Narrators POV;
-------- May 18th, 1991. (Monday)
10:01AMVALERIE'S ALARM RANG IN HER EAR. She was close to throwing it before it turned off.
"Waky waky," Chris smiled.
"What the fuck," she said as she opened her eyes, groaning.
"How the fuck are you up right now," she grumbled as she rubbed her eyes.
"Wanted to walk you to your very first day on the job."
She sat up, staring at Chris with a plain look.
She didn't say a word as she got up from her bed. She just went to her desk and brushed out her hair, with a look of dread.
"I don't want a job anymore."
Chris laughed at her, laying on her bed, "it'll be okay."
She grumbled as she walked to her closest, grabbing a black shirt and blue jeans and turning to Chris.
"Etheir turn around or get out."
He obeyed and put his head down into a pillow, seeing only darkness.
She changed quickly, throwing her clothes over her hamper as she laid back on the bed.
"I don't wanna go."
Chris peeked up, then fully looked looked up as he realized she was right next to him.
Over the last few days, or ever since the day they went job shopping, they've hung out.
Eddie was getting suspicious, and Valerie would come home overly happy, or Chris would just seem over the moon.
Which they were, Valerie felt comfortable with Chris in such a short amount of time, he knew what happened back home and everything.
Only Chris and Eddie know it.
They grew closer and closer constantly.
"You have to," Chris poked at her side, "get ready, you have 5 minutes till you have to leave."
She groaned, rolling out of bed, "I'm not putting on make-up then."
Chris shrugged, "You look good either way."
She nodded. She was too tired to actually react to his compliment.
She ruffled with her hair, and Chris just admired her.
He thought she was gorgeous. He couldn't help but just stare at her every moment he got.
She sprayed perfume on quickly, then grabbed her shoes.
"I'm so dreading this," she stated as she slipped her shoes on.
"I know," Chris smiled.
"Ready to go, I guess," she sighed as she grabbed her keys.
Chris got up from the bed, "it'll be fine."
"Better be."
....
12:33PMValerie looked up from the counter as she heard the bell ring from the door.
She saw long, dark curly hair appear, and she knew it was Chris.
"Figured I'd bring you lunch," he smiled, "are you on lunch?"
She looked at the clock, then looked at the board with her schedule.
"Hold on."
She turned in the chair she had, yelling for David.
He appeared from the back, raising his brow, "you gonna go on lunch?"
"Yea, that alright?" She asked, hoping off the stool.
