Time Warp (Alastor x OC)

Ch 64

Say hello to my new profile picture! This is probably what it will be permanently from now on, it's me, ya boi. I decided to wear my hair down for this one, lmao.

No my eyes aren't pink, they're blue, but that's so boring🙄

Anyway, enjoy my closeup, love you guys, ok bye. 😘

Fawn's POV

"Like this?"

"Yea, you got it!"

I poured the coffee grounds into the filter carefully, not wanting to spill any.

Now that everything has calmed down at the station and no one is dying from cyanide poisoning, I'm finally learning my new position as the secretary of the office.

Which is very similar to what Niffty does...Niffty is more of Alastor's personal assistant, but she and I basically do the exact same thing.

She just does it for Al, and I do it for the rest of the office.

After I'd finished pouring the grounds, Niffty started slowly pouring in the boiling water. This process is very slow, and time consuming, but damn it makes a good cup of coffee.

She poured it all in, and then turned to me with a big smile, "alright! Now we let that brew, and in about 15 minutes it should be ready to go!"

I nodded, and then felt Niffty's hand slip into mine, "come on! Now we get to go clean the bathrooms!"

She said this excitedly, phrasing it as if it were a blessing instead of the grossest chore we could be bestowed with.

I grimaced, "alright, Niff...but if I vomit, you can't be mad at me," I grumbled.

She giggled, "don't be silly! Trust me, it's not that bad!"

Just as she was about to drag me away, the break room door opened up and Thomas walked in with a smile on his face.

"Ah! There's my favorite girls...I see you two are hard at work," he said, strolling over to us.

"Hi Tommy, yea, I'm just showing Fawn The Who's and what's of the office chores," Niffty said, and I glanced down at her.

I'm sorry...

Tommy?

I wanted to laugh, but I bit my tongue and smiled at Tom, "yup, she's showing me the ropes!"

He chuckled, "wonderful! Unfortunately, though, training will need to be put on hold for a minute. Fawn, can I have a quick word with you?"

I perked up slightly, looking up into his eyes a bit confused.

"Like...alone?" I questioned.

He nodded.

Then he looked towards Niffty.

"Niffty, honey could you go wait in my office please? I'll need to have a word with you, as well," he said and I felt Niffty's hand slip away from mine.

"Yes, sir!" She chirped.

And just like that, it was Thomas and I alone in the break room.

He sighed, and I was still a bit confused about all of this.

"Is everything alright? Am I already getting complaints?" I joked lightly with a small smile.

When he laughed at that, a bit of my nerves dissipated. He shook his head, "no, nothing like that. It's nothing bad, sweetheart, I just wanted to see how you were doing," he said with a soft smile.
