Stacey sniffed rather loudly as the woman pulled the proffered wipe out of her hand. Withdrawing her own hand rather quickly, Stacey continued to watch the young woman as she continued to tidy up, wiping the coffee off of her jeans... but never quiet getting them clean. The girl then stood up straighter and said something about her morning. Stacey looked back down at her paper when the girl shoved her hand towards her and said brightly, "Katalina Tomaresca".<br/><br/>Stacey started to recoil when the shop's owner, Lucas, stumbled over with his apologies and a fresh cup of coffee for the girl. Lucas was a very familiar face to Stacey, as she was in his shop 5 days a week. She was almost certain that she had heard the baristas whispering to him about how crude she had acted towards them, or how other customers had complained about her. But he had never said anything to her about it, so she wasn't sure if he was just the cowardly type, or just hoping to keep his business afloat by accommodating more 'difficult' regular customers. Either way, Stacey had never thought much of the man and in all her times coming here, had never said a word to him today. That is, until now.<br/><br/>"She needs a shower, and not of the java variety, I'd say."<br/><br/>Stacey slid the paper away from her and picked up her cup once again, bringing it to her ruby red lips. By now the coffee had cooled, but not to the point where it tasted like crud. After taking a sip, she let her eyes roam over Lucas as he was preoccupied and fiddling with his apron. No, he wasn't totally unattractive. Definitely more of a 'working man' type than she normally goes for. With her career and late hours, most of her dates have consisted of fellow colleagues, and 90% of the time it was just about work. So yeah, not really dates.. she had just talked herself into thinking they were dates so she wouldn't feel like such a failure in the romance department. Sighing inwardly, Stacey pulled her eyes away from Lucas' mouth and attempted to pay more attention to the conversation.<br/><br/>"So Lucas, it<em>is</em>Lucas right?"
