Ooc; Editing this with my reply. I'll reply again so the two characters meet and then you guys can enter. :P

The walk to Starbucks had taken longer than Cassandra had planned. Admittedly she'd stopped to rent a movie for the night, as well as picking up a newspaper so she could keep track of the kidnappings. She was hardly about to tell anyone, but she was more closely connected to the cases than most people knew about. Unfortunately, it wasn't as if the police would believe her about it, so Cass kept her mouth shut and head down. 

Pausing in a small drugstore Cass bought a new hairbrush and some gum, checking her wallet multiple times to make sure that she had enough for a coffee or tea. It would suck to make it all the way there for nothing, especially when she was feeling particularly haggard. Her book wouldn't write itself, and honestly the coffee she made tasted disgusting.

A few minutes after exiting the store Cassandra stepped into the cool Starbucks cafe, sighing happily as the A & C blew cold wind on the nape of her neck. The summer air had been humid and Cass hadn't been particularly prepared, wearing a long-sleeve blouse and skinny jeans. At least her jeans had been white, but now her short black hair hung limply in the heat. Pursing her lips in a look of disapproval Cass headed for the counter and smiled shyly at the wheat-haired girl there, all of the sudden awkward and quiet.

"Uhm, hey. One mocha frappacino? Hold the whipped cream please." Cassandra fidgeted awkwardly, almost dropping her wallet onto the ground. 

"What size?" She prompted looking at the cups. The girl nodded towards the grande cup and Avalia took it and wrote down her order. "Did you hear about the kidnappings?" Avalia asked as she made the drink. She looked down at the drink and then put two shots of coffee into it. She fixed it with the frapicino ice stuff and remembered just in time not to put whip cream on it. She closed the lid on top of it and handed the clear cold cup to the other girl. As she handed the girl her drink, the person who was supposed to be on his shift right now, walked through the door and smiled at her as if nothing was wrong. She fought back a growl and took off her apron, placing it in a secret compartment. Making her way through the crowd of people, she sat down and began to drink her chai. She motioned for the womand she had just served to sit with her...

((Sorry for that bit of powerplaying, I couldn't do much without a size XD))

Shay woke up and got ready for the day.  Choosing a turquoise, short-sleeved shirt with a small pocket on the top left and some light gray shorts with a sports symbol on the left side.  The girl started to get out the cereal down in the kitchen and ate it quickly.  Althoug she felt very tired.. standing over the sink, Shay pointed her finger to the nozzle and a large, water-filled bubble made its way out.  Holding the bubble in the palm of her hand, she then slammed it in her face.  Ahhh, quite refreshing.  And it woke her up more, too.

{Time Skip}

Shay got extremely bored over the course of the day.  It was now nighttime.  A thought then popped into her head.  Couldn't she just go to the Starbucks down the street now?  Well, of course she could.  "Mom!  Dad!  I'm going over to Starbucks, 'kay?" she shouted into the living room so her parents knew where she was.  "Ok," her father quickly replied and soon got back to his movie.  She then proceeded to slip on her golden colored flip-flops and continued outside.

Breathing in the humid summer air, she could tell it was going to be extremely hot - AGAIN.  Why does Santa Rosa's summer heat always have to make you feel like you're going to die?  Even at NIGHT?  Walking down the sidewalk, Shay saw a cute puppy being walked by an older woman.  Oh, how she wished she could have a pet.  But her dad wasn't very happy about the idea - ever.  Her mother was half-and-half.  Shaking the thought away, she entered the wonderfully cool Starbucks.  Much better in here than out there, she thought.

Shay finally found a booth that was free - or at least free enough, seeing as a girl was on the opposite side.  Sitting down, she didn't need anything, but a nice mocha frappucino would be alright.  Hey, the other girl seemed to have one too!  That was pretty cool.  The silence between them was sort of awkward to her right away, so she said, "Hi.."

(Oh well fff then.  Ignore my post lalala.)

Shay looked at the other girl and nodded.  "Yes.  I just feel sort of annoyed that they're not doing much about it.  It's like you see a lot of action about the murder stories going on, but the kidnappings right now are just sort of getting waved off, y'know?"  she said, finding something interesting to say.  Perhaps this could be a good conversation, considering it could go two different ways depending on another person's reply.

She soon realized that she wanted that frappucino more than she thought.  Calling over a waiter, she quickly ordered and got her drink.  It looked well-made, like most of Starbucks' drinks and such.  Taking a sip out of the long, thin, black straw, Shay liked the taste of it.  This was the only thing she would ever drink from Starbucks, apart from a hot chocolate.  But it's summer - who would order a hot chocolate in this heat?!
