Slave For A Hundred Days (ON HOLD)

Day #3: Breakfast

Jess's POV

I giggled as the unicorn I was ridding on leaped from cloud to cloud. I was in Candyland!

The clouds were made of marshmallows. There were trees made of chocolate and their fruits were gumdrops. All around me, I saw gummy bears and gingerbread men and women. They lived in little cute houses made of candy canes and many other types of candy.

The unicorn landed in a field of cotton candy. I hopped down and pick up a big stick of pink cotton candy. I bit into it and-------

"What the hell?"

I groaned. Whoever woke me up from that dream was going to suffer.

I slowly opened my eyes. I stared into a pair of beautiful green eyes peering down at me.

Wait... Anne doesn't have green eyes...

I let out a scream, making the person jerk back and cover their ears. I cover my body with the sheet.

Oh. It was Ethan. I let out a sigh. But how'd he get in here?

"What are you doing here?! And who let you in?!" I ask.

Ethan rolled his eyes. "I'm here to ask you to join me for breakfast. And I found a spare key under the mat. Real original. By the way, you were chewing on your pillow."

I blushed and retorted, "There's this thing called a phone and you can text and call people on it instead of going to meet that person. And how do you know where I live?"

I glanced at the clock, which read 7:00am. What?!

I glared at him. It was Saturday for God's sake! Who wakes up that early?! Well, Anne does, but that's not the point!

"I got my sources." He said, looking proud.

I sighed. "Anne told you, didn't she?"

"Maybe."

I am going to kill Anne. That traitor!

"Hurry up and get ready. I don't have all day." And with that he left my room.

I groaned. Oh, how I hate this deal. I get out of bed and grabbed some clothes out of my closet and set it on the bed.

I walk out, finding Ethan sitting on the couch and watching t.v.

"I'm going to go shower. Wait a bit."

"Sure."

I went to the bathroom and shower. I wrap a towel around my body and brush my teeth. After that, I blow dry my hair and brush it.

I was about to leave the bathroom but remembered that Ethan was out there. Damn it! Force of habit. Oh well.

I open the door a bit and saw him still watching t.v. I sighed. Please don't turn around... I sneaked out and was almost to the door when I heard clapping. Shit.

"You have a pretty good voice, I must say." Ethan smirks, and his eyes roam my body. "And a good body too."

I blush and try to cover my legs up.

"Perv!"

I quickly run to my door and rush in. I think my cheeks are about to explode.

I quickly put on my clothes and grab my wallet and phone. Then I open the door.

"That was fast. My girlfriend takes forever." Ethan says.

"I'm not like those girls. Wait, you never told me who she is."

"She has been my girlfriend for 3 months now. Her name is Samantha." He says dreamily.

"Let's go, Mr. Whipped." I grabbed his hand, pulling him out the door and down the stairs to his car.

We talk the whole ride to our destination. Ethan parks his car in front of a small café. He opens the café door, and I step forward to go inside, only to be hit by the door. He snickers at me and I glare at him, rubbing my head.

"You're so mean." I pout as he steps into the waiting line.

"What do you want?" He says, glancing at the menu on the wall.

"Umm.... I'll have a hot chocolate. What are you getting?" I said, looking at the cheaper side of the menu.

"I'm getting some pancakes, a hot chocolate, and a corn muffin. Is that really all you're getting?" He looks at me, puzzled.

"I can't really afford much for breakfast." I admit.

"Well, order some more. I can pay for it. Think of it as a way to make up for the fact that I made the door slam on your head. So hurry up and order. Then find us a table."

I sighed. "Fine. I'll have a hot chocolate, a plate of bacon and eggs, and a blueberry muffin. Thanks." Ethan smiles at me and shoos me away.

I found us a table and sat down. Ethan soon came over with our food, trying to not drop anything. I giggled and grabbed the bag of muffins from his mouth, setting it on the table.

"Thanks." Ethan said.

Throughout the whole meal, we talked about random stuff. We end up finishing breakfast at 9 o'clock. When we finished, we headed out to Ethan's car.

"So, what are you doing today?" He asks.

"I'm going to do homework and then chill with Anne. How about you?"

"I'm going to do homework and in the evening, I have a date with Samantha."

"Oh cool."

The rest of the ride was just music filling in the silence. Once Ethan parked in front of my apartment, I hopped out of his car.

"Thanks for the ride! See you tomorrow!" I said, waving. Ethan waves back and drives off.

I enter the apartment, going to my room. I finished homework at 10 o'clock because I'm a pretty fast worker. Now I had nothing to do. Great. Anne has a job at a bakery, and her shifts are on Saturday and Sunday, 7 o'clock to 1 o'clock. I had a few jobs. I do babysitting and jobs with random shifts. I could really use more company. I sighed and decided to check my email for job offers. I had babysitting on Wednesday, 4pm-7pm, and pizza delivering on Friday, 7pm-9pm.

I decided to go into the living room and watch t.v. After an hour of watching a movie, I fell asleep. The next thing I know, I wake up to some very horrible singing. I cover my ears and groaned. It was Anne. She was pretty talented, except she can't sing to save her life.

"Anne, you're killing me!"

She grins at me and pulls me up.

"C'mon Jess, we haven't had girl time in forever! Let's go to the mall!" Anne says, pulling me out the door, down the stairs, and into her car.

We went to the mall and went to the food court. She bought ourselves some pizza and soda. Then we went to the shops, buying clothes, make up, and loads more. Soon, we made our way home. I was exhausted, but seeing Anne happy was worth it. She's like a sister to me. Her family took me in through hard times, and they loved me like their own. We watched Gossip Girls together and went to sleep next to each other.

3 days down, 97 days to go.
