Green eyes glared into his own brown as he began to rapidly blink away the sleep that tugged at his face. Hands that were so rudely snapping in his ears just moments before were now crossed and filled with annoyance as Dani, one of the evening shift workers at the cafe, continued glaring at him. [color=#758B64]"It's ten o' five,"[/color] was all she said. Jules' eyes drifted over to the counter from the table he'd been sitting at and indeed it looked like the night shift workers were already filing in. There was [color=MediumPurple]Matina[/color], doing her nightly routine of [color=mediumpurple][i]"I totally didn't eat that pastry guys I don't know what you're talking about hey let's jump to this topic now"[/i][/color] as per usual. [color=1F7334]Fara[/color] was ogling [color=salmon]April[/color] as per usual. [color=BDA0CB]Ursula[/color] was reading her weird eldritch book as per usual. [color=7ea7d8] Billie[/color] had her harried and hurried look as per usual. The [color=ed1c24]boss[/color] was being a hardass as per usual. The [color=a187be]new girl[/color] though, wasn't usual. Suddenly much more interested in what new things may be happening but no less awake, Jules turned back to Dani (who was still glaring) and attempted to say something smart and witty and snarky, something that would totally make her regret waking him up, something that would shame her, her ancestors, and her cow. [color=pink]"You're a ten o' fiver."[/color] was what actually dribbled out of his mouth. Dani rolled her eyes and shouldered her bag as walked out the door and skated off towards campus. He watched her for a second or two before he remembered for the second time why she had pointed out the time to him and why everyone at the crowded counter looked so familiar. The still sleepy student silently swore as he started shoving all of his study materials that he previously napping on into his bag and slid his way towards the front counter. Lavender hair flowed through the small crowd, glowing under the gentle cafe light as Jules tied his hair back into a small pony tail and hurriedly tied on his apron, throwing his bag behind the counter once he was done. Billie was mopping, Matina was wrapped around the new girl, Fara was drilling Matina, and Ursala was... Ursala'ing. Did that mean he was on cash duty? He hated cash duty. Oh well. He gave a quick [color=pink]"Hey"[/color] and a little salute to all the employees gathered, deftly taking his position at the register and did the usual pre-check before turning towards the student who had just lined up and shining him with an easy smile. Tall, cute, glasses were a plus, and ordered a [color=pink]"small aztec mocha for Freddy,"[/color] Jules called out behind him, sending Freddy off with a wink and a thanks. With no one else waiting behind him, Jules turned around and flashed an equally easy smile to the new girl, trusting someone was assigned to drinks and extending a hand out to the small blonde. [color=pink]"Jules, late boy number 1, nice to meet you."[/color]
