"I don't see why you don't just come work at Family Video with me and Steve" Robin cried out, slamming herself against the locker next to yours as you grabbed your books.
"Because, Robin, I dont think I have the time for a full time job on top of school and hellfire and Eddie and adjusting," you sighed, "I don't know its just a lot"
"Yeah butttt moneyyyy" she taunted.
"Don't remind me," you said slamming your locker. Your dad had been working more and more at the testing facility, meaning you saw him less and less. Its not that he forgot you were there...but he definitely had forgotten to leave you money on more than one occasion. And, since you never saw him, its not like you could really explain to him that $40 every two weeks was not enough to get you groceries or enough food to sustain yourself.
"Look, y/n, I know that its tough with your dad and everything, but come on the perks are endless. I mean we get to hang out after school, and you get paid! Plus there's like no actual work involved!" Robin was practically yelling as you walked down the hall to your history class.
"So if I say yes does that mean I'm hired?"
"I mean technically Steve is the one who has to actually hire you, but he's got the hots for you so there's no doubt in my mind that he will-"
"Wait Robin," you paused in the hall, your brain spinning at what she just said, "Steve has what for me?"
"Uhhhh nothing! Nothing at all!" She fumbled over her words, "I don't think I even mentioned Steve, actually, I don't know how he's involved in this conversation at all."
"You said Steve has a crush on me?" You laughed out, a slight blush rising to your cheeks.
"Okay Y/n look, I totally fucked up right there. Steve told me he thought you were pretty after you came to work with us after school a couple weeks ago, and ever since then he hasn't stopped talking about you," Robin talked so fast you could hardly keep up, "so I asked him the other day if he had a thing for you and well, he didn't exactly say no"
"Ugh Robin!" You groaned, throwing your head back, "now its gonna be so awkward whenever I'm at work with you guys!"
"So you'll take the job?" She exclaimed.
"Because I know you won't stop spiraling until I say so, yes I'll take the job, but I'm gonna need these Steve details so I know what I'm getting myself into"
"Yes! Oh my gosh yes! We're totally gonna be coworkers!" Robin jumped up and down, grasping your arm tightly.
What the hell have I gotten myself into?

"Come on, come on, hurry up losers," Steve said impatiently as he beckoned you and Robin into his car after school.
"Hey Stevie," Robin smiled sweetly at him from the passenger seat.
"Robin," he looked at her quizzically, "someone's in a good mood today. The hell did you say to her y/l/n?" he asked, turning around to face you.
"I may or may not have accepted a certain job offer..." you bit your lip as your eyes found Steve's.
His mouth hung open in shock as his eyes slid from yours to Robin's, who was eagerly bouncing up and down in the passenger seat.
"You- wait what?" Steve squealed, turning to face you in the backseat, a blush flushing across his cheeks.
"Robin said you guys had a job offering and that I should take it sooooo"
"Well yeah we did," he turned to Robin, his hair bouncing over his forehead as he nodded, "but I didn't think you'd be the one to take it"
"Oh I'm sorry if I've disappointed you, Stevie," you drawled out the last word.
