The coffee was hot. Steaming hot as I poured it into his cup. It warmed my hands through the pristine white china. I set it down on his tray, smelling it and closing my eyes. His lips would touch the crisp edge of this cup. The coffee would pour into his mouth and warm it. He would bite into the scone that I have prepared for him with love, care, and extra everything. I set this one aside from the rest. He has been coming to my little cafe every Saturday and Sunday since it opened. He sits in the same place, drinks the same coffee, eats the same scones. He is my beautiful constant, and one day, I will build up the courage I need to go over there and talk to him and stop loving him from afar.

The Café In Manahatta

Part Fourteen

I felt doomed.

I love my sister, I really do, but in that moment, I felt a doom wash over me, and I had a feeling that it was because of my daydreams…yet…they were more then that now. Then again, the fact that I was imagining him here with me at every possible moment was not a good thing. I didn't know when it had started, but during that last week, I could see him. Feel him. Reach out and touch him. I knew nothing about my White Rose too. How could I tell my sister everything about him, when I knew nothing?

“There is not much to tell.”

“You can start by explaining to me why you are refusing to take off tomorrow. Does he come in on Sundays?” she asked eagerly. This was the first man that I have truly been interested in since Bob's death. He is the cause that for the first time in two years, the bleeding in my heart has slowed. Of course Kagome is happy.

“He comes in on Sundays and Saturdays.”

“Every week?”

“Without fail, more or less. There have been a few times that he didn't come in on a Saturday or a Sunday, but he has always come at least once a week.”

“What else do you know about him? What does get?”

“A blueberry scone and coffee.”

“I like his taste in food,” Kagome giggled. She would like his taste: Kagome was now the Queen of blueberry scones. “And you really like this guy?”

I bit my lip and slowly nodded.

“And you've never talked to him? About anything other then food?”

I shook my head.

“I see…” she pondered. I knew the look on her face. It was a look that said `I have a plan and you can do nothing about it.' I hate that look. Things never ended well for me when she got that look.

“Kikyo…”

“No.”

“You don't even know what I was going to say!”

“I don't care. I won't do it.”

“You don't know what I was going to ask!”

“And I don't want to either.”

“Kikyo…”

“No.”

“You're closing up for the day.”

“I still have a half hour till closing time,” I complained as she marched over to the front door and flipped the open sign to the side that read “closed”.

“Kagome, I'm not closing for another half hour.”

“You can afford the loss of a half hour,” she firmly informed me, dragging me away from my humble business to my apartment. “Right now, we have less then twenty-four hours to snag us a man.”

A/N: Oh no…is she gonna do what I think she's gonna do? Well…then again…I write what I think, and I already wrote it :-P.

That…and I don't want it to drag out. The plot is thickening thought…I can taste it!

I realize now that not everyone got why I thought that part 13 was going to be interesting…so I will clarify something, and then when I have time, I am going to work on making it clearer. Kikyo starts out just daydreaming about WR, just as a way to pass time, but as the week goes on, the dreams intensify to the point that she is obsessing and having hallucinations. I will go back and work on that a bit more…or try and make that a bit clearer. Sorry if you didn't catch that! I hope that the start of this chapter helped some though. I won't lie…I am being slightly influenced by Fight Club and Grey's Anatomy for that aspect.

Thank you so much to all who have R &R-ed! It means a lot!

Now for the AR's!

To: kokoronagomu

Ok…I know I said that I wouldn't give you any more AR's, but you hit the nail on the head for this one! And ironically, I just covered the gay possibility a few chapters back. Thanks for the review, and keep reading!

To: goofy_goober

Aw…thank you! I obviously can't say much…but read closely. Just because the chapters are short doesn't mean that they don't have a purpose. I try to leave hints in everyone of them. Yup! No problem! I really liked that story, so I felt that I should review it, so I did. Well…like Kagome, math isn't my strong suit, so I am gonna work on extra problems a lot tonight, but when I take a break, I will be sure to R&R it. I'm assuming you mean Savwah Fehrr? Well…I will read it later. I need to do math asap. Thanks for the review though, and keep reading!

Toy: angel-up-above-heaven

Haha…yes….yes she did. She turned into a moaning ball of goo in front of her sister, with no one else there. Very alarming and fishy, wouldn't you say? Oh, cool! I used to have a pen pal in Australia, but I was a bad pen pal and never wrote her back. In my defense though, I was in the third grade, and a lot of…stuff…was going on at the time…but this is a different story. Did you guys just start school or something over there??? I won't lie…I have noooo idea of how school systems work outside of here. Thanks! That makes me feel much better, since I know how easy the Whore of the world tone can be when it comes to her. It is something many people get sucked. Thanks for the review, and keep reading!
