashley. I must have missed something but I guessed she was just embarrassed by her last name. I chose not to comment on it.
The idea came back about her number, but I was slightly glad that topic was in the dust now that the conversation turned to our names. I would feel uncomfortable getting a number from a girl that had this 'Isaiah' already.
"Well, it's nice to meet you Ashley."

"It's nice to meet you to, Travis." She smiled. She had been smiling a lot lately, or at least more than she usually did.
"Well, here's your tab." She motioned to the piece of paper that was placed under the plate. "Annd here's my number." "So call me maybe?" With a playful wink she made her way back to the counter.
(Okay, I had to.
just had to.)

[[ Now it's my turn to say... Your post made my day. :D ]
I looked down at the paper, more specifically her number before a defeated sigh escaped my lips. "I told you, I don't think your boyfriend will..." Whatever. Though it sounded completely rude, maybe I could just keep the number and discreetly show Katie so that she'd realize I was done. Maybe. If I felt up to using the sweet girl that way. "Thanks." I finally said, before getting cash out for the coffee and tip and standing up from the table. Glancing back at Ashley once, I smirked, before walking out of the cafe, feeling completely different then I had coming in.

(Hahaha. cx)
"Yeah, I don't think your boyfriend would like that." The blonde sneered. "Oh, no, he won't care." The tealette said quickly as she flashed a cheeky, close-eyed smile. The blonde raised an eyebrow in response. "You sure?" "Because he seems to be okay with a lot of things." "What do you mean?" The tealette paused, absentmindedly pouring a cup of tea. "Well I mean you take his clothes, you take his hats, you take his money, I mean, you even took his-" The blonde nearly choked on a cookie that had been shoved into her mouth with an intention to interrupt her sentence. She frowned, pulling out the intrusion. "You talk too much, dear." The tealette said before taking a sip of tea, waving her free hand at the younger girl. "Do I talk too much, or did I just strike a wrong nerve?"
"Murrrrooow!" The cat from earlier had a returned, a rather unpleasant look on his face. "Yes Indie, geez, you can get on the tables now." Their conversation was quickly ended due to a game of keep-away between Indie and the tealette. "I said you could get on a table." "I did not say you could get on the table." She scolded. Indie paid no mind. He was too busy drinking from her unattended teacup. "Great, now I have to get more tea!" "Thanks a lot, fur-ball." She sighed, leaning down to the cat's level. "What am I ever going to do with you?" She asked the cat, tapping him playfully on the nose. Indie purred in response before rubbing the side of his face against one of the studs on the tealette's lip.
"Hey." Came the blonde's voice from behind them. "I hate to interrupt your Kodak-moment with that wrecking ball but we have to close up." "Already?" "Yeah, it's already five." The blonde informed her as she untied her apron. It seemed much more earlier to her. "Ah, I guess time flies when you're having fun, hmm?" "Or time flies when you're flirting." The blonde rolled her eyes. "Shut up." She frowned. "And what did I say about those damn eyes!" "Not like you can do anything anyways." The blonde teased before sticking out her tongue.
"Tomorrow, you die tomorrow." She grumbled while she hung up her apron. "Right." "Oh, and, Ash, try not to stay up so late tomorrow, it's Friday, so we'll be busy."
"Yeah, sure, whatever." She said quickly as she grabbed up her cat and made her way out to her car.

[[ I have no idea how old we planned to make them. 18+ a fine range? Just because I don't really want him living with his parents if he had a fiancee... That's just weird. ]]
After leaving the cafe, I took my phone out and turned it on. Once it came on, it showed that Katie has called five times. I'm guessing she finally wanted to clear her chest as well about last night.
I ignored the calls, walking back to the apartment complex I lived in. My mind went to the Ashley's number in my pocket. What would be so wrong with giving her a call? It wasn't like I planned on getting drunk with her. Besides, I technically wasn't engaged to Katie anymore. Once I found less bitterness in my heart for the woman, I'll be calling her and telling her as kindly as possible that I never wanted to see her ugly face again.
I unlocked the door leading to my apartment and went inside. Getting the paper from my pocket, I stared at the number for a second. Was I willing to just call on another girl, after my fiancee cheated on me? Yes. Yes I will. Even if it hurt, I might forget about Katie by morning if Ashley meant it by calling her.
Getting out my phone once more, I sat down on the couch in the small living room and dialed her number. I pressed the phone to my ear, just then remembering her boyfriend. Too late to end the call now...

(That's fine. Ash is nineteen, anyways.)
A yawn escaped her throat as the door to the townhouse flung open. "Urgh, I'm starving." Her hand cradled her stomach as she peered into the fridge. She hadn't ate all day. Eating in public was just one of the abnormal quirks she had, so she'd usually just sip copious amounts of tea during her shift. She grabbed a packet of carrots and a jar filled with a reddish-pink substance and made her way to the counter, Indie quickly followed suit, releasing a sea of furious meows. "I hear ya, Indie." She talked down to the cat as he brushed against her slender legs. "Here." She sat an opened can of cat food on the floor, too lazy to put it into his food bowl. The seal on the jar opened with a loud "pop," startling both her and the cat on the floor. She spooned several globs of the substance into the bowl she had previously filled with carrots. Her slender fingers hooked around one and after an utterance of "Itadakimasu!" she popped it into her mouth, a bit of the pinkish goo falling off her rosy lips.
The tealette sighed, thinking about what had happened today, and thinking about Travis. She wasn't entirely sure whether or not Isaiah was okay with her lifestyle (and if he wasn't he surely had an odd way of showing it). He just seemed so...cool with everything. He didn't mind that she had habits of staying out late, or habits of behaving an immature, inappropriate teen in public (though he was obviously the more perverted one out of the relationship, she was just a flirt), or the fact that she'd constantly consider inviting her annoying neighbors over for dinner, emphasis on dinner.
She bit her bottom lip.
The subtle vibrations from her phone disrupted her chain of thought. A smile graced her lips as she saw the unlisted number, assuming it was Travis. "Ne, Ashley desu." She answered.
(Yeah, that's right. Ash dips her carrots in brain matter because she's awesome like that. I:
She also tends to speak in a Japanese/English or "Engrish" mixture. Though it's not much, and if it gets to severe I'd be happy to translate.)

[[ I completely forgot she was a zombie until I read your post. |D Does she look like... Normal? My google translate doesn't work, but as long as you keep it obvious - like I knew she pretty much said, 'Hey, It's Ashley' or along those greeting lines - you won't have to go through the trouble of translating. <3 ]]
My shoulders hunched over in relief when I heard her voice. How humiliated I would have been if it was the rejection hot line or something. That was the last thing I needed. "Uh..."
I was slightly confused by what she had spoke, but maybe if I introduced myself, she'd know to speak English. "Hey, Ashley. It's Travis, the guy you met at the cafe."
Did my voice portray how nervous I was? I felt just as low as Katie by calling this other woman. I kept telling myself the engagement was already over - just not officially. So I had no reason to feel bad.

(tle="" href="http://oi48.tinypic.com/2qkpkiv.jpg">This is Ash.She looks completely normal. She's more of a controlled, new-age zombie.Alrighty.)"Hi." She said with a giggle. She hoped it wasn't painfully obvious for him to tell that she was blushing over the phone. "I didn't think you'd call..."(/fail post) |

[[ Did you draw her? |D Lol. Thanks. :D ]]
Hearing her giggle brought a smile to my face. That meant she was still alright with me calling. "I didn't think I would either. But... Well, I couldn't help myself."
I was surprised that last part spilled from my mouth. Clearing my throat, I added, "Well, if you're sure your boyfriend was alright with this, maybe we could...I mean, if it's alright...Uh..."
How to say this? I still had to break up with Katie. I haven't asked out a girl in forever and I was never smooth with it. "Well... You know what I mean."
I said, irritation at my cowardice laced in my tone.

(Nah, I made hertle="" href="http://arvee.org/sofetch/"> here)"Well, I couldn't help myself." The words ran through her head, making her blush more. She knew he would probably start to think otherwise if she kept silent for a while. "Oh, you couldn't now, could you?" She teased, twirling a strand of her teal hair. "Yeah, I know what you're saying." Her voice instantly changed to a smooth, flirtatious tone. "Do you have any free time, babe?" |

[[ Oh, that looks cool. |D ]]
I layed my head back on the end of the cushion of the sofa, more then overjoyed then she hadn't forced me to ask her out with 'the words'. I just wasn't good with that.
"I'm free anytime, Ashley."
I said with a chuckle before running a hand through my hair. Did I sound to eager? It wasn't like I was the one supposed to be playing hard - to - get here. Or, maybe she'd like it if I did. I had no idea what went on in a girl's head.
"I mean, from what I know of..."
I added. No, that wasn't adding a 'hard to get' comment. That was me obviously trying to act hard to get. I rolled my eyes. This was all too complex.

"Good." The words practically rolled off her tongue, ending in a soft chuckle. There was no doubt about it, she was an obvious flirt, and her voice clearly portrayed her usual "I want you" vibe.
"Any ideas?" She asked, biting down on her lower lip.

I smiled, thinking a moment. What was the ideal date? I had no clue. "Whatever you'd like. Movies, dinner, dancing... Anything, I guess."
