2. Of Coffee Beans and Daydreams

-I was going to work on this tomorrow or the day after, but I got a little too excited and did it today. This also may be WAY longer than I anticipated; so I apologize in advance-


Magnus made it back to his station slipping into the back room where he finally released the breath he'd been holding.

OH MY GOD OH MY GOD OH MY GOD. He'd actually done it. He spoke to the gorgeous blue-eyed boy. He'd been wanting to for so long, he couldn't believe he finally had. Everything was perfect, even if he'd only managed to get about 6 words from him.

Raphael walked up behind him "So how'd it go?"

Magnus composed himself and smoothed down his silken shirt before slipping his apron back on.

"It went well" he mulled over the thought as he washed his hands and reached for a towel to dry them.

"Well? That's what you call well? Poor guy I thought he was going to have a heart attack. Why do you even like him? He's so far in the closet I'm sure he's found Narnia. His outfit choices are abysmal. And his stubble tells me he clearly doesn't know how to shave or doesn't care. Not your type at all!"

Magnus gasped throwing the wet damp towel into Raphael's face. How dare he speak about his Alexander like that! Well not HIS Alexander, but hey, the day was still young.

"He just has something about him, those beautiful blue eyes." Magnus thought back to when he had first seen him.

Magnus wasn't exactly thrilled about his job, working with his roommate Raphael made it tolerable. Every day was the same, coffee zombies would come grumble their orders and leave. The occasional few would come and enjoy pastries with their caffeine. Every day the same. Except that day.

Raphael was manning the orders and Magnus was cleaning the tables when the bells at the door let them know someone had walked in. A scraggily looking boy walked in and looked around the near empty café. Magnus felt his heart drum a happy tune as he looked him up and down. Cute, a little scruffy, tall. Not bad, but then he caught his eyes. BLUE. The most gorgeous shade of blue that poets wrote anthologies about. He inelegantly ran behind the counter.

"You're at The Institute, what do you want?" Raphael muttered, giving up on using the designated saying that the owner had tried and failed to get him to use.

"Can I get a coffee?" replied the handsome boy.

"It's a coffee shop buddy. Be more specifi- OH MY GOD!" Raphael sassily replied before yelling as a flying bucket of water hit him hard.

Magnus dived in front of him locking eyes with the new stranger "Oh, clumsy me! Sorry Raphe. Maybe you should go to the back and clean up. I'll man the counter!" Never once turning to look at the mess he'd 'accidently' caused. Raphael muttered a string of curse words in Spanish under his breath.

"That's a dollar to the swear jar" Magnus sang as Raphael pleasantly gave him the finger and retreated to the back.

"So sorry about that I guess I'm a klutz today!" Still looking at the boy.

"Th-That's fine. I'm the same way" rushed out the boy their eyes still locked.

"So welcome to the institute! What do I have the honor of making for you today?"

"Small coffee. Black. Please." Was all he had as the boy finally ripped his eyes away. The most adorable tint of pink on his cheeks.

"Coming right up for you! What's your name?"

"um. Why?" he stuttered.

"Well. Here at the Institute we PRIED ourselves in knowing whose coffee we are making!" truth be told, not really. Magnus couldn't care less about the other Johns and Janes and bobs and whatevers. Heck, he'd forget their name in a second anyways, but he'd definitely remember his.

"Alexander. Wait. No. Alec. Order for Alec" was all he managed putting 2 dollars on the counter and running away.

Alexander, hmm. Magnus thought. Perfect name for a perfect looking boy.

That had been several months back, and almost every day since then Alexander had come in. Always in the same little corner, with a cup of black coffee, typing away like a man on a mission. At least today Magnus had built up the nerve to do something about it.

Time ticked by as Magnus relieved the conversation in his head lovingly, until the little nagging voice of reason finally came in. What if the boy didn't like him. What if he scared him off by being to forward! What if's plaguing his head for almost the entire hour until he saw him stand to leave, and for the first time rather than staring at his boots or leaving in a rush, Alexander stopped to look back and caught Magnus' eyes. A small smile on his lips he lifted his hand in a small wave. He gave a simple goodbye as he walked out the door, something that had never happened before. Magnus melted where he stood. A new hope blossoming as he dreamed about maybe trying again tomorrow.

The rest of the shift was horrible compared to his morning. Nothing happened, and Raphael continued with his sass up until it was the end of their shifts.

They tidied up their stations as the new girl Clary and another boy Simon swapped them out. Magnus practically pranced to the time clock, signaling his freedom, as he almost ran out the door.

Magnus opened the door and made his way into the cozy loft, Raphael close at his heels. Home was the best place to be, it had his makeup, clothes, and his computer.

Magnus quickly shed off the clothes he had worn to work and slid into something more comfortable, sliding into his favorite chair at his desk. He flipped his computer on and opened up the browser, clicking the bookmark to his favorite site.

Welcome @Magicalfanboii.

He followed his routine of clearing his messages and notifications. He loved this world and he could admit he was proud of how well the online community had taken him in. Even with all the smut he put up sometimes. The site had proved to be an escape for him back in days where he hadn't exactly been comfortable with himself, and now it felt like an extension of home. With his inbox cleared and comments answered he finally let himself go to his reading library and nearly squealed like the excited fangirl he was when he saw the notification.

@a-Rainbow-Dressed-in-BLACK has updated story. Chapter 16: Taste of You now available.

Magnus couldn't believe his luck, first his semi-success with Alexander, and now his favorite writer had updated a new chapter! Could the day get any better?! This particular writer had appeared almost out of thin air and after entering one of his small contests he'd quickly won a place in Magnus' heart with his writing.  Magnus pulled his leg up to his chest and began to read, the whole time bouncing in his seat in excitement.

He was reaching the end of the new story part, a huge smile on his face. The chapter was MAGICAL everything he could dream in a fanfiction, he didn't want it to end.

He read the last paragraph:

Castiel reached for the cup taking a drink while looking deep into Dean's startled eyes. "One for the road" he said stealing a swig of the black gold. A wink to his eyes as Dean's soul was set on fire. Dean reached for the blessed mug and brought it to his mouth, ensuring to place his lips where his loving angel's lips had previously been. He closed his eyes and for a moment, he dreamed instead it was his lips he was touching and not the unforgiving hardness of a porcelain mug. Maybe soon. He thought to himself as he watched the gorgeous man walk away.

Magnus shot up in his seat, and read the last paragraph several times. Wait. That couldn't be right, it was almost exactly as what he'd done! No. There was no way it could be a coincidence, but also no way Alexander could have written this. Right?

Magnus went to the authors main page and looked for the bio.

Name: Nope

Age: too old

Location: Somewhere in New York

About me: Just a guy; who likes guys.

Magnus looked at the page for minutes, trying to decipher something to prove him right, but found nothing.

"RAPHAELLLLLLLLL!" He yelled at the top of his lungs as his roommate ran into his bedroom.

"What is it!" he asked in a panic prepared to fight whatever threat was in the room.

"I think rainbow dressed in black is Alexander!!"

Raphael gave Magnus a look to kill. "So, you screamed for me for that? How do you know?"

"I don't my dear Raphael, but tomorrow. You and I will figure it out for sure!"

Raphael rolled his eyes and walked away. Already regretting whatever was going to happen tomorrow.

Magnus sat back in his chair and typed in a comment to the chapter.

I can only imagine you are as amazing as this chapter was, I look forward to finding out for sure.

Magnus shut off his computer and started to plan. Tomorrow couldn't come fast enough.
