"I haven't seen you in forever! How have you been?" Sterling asked, a new light in his eyes as he looked at his old best friend.

(Wow, sorry. Didn't realize I was supposed to go to the next page.)
"I'm okay, busy with work. Not a whole lot since you left." Harlow's eyes shot to the ground, not wanting to give away how much she had missed him. And although she was over him, she still cared and hated the way he had left so suddenly.

"Taking any college classes?" Sterling asked, leaning against the doorframe. He had forgotten about the circumstances he had left under, though they might come back soon at this rate.

(Lol.)

"No, school won't start till August, but I am enrolled. I'm majoring in dance and fashion." Harlow replied. "And what about you? Only came back for the house?"As soon as the word left Harlow's mouth she regretted them. How could I be so selfish she thought to her self. Harlow made a mental note to not do it again.

Sterling rubbed the back of his neck. "Actually, my job transferred me here and my parents just agreed to sell me the house."

"Oh," Harlow mumbled. "Um, I got to go, feed my pup but I'll catch you later, yes?" Harlow felt her stomach rumble a little and realized she needed to eat as well.

“Right. Yeah. I’ll catch you later,” Sterling said, nodding slowly. “It was great to see you again.”

You too." Harlow smiled and made her way over to her own house where Lemonade was jumping at her heels with a warm greeting. Grabbing Lemonade's bowl, she filled it with food. Harlow, then, grabbed the cold pizza from the fridge. It's better than no food at all, she thought.

(…mkay…
Skip?)

(I like the coffee shop idea!)

Sterling sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he stepped into the coffee shop. He was desperate for a quick pick-me-up. He'd been unpacking late into the night, and he had gotten up early out of habit.

Harlow was rushing to make a Hot England Chai tea, praying to God she wouldn't mess it up, again. Her hair was a mess and Harlow had flour on her face from getting to the shop early to make doughnuts and tarts. "Clair?" Harlow called out, looking for the tall brunette that had previously yelled in her face for screwing up her order. Harlow spotted Clair in the far corner chatting on the phone with she assumed was a friend. Harlow made her way over to the table and set down the cup, dusting her hands off on her baby pink apron. The owner of the shop made all the employees wear them, she hated how bright and happy they looked.
"It's hot, be careful. Enjoy." Harlow warned and then gave the evil looking, bimbo, a smile she didn't deserve. Today is going to be a long day, Harlow thought as she made her way back around the counter.

(Harlow’s got sass. Lol.)

Sterling stepped up in the line, finally reaching the counter. When he looked up to order his drink, he froze for a moment before grinning.

“Harlow! Hey! I didn’t realize that you worked here,” he said.

Harlow was pouring a gentleman another coffee when she heard her name come from a familiar voice. She smiled and looked up at Sterling. "Oh hey! Yeah, it seemed like a great place to make a quick buck at the time but then I kind of never left." Harlow laughed at how stupid she sounded, He doesn't care, she thought.

"That's cool. I'm sure you enjoy the free coffee you must get," Sterling chuckled.

"Always." Harlow smiled, glad for the distraction. "What can I get you?"

Sterling sighed and glanced up at the menu. "Well, I don't know… What do you suggest?"

"Well, I usually order a sparkling tea, but that doesn't seem like something you'd drink. How about a Café con leche, or a just a regular Americano or a Macchiato?" Harlow pointed to the less than detailed board above her. They really need to fix this place up., she thought while sighing at the sight of it.

"Hm… You know what? Surprise me," Sterling chuckled. "I'll pay for whatever it is."

"Alright," Harlow said with a sly smile, "I will." Harlow turned her back to Sterling and faced the espresso machine, locking the cup in place before starting it up.

Sterling chuckled and waited for the drink to be done. She was cute, he'd give her that. Especially when she had that sly smile; it made her look like she was up to something.
