The Hopeful Journey

New Beginings (Comment and tell me what you think!)

I woke up with a fresh start. I finally had a job interview. I jump out of bed , take a shower, and brush my teeth. Finding my favorite black dress and heals I throw them on and tie my long black hair in a pony tail. Grabbing a banana as a ran out the door. I get a cab, and We pull outside of Warren Publishing Company.

It didn't hit me until I walked in the door and saw a tall brown headed man walking toward the elevator. There he was Chad Warren. Just as gorgeous as the day I fell into his arms. I stood there in shock for a few seconds before I saw the elevator open and he climbed inside. I ran towards the elevator and jumped inside.

"Hello again Mr. Warren" I say as I step in. " He looks up from his phone and shakes my hand. "I don't believe we have met. Ms?" " Julie Turner, and I'm the women you rudely pushed out of the way the other night at the bar." I say in a stern voice as the elevator comes to a halt on the 12th floor. "Now have nice day sir." I smirk and walk out of the elevator as his mouth drops open.

"I got the job!" I scream in delight as I jump in the elevator and call Tommy." That's great!! But are you sure you want to work for a guy like Chad? I've heard he can be kinda intimidating." He says just as the elevator comes to a stop. When the door open I'm faced with the familiar eyes of Chad Warren. "Tommy, I have to go I'll see you at the apartment." I hang up the phone and walk passed Chad not saying a word. "Julie!" I hear him say my name as he catches up to me right before I walk out the door. "That's no way to treat your new boss." He says with a smirk on his face. "Look I'm sorry with how I treated you at the bar. I was having a rough day." " Doesn't give you a reason to be a jerk to me." I say and roll my eyes. " Let me make it up to you. Come to dinner with me tomorrow night."

Is he joking? Why would I want to go to dinner with him? Yes, he does have a gorgeous face but he was such a jerk the other day. Should I give him a chance? One part of my screams yes but the other part says he's your boss turn and run as fast as you can."Just think about it. If you don't wanna go then call. If you don't call then I'll be waiting here at six." And with that he turns and walks away.

All I've been thinking about since I got back to Tommy's apartment from the interview was Chad. What I'm I going to do? Do I really want to go down this road? I guess I could give him a chance but what if it ends badly? I can't afford to lose this job. I have to talk to Tommy .

"Are you crazy Julie? You can't go out with him he's your boss!!" Tommy says after I tell him about Chad. "He just wants to make it up to me for being a jerk." Why I'm I taking up for him? "Whatever, do what you want." He says and storms off. What has gotten into him?

After thinking about the pros and cons of going out with Chad. I've decided to give him a chance. I mean what's the worst that can happen? Just going to date my boss. This is going to change my life I know it. What have I gotten myself into?

After tossing and turning all night. I finally give up on sleep at about 4 o'clock on Tuesday morning. I don't start my new job until next week so I decide to go for a run to try and clear my head. I can't seem to get Chad off my mind. Tonight I have to meet him at Warren publishing. This should be a interesting night.

After my run I take a shower and try to talk to Tommy but he's totally ignoring me. What did I do? Does going out with Chad really bother him this much? I go into my closet to try and find something descent to wear tonight. I pick a red knee length flowing gown. One of the nicest dresses I have. One of the things my mother suddenly decided to buy. Probably just felt guilty for leaving me for a week by myself. I shut my thoughts off and put a minimum amount of makeup on and find my black heels and head out the door and wave for a cab. What in the world I'm I doing?

My hands a sweaty I'm a nervous wreck. I'm going out with a billionaire! Why is he interested in me? Maybe he just feels sorry for me. I hope not I'm already falling for the guy. I mean he's gorgeous! My thoughts are taken away as the we arrive in front of his building. Breath Julie breath.
