peggy sue's diner

@pαrĸ вoɢυм *sitting at the circular round table, serenity sat on her knees to be taller than the table when it comes to staring over at the kid’s menu seeing how creative the meals look like such as creating a face on the pancake or even shapes* What does baby Serenity want to drink? * Her pigtail brushed against her shoulder now that her hair grew out, She looked over at the waiter who had his note pad ready to write our drinks. “Banana milk please~” She flashed her signature smile at the waiter as I couldn’t but coo due to her natural cuteness* Cup of coffee for me. * shows a gentle smile before nodding when given time to pick out our order, “Mama, can I get the Chocolate chip pancake special?” The moment I gazed over at her she had her puppy dog eyes. Brings my hand over to pet the top of her head making sure to lean over and kiss the top of her head* alright princess. I will order your favorite for you. Do you want anything else? Want a plate of fruits? * She shook her head and just kept pointing at the stacked chocolate chip pancakes, “This only~” Her voice remained angelic as I stare down to skim through the menu wondering what to order for breakfast. Having a big appetite I decided to pick a meat lover omelet that comes with a hashbrown and a few original style pancakes*
*once the waiter comes back with the drinks decides to let the waiter know that we are ready to order. Since Serenity started to doodle on the kid’s menu that had a drawing portion at the back, I decided to say her order* My little girl would like to order today’s special, Chocolate chip pancakes… and for me, I would like to go for the meat lover omelet that comes with both hashbrown and pancakes. * smiles sheepishly making sure to point at the picture from the menu before closing it and handing it over to the waiter* Thank you so much. * looks over at what serenity was drawing seeing that it was a blank picture frame for her to use her imagination to draw* what are you drawing sweetie? * She used the few crayons given to her as she concentrated on her drawing, “ I’m drawings animals.. In school, we are learning the names of animals.” Watches her attempting to draw a cow * That’s a pretty cow. Is that a flower next to it? *decides to talk with her as we wait for our food*

@lee тαeмιɴ *the alarm rang on the night stand, waking me up. As I turned to my side to switch the alarm off, the picture of a pretty little toddler smiling while showing off her two front teeth matching with a dazzling smile from the male holding her greeted me. That earned a sleepy smile from.*
Good morning my beautiful angels.
*caressing that picture first* Let's start another bright day ahead of us.
*talking to myself and get up, getting ready to start the morning routine.
As the clock on the wall showed 9 am, I flipped the sign 'Open' on the restaurant door. Minho, the part-timer greeted me in full salute, "Good morning bos." In a joking manner as I finished wrote today's special on the black board in the front store.
'Chocolate chips pancake' was written on it, a wide smile spreads on my face over the thought of my daughter's favorite food.

"Welcome dear customer, table for two is right this way." Minho greeted the first customers of the day. Bringing you and serene to a table. He waited until the two of you were seated before handing you two the menu and getting ready with a memo and a pen, readied to take your order. The familiar voices that I heard from the kitcheb earned my attention, making me peek at the glass on the door that connecting btwn the diner and kitchen. I see.. smile spreads seeing the two of you had found the way right to this place. It didn't fraze me a bit since I did purposely moved to somewhere closer to the two of you, hoping that we'll bumped into one another, and today just seemed to be the perfect day for it.

I waited while pressing my back to the door, tried to calm the nervous beating of my heart, playing each one of different scenario that possible to happen while waiting for Minho to bring me the order for the two of you.

@pαrĸ вoɢυм *rest my phone against my lap after checking the time and other notification early that morning in fall. Looks at the phone screen of serenity and I smiling at the camera before it turns black letting myself see my very own reflection. Its been like two years already since I decided to bring serenity to the province and live a quiet life. At times serenity would visit her grandparents back at the city and occasionally she would ask about her daddy causing myself to always give her the same answer petting her head gently that her daddy is busy unable to pay a visit and that he misses his baby girl very much. Lets out a small sigh and gets up from my bed making sure to fix it before getting ready to change deciding to spoil serenity. With her attending kindergarten, I never really got to spend lots of quality time with my baby girl. Everytime I pick her up she always run to me all jolly showing what she created in art class* its not wrong to have her skip school just for one day.. * smiles softly after changing, calls her teacher and gives an explanation that serenity wont be attending class today before hanging up and going straight to my daughters bedroom.*
*enters the bedroom seeing my baby girl snuggling against her elsa and anna dolls having myself chuckle. Takes seat at the edge of her bed gently patting her side* serenity time to get up sweetie * leans down kissing the side of her head as she moved a bit slowly waking up with her brown orbs staring over. She rubbed her eyes sitting up and hug onto my frame as I kiss the top of your head, “its too early to go to school mommy.” She mumbled against my shirt as I shook my head* I know baby... actually mommy is bringing you out to have breakfast. I called your teacher that you wont be going to school. * automatically serenity eyes grew wide as if she complete woke up and grins happily, “im going to spend time with mommy?”* yes baby here lets go get you changed and then we can go. Make sure to brush your teeth! * watches serenity jumping out of bed quickly going to the bathroom as I laugh and pick out the clothes for her*

-skipping over to the restaurant-
*holds the hand of serenity as we walk along the side walk searching for a restaurant only to see one when turning the corner* serenity wanna go over there? It looks like they have your favorite food. Chocolate chip pancake *she grinned tugging over to the direction, “lets go mommy~” she giggled and skips along the pathway as I follow along making sure to open the door for her to go inside before smiling over at the waiter when being welcomed* good morning~ table for two please. * follows the waiter as he smiles at the two of us making sure to bring a menu and a kid’s menu that has a few crayons for serenity to doodle on the picture at the back*

*rest my cheek against my palm thinking about the next day unsettled a bit and just having small hopes things will be better, leans and sips my milkshake*

*sits at one of the booth ordering myself a milkshake and rest my head against the table, brings my finger to touch the straw and slowly swirls the milkshake before shutting my eyes*

*sits at the one of the booth having a western breakfast, stabs my fork on my pancake when slicing myself a quarter shoving it in my mouth*

*shift my gaze over at cole as a throbbing feeling was left against my chest watch you just leave letting my head face down dejected pressing my lips against the straw when being given the milkshake*

*slowly opens the door entering the diner sees cole from a distance, press my lips together worried about what is going on as I slowly settle down at one of the leather seat away from your booth ordering myself a milkshake lowering my head*

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт The hug was really unexpected. Thank god taekwoon had nothing in his mouth or else he would be wheezing the hell out of it. He was too frozen to even response to the other's quick good bye and thankfully brougjt back to life quick enough by his manager

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ There wasn't even a hint of hesitation on his features when he leaned forward and hugged the other male. "Thank you," he murmured softly, then pulling back. "Well then, I'll be off." He added before waving Taekwoon good bye, and left.

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт The obvious mirth painted on the british face makes the korean feels a little flattered. Like wow this guy is super happy to get nobody's number it shoulf be Taekwoon who's dancing off right and left in celebration but anywho. "Youll see me around," he promised after saving the number of the other, a small smile also playing on his face

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ "I'm asking for your number, silly," he said and let out a chuckle, taking the other's phone and typing in his number. He dismisses the call when his own phone rings, then registering Taekwoon's number in his contacts list with a wide smile on his face.

"So.. I'll see you around?" Nicholas said once he returned the phone back to the singer.

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт The pink haired was back again at shoving eggs into his mouth and was about to choke when be heard the familiar english accent fleeting through his eardrums. He patiently wait for Nicholas to finish his sentence, cause really he knows how hard it is to talk, and was rather... surprised at the outcome.

"Ah sure... i... uhm... here," he carefully hands his phone over to the other, after of course unlocking it and opening the number pad for the other. "Just call your phone and i'll save your number," he murmured softly. "Or i can give you my manager number if that what youre after-"

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ The actor sighs in relief when he spots the singer still on his seat, presumably waiting for his manager to pick him up or something. It makes him glad, nonetheless, and after taking a couple of breaths to ease himself down, he takes a few strides towards the other and opts to just stand next to him. He's sure that Taekwoon will notice him anyway.

"Hey, Taek, I was just wondering-" He starts, pausing a little as he carefully chose his words to say to the singer. "It was rude of me to just leave like that, and, uh- I don't know if we'll ever meet again, so-" Shyly rubbing his nape, he smiles (for the nth time.) "Do you mind if I get your number so I can contact you again? If that's okay with you, of course-"

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт Taekwoon almost too bashfully ask for a second serving of eggs from the waitress. Theyre good hes on a diet and his manager isnt around so why not just take the opportunity and eat as much as he want while his manager is on the way right? And more coffee, more coffee would be help to get hom through the day especially after meeting basically one of his biggest actor-crush (he has a lot to be fair, but he doesnt get tp meet everyone in real life)

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ Nicholas simply flashes him a smile in return before hopping off his seat, turning his back on the other and made his way out. Somehow, there's this heavy feeling on his chest that he didn't understand; he just made a new friend in this unfamiliar place, so shouldn't he be happy?

It only dawned on him why when he was already several steps away from the diner. Quickly, he jogs back to that place and glanced to the bar, hoping that the pink haired male hadn't left yet.

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт "of course," he murmured. Really though, the other can just easily looks up his name and his group if he ever wanted to hear Taekwoon sing. Its that easy.
He simply hums at the other good bye and lazily waves his hand, wondering if they ever gonna meet again

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ "One day," the actor repeated as if sealing the other's promise with him and smiled. "I believe you'll keep that promise of yours."

The ringing of his phone in his pocket interrupts him yet again, and after a quick check of the message, he turns back to look at Taekwoon, his expression apologetic. "I'll have to go, unfortunately."

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт The pinkette simply hums in approval, wondering if he doesnt look anything like a singer judging from the other's reaction. He prolly doesnt but when does he ever care much about appearance? hence the fact that he's shoving eggs into his mouth and chewing it slowly, cheeks full.

That doesnt surprise him, theyre popular but not 'that' popular and Nicholas doesnt seem to be someone who's free enough to just listen to every single group that exist in the world. "one day," he promised after swallowing the eggs, not knowing whether if he will actually follow up to it

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ "A singer?" The actor asked in a somewhat incredulous tone, finding it quite hard to believe that the male before him is a singer. But that explains all the looks he'd been getting; the guy must've been in a popular group to get easily recognized by the public.

"I'm afraid I didn't know your group, but to meet another artist in this place is really cool," he confessed with a genuine smile on his face. "Maybe I will get to hear you sing, one day," he added wistfully, and let out a soft hum.

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт The pink haired male simply shrugs once again and opt to play with his phone yet again. His fans would love some interaction with him and to be fair he missed yhem, sides it seems that Nicholas would want to focus on his food instead.

His attention shift when the waitress gave him his order and he politely smile at her. He starts to slowly sips on his coffee (hopefully his manager doesnt find out) and after he digs into his scrambled egg. The silent was peaceful once more before he heard the other's thick english accent coming through again.

"Im a singer, in a group, name is vixx" vuxx

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ "It may be not uncommon, but it's not everyday that I actually get to see someone who suits that colour," he answered and nodded. He made no more reply to the other's last statement, opting to just let the conversation drift off and focused on finishing his food.

"So.. What do you do for a living, Taekwoon?" Nicholas asked once he's done eating.

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт He furrowed his eyebrow and simply shrugs. He did say hr wanted to eat but eh, passing time works too. He manage to find ease in ignoring tje blue eyed for a few moment thinking that at this moment theyre done talking. He looks up for the other's name and several movies he had watched before before it dawned him. Ah Nicholas Hoult, explains a lot.

"Its not... uncommon these days," he tries to explain, feeling rather self conscious about it now. He tried to talk the stylisr noona out of it but thwy convinced him that it wont be so bad and what not but well... tough luck now.

"Im not nervous"

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ "Just passing time then, eh?" He muttered audibly for both of them to hear, before taking a forkful of potato salad into his mouth. He hums once more in approval at the taste, chewing his food carefully and spoke up again.

"You're aware that you're catching the attention of some people here with your hair's colour, right?" He said, then side-eyeing the audience around them. It was true, though a few were also glancing at himself; they probably recognize him too. "You looked a little uncomfortable earlier, that's why I approached you to-" He shrugged. "Maybe ease your nerves?"

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт the pinkette simply nod almost all way too awkwardly. He's not very good with idle conversation, especially around stranger, a very handsome one at that. He didnt offer his hand for a handshake but it seems that Nicholas doesnt mind much, he seems very warm and it brings a some form of joy to the singer's heart that he did not dare to voice out.

"i suppose," he murmured softly, eyes darting to the incoming lady with a sign of excitement only to slightly purse his lips when he notice that she wasnt bringing his food yet. He idly taps on his phone, trying his hardest not to give Nicholas the attention that he definitely call for. "nothing, just... hungry"

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ He might've taken notice of the other's slightly coloured face, but he makes no comment as he took it upon himself to gently but firmly shake the male's hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you then, Taekwoon." He answers still with that smile on his face, which only grew wider by the way Taekwoon's name rolled off his lips. It sounded very foreign, though he liked it.

"It's such a beautiful day today, isn't it?" He says about a minute later once he pulled back, his speech getting interrupted when his order was finally brought, then thanking the lady and turns his attention back to Taekwoon. "So what brings you here, aside from having the need to eat?"

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт "Im pretty sure you heard that a lot," he murmured under his breath, looking away with face slightly colored in pink not unlike his hair. "Taekwoon, jung taekwoon," he introduced himself softly, hand still lingerimg on his phone. And really, Taekwoon might have seen this guy somewhere if not everywhere, he just cant remember where exactly

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ Now that's a response he didn't expect. With a small laugh, he relaxes his shoulders and turns fully to the side, giving the stranger a smile.

"That's something I don't hear often, so the compliment is very much appreciated," he replied and extended out his hand. "I'm Nicholas, by the way. But you can call me Nick."

@ɴιcнolαѕ нoυlт The pink haired somewhat managed to get immersed with his phone, enough to not notice that the guy beside him was leaving. He just ordered his food and beverage of choice not long ago so he didnt expect anyone to interact with him anytime soon. If its his manager they could just call him after all.

He was just about to open his notepad (after a moment of playing with some games in his phone) when he heard a new voice beside him, greeting what it seems to be him. He turns his head a little, not too much as he doesnt want to feel self righteous (what if the other man wasnt talking to him) and paused at the sight in front of him.

He might have seen the most beautiful man in the world and he is know talking to him (he might have dropped something for all it matters). "You have the prettiest eyes ever," he subconsciously murmured out, not realizing the words were said out loud at all

@jυɴɢ тαeĸwooɴ Drumming his fingers against the wooden table, Nicholas lets out a soft hum, contemplating whether to ease the stranger of his growing uneasiness or not. It just bothers him, in a way; besides, he could actually use a good company right now, to maybe make a new friend in this new place.

A delighted look soon appears on his face when the guy seated next to the pink haired male stands up and leaves and immediately, Nicholas gets up from his own seat and occupies the now empty bar stool before anyone else does.

"Hello," the male greets the other beside him, head tipped a little to the side.
