Benjamin was currently wiping the counter which was currently occupied by the cashier. Speaking of which, he hoped that Casey would clock himself up for work. Although, it would be unlikely considering that he may have valid reasons behind his absence. Plus, Crevan may have other things to do on his own, so the water mage was now having his hands full.
It was then that he spotted a girl, a short-haired brunette who looked definitely petite for her age. Immediately, he approached her, picking up the book that she was struggling to reach and then handing it over to her. "Here you go."

Kristen is so close to getting that book from the top shelf. She could feel the hard cover on her finger tip. Maybe if she tip toed a little bit more she start puling it out with her fingernails to the point that it falls out of the shelf and she catches it. That opportunity didn't come when someone else taller than her helped her get the book off the shelf and hand it to her. It was at this point that she felt completely embarrassed despite the fact that she appreciates the boy's help. As she took the book from him, her face was completely covered in a shade of crimson. She should thank him but a part of her also wants to tell her that she could've done it herself. The latter would totally sound disrespectful so she decided to simply thank him for his help.
"O-Oh...u-um...t-thank ya. Ah must have looked silly tryin to take that book down myself."

As soon as the blond was done assisting the girl, he spotted the crimson blush on her cheeks. He could tell that she was completely embarrassed by that trivial infraction. He had to assure her.
"Ah, well, it's part of my duty to assist people. After all, I'm one of the people working in this place. Well, right now, I'm the only one working here."

The only person who is working in this store at this very moment? Kristen isn't sure if that is a good idea to have only one person working an entire store. It may be a bookstore that doesn't get a lot customers but to only rely on one person at the time being seems like a bad idea. Oh well. Now that she has her book, what should she do next? She has no reason to buy the book right away and it seems like this guy is bored. Maybe she can talk with him for a bit to pass the time.
"Well, glad ta see dat you're doin yer job. So...how ya doin today?"

~✰`★ ~ ☄Casey rode on his skateboard along the sidewalk. He sipped his coffee and held his box of cheesecake under his arm. He turned the corner and stopped in front of the door. He gently pushed himself and his board in front of the counter, he set the box down and set the coffee next to it. He yawned and kicked up his board, piccking it up and walking behind the counter. He set the board under him and sat down in the chair in front of the cash register opening up the brown box and picking up the plastic fork inside. He poked into his cheese cake and took a bit humming around his fork. God he loved sweets. He set the fork down and took a sip of his coffee spinning around in the chair and looking at Ben then to the customer. He had to take a double take once he saw her clothes. He thought of country music and shuddered. He set the coffee down next to the opened box of cheese cake slice and pried his eyes off the customer, trying not to be rude and stare, and look back at Ben. "Hey, you need any help, I kinda forgot to set an alarm sorry about that." He said, trying to hide his excuse under the promise of help and work. He still found it a little weird he worked with a kid. He should try to find a new job, something more fitting for his age maybe?☄ ~ ★`✰

In response to the girl's question, he smiled. "Well, it's fine and dandy. Actually up in my alley since I take much pleasure in reading books. One way for me to pass the time."
It was then that he heard Casey's voice. He stared at the cashier with a perplexed expression, surprised by his sudden arrival, though he felt slightly relieved. "Well, better late than never, Casey. A little more help will be appreciated." After all, more customers would be coming after a while.

Kristen is glad to hear that her helper's day is fine and dandy. She isn't a total lover of books but for someone who takes much pleasure in reading them, this must be his dream job for him, or at least the closest he will get to his actual dream job. Maybe he aspires to be writer if he takes so much pleasure in reading books and would like to write one of his own but that is an assumption that she shouldn't make. Another employee showed up at the shop, a man by the name of Casey. Not wanting to be rude she looked over at Casey with a smile and waved at him before going back to talk to her helper,
"Ya really like books a lot don-cha? Ya ever thought of writing yer own book?"

~✰`★ ~ ☄He watched as Ben took care of the customer and then stare at him, his expression surprised and possibly confused. This wasn't the first time Casey got a look like this but it has been a while. A slight panicked feeling started to bubble up in his gut and he could hear Pedri's voice bouncing around in his head. "It looks like he knows, doesn't it. You have a secret, child, he sees through you." Casey shuddered. No, there's no way he could know but... Maybe, what if something gave it away. Maybe a lump on his chest just a little too big or..."Well, better late than never, Casey. A little more help will be appreciated."
Casey sighed a little and visibly untensed. Then he felt a little embarrassed for the panic. There's no way Benjamin knew he was trans, there's no way anyone knew. "Yeah, uhh." He rubbed the back of his neck and closed his cake box. "Sure thing man." He stood up and as he did the customer waved at him, he waved back and went down a few ilse to clean up a little while there were almost no customers around. "Well, it seems I was wrong." Pedri said and Case could hear the smirk in his voice. He frowned and focused on his work.☄ ~ ★`✰

Once again, the girl was questioning towards him. He had to keep the explanation short. "You may say that books are like my best friend. Hence, I find that the library in Soleil City is an interesting spot. As for writing a book, I'm not sure, since I have to grasp for inspiration." However, since she was a human, he just didn't want to entrust her yet with his access to his private library back in his house. Weird things were discussed there and some may just creep the country girl out. Although, the Nanoa fruit would be an interesting thing to incorporate into his potential novel.
Although, he would notice the cashier feeling a little tense. Actually, he couldn't decipher the exact reason why Casey would feel like that. He pushed the worry aside as soon as the other male spoke up. He simply nodded as he watched the male depart to the counter before asking the female. "Care to start a little introduction about yourself? Your accent sounds interesting, so I assume that you may be from another country, perhaps?"

Books are like Kristen's helper best friend. She can't say that he isn't the first one to say something like that to her since she had friends who were totally into reading and it was rare to see their faces pried away from a good book. Its those type of friends who help her out when it comes to picking a good book to read but since she doesn't have friends like that here on the island, she is stuck to just going by an interesting cover. Wait, now that she thought about it, why couldn't she just ask this guy if this book she is getting is any good. Its a fictional vampire story but she has read Twilight before and felt her brain cells get killed off one by one. She wouldn't want to repeat that same mistake again so after she introduces herself to the helper, she will ask him his opinion on the book she picked out.
"Ya want to know little ol me? Awright. Ah'm Kristen and Ah'm from da part of da U.S. of A where da BBQ is top notch, cowboys wrangling and farmer girls sweatin. What about yerself? Also, whatcha think of this book Ah picked out? Its called "Marked" and its suppose ta be a vampire story of some kind."

~✰`★ ~ ☄Case cleaned up some stuff in the back To be completely honest with you he wasn't trying to hard. He dusted everything off and reorganised by genre and author. He took a break and ate the rest of his cake drank a little of coffee and cleaned up most of the room and played FeeDog on his phone to fill up time. After awhile he decided to start heading out. He left the back room and and picked up his skateboard walking out the front door after giving ben and the customer a wave. He left the shop and hopped onto his board and rode down the sidewalk.[EXIT]☄ ~ ★`✰

He then noticed Casey leaving the store once his task was done. He just decided to let him be, in case he had his own business to attend to. Disturbing him would not be the best option. He faced the country gal before he replied.
"I see. America does have nice things. My name's Benjamin Harris, born from London, England. The English people have afternoon tea, scones and fish and chips as a few of the unique food things there. There's also the castle for the royal government, the Big Ben and the London Eye observation wheel." At her question about his opinion about the book, he hummed. "The culture about the House of Night is what fascinates me when I have to describe about the book. Magic spells are the things that I'm most interested with, actually."

Benjamin Harris, an English man who probably enjoys tea, scones, and fish and chips. Those treats among many others a typical English person would enjoy but does Benjamin enjoy it? That would be the harmful assumption Kristen can make about him. It would be the same thing if he assumed that she loves BBQ, baked beans, riding horses and drinking moonshine, although three out of the four listed are true. Him mentioning a castle made her think for a moment as a princess in a pretty dress with a tiara but she isn't sure if that sort of princess exist within England and the Big Ben is something she would love to see from beyond photographs someday and take a picture of it herself. His description of the House of Night made the book sound promising given the premise of vampires and magic so she will definitely give it a read. It has to be better than that other vampire book she regrettably read in high school.
"Only tea Ah ever drank has been mama's sweet tea and ta be honest, Ah'm kinda scared to try any other tea, like green and black tea. Fish and chips sounds really good though, although Ah'm not sure it can beat my love fer fried chicken. Oh, and thanks fer yer opinion on this book. It may just restore my hopes fer good vampire literature."

By the time Kristen described the tea she was usually enjoying, he couldn't help but see if it would taste good as well, being a tea enthusiast and all. "Ah, care to tell me the description about the tea? This may be the first time I have heard of that, to be honest." When she compared the fish and chips with the fried chicken, he chuckled gently. "Can't help it if you have that kind of opinion, though it's best that you taste the fish and chips some other time."
When the gal spoke in gratitude for his commentary, he smiled. "Glad to know that you have the enthusiasm. Now, are there any more books that you may need? I'm about to have my lunch break a few minutes from now."

☯ Sweetheart I'm here for you. To see your pretty face.. I'd defy all the stars. To capture your embrace... ☯
The male known as 'Angel' scanned the instructions on the back of the bottle, quickly complying with the written words and downing the whole contents of the bottle. He swallowed every last drop of the bittersweet liquid, closing his eyes as he waited for the potion to take effect. He was leaning against the side of a building, waiting for something to happen. Anything. His mind was filled with images of his beloved Crevan. This was for him. All for him. He needed Crevan to love him back, and would do everything in his power to make it happen. He had even resisted the urge of appearing in Crevan's dreams the previous night, knowing that he may not be welcome there. The tanned male gasped suddenly, doubling over as a weird, burning sensation encompassed his entire being. The process was slow, but he could feel himself changing. He grew breasts and his hair lengthened. His body changed to become extremely feminine and voluptuous in appearance. His nails grew longer and shinier, his skin becoming sensually soft to touch. His feet were now smaller, fitting for his new physique. His eyes became a little larger, his lips becoming fuller. His hair grew long enough for him to have a fringe which successfully obscured his violet eye. Angel straightened up sometime later, his transformation into a woman now complete. He quickly dug into his messenger bag, pulling out a strange new outfit which he had impulsively ordered for his change into a woman. He dropped the bottle into his bag and started changing after moving to hide behind a large bin. He was comfortable with his body, so he didn't mind changing in public. It did come as a surprise, however, when he found that his body was hairless, as if he had just come back from getting waxed. When he was done changing, Angel shoved his old clothes into his bag and stepped out onto the footpath. Unfortunately the potion didn't get rid of any of his scars, but he was able to hide them well enough. The newly turned female sighed softly as she made her way into the book store. Angel knew that Crevan worked there, so he figured that it'd be easy enough to wait for him there. All he had to do was buy a book or two and read. It wouldn't take too long since he was pretty sure Crevan would appear at some stage. It didn't occur to Angel that his new outfit choice was slightly inappropriate and very revealing. All he knew was that it had looked comfortable when he bought it and felt comfortable as he wore it.
