Nov. 15, 2008
Leon went to starbucks after work. His shift was over and he needed some extra energy for the rest of the day. He walks up to the counter slowly where he was met by a worker. "Hello, what can I get you?", the worker asked. Leon couldn't decide, there were so many choices.
He wanted something simple yet tasty. "I'll take a cappuccino. Extra foam." He had made a good choice. He handed the cashier his credit card and paid for the drink. He sat down on a nearby table alone.
Leon took out his phone from his pocket and started dialing Leona's number. "Pick up..." It was her answering machine, apparently she wasn't picking up. "Hey Leona, I'm at Starbucks right now and I was just wondering if you want to drink some coffee with me?" Leon closed his phone and put it back in his pocket. He waited patiently for a response from Leona along with the cappuccino.

Leona had been in the shower when her cell phone had rang, so of course it had went to message bank. As she stood in front of the mirror brushing her hair, that's when she heard her phone bleep at her. She picked it up and flipped it open and saw she had voice mail. She listened to it and immediately her heart skipped a beat. It had been from Leon.
After the brush off with Henry, last week and the way he was with her at school, he was too cool for her. He obviously didn't seem in the slightest bit bothered about her or getting to know her so why should she bother? Now she had met the lovely Leon, and he seemed to really like her, since now he was messaging her and asking her to meet up for a coffee.
She sent him a text message:
Dear Leon, sounds perfect, will see you as soon as possible. Leona xx
Then she went back to getting herself ready, she tonged her hair, so that it sat in wavy curls enveloping her face, and put her usual soft make-up on, and picked out one of her favourite pink satin tops with spaghetti straps and matched it with her newest pair of jeans. Looking in the mirror again she felt she was perfect for the date.
Within twenty minutes she had arrived, opening the door to Starbucks and seeing him sitting at a table, she walked up to him, and wrapped her arms around his neck hugging him from behind and then kissed him on the cheek.
"Hey you" she began, "How've you been?" she asked him as she smiled at him before sitting down.

Leon smiled as he saw his girlfriend walk through the doors. She walked over and gave him a giant hug and a kiss on the cheek. He had already got his cappuccino but hadn't drank it. He saw Leona's face and thought she looked great with make-up."You look great. here have a seat." Quickly, Leon pulled up a seat besides his.
In his head he saw himself and Leona drinking from the same cappuccino with 2 straws. At the moment he only got one straw from the cashier. Up he went and he walked towards the counter, "Another straw please." The cashier smiled and gave Leon a second straw. He went back to the table and put both straws in the cup.
"Here I got us a drink. have some cappuccino with me..." Leon invited his girlfriend to sit down next to him and share a drink. He saw himself cuddling with her a few seconds ahead of time.
"Got my message I see.

Leona blushed when Leon said she looked great, "Thanks" she managed to say, she would have done her usual, don't talk rubbish line, but she didn't want to spoil the moment between them. So she decided for once, she'd just take the compliment and smile and be polite about it. She sat down on the offered seat.
She saw the cappuccino untouched and wondered what he was doing with it, until she heard him ask for a second straw. She blushed again when she realised what he was planning on happening.
"How sweet of you Leon" she said, as she took the straw from him and began to take a sip of the cappuccino.
"Yes, I got your message, I was very happy to get it too" she said with a smile, finding it difficult once again to take her eyes off of his.

Henry was visiting some friends back in his old home with his cousin Amanda. The boy was excited to be on the trip. It had been a long time since he was in California. He really missed the place. Looking around, Henry found and starbucks. Amanda had been following him around like a watch dog and he knew the girl's caffeine would distract her from him. Maybe he might ditch her later.
"Hey look, there's a starbucks over there. Lets get something to drink." he suggested, sprinting over. Once inside, Henry looked around. The place was fairly packed and everyone seemed to be enjoying him or herself. As the brunette walked over to the cashier, a familiar sound caught his attention. Turning, Henry saw someone he did not expect.
"Leona?" he said a little to loud. And what was she doing with another guy?

Peter was walking down the street. He didn't notice the Starbucks until barely passing it. He saw people inside it and became confused. Isn't this the same Starbucks, Sylar and I destroyed? He decided to take a look inside. Peeking through the glass, he couldn't believe what he saw. The place was fully intact. Like him and the crew was not even there weeks ago.
Stepping back he looked at the door, a smile grew upon his face. And evil one at that. He looked again through the glass from where he stood. With a laugh he thrusted his hand towards the door. Suddently the door, being derooted from its hinges, flew into the small coffee and towards the people inside. He was going to shut it down this time.

While sipping his coffee Leon had an uneasy feeling. Something was going to happen, but what. He couldn't see anything at the moment with his foresight, but he had a feeling in his gut that something big would happen. Only time would tell. He'd know seconds before it'd happen.
It didn't take long when something came up. He saw visions of another person entering the building and approaching Leona. About a couple seconds later he entered, just as predicted. As this other boy walked in, he said Leona's name. "Who was this guy?" He thought to himself. "Can we help you?" He asked politely to the person while hiding his anger and confusion.
Immediately, Leon turned to the door and saw it burst open. Someone looking menacingly was at the door. Luckily this was only his ability seeing time in advance. They had a few seconds to hide before this second intruder caused trouble. "Everyone get down!" He reached for Leona's wrist and ducked under the tables.
Surely, the villain came and burst the doors open, the whole place was in panic hiding under the tables.

Leona had been enjoying her date with Leon, it had been going very well, and she was enjoying sharing the cappuccino with him. However a few moments later, she heard a familiar voice shout her name. She immediately froze. What the hell was he doing here in Costa Verde. She was certain he lived in New York, and she had moved here not that long ago with her parents.
Of course Leon naturally asked who he was and what he wanted, Leona wanted the ground to swallow her up. She looked at her feet for a few seconds and then bit down on her bottom lip.
"Hi Henry" she said a little sheepishly and then she looked at Leon, looked deep into his eyes, "He's just a random guy I met a week or so ago, he wasn't interested, and I lost interest" she said, hoping he would believe her, because it was the truth, all they had done was a little bit of flirting, but he'd made no means to contact her, or track her down so she thought it didn't matter.
Next thing she knew Leon had shouted for everybody to get down and had grabbed her wrist to pull her down under the table. Her heart was beating out of control, very fast, and very loud. "What's happening?" she asked him, and then as she looked at what had happened, her eyes grew wide, the door to the coffee shop had just blown in with a loud bang.

Henry stared at Leona for a while. He hadn't expected to see her here. Last time they met, she was in New York. It might have been possible she was visiting relatives like he was. He noticed the other guy and the single drink with two draw. Ooh. So she was on a date. Sure, he did seem uninterested, but that was only because he wasn't a chaser. He wasn't going to make an exception for just any girl.
He stared at her for a minute. "I was visiting my old home with my cousin. I used to live here. Speaking of Amanda, where is she?" he asked, trying to get his mind on something other than the fact that Leona was sitting there with some other guy. When Leona told her boyfriend she had lost interest, Henry felt a slight bang in his heart.
Suddenly, her boyfriend shouted something Henry barely heard in time. The warning was missed and the brunette barely had time to duck as the door came flying in. Henry dropped to the ground and look up just in time to see some guy fly in. "Oh this can't be good."
