FIVE
~ Byun Baekhyun ~
After showering and getting changed into comfortable clothes he was glad to see that the message he had wrote for himself on the back of his hand was still there, faded but there nonetheless. Grabbing his keys and slipping on his shoes Baekhyun rushed next door.
"Baek?"
"Hey Lay, the principal caught up with me today and..."
"He gave you the rest of the week off I know"
Baekhyun was shocked, usually what happened at school wasn't always reported to the other teachers around.
"Oh.." Baekhyun breathed his eyes fallening to the floor in guilt and awkwardness. "About earlier I need to apologise"
"You don't need to apologise for anything, I understand why you did what you did, I pressed you and you got annoyed it happens Baek don't be too upset about it okay, besides I can't stay mad at you forever you know"
Baekhyun couldn't help but laugh as Yixing sent him a little wink in return. "Thanks Hyung"
"So has Kyle called you?"
Baekhyun raised a brow. What could that hyung need now?
"No" he admitted with a shake of his head. "has he been looking for me?"
"He called me earlier and asked if I could get you out of school early so you can go help in the cafe, he needs some help with the new customers since he moved. I told him that you were told to rest but if you're up for it, I could call him back and say you could"
"I'd love to" Baekhyun said through a smile. He loved working at Kyle's café, the atmosphere was always warm and bubbly, Baekhyun felt really at home there. The cafe's owner had received a promotion which allowed the cafe to receive more money to open up into a larger building.
"Then you go get ready and I'll call him back, How does a shift at 6 sound?"
"Will I be there till closing?" Baekhyun asked hopefully, earning a laugh and chuckle from Lay.
"Yeah but only if you are up for it"
"I'm not sick you know" Baekhyun teased sticking out his tongue. Yixing just rolled his eyes.
"Alright fine, I'll organise him to allow you a shift at 6 and it just moved down the street. Harlem street"
Baekhyun grinned and nodded thanking his hyung and running back into his apartment. Glancing at the clock he sighed, 2 hours to go.
Since the cafe was rather close Baekhyun decided to write the note on his hand and begin playing his PlayStation.
As the time ticked by he was getting engrossed in the game his eyes glancing from the controller to the television and back again. When the idea crossed his mind and his eyes shifted to his hand Baekhyun smiled and stood up.
Writing things down was beginning to become a very easy thing to use when needing to remember something.
Standing up and retreating to his room, after turing off the station, he began changing into the clothes he usually changed into for the shifts he offered to help out with.
A pair of black jeans and a black short sleeved shirt, paired with some black and white converse. With a little touch of makeup and a line of eyeliner Baekhyun deemed himself worthy to attend people as their waiter from the café.
Grabbing his keys and phone Baekhyun skipped out the door and out into the hallway where Yixing met him with a smile.
"I decided that I may as well come and visit work with you, I'm craving a hot cup of coffee"
Baekhyun rolled his eyes, a small smile playing on his lips as he nodded "Alright then come on"
Together the both of them exited the apartment complex and down the street to Kyle's cafe.
Yixing held the door open and Baekhyun walked in, getting greeted by a small blonde haired man with blue eyes. Kyle was an American coffeemaker who came to Korean to expand his coffee chains but hadn't received much luck. Baekhyun had been a very common customer always ordering the strawberry cake slices and smoothie that they also served there. This was the reason Kyle found him a very trustworthy person and gave him some part time jobs.
"Baekhyun thank God you showed up aprons behind the counter could you be on the register and maybe waiting tables today?"
Baekhyun smiled and said his goodbyes to Yixing who went in search of a booth were he could finish correcting the Chinese tests he had given his class.
"Sure no problem" Baekhyun grinned back at Kyle who held out the apron with a small smile.
"Thanks Baek that means alot"
Baekhyun did nothing except wave him off and take the apron from his bosses hand. Kyle rushed off the make drinks while Baekhyun scurried behind the register to start on the line of people waiting to order.
《Park Chanyeol》
Groaning into his pillow Chanyeol wanted to do nothing more than sleep, it was only 4pm and he thought a nap would do his tired body and muscles some help but his eyes and mind thought against the idea.
Flipping over to stare at his ceiling like he had been doing for the past couple hours, Chanyeol let out a breath. His mind was whizzing with ways he could maybe find out about his mate.
The tingling feeling once again took to his hand and Chanyeol could do nothing but feel excitement and a little worry as his eyes turned to the back of his hand.
Kyle's cafe
Harlem street
6pm
Chanyeol could feel his cheeks burn and his fingers tingle. He had just been thinking of ways to find his mate yet his mate was already a few steps ahead of him.
Excitement bubbled over in his stomach and Chanyeol immediately jumped to his legs and ran to the shower. Getting into the warm water his eyes gazed over his arm that had recently been inked with a large plant image but now it held nothing but the word beautfiul. Turning his hand away from the rush of the water Chanyeol smiled noticing the rest of the ink.
His future was resting on the back of his hand. His mate was going to be there at exactly 6pm. The happy ending was nearing and Chanyeol couldn't wait to finally see who he would become the luckiest vampire in the world over.

W
hen Yixing left I was finally able to focus on the tasks I needed to. I cleaned the tables and took orders of food and of drinks. Making sure that a smile covered my face the entire time.
One particular customer seemed to intrigue me, he came in about thirty minutes ago and just sat down, his eyes scanning the room for someone. It looked important but it also looked like he was a lonely dude that got stood up.
I didn't let it eat away at me, I'm a very curious person but I know when to keep myself to myself. So to distract myself I continued taking orders and cleaning tables.
Then that weird sensation started to happen again but this time it was on my right arm instead of my right.
Where are you?
I couldn't help but raise a brow. What was this and hoe did it come to happen on my arm?
I studied the writing for a bit, very fancy and easy to read writing while my own was rushed and not very easy to read.
At first I was freaked out but a calming feeling ran throughout my body. This has happened before, When I drew the picture, the word beautiful had come on my wrist almost like magic.
Curiosity flooded my brain as I pulled out a pen from the apron on my waist. I placed it gently on my left arm and drew a line under the address of the cafe I had written earlier.
Kyle's cafe
Harlem street
6pm
Something like this only happens in movies, like for example Harry Potter when he found the book of Tom Riddle in The Chamber Of Secrets.
My eyes widened.
Did that mean I could possibly be a wiz-
"Waiter!?"
Turning my head to the side I noticed an older man on the counter glaring at me. How long has he been standing there?
"Oh I'm sorry Sir, what could I get you?"
"Actually I was going to ask your number but spaced out"
"Ah" I bowed my head "I'm sorry Sir but I can't give out personal information when I'm on shift"
"Then I guess I'll have to wait till after your work hours are done them won't I" he winked.
The tingling sensation came back but it was on my left wrist just under the beautiful word.
Beautiful
Short?
I raised my brow at my wrist, a slam on the counter made me look up.
"My eyes are up here princess"
Reaching for my pen with a smile to the man I quickly ticked beside the word.
Short? ✔
Almost immediately I felt another word being written into my skin.
"Aren't you going to answer my question?"
"I-i'm sorry? What question?"
Brown hair? ✔
"About after your shift?"
Uniform? ✔
"I'm not sure what you mean" I explained to the man who seemed to be pretty annoyed I was paying more attention to my arm instead of him.
"I'm asking you if I can have your number!"
"And I told you I don't give it out while I'm on shift"
Found you
"You can't serious think that that's a rule right?"
My mouth was gapping, they found me?
"Will you just give me your fucking number?!"
"Hey babe"
Looking up from my arm I came face to face with the mysterious guy from earlier. He was standing right next to the guy who was constantly asking for my number, yet he towered over him by a head.
"Babe?" The man's voice was nothing but a whisper.
"Oh hello sorry did I interrupt your order my apologises, I just couldn't wait to bring my boyfriend out to dinner to celebrate"
I turned my eyes to the man who wouldn't take his eyes off the tall giant neither one of us have met before.
"Celebrate? Could I ask what you could possibly be celebrating at such a young age?"
"Oh well if you must know, I was awarded a C.E.O position on my father's company"
I could do nothing but allow my mouth to drop. He was so young possibly younger than me and already has his life in order while here I was no parents, going average in school and busting my ass to help out in this cafe. Guess some people have it easier.
"C-congratulations honey i-i'm so proud of you" I stuttered a little afraid of what could possibly happen.
The man gave us a hate filled glare before leaving the counter and going outside.
The guy that came to rescue me sighed and placed both elbows on the counter, his head fallening into them and gazing at me as he did so.
"Th-thank you for helping me" I blushed feeling slightly uncomfortable under his gaze.
"Ah don't mention it, I'm glad I could help" he grinned showcasing his beautifully sculptured teeth.
"Can I get you anything?" I wondered gazing down at the pen that I had abandoned once I seen the words 'found you' impressed on my arm.
"Could I ask for a coffee?" He wondered pulling out his wallet.
"Sure" I smiled clicking the buttons on the register.
"Oh and whatever you want to eat"
I could feel my cheeks burn as I nodded and punched in my order too.
"That's 5 dollars please"
Glancing down at the more in his hand I couldn't help but notice words on his arm and wrist, hidden slightly behind his long sleeve.
"You have tattoos?" I wondered taking the money and getting the change.
"Well not really" he explained rolling up the sleeve, I had my eyes in the register but as soon as I closed it up and looked back up I could see the exact words I had written on my own arm.
"Beautiful, short, Brown hair, uniform, Found you" I whispered, My eyes widening.
"After so long I finally found you" he grinned.
