Chapter 2

Kurt shook his head. Damn, he needed some caffeine after that. He headed on in to the café and ordered a double espresso, taking it to a table by the window and slinging his gym bag on the floor. He closed his eyes as he took the first swallow, waiting for the caffeine to work its soothing magic. Raoul always used to say that was bullshit, coffee was an upper, not a downer—but then he'd always drunk decaffeinated, so what did he know?

Kurt took another sip. Remembering the note, he unfolded it. Just the name of the place, and the time, in carefully legible handwriting. Damn, what must it be like to be so young and optimistic? Kurt sure as hell couldn't remember. He was about to crumple the note when he noticed Shingo sitting on his own by the door. Kurt smiled to himself, and stood up, draining the last of his coffee in one swallow.
