his presence around the bakery had always been overwhelming but he would always bring in a crowd with him who was always willing to buy whatever he touched or looked at. she would be blind to say he wasn't attractive but her mother always warned her about guys just like him. they tend to be sweet and try to romance you with their words and the small irises within their eyes. she gave him a small smile as she grabbed the receipt, clearing her throat as she placed it down on top of the box of pastries. ❛ im sorry, my mother taught me to always have manners, i do hope you have a good day, si-i mean, orion. ❜ she looked away from him for a brief moment, the tips of her ears turning red at his following question. he didn't seem like the type to give up and neither was she. ❛im actually closing up shop today so im sure a busy guy like you won't have time to be around, besides you have plenty of girls drooling over you go get one of their numbers. ❜ she gave him a smile before she turned back to finish the inventory booking.

she’s     so     surgical     the     way     she     operates     ,     all     the     yes     sir     ,     no     sir     politeness     that     orion     wasn’t     accustomed     to     .     he     was     living     in     a     dorm     room     with     five     other     men     ,     politeness     had     gone     out     the     window     after     a     week     .     “     aren’t     we     familiar     enough     now     to     drop     the     formality     ?     i’m     in     here     almost     every     second     day     ,     you     know     my     name     ,     i     know     yours     –     ”     he     leans     himself     closer     ,     squinting     at     the     small     cursive     letters     on     the     name     tag     pinned     to     her     chest     .     “     lily     ,     ”     a     inviting     smile     pulling     his     mouth     upward     .     the     flush     that     kissed     her     ears     pink     doesn’t     go     unnoticed     ,     but     he’s     not     about     to     embarrass     the     girl     by     pointing     it     out     when     he’s     trying     to     hit     on     her     .     “     drooling     girls     ?     i     never     noticed     them     ,     ”     trying     not     to     lay     things     on     too     thick     ,     orion     hopes     she     might     read     through     the     lines     that     she     is     the     only     one     he’s     interested     in     .     “     they’ve     got     someone     like     you     closing     -     alone     ?     ”     taking     the     opportunity     to     allow     his     gaze     to     wander     over     her     frame     ,     plastering     a     convincing     look     of     concern     across     his     features     .     “     you     shouldn’t     be     here     alone     so     late     at     night     ,     let     me     keep     you     company     ,     ”     gaze     moving     back     to     her     features     ,     watching     with     anticipation     for     her     answer     .     “     besides     ,     how     else     am     i     supposed     to     get     your     number     ?     ”

                                           “and i suppose you get everything you want like a little brat?” on most occasions, she doesn’t care to argue with others like this. she finds it pointless and a waste of energy... and it is! but something about archer’s face irked her too much. she had to fight him. she looks down at the bag in her seat, face unmoving as she grabs it, dropping it on the ground. “and now it’s not.” frankie plops back down in her seat, head tilted up at him. “

“    fairly    often    ,    yes    –    so    let’s    not    break    the    trend    ,    there’s    plenty    of    other    seats    for    you    besides    this    one    .    don’t    be    difficult    .    ”    archer    was    aware    of    how    silly    his    argument    sounded    ,    he    could    have    easily    done    the    same    thing    ,    but    he    was    too    committed    to    annoying    the    female    to    give    in    now    .    “    fine    ,    you    don’t    want    to    give    me    that    seat    ,    i’ll    just    take    this    one    .    ”    he    plants    himself    in    the    seat    next    to    her    ,    making    sure    to    shove    his    arm    on    the    rest    between    them    .

she looked up from her inventory book and smiled, he always came into the bakery at the same time like clockwork. he would flirt and smile at anyone that dared to give him any attention she always vowed to do the opposite. she grabbed a pastry box and walked over to the display her small hand reaching in to place one of each flavor of their danishes into the box before walking back over to the register. ❛ that will be ten dollars please, and im sorry sir, im not allowed to give out my number during work hours. ❜

since    pre-debut    orion    had    been    frequenting    the    bakery    ,    it    was    only    a    short    distance    from    his    agency    and    the    members    all    appreciated    their    sweets    .    it    helped    that    the    female    that    worked    the    counter    was    attractive    .    which    had    only    prompted    him    to    visit    more    often    .    “    sir    is    something    people    call    my    father    ,    you    can    just    call    me    orion    ,    ”    his    words    accompanied    by    a    wink    ,    placing    his    card    against    the    tap    function    to    pay    .    “    so    you    can    give    me    your    number    after    hours    —    what    time    do    you    get    off    ?    ”    he    was    nothing    if    not    persistent    ,    especially    when    his    ego    was    on    the    line    .    elio    would    have    to    eat    his    words    when    orion    landed    a    date    with    the    girl    .

                                        frankie doesn’t bother concealing her amusement, laugh-scoffing at his childlike demand. “you can’t be serious.” she gets up but only to kneel on the seat, checking the rest of the mostly empty bus. “i don’t know if you noticed but there are other window seats. i can’t imagine how this one, the one i’m already on, is any better than the others.”

he’d    blame    his    other    members    for    making    the    girl    feel    comfortable    enough    to    stand    up    to    him    ,    they’d    been    feeding    her    some    kind    of    false    hope    she    might    be    on    her    way    to    securing    a    full    time    spot    on    their    tour    .    not    if    archer    had    anything    to    do    with    it    .    “    i    don’t    need    to    defend    anything    to    you    ,    i    want    that    seat    ,    ”    as    childish    as    it    might    be    ,    archer    takes    advantage    of    her    sitting    up    to    survey    the    rest    of    the    open    seats    to    shove    his    backpack    onto    the    seat    .    stretched    across    the    first    seat    he    peered    up    at    her    ,    a    confident    grin    splitting    his    lips    .    “    see    my    bags    already    there    .    ”

                                      frankie looks up from her bag of chips with a raised brow, still chewing as she’s far too comfortable where she is to move. “last i checked, it didn’t have your name on it so, uh, you can sit somewhere else.”

“    aren’t    you    a    guest    on    this    tour    ?   ”    archer    hardly    let    the    words    leave    her    mouth    before    he    snarked    back    .    something    about    the    female    got    under    his    skin    and    she’d    been    doing    it    successfully    since    the    day    they’d    met    .    “    i    like    the    window    seat    –    that    window    seat    ,    so    move    .    ”
