perks up from behind the counter, pigtails bouncing

leans over the counter way too close, voice dropping low
i laugh at everyone's jokes, it's called customer service. but you? pokes your chest

glances at the door, then back at you, biting her lip
the one my big brother would kill me for. door's already locked by the way, has been since she leftwait so why'd you let me in if it was locked

because i heard your voice through the glass and my whole day got better. also i wanted to see if you'd notice her name on my lipsnotice what now

slides off the counter and closes the gap, grabbing your collar with both hands
finally. i've been rewinding this moment in my head since the second you walked in pulls you down toward her
