Warnings: none! Just fluff♡
The bakery today was oddly quiet and less hectic than the past few days, as for it was finally fall. People have been rushing in to get the new fall drinks and pastries, making work so much busier than the usual quiet days it has.
Today you get a new customer, cute guy, tall, dirty blonde, beautiful blue eyes and a nice smile. He clears his throat, "Ahem, excuse me ma'am? I was wondering if you could maybe suggest me something to get here? I'm new to this area and a lot of people seem to like your bakery" He chuckles nervously.
You smile at his nervousness, "Of course sir. Well I can recommend maybe pumpkin scones and some hot drink like a hot chocolate? " You suggest to the man.
"Sure, I'll take that" He smiles warmly. "Alright then, your total will be $8.50" you ring him up. He pays and you go and make his drink and give him a fresh scone and push it towards him.
He takes a bite and his eyes widen, almost like those silly cartoon characters. You giggle slightly at his reaction. He lets out a small moan, wiping his mouth. "This is so good, no wonder you always have people here! I'll definitely be coming here more often" He talks in between bites.
You admire the man before you, he seems so happy indulging what you just gave him. He has a sheepish grin as he finishes eating and drinking his hot chocolate.
"No joke, this is absolutely delicious. Is this your cafe?" He asks. "Well, yes, this is my bakery, I'm the owner. My name is y/n, nice to meet you" you offer your hand for a handshake.
He takes it and grips your hand for a second longer, maintaining intense eye contact that makes your cheeks flush a bit. "I'll be around the area for a while, so expect me to be here often" he grabs the pastry and drink. "See you around gorgeous" he throws a playful wink at you. You wave, but your face remains flushed from his flirtatious nature.
As he promised, he did start coming to your bakery, fairly often. He would come mostly to chat, sometimes buy because he liked complimenting your pastries. Then finally, he built up the courage to get your number.
"Hey, I feel like it's been a while that we've known each other and I wanted to ask if I could maybe get your number? If that's ok of course" he chuckles nervously. You smirk slightly, pushing your phones toward him, the empty contact slot on your screen in front of him.
"Go ahead then." He smiles softly, adding his contact to your phone. "There, now I have the pretty owner's number" he said playfully. You roll your eyes, "Alright Hayden, you can go now. You're lingering too much" you say jokingly. "Ah damn, getting kicked out like always. Well, expect many messages from me or calls" he says as he walks out.
And so he did, mostly anytime he was free or not busy doing his shoots, he would call you about your day, how you have been, he would tell you his day. These calls later extended to nightly calls, to small little dates. Finally, he took you to a nice place for a date...a for real date.
He waited for you at a nice fancy restaurant. His leg was bouncing up and down underneath the table, he kept checking the time on his watch. His eyes kept looking at the door, awaiting your presence.
You finally come, his breath hitches at your beauty, well, he always does that when he sees you. He gets up immediately, pulling out your chair for you. He had the food ready and the wine ready as well.
He clears his throat, "Ahem, y/n..." he pushes his neat, slightly slicked hair back. You raise your eyebrow, "Yes Hayden?" "Well, I wanted to ask you something that I've been meaning to ask for a while" he chuckles nervously.
You lean forward, now attentive to what he has to say. "Well, when I first saw you at your bakery, i already thought you were really gorgeous and cute. And as we got to know each other and the calls and the little dates, I got more attracted to how you are as a person as well. And I wanted to ask you if...if you maybe...maybe want to date...me?" He smiles weakly, his hands slightly sweaty.
You reach for his hands, squeezing them gently. "Oh Hayden, I'd love to date you. You're such a sweet guy and my type." A huge smile plasters on his face, he squeezes your hands back, bringing them to his lips and kissing your knuckles.
"Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I'm so happy, you make me so happy" he looks at you with eyes of love and adoration. You blush at his words. "Oh stop, you're just biased and being a sap" you say jokingly. "Touché, you got me there. But i mean it. I'm glad your my girlfriend now." He leans in closer to you, capturing your lips in a soft, gentle kiss.
You kiss back, time feeling slow around you both. As you both pull away, he looks at you with a sappy smile. "I'm glad I went to your bakery that day." "So am I" you tease. The night passes before you, a nice gentle glow of this new relationship that has bloomed before you both. Thank God it was all because of your bakery.
