Old Friend

That night I needed to work because that new guy was sick again. My dad was thinking about letting him go. He is never there anyways.
“Kim, can you please give me a coffee to go?” It was Mark again. It’s been a while since the last time I saw him.
“Hi Mark, yes sure.” I made him a coffee to go and when I gave it to him, Harry walked in.
“Thank you, Kimmie, keep the change.” Mark said and gave me a wink. When he turned around he saw Harry.
“No one is calling her Kimmie, only me.” He said and Mark runs out of the pub. Harry and I started to laugh.
“Can I help you?” I leaned on the bar.
“No, just wanted to talk to you.”
“I thought that we were going to talk tomorrow.”
“Yes but I couldn’t wait.”
“O ok. You know what? I will give you a coffee and in one hour this pub will close so than we can talk.” He smiled when I gave him a coffee.
“Why don’t you close the pub now? There is no one.”
“I know but my dad will be furious when if I close it.” He nods at me to let me know that he understands it.
His self phone rang after 10 minutes. I could tell it was someone he didn’t want to talk to.
“Kimmie, can I ask you a question?” He puts his phone away than after he switched of his phone off.
“Yes sure.” I was washing some glasses.
“Did you enjoy that night that you spend with me?”
“What night? I spend so many nights with you.” I teased him.
“You know what I mean!” He smiled at his empty mug.
“Yes, I do know what you mean.” I said with a huge smile and grabbed his empty mug.
“Well?” He looked at me with his puppy eyes.
“Yes, I did enjoy it. It was weird but I really enjoyed that night. Why do you want to know?” I had a huge smile on my face thinking about that night.
“O just wanted to know.”
“It was Julie was it?”
”What?” He looked up straight away.
“Your phone?” He turned red.
“Yes it was her. She is so jealous! Sometimes it really drives me crazy.”
“Did you tell her that?”
“What? That she is jealous? No, but every time I try she starts talks about something else or kiss me.”
Laura and Chase came walking in.
“Kim and Harry!” They said at the same time and started to laugh.
“They’re drunk. Big time.” I started to laugh when Harry said that.
“Kim, can you give us something to drink?” Chase said when Laura tries to sit down at the bar but she felt of the bar stool.
“Ok, I will give you two mugs of coffee.”
“Can you give me one to then?” Harry said. I smiled.
“Guys, why don’t you go home and get some sleep?” I said giving them there coffee.
“I can’t drive him home. I walked.”
”My car is away to. It’s getting fixed.”
“Why don’t you give them your room?” Harry suggested.
“And what about me than?”
“You can spend the night over at my place, on the couch of course.” He said with a smile.
It was almost time to close the pub down and I walked over the Chase and Laura.
“Guys, you can’t go home, you are too drunk. Here are the keys of my place. Stay there for the night.”
“What about you then?” Laura started to laugh.
“I will spend the night at Harry place.” I said and Laura and Chase started to laugh.
“To sleep I hope!” Chase said and they laughed. I gave them the keys and closed the pub.
