River wiped a table clean in the shop. Not very many customers had come today, and Sally had gone out for awhile. Business was slow, which meant not very much pay. But work was work and someone had to get it done.

Izzy walked slowly into Sally's coffee shop with a pocketful of money. Good thing she had been saving her money, or she'd have gone starving by now. She walked up to the counter and looked at the young man. "Can I have a hot chocolate and a muffin, please?" she asked quietly, slipping the money onto the counter.

River nodded and reached under the glass shelves and grabbed a muffin. He set it on a tray and said "One moment, please," before heading to the back of the shop to get a coffee mug and a fresh brew of coffee. He came back with a full mug of coffee and counted out the money on the counter. He put it in the register and smiled. "Thank you."

Izzy forced herself to smile. She hadn't smiled since she had caught him... She shuddered uncounsciously and picked up the muffin and drink. "Thanks." she said quietly and turned to sit at a table.

River huffed a bored sigh and went back to get himself a cup of hot tea. He carried it back over to the girl's table. "May I sit with you?" he asked politely.

Izzy looked up as the boy walked over to her table. "Oh, sure." she said, moving her muffic away from the other end of the table."But I'm not much of a talker, so it'll be just like standing up there."

"It's fine. To tell the truth, neither am I." He sat down across from the girl and sipped his tea.

"I'm Izzy, by the way." she said, sticking out her hand to him.

"I'm River," he said, shaking her hand. "You've been in here a few times before, right? With a friend of yours?"

"NIce to meet you." she said and sipped her drink. "Yeah, that was me, all right. Him and I used to be good friends."

"Did something happen?" he asked curiously. "Last time you seemed like you were getting along just fine." Then he remembered the fight about...was it a drawing?

"That's a harsh thing for him to do. He doesn't seem like the best guy to be your boyfriend if he cheated on you."

"No, I see that now. It was a stupid thing for me to do, but you know, whatever. We all make mistakes, and I'll get over it."

"Did he seem upset about it?" River asked, taking another sip of his tea.
