Smitten

Summary:

Emori works at a diner. One of the regulars is very cute.

Notes:

Officially done with finals and back from the dead! This one is cute and fun, and I really liked writing it. You can find the fic that this is based on here. I'm still debating if I want to put them in a series or not, but I wanted them linked together in some way.

Work Text:

It wasn’t hard to memorize John’s coffee order because he only ever drinks it black. No cream, no sugar, like a sociopath.

“Like your soul,” Emori says, each time she sets it in front of him. She knows that’s not true though, from how he grins at her—it amuses her a little, how smitten he is, and it makes her a little giddy when he texts the number she wrote on his receipt:

Hey, this is the soulless guy from Becca’s

Emori can’t conceal her smile as she rolls her eyes. Maybe he’s not the only one who’s smitten.
