BeChloe Week 2022 - Day 6
Prompt: “Ma’am, this is Starbucks.”
Twenty-five-year-old pop singing sensation, Beca Mitchell, stumbled out of the bar with her best friend, Stacie Conrad. It was two a.m., and the pair had just spent the last four hours drinking and dancing the night away. They weren’t totally drunk, but they were just tipsy enough that they were better off not driving.
“I shouldn’t drive,” Beca said. “I’ll call Jason and have him pick us up.”
“Tell him we’ll be at the Starbucks across the street while we wait for him,” Stacie said.
“Are they open?” Beca asked.
“The sign says they are open twenty-four hours,” Stacie said. “We can wait there, and I could have a coffee and a muffin. That should sober me up some.”
Beca called her driver and when she was finished with the call, she looked at Stacie. “I woke him up, so he’ll be here in about thirty to forty-five minutes.”
“Perfect,” Stacie said, making her way to the Starbucks across from the club.
Beca followed and entered the Starbucks behind Stacie. They looked around but didn’t see anyone.
“Are you sure they’re open?” Beca asked.
“Hello?!” Stacie called out. “Is anyone here?”
A blonde woman came from the back and looked at the girls.
“Hello,” the blonde said. “May I help you?”
“We want coffee,” Stacie said, smirking at the blonde. “But, there might be something else I want as well.”
The blonde, whose name tag said, Aubrey, blushed and Stacie winked at her.
“What would you like?” Aubrey croaked out, her face beet red.
