Scorose Coffee Shop AUs tho
Scorpius is the cute barista in this tiny coffee shop that is filled with tons of potted plants and weird artwork
Rose is the frantic college student looking for a good place to cram before finals
She’s sick of all the bigger coffee shops because she HATES seeing people that she knows when she’s out in public
So she finds this really tiny little place and starts going there instead
Scorpius notices that she’s studying frantically and starts silently coming over to refill her cup
At one point she starts muttering under her breath about how she can’t see the bloody difference between rococo and romantic art and how she’s totally going to bomb her art history final
And Scor is a total artsy nerd so he comes over and starts helping her
But she comes in the next day
And since no one else is there they kinda end up sitting on the counter of the coffee shop arguing about stuff and quizzing each other on vocab terms
(Scorpius is good at all the art history stuff but he’s completely lost when it comes to government and politics, but Rose is good at that)
Pretty soon Rose is coming in every day
Scorpius hates that she always drinks black coffee so he starts making these really weird drinks like vanilla mint swirl
She starts rearranging the plants and artwork and tidies things up so the place actually looks nice
He tries to teach her how the coffee machine works and she nearly blows the whole thing up
Then she finds the cans of whipped cream
So obviously they have a whipped cream war
And then they sort of end up kissing
(Even though they both have whipped cream in their hair)
And at that exact moment Scorpius’s boss comes by
Rose uses scary political terms to convince the boss not to fire Scorpius
A few weeks later, the boss comes by and finds that Scorpius and Rose have organized an open mic event and cleaned up the entire cafe and there are actually people there
Rose is named manager of the coffee shop
In the end Scorpius makes a coconut-cinnamon mocha that Rose loves
