"I don't wanna go jace" I grumble, straightening out my uniform. I start work today, and to be honest, im really not looking forward to it.

Im scared that the people won't like me, or treat me weird, but jace says I need to get a job, a small job that can help provide. I guess he's right, but I wish it could wait a little longer.

"You'll be fine" he says, while brushing my hair. "If anyone gives you trouble, or even looks at you rudely, call me. I'll be there within 5 minutes okay?" I nod, calming myself a little bit.

After a lot of persuading, we're finally in the car and driving to the little cafe at the town, it's a cute little bakery, called willows. The walls are pink, and have little plastic sprinkles falling down them. Maybe I will like this place after all.

"hi how can I- oh, you must be leyla?" one of the girls say, which I then find out her name is lana. She has long blonde silky hair, and i think she's a little older than me.

"So your working here now, like, permanently?" She says after I've settled in a bit, and I nod, happy to be making a new friend. Hopefully.

"how'd you like it?" She says

"It's cute, I love the walls by the way" I mumble, unsure if she'd think I'm childish for liking some sprinkles.

"Oh? I did them myself! Thanks girl" she smiles in appreciation and I give her a little nod while smiling, I'm glad she didn't think of it the wrong way. I actually think we'll get along.

"You got a boyfriend?" She suddenly says, while making a coffee for a customer.

"No not yet, I don't really get out the house much" I admit, kinda embarrassed now. I never get out since jace doesn't let me, he's too worried over the outside world. But since we found this little cafe, he thought it would be okay, since not many people come and it's quiet.

"Its okay, boys are kinda lame anyways, some of them can either be really nice, or some can be the biggest idiots you've ever met." And I nod, laughing at her statement and thinking of the difference between my brother and grey. How jace is an angel, and is always at my side, and how grey. Grey is a big bum, who only thinks about himself.

A few hours pass and I've been left to close up. I had to pull down the metal blind thingys, not sure why, and I had to make sure all the ovens and electrics were turned off.

Just as I was shutting off the till, the bell rings, meaning a customer had come in.

"hi sorry we're shu-" I say, being silenced by a hand covering my mouth. Stupid grey. He find himself hilarious.

I bite his hand softly- hoping it'll make him move his hand off and annoy him, but he just clenches his jaw and grabs my chin, making me look at him.

"Did you just bite me?" He groans, oops, guess I did. Atleast I didn't lick him.

I roll my eyes, and with that, he puts me over his shoulder and begins walking out the shop. What the flip is this dude doing?

"Grey I need to lock the shop up!" I say, punching at his back and kicking my legs around. Then I clicked. I'm wearing a dress.

He clearly notices too, since shortly after I feel a hand on my uh- my booty, making sure the bottom of the dress stays down, and covers me completely.

I freeze.

"You can't just- I-" I sigh, giving up, knowing I wouldn't win. I cant believe he just touched my booty without asking. What a bum.

He chucks me into the back of his land rover, and shuts the door, then he gets into the front and starts the car.
