    Summary

    “This is our livelihood, Chris," Eddie says. "The Harringtons don’t give a shit about us peasants. We have to stay on top of our game if we want The Book Cellar to survive longterm.”

    “We’re going to be okay,” Chrissy repeats firmly.

    Except Eddie knows that small business bookstores have dropped like flies because they can’t compete with Harrington Books and other big-name store prices. Eddie’s about to whine some more when he feels his phone vibrating. His stomach does a little bit of a flip, but he tries to play it cool as he stands up nonchalantly and places Chrissy’s phone in front of her before digging his own out of his pocket.

    She figures it out anyway. Eddie needs to practice his nonchalant face more.

    “Is it Scoops?” Chrissy asks and grins into her cup when Eddie shoots her a scathing look.

    “You’re incorrigible.”

    “So it is Scoops!”

    Eddie rolls his eyes and unlocks his phone. The message is indeed from scoopsahair, his internet friend.

    Or, the You've Got Mail AU no one asked for.
