the square. It was a typical brick and mortar place, with large glass windows and a raised patio where people sat outside under umbrellas. It was a pretty classy joint as far as I could tell, and the fact that there was a “ Help Wanted ” sign on the window wasn’t lost on me.
    I opened the door, satisfied at the ding that opening the door ensued. I headed over to the front counter, smiling at the person who was ready to take down my order, whose name tag read “Melanie”.
    “Welcome to Buck and Doe’s! How can I serve you today?” Melanie asked, cheerfully.
    I looked up at the breakfast menu that was written in multi-colored chalk above her head, noting that what both Colin and Nickayla wanted were already numbered.
    “I’ll have the number three, the number five, and the number seven, all to go,” I said. I looked up at Melanie with another smile. “Can I also get a warmed cinnamon roll?”
    Melanie nodded, her brown ponytail bouncing as she did so.
    “Is that all for today?” she asked.
    I paused, looking back at the Help Wanted sign.
    The place was small, but busy enough that every few seconds someone else was coming in. I could see myself working there, because it wasn’t some huge chain restaurant, and the people seemed helpful and friendly. Melanie herself smiled more than anyone I’d ever met.
    “Actually, I was wondering who I’d have to speak to regarding the ‘ Help Wanted ’ sign outside?” I asked.
    Melanie ripped my order ticket off of her pad, handing it to someone behind her and punching in numbers on the cash register. I handed her Colin’s debit card, and when she saw his name, she beamed.
    “Hey, you know Colin Westwick?!” she exclaimed, I supposed because she’d been too distracted to answer my question.
    I nodded, wondering silently how she knew Colin. I knew his family was well-known in Big Springs, but I didn’t think that they were that well-known.
    “Yeah, I do,” I said, slowly. “I’m staying at his family’s beach house this summer, actually.”
    She did a double take, then handed me back the debit card, her mouth settling into a slight frown. “Really? So are you the new girlfriend?” she asked.
    Laughing, I shook my head.
    “No,” I said. “That would be my best friend.”
    “Well, I’m Melanie Spencer,” Melanie said. “Colin used to date my younger sister, Madilyn.” She paused, pulling out her cell phone. “Give me your cell phone number, and I’ll pass it on to Pat; she’ll give you a call for an interview date before the end of the day. Your food should take no more than twenty minutes.” She grinned at me. “You know, tell your friend congratulations for me. I’ve known Colin a long time, and he’s an amazing guy—when he’s not being a pain in the ass.”
    I giggled, knowing exactly what she meant, and I’d known him for even less time than she had. I forced myself to control my laughter, punching my cell phone number into her phone and handing it back to her. I crossed my legs, turning around.
    I typed out a quick text to Nic, unsure of how she’d react to me running in to Mads’ sister.
    Me: Melanie SPENCER works at Buck and Doe’s. There might be a Mads sighting on our trip sooner than expected.>.<
    I set my cell phone down, taking the opportunity to look around the restaurant. The chatter between all the different patrons made me feel like I was at a home away from home. I smiled at an old man who sat in the corner, completing a crossword puzzle.
    If I were to get the job, I could definitely see myself working at a place like this every day.
    “Excuse me,” someone said from behind me.
    When I turned around, the sight before me rendered me speechless.
    He was about a whole foot taller than me, standing at likely 6’3”, with dark auburn hair. His amber eyes pierced my blue ones through long, thick lashes, and a wide, intoxicating smile greeted me right before a large, soft, extended hand did.
    “Hi,” he said, holding his
