Cake Shop
Human AU
Anxiety's P.O.V
I'm sitting behind the counter of my cake shop scrolling through Tumblr, when Logan walks out of the kitchen.
"We are out of butter, and flour, and eggs, and basically all the key ingredients of making a cake" he sighs, leaning against the counter, taking of his glasses and pinching the bridge of his nose
I groan. I look at the tip cup in front of me. Logan picks it up.
"Are you sure?" he implies, I nod, he puts his glasses back on, scoops out the money and leaves to get what we need. I go back to Tumblr.
~20 min later~
I hear the bell on the door ring, I look up and see a handsome man come in. he looked like a prince or something.
"What is your finest cake!?" he asks with a posh accent. I close my gaping mouth and I look around,
"Uhhhh, well, I guess, uhhh" I look around, sure we had some good cakes, but our finest? Who even says that now!?? I point to a few,
"Those ... I guess" shrugging, He locks eyes with me,
'Holy sh!t' was all I could think, his eyes were such a beautiful chocolate brown. He finaly breaks eye contact with me after what feels like FOREVER, to look around.
"It's my niece's birthday, she likes Princess', Fairies, Unicorns-"
"Unicorns!? I have a cake around the back that's a unicorn cross Pegasus she might like" I interrupt him, I lift up the counter and let him though, we pass through the kitchen and on a silver desk, was the cake.
"Woah, you weren't kidding when you said 'Amazing cake factory'" the man's eyes are wide
'Must be talking about our sign' I think
"How much?" he asks
"Uhhh, I Don't know, you'll have to wait for my co-worker, Logan, he does that numbers and stuff"
I say, where was he, its been nearly half an hour.
"That's fine, here" he writes on his red notepad he had in his pocket, and on it was his number.
"Call me when he comes back" he walks out of the kitchen with me trailing behind, he walks up to the door, he turns back to me
"You really are talented, great job" he walks out
"T,thanks" I say, even though he's gone. I sit back down
"Damn he's cute - wait"
WHAT!?! He might not even be – JESUS! I don't even know his name! I look down at his number
43 123 4507 – Roman
(just a random number, don't even try it, it might actually belong to someone, lol, how awkward)
Huh, so his name is Roman, its ... different, like mine, I DIDN'T EVEN TELL HIM MY NAME!
"Uuuuugh why am I like this" I groan, laying my head on the counter.
"Hello, a little help please" I look up at the door
"LOGAN! Where have you been! It's been half an hour!" I exclaim, helping him with the bags of ingredients.
"Sorry, but there was a library, and it said it had new books, and, well, you know me..." he trails, I smile a bit and help him carry the bags through to the kitchen,
"Logan, how much would the Unicorn/Pegasus cake be?" I remembered as I saw the cake, he puts down the bags and looks over at it,
"Hmm, well, how long did it take you to make?" he asks
"A whole day"
"How much cake batter, icing, and fondant did you use?" Logan asks again, putting the flour bags up on the shelf, next to the others I put up
"I don't know, a lot?" I second guess myself
"Well, if you cant estimate how much you used accurately, I guess, around $150" he states
"$150!?! Are you SURE!?" that's a lot, though it is a nice cake.
"Yes, it could be more if you gave me the measurements"
I sigh, and take out the piece of paper Roman gave me, and my phone.
"What's that?" Logan asks, filling the sugar containers
"Oh, we got a customer when you were out, and he wanted a cake for his nieces birthday party, and well, he really liked this one" I explain as I dial his number, I walk out of the kitchen to the front of the shop and paced around.
"Hello?" Romans musical voice asked
"Hi, I have the price of the cake" I could feel my face heat up, do I really like this guy? JEEZ!
"Oh, yes, uhh, sorry I didn't catch your name before" oh sh!t, he's gonna laugh, its so stupid!
"I uhh, y, yeah, its, uhh, p, please don't l, laugh" stupid STUTTERING!
"Why would I?" ok, here its goes
"It's Virgil" I shut my eyes, waiting for the laughter
"Oh, thats a nice name, why would I laugh?" Roman said, wait, he really thinks so?
"I uhh, doesn't matter I have the price for the cake" I change the subject
"Oh right, how much?" he asks, damn his beautiful voice.
"It's, uhh, one fifty" it's a lot, will he say no? will I ever see him again? Maybe I should have lied, said it was cheaper, maybe I
"Really? That's it? I thought it would be fore than that! Like, $500!" did he really think it was that good?
"N,no, its one hundred and fifty dollars, do you really think its that good?" I question
"Yeah! Its AMAZZZZZING! I still can't believe you did it BY. YOUR. SELF! You sure you didn't have anyone help you?" he exclaims
"No, just me" I smile
"When should I pick it up? The party is on Saturday" he asks, I look at the calendar, its Thursday.
"Yeah, you can pick it up then, or whenever you think you should" I mumble
"Ok, great! Thank you so much Virgil!" he said
"N,no worries" I answer, the line went dead.
"Well?" Logan is standing behind the cash register counting what we earned today, I flip the sign from 'OPEN' to 'CLOSED' and joined.
"fifteen ten, what did you get?" Logan finishes counting his pile
"seven fifty" I answer
"Soooooo, two thousand ... three hundred and ten ... !" I quickly do the math before he does
"Precisely" Logan stashes the money in the safe out back in the kitchen.
"Farewell, Virgil" he leaves, I leave too after locking up and go home.
SHOULD I MAKE A PART TWO?!?
