"Alright.. guess you're hired!" A huge grin formed on her face as he finished writing down her details. Glitch smiled as well at her reaction and handed her the paper with her resume.

"Now, just sign this paper. It'll confirm that you want to become part of our staff. We also want to hire you because the pay is quite generous considering the circumstances. Now, sign here and here," he continued handing her several different papers.
Y/N took all of them and signed without hesitation. "Great! Well, thank you so much for accepting us, Y/N!" Said Glitch happily.

"You can start tomorrow. Seek will take you and your partner to your room." He nodded once before leaving the office. She looked down at the pile of papers in her hands before getting up to go with Seek. "Sign your soul away.. didn't see that when I first read it!" She muttered under her breath and put it in her bag along with a pen.

"Okay mystery man.. let's go!" She smiled at Seek who responded by bowing slightly.

The pair left the building and went over to her room. She opened the door and looked around the room. It was fairly bare with just two beds with some closets and cupboards against the far wall. Junjie was standing inside already. "Presume you got the job?" He smirked at her.

She huffed at his smug expression. "Yeah! Yeah, I did!"

She threw herself onto her bed making the springs creak. The bed shifted from the sudden weight but still remained stable. "Well good job!" He smiled at her.

"Thanks, Junjie." She grinned at him as she rolled off the bed. "I think I wanna get changed into something more comfortable now... my suitcase is all packed and ready in my closet." She said looking around the room for her things. She grabbed a shirt she had been wearing before and walked towards her wardrobe. 'I know I have pants here somewhere...' She thought looking around. Eventually she found the jeans she had worn earlier in the day and headed towards her bathroom, and got changed.

"Seems like I'm starting tomorrow." She sighed contently as she exited the bathroom.

The two sat and talked for hours about whatever came to mind. When they finally fell asleep, they both felt happier than they probably should have been.

-Jack's POV-

"One more sip.. one more sip.." Jack murmured to himself. He'd drank his third cup of coffee in the hour he'd been awake and working. "Just gotta keep it together."

Eyes grabbed the cup from him and threw it on the floor shattering the remains into small pieces. The other employees gave him a sympathetic look while Eyes glared at them. They were all used to it though, the two had an ongoing feud.

"If I had known you were gonna be a little shit today then I wouldn't-"

Jack was cut off by Eyes bumping his shoulder, (yk the thing where they walk into your shoulder?) and then walking away, leaving Jack to pick up the shards of ceramic and glass. That fucking multi eyed freak.

Jack just wanted to end his shift, but Eyes made him stay extra to clean up the mess.

He eventually dragged his feet all the way to his room, unlocked his door and flopped face first onto his bed. 'One more minute and I can sleep.. hopefully..' Before he could even think further, he was fast asleep. He stayed like that for a few moments until someone started pounding at his door.

"Go away.." He mumbled half asleep.
The pounding grew louder. "Jack come on.. we don't really want to break your door do we?" Another voice chimed in. Jack slowly stood and walked towards the door. He opened it. It was Shadow and Glitch. His only true friends along Figure and his best friend, Hide.

"What do you guys want.." He yawned trying to hide the fact that he was extremely annoyed. "Hey Jack, how was your morning.. are you ok? You seem a little out of it.." Glitch spoke carefully, taking note of the dark bags that lingered beneath Jack's eyes.

"Fine! Now why are you two bothering me? You've been bothering me every time we speak since work started and it's driving me insane!" Jack snapped. They stared at each other.

Finally Shadow broke eye contact, not knowing what else to say. "See you tomorrow I guess.." With that, the two left.

Jack shut and locked his door, collapsing against it and sliding to the floor. "Why is there always a new problem?"

Jack quickly fell asleep against the door not having a spare moment to spare for any thoughts or dreams.

He woke up to a text message from Hide.

"Hurry up! There is this amazing looking girl who just clocked in! YOU'RE MISSING IT!"
Jack groaned at the text.

He had only woken up, so he was in no mood to socialize right now. 'It couldn't hurt to go down there and check it out...' He thought as he got ready and made his way over.
