Pierce was leisurely strolling down the street, a sunny day blossoming on his back as he did so though it was early November and the air was cold. It was decided that a cup of warm coffee was in order today, with an overdose of french vanilla creamer and half and half. A guilty pleasure of his and today was just a day to indulge.
Walking into the coffee shop, the scent of roasting coffee and baked goods wafted over him in a sweet aroma. He breathed in a hefty whiff and took a spot at the end of the line extending from the front counter.
French Roasted large with four creams and three sugars...it sounded like a dream to him.

It was basically her lunch break and she had decided to go to the small little coffee shop down the street. Mostly for some fresh air, and for the sweet smell of coffee. Though, to avoid making everyone go crazy with her energetically overactive-ness that would soon result from drinking coffee she instead decided to just grab a bottled water and some baked goods. Just the smell off coffee was enough to re-energize herself.
Ava arrived at the coffee shop wearing black slacks and a turquoise v-neck blouse. Her blonde hair had been up in a messy bun, but she pulled it down about a minute before she arrived. Her hands were now running through her hair to make it look decent. Then she slipped into the store behind a guy. She was gently humming a tune to a song of which she couldn't remember quite at that moment, but she'd heard it earlier that day.
Her hands gently tapped against her thighs as she hummed, following the beat. She wasn't trying to be annoying or sound like she was impatient.. it just happened to be how she was. If someone were to glance back to her they'd realize she was smiling and looking around the place pleasantly.

The door opened again as someone walked in and a cold breeze slid past him. A pretty blonde stepped behind him in line. By the smell of her she was human. She hummed to herself and tapped. At first this irritated him but then he listened closer to the tune and he found that it was one of his old favorites: Message in a Bottle. He found himself tapping along with her to the tune and smiling.

Her humming seemed to be attracting some attention, as the guy in front of her began to tap along to her humming and her own tapping. It brought an even bigger smile to her face. And soon she couldn't help but softly sing the song out loud. She knew it by heart so it wasn't like she was putting the wrong words to the song. Her voice was soft, and she continued to tap her hands against her thighs as she waited in line. She hoped no one really minded her singing voice. It wasn't awful, but it also wasn't grand. However, it wasn't super loud.. yet.
Though her tapping did get a bit louder to match the beat to the music so she didn't like sound off tune or anything. There were still about five people ahead of her, and a few people were glancing back towards her but no one seemed annoyed enough to try and get her to shut up, yet.

Pierce sang a little with the girl and tapped his foot before convulsing into laughs. He smiled brightly at her, his golden eyes lighting up.
He offered his hand to her and said, "Hi, I'm Pierce."
Now that he was facing her full on he saw that she was very pretty for a human and seemed a decent girl. She was well dressed in a blouse and trousers, gold hair out around her face. He was still smiling, hoping he wasn't looking frumpy compared to her. He tried to think of what he looked like from when he looked in the mirror last that morning...Had he shaved? Was his hair orderly? Were his clothes stained or smell? He'd have straightened out his clothes and hair if he wasn't waiting for a handshake back. Now he was itching for it...

It seemed the guy ahead of her didn't mind to sing along with her. It would have been so cool if the whole store broke into song. However.. this wasn't a musical and such things really didn't happen in life. But she could hope, and wonder right?
When the song was over the guy turned to her and introduced himself. She smiled warmly and widely to him, "Well, nice to meet you Pierce, I am Ava," she admitted honestly taking his extended hand and shaking it firmly. "Thanks for joining me in song, it was rather fun," she admitted honestly.
Once they had shaken hands she released his and set it beside her again. And then indicated to him that it was his turn to order his food.

[atrb=border,0,true][atrb=cellSpacing,0,true][atrb=cellPadding,0,true][atrb=width,400,true] | [atrb=background,http://i566.photobucket.com/albums/ss101/felinemonstrosities/mid2.jpg] There was a brief exchange as they smiled brightly at one another, convivial for having met a new friend. He found he was still smiling at her when he realized it was his turn in line. He blushed a moment as he dictated his order to the bored-looking teenaged girl behind the counter.
He was handed his beloved brew and danish and nodded at Ava as he went to sit down at his selected table, signaling that her presence at his table would make him quite happy.
He pulled out a chair and waited patiently for her, smiling the whole while; he found that he was unusually happy today. Pleasant coffee. Pleasant people. Pleasant day.

[Cute post script x3]
She smiled warmly to him as he blushed after realizing it was his turn, and turned away from her then to give his order to the clerk. She waited patiently excited that it was nearly her turn. And then smiled as he moved away to a table and beckoned for her to join him. She grabbed her pastry and a glass of water, and then moved to join Pierce.
She smiled as she took a seat at the table he'd picked out. Giving a quick glance around at the room once again and the people. Most of the tables were occupied, and she realized the line was still long even though she was no longer in it. Well, she was glad she didn't have to wait anymore. She could barely sit still, let alone wait. She was like an energetic puppy on steriods.. or well, she usually was. Today though, she supposed was one of her better days. She hadn't annoyed this guy, yet.
"So, enjoying your day so far?" she asked casually to the other.

"Indeed, I am. It's been sort of a doom and gloom week for me so far and today just kind of...oh, I don't know, but it seems so much brighter than normal. My job was pressing on me but breaks definately take some of the weariness out of it." He was still smiling, seeing the truth in his words before he went on to ask, "And yourself?"
He found he was truly interested to hear what she had to say. Here was a pretty, normal, happy girl who could surely relate to him in a strange, ironic way. She was human--for sure--and he was...well, not. And yet they had life issues that were parelleled. Casual things like this didn't happen often to him and he took pleasure in the slowing down of the flow of his life, to just sit and converse with a normal person with some coffee in such a quant place: a cafe on the better side of town that served excellent coffee. And she was cute.

"I completely understand.. sometimes I just need some literal air to calm my nerves. Though, I suppose I work in a high stressed based environment. It doesn't really bother me though, because I know I'm helping someone that otherwise can't help themselves," she admitted. And as to not confuse him, "I'm a veterinarian at the local ASPCA down the street."
"And so far my day is great," she admitted with a warm smile. Well of course it was great, she had just made a new friend. She opened her water bottle and took a sip, the cold, refreshing liquid flowing down her throat.
