Chapter 38
“Your first love is your first love. It cannot be analyzed, explained, or forgotten.”
Aisling Bea
My mom had been right about the little cafe in town ~ it was cute and cozy. They also just had good coffee, much better
than the black sludge that Steve was drinking in his thermos every morning.
After I’d gone with her that first night, I started going there on my own. Sometimes I’d take a book to read, and other
times I would just people-watch with steaming hot coffee in my hand. \°)
Yorba Linda was definitely a small town, there was no denying that. Besides a grocery store, a movie theater, a library, and
the little cafe, there were just houses here. (*
But it was also peaceful and the people were nice but not intrusive. I was used to living in a small town — if you could
call the Blacktooth Pack a town ~ but the pack had never felt peaceful.
Everyone had heightened emotions, mates were all over each other, and people thought they were entitled to know
every aspect of your life. It probably had to do with their “mind link,” but as a human, it wasn’t great. Yorba Linda
might’ve been small, but nobody bothered you. People
went about their business and didn’t inquire about yours. It was nice. )
After ten days in the little town, I found myself spending another afternoon in the coffee shop. This time, I was equipped
with some mystery novel I’d pulled off mom’s bookshelf. Her collection was sparse, so I would need to make a run to the
local library soon.
I walked up to the coffee shop counter to place my order. The shop was a little busy, and I watched the barista ~ a
college-aged girl with dyed purple hair whose nametag read Amber ~ multitask like a pro.
Geez, she really moves fast. (: She slid someone’s mocha down the counter and then turned to me. Despite how quickly
she seemed to be working, there wasn’t a hair out
of place. She didn’t seem to be breaking a sweat. (=
“What can I get you?” she asked with a bright smile, and I saw her eyes
widen when she looked at me. “Woah,” she muttered under her breath. )
My cheeks instantly flushed. Why is she staring at me like that? “What?” I couldn’t help but ask. She was still staring. “Do
