"Ooohhh the weather outside is frightful," Nick sang, his lusty baritone filling the small bathroom as he stood at the urinal. The man three down from him was trying to finish up as quickly as possible, but there was something about Nick and especially his singing that made people smile. "But the fiiiire is soooo delightful, and since there's no place to goooo~" He went to the sink and whistled the refrain to his reflection. Busy busy day! There was a charity thing later he'd skip along to for a while, let Maria watch the shop while he pressed the flesh. Right now, he was jonesing for a fluffy irish mocha, and he knew where to get it. They'd be alright without him for half an hour.
Starbucks was his favourite coffee place by far, and even with the weather getting chillier, he liked to sit outside and watch people go by. There were halloween decorations about, but even then Christmas managed to creep in at the edges already, even with Thanksgiving still to come too. He hadn't seen the patrons of either holiday in a long while. Maybe he should look them up sometime, when he had time.
Nick settled himself outside and slipped a hip flask of whiskey out of his pocket, to slip a slug of it into his coffee. Not too bad to heat up your insides. His phone was buzzing- Rudolph calling again- but he decided to ignore it for the time being. Maria would take care of it.
"Let it snow, let it snow, let it snooooow!" he sang out of pure joy, hoping the clouds would hear him, and startling a person walking past him so badly they almost fell into the street.
