Rhiane walked into the small cafe and headed into the back. She hung up her coat then grabbed her white apron and tied it around her waist over her black pants. Before she walked back into the cafe she straighted her apron. As Rhiane headed up to the front doors to open up she grabbed cups from the table "Lazy waitress's" she whispered to herself as she unlocked the door and attempting to not drop the mugs.
Rhiane fixed the collar of her black polo as she walked towards the sink behind the cash register. When the cups were washed Rhiane flipped the "Closed" sign to "Open" and waited for customers.
As she waited Rhiane started to wipe the tables down, then the leather couches near the fire place, then then coffee table in front of the fire place.Swiftly she pulled her hair back into a high pony-tail then blew the loose pieces out of her face.
The wet cloth in Rhiane's hand dripped as she stared off into space. Finally she came back to earth "Damn" Rhiane muttered as she bent down to wipe up the water. Rhiane stumbled into the back room to look for a "Caution" sign.

Daine jogged down the road, enjoying the morning sun where it wasn't too hot yet, but not the midnight cold. She was starting to slow down, when she stupidly remembered that she hadn't eaten breakfast. Even though no one would notice, Daine blushed at her stupidity and looked around for somewhere to eat. She noticed a small cafe on the side of the road and made a bee line for it, carefully ducking around the people in the street. When she reached it, the first thing she did was look for a sign. It was still pretty early so Daine wouldn't have been surprised if it was open yet. To her relief the sign said Open, so she pushed open the door. Her stomach growled loudly, making her blush harder, as she hovered around the door. Spotting the coffee table by the fire place, Daine laughed and walked over to it. "How cute!" she squeaked, sitting down in the table and ran her hand across the top. Looking around, she noticed she was the only person in the cafe. "Hmm," she sighed halfheartedly not really caring if anyone answered or not, so she lowered her voice to a mutter. "Anyone here?" She glanced around once more, wondering if someone was going to come up to the front of if they were too busy - though Daine couldn't imagine with what - and she should just leave. Finally, she decided against it. She just thought the like cafe was too cute, and wanted to enjoy it before she continued on her jog. [/sup]

Mouse Mouse Opened the door to the cafe hurriedly. Looking at his bleeding hand he yelled Rhiane?! Rhiane you in? Trying to see if he could see her in the back room. Quickly after that he noticed the customer uh....Hello........can I help you? he said awkwardly turning to her and smiling while trying to hid his bleeding hand. Rhiane Rhiane stumbled out of the back room holding a "Caution" sign Where's the fire? Rhiane replied to Mouse then she glanced down to his hand Mouse! What kind have trouble have you gotten you skinny self into now?! she said then dropped the Caution and ran into the back room mumbling to herself while looking for a first aid kit and a clean cloth.

Daine's head snapped up as the door opened and a boy stood at the door. She studied him for a second, and listened to him calling for someone. His hand was red and, at first, Daine thought it was paint or ketchup, but when she looked closer, her stomach twisted uncomfortably. Was that, um, blood? Major ew. "I think it should be more "Can I help you?" she answered, standing up and grabbing some napkins. She crossed the room in a few steps and handed the white cloth to him to wrap up his hand while they waited for the other girl - probably a worker, Daine decided - to get back with some kind of first aid kit. "So, what happened?" she asked curiously, her grey eyes narrowed in sympathy and concern.

Mouse Mouse took the cloth and slowly wrapped it around his hand. He studied the girl then took the napkins to wipe up the mess he had made. When he was done he looked at her I'm Mouse he said while brushing the hair out of his face. He looked at his hand uh....Its a long story, anyways, it ended in someone idiot hitting my with his bike Mouse lifted his pant leg revealing a purple bruise boy can that kid ride, he got away fast
Rhiane
Rhiane Moved stuff around in the back room looking for the first aid kit.as she did she listened to the two in the front, then some bagels on the top shelf fell and hit her in the head. Finally she found it and rushed back into the front A kid on a bike eh? did the bike have any knives attached to the front of it? Rhiane joked then pulled a chair over and sat down. She opened the kit and pulled out some alcohol wipes. Carefully she pulled off the cloth and began dabbing at the cut.
Mouse Mouse winced at the sting of the alcohol wipes then pulled the chair behind him over with his good hand and let Rhiane bandage him up

"Like Mickey? I love little mice. Anyways, I'm Daine," she grinned, helping him clean up his mess. Her stomach curled at the smell of the blood but she wasn't going to let him have to deal with this by himself. She could defiantly suck it up for a few minutes. "Well..." Daine tried not to laugh at his explanation and hid it with a sigh, staring down at his bruised leg and cut up hand and wondered, "did you fall when they tried to run you over or something? That's what it looks like." She nodded to herself, liking the reason she gave, mostly for making herself feel better, because the thought of a kid with knives on their bikes made her skin prickle. Watching the other girl treat the cut, Daine wished she could distract Mouse from the alcohol. "I've got time for your story! I love stories." It was true. She wasn't planning on being anywhere today.

Mouse
Mouse smiled ok, Well I was crossing the street just down the road Mouse turned his head to the left and a guy about 25 was riding his bike, I went to cross at the walk sign and he just kept going, he clipped my leg on his tire and my hand hit the chain when I fell Mouse turned his head back towards Rhiane How does it look? he asked.
[/center] Rhiane
Rhiane listened to his smooth voice tell the story. She wiped up the cut then looked at Mouse It not to bad, but I think you should work the cash today instead of washing the dish's She smiled at him. Rhiane quickly looked up to Diane Oh....I'm so sorry, can i get you something?

Daine stared at him, her mouth twisted with a look of disgust. "That must've hurt like heck," she commented, frowning again, then brightened up "At least it's nothing serious. That would hurt a lot more." Keeping her eyes on Mouse, Daine vaguely heard Rhiane's question, but the growling of her stomach brought her back to the little cafe. "Uh..." she stammered, not sure. "I don't know. What do you have?" Looking around for some kind of menu, Daine realized she hadn't seen anything about food. "Maybe just a water?" she suggested, knowing that would only sharpen her hunger more than sooth it. Oh well.

Rhiane

Mouse stood up as well and tucked his chair back into the table. He looked at his hand then walk back behind the cash and turned it on. Then he looked around Rhiane? did i stop you from putting any food out?
[/b] [/center] Rhiane
Rhiane walked back out of the back room with a menu and a glass of water, she handed them to Diane Here you go she said then replied to mouse Yes you did you little brat then winked at him and disappeared into the back room again to pick up the bagels from earlier and but the rest of the food out.

"Thanks!" Daine smiled at her, taking the glass in one hand and the menu in the other. Taking a sip of the cold drink, Daine's stomach growled again and she blushed a bright pink. Daine took the menu and walked back over to her seat next to the fire place. Looking down the list at everything that was listed, she didn't see anything she really wanted. Noticing Rhiane with some beagles, Daine decided she'd just get that. She ran her hand over the glass, wiping the sweat off of it. "Um... Excuse me?" she looked up at Mouse and the over at Rhiane, not sure who she'd give her order to.

Mouse
Mouse looked up from the cash yep? have you decided? he smiled then moved his black and brown hair out of his face. Mouse ran his hand down his arm all the way down to the desk then tapped his fingers against the it.
Rhiane
Rhiane brought out the rest of the food and put it in the display cases then organized it neatly. She closed the display cases then cleaned the outside of them with a clean cloth. Quickly she stood back up and walked into the back room, tapping Mouse on the head as she walked by.

Daine nodded and opened her mouth to order when she remembered something. Food cost money. Crap. She quickly patted down her shorts, frowning. "Uh, yeah," she said, fishing around in her pockets. Finally, her fingers brushed a few dollar bills and she pulled them out. Three dollars... probably won't be enough... "Um," Daine started again, "a bagel, please?" She searched for a price, feeling stupid that she might not have enough money to pay for the water and bagel. Maybe she could help wash dishes or something, Daine thought. That's what always happened in movies, right? She flashed an grin at Mouse, trying to hide the fact that she was starting to feel embarrassed. [/sub]

Mouse
Mouse ran his good hand through his hair then put his hands on the cash Okie dokie he pressed a few buttons then looked over at Diane That'll be 3.25 he said then pulled a bagel out of the display case and put it on the counter. Mouse yawned then rested his head in his hands on the desk I work to much he said sleepily. Mouse had worked every day this week in order to pay his rent and it was already a week late. He closed his bright blue eyes then yawned again. Then Mouse sat up so he could see Diane.

"Oh," she laughed, this time her face did show her embarrassment, "Think I could work off the twenty-five cents? I only have three dollars." Daine pulled the money out of her pocket and spread it out on the table. Yep. Only three dollars. Glancing back up, she frowned when he yawned, wondering why he worked so much. Couldn't he ask for time off? That's defintally what she would do if she had to work over time. "Are you two the only people who work here?" Daine asked, studying him. Maybe if they were, she could get a job here. Daine knew she needed a job, especially since her mom barely did hers now.
