Saturday Morning

My new client

I awaken at the sound of my phone. The movie is still on and I can see Haylee is asleep too. Lauren is gone. I check my phone.

Hey. There is a bonfire tomorrow at the beach and I was wondering that maybe you could come? Only if you want... Just wanted to let you know

This shy approach from the Dylan I met this morning was unheard of, but adorable. I responded saying I would go just as the movie ends. Haylee and I walk downstairs and Lauren asks,

"Maya, you seen to not be thinking about Chace anymore, what happened?"

I tell them both about Dylan, and being the friends that they are they immediately go stalk his social media pages to see if they approve. After they agree that he's an absolute hottie, and doesn't sound like a complete player due to my story, I tell them about our date tomorrow. They flip and insist on helping me get ready. I'm not really the type to think much about that stuff but I can always count on them. We spend the rest of the night watching all the classics, Mean Girls, White Chicks, and eating microwave popcorn. It doesn't take much to make us happy. Finally I head up to my bedroom. I see a text from Dylan saying he's excited for tomorrow. I reply saying I am too and tell him goodnight.

I wake up early that morning and go for a run around the block. It's a nice day, unlike yesterday, and I'm happy about it. Who wants to go to a nighttime bonfire in the rain? The jog refreshes my and I head back to take a shower. I walk downstairs at about eight in my bathrobe and hair wrapped up and eat breakfast with Haylee and Lauren.

After breakfast I go to work. I work as an attorney. I walk to my office which is a few blocks away from our apartments. I am working on a minor robbery case. I sit down at my desk and my boss walks through the door. I look up and see a plump man.

Mr. McCoy is my boss. He has grey hair and piercing blue eyes. He is around 50 years old but will not tell us his age. In old pictures he used to be handsome but after his wait gain he looks unattractive.

"Ms. Quinn there is a very important client waiting for you in the lobby, I would like you to talk to them." I nod my head and push out of my chair. I walk down the hall to the elevator and press "L". I walk out of the elevator and see Dylan standing there.

"Hey Dylan. What are you doing here?"

"I here for a lawyer. What are you doing here?"

"I'm looking for a client."

"Well that's me."

"Oh. Well please follow me to my office where we can discuss your case." I start to walk towards the elevator and sense that Dylan is following. I step in and press the "12" button. We ride up in silence and walk out. When we get to my office I close the door and sit behind my desk.

"So, what can I help you with Mr. Carter?"

"Maya please call me Dylan and I need help suing a company."
