Nora's Pov

I wiped the sweat that trickled down my forehead while I looked at the bookshelf, packed with a new set of books.

I was free from school today and decided to help Mr. Winsley with the bookstore. I fought with him for a solid 30 minutes but I convinced him that I should work and I have nothing else to do.

Sure, I can do extra studying but I deserved a day off, even though I'm working but this is fun for me.

"Hey old man, come see what I did!", I heard footsteps heading toward me and I stepped back to make room for him to see. "Good job Nora, now go home."

I know he did not.

"I hardly did anything, I'm not going anywhere." I folded my arms and stared sternly into Mr. Winsley's eyes. He shook his head and laughed. Why was he laughing? He's supposed to be scared!

"You're such a funny girl, go home." I groaned and walked away, grabbing my handbag and then going to the desk to get a wet wipe.

I needed it for my face, I was sweating a little.

"Nora!", I spun around and smiled brightly, thinking the stubborn old douche bag changed his mind but frowned instantly when I saw him holding a white envelope.

"Take this," Before he could approach me, I snatched the wipe and ran for it. He's an old man but he can run.

I felt an arm tug me backward, causing me to fall on my ass. I yelped in surprise and rubbed my butt, glaring at the old version of flash.

Damn his younger days and healthy diet.

"You are very wise to run away from me you naughty girl." He slapped my arm playfully and shoved the envelope into my bag. I tried taking it off but he looked at me with a serious expression.

It scared me to death so I allowed him and kissed him on the cheek goodbye.

He always gets his way; I feel sorry for his daughter. He waved at me innocently as I walked out of the small store.

I showed him the friendliest finger I have and he returned it. I smiled and shook my head, running to the other side of the road to get home.

"Dude you gotta listen to Sir Chloe, when I tell you that group is heaven, I mean that shit." I looked over at Layla and immediately burst out laughing at her mouth, messy with potato chips.

This woman eats like a little child. Not even Sam can strive against her and boy, was he messy.

I grabbed a napkin and wiggled on the soft couch, trying to get close to wipe the chips off her lips, chin, and nose.

How the hell did the chips get up there?

"I will Layls, I'm just a little busy right now but I promise I will listen to them." I held up my pinky after wiping her face and we connected pinkies, sealing the deal.

She smiled and dipped her hand in the bag, stuffing her face with more chips.

I laughed at her playful stunt and we sat there snickering our donkeys off, not hearing the door open.

"How dare you steal my best friend!" We looked over at the door and there stood Bexon, huffing, and puffing like he ran a mile to get here.

He is so dramatic.
