@lovesaidno ; based on this.
awkward, that is the only word that lewis could use right now to express the feeling pulsing through his body. he had avoided eye contact with them as soon as he’d sat down, the breath knocked from his body as he recognized that familiar face. he was never one to shag and ditch, but when he’d woken up that morning a few days earlier, his head throbbing with the toxins of the alcohol he had poured down his neck, he’d just grabbed his clothes and ran. he didn’t even leave a note, he hadn’t even got their number. it was a rookie mistake and this was karma’s way of pointing out how much of an asshole he had been right then. his eyes were training on the table as he read the menu over and over again, memorizing each word in the hopes he could distract himself from the feeling of guilt creeping into his chest. his head shot up at the call of his name and he just smiled at the waitress beside him, “just a coffee for me please.” he mumbled, before turning his head, hoping to catch their eye, if only to offer an apology.
