Meet Again-

The wind wiped past the tall buildings, turning the corners sharply. Trash rolled past the crowded sidewalks between the fast moving feet. Chris walked fast, pulling his coat closer to his body, his ears slightly turning red from the frigged cold of winter. His long, thin fingers were stuffed inside his pocket, his left hand clenching his iPhone. Bumping shoulders, he past slow tourist in for the Christmas rush. His bodyguard was only steps away from him, watching his every move and others around him.

Entering a coffee shop he stood online, pressing his cold fingers together trying to make some heat. He heard the squeal of girls behind him. He shook his head turning around to the girls.

"Hi." He smiled.

"Oh my God, your Chris Colfer." The one in the middle squealed.

"Yes, its very nice to meet you." He giggled slightly.

"Same, we love your character, you're amazing." The one of the left sighed.

"Hardly." Chris smiled.

"Nice to meet you, can we just get you to sign our notebooks, we need to get to get to school." They held out their schoolbooks. He smiled taking the girls pen, putting his John Handcock on each of the covers. They said their thank yous and ran out the door.

"Can I help you?" the cashier smiled sweetly.

"Yes, can I just get a hot black tea, grande?" He smiled. She nodded taking a Christmas Starbucks cup and turned to the order. Chris pushed his wallet out of his rear pocket. He flipped threw it looking for the smallest amount of change he had. He ran his thumb across the hundreds and fifties, stopping at a single twenty. He pulled it out placing out onto the counter.

"Hello, I am Darren Criss, I am a craving musician and hopefully you will like my work today." He said into the mic. Chris looked up seeing a curly man in the far corner. He strummed the gold wooden guitar in his hand. He adjusted his thick-rimmed glasses scanning over the small crowd enjoying their evening coffees.

"Sir, your tea and change?" the cashier handed to Chris.

"Oh, thank you." He smiled walking over to the bald beefy man. "I'm gonna sit and watch the show. Is that okay?" He whispered.

"No problem, just remember you have a early day tomorrow." Chris nodded talking a seat in the back. He placed his tea on the counter, crossing his feet, leaning back. The smooth voice surrounds the group of people, causing them to smile. His riffs were perfect as he went high to low within a split second. Chris was very surprised at the voice. He smiled, tapping his foot to the beat. Darren closed his eyes, his fingers trailing across the pad of the guitar, holding down the important strings. His feet rested on the highest rest on the stool, the guitar close to his chest.

After of an hour, Darren said goodbye. He had gotten a round of applause and a standing ovation. Darren blushed thanking everyone. The coffee shop emptied out slowly. Chris stood walking over to the packing singer, tapping his shoulder. Darren turned around smiling.

"Hey, I just wanted to personally that you were amazing." Chris held out his hand. Darren smiled, taking his hand.

"Thank you, I know you from somewhere. I swear I do." Darren looked at him confused.

"Do you watch Glee?" Chris asked. Darren smiled.

"Yes, you, you play Kurt right? Oh my God! It's a pleasure to meet you. I cant even-" Darren rambled.

"Its nice to meet you too." Chris laughed.

"I love that show, I love you character, I just- Oh God." Darren sighed. Chris smiled.

"Thank you. I just thought you did amazing tonight." Darren blushed.

"Coming from you, that's the most amazing complement ever!" Darren smiled. Chris giggled.

"Thank you."

"So is there a reason your in the City?" Darren looked at his shoes?

"Yea, I have an interview and some meeting with a producer for the movie to wrote the screenplay for." Chris nodded looking at Darren's bouncy curls.

"That's really cool!"

"Yea, are you from around here?" Chris asked. Darren shook his head.

"San Francisco." Darren smiled.

"Really, I'm from Clovis, working in L.A." Chris smiled.

"Yea, I know where the studio is." Darren laughed. Chris nodded. "So how long you out here for?" Darren swayed, clasped his hands behind his back.

"I leave Sunday, I have to back to shoot for Monday."

"Me too, I have to go back to my Starkid crew." Darren smiled. Chris looked confused.

"Oh, we are a group of crazy people who sing and make up skits. We are on youtube if you ever want to look us up." Darren rambled. " I just walked to know because I wanted to ask if you wanted to get a drink and dinner?" Darren sighed. "But I bet you busy so, just for-" Chris grabbed Darren's hand tugging on it.

"I would love too. Do you mind if my driver picks you up? Chris asked. Darren smiled squeezing the younger boys hand.

"No problem. Um I am staying at the Hilton right near Time Square." Chris nodded.

"Okay." Chris nodded. "See you tomorrow?

"Tomorrow." Darren said breathless watching him leave the shop.
