It was usually pretty busy around the station, so sometimes I forgot how dead it could get. But when I got a shift during school and work hours, I remembered pretty quick.
There was nothing going on. No cars needed gas or an oil change, no customers needed me to ring them up, no Two-Bit to keep an eye on before he walked out with half the store... no nothing. I stared at the car magazine I'd already paged through about twenty times before placing it down on the counter with a sigh. I got up to stretch my legs more than anything, and grabbed a Pepsi from the cooler. I grabbed a bag of M&Ms too before returning to my chair and propping my feet up next to the magazine.
I opened the candy and tossed one up in the air, trying to catch it in my mouth and missing as the bell above the door chimed, announcing someone's arrival and distracting me.
