I woke up and took a look at the tablet screen to see the call between Jaime and I already ended, I sighed and grabbed my phone to see a text from him already sent to my phone.

Jaime: Good morning beautiful (Red heart emoji)

I sent a reply back then began to get ready for my first day at work.

I pulled on some blue jean shorts a black Rebel8 tank top and tied some black and white converse to my feet then went to put on some makeup and tame my wild bed hair.

After a good thirty minutes of fixing my face I walked downstairs and to the kitchen where my dad sat at the counter reading the paper and drinking a glass of orange juice.

"Good morning dad." I say placing a kiss on his cheek before going to make myself some coffee.

"Morning honey, you're up early."

"Yeah, I have my first day at work today and I don't wanna be late." I say pouring the coffee in my pink Victoria Secret to-go cup.

"Exciting, well I hope you have a wonderful day. I'm going to try and get your brother up so we can go site seeing." He responds taking a sip of his orange juice.

"Thank you dad, and good luck, he's a grouch in the mornings." I laugh, giving my dad another kiss on the cheek then heading out to my car.

I place my bag in the passenger seat and start the car getting it to roar to life, then making my way to the café that's about fifteen minutes away.

I decide to call Jaime on my way there but am sent straight to voicemail. I think nothing of it but that he's probably on the other line with someone and just settle on listening to music the rest of the drive.

When I make it to the café it seems to still be closed but seeing as there are two other cars parked outside I get out of mine and walk to the door tapping lightly on it to get someone's attention.

Far in the distance I see a girl look my way then walk over to the door, she was heavily tattooed with short brown hair that had purple peek-a-boo highlights underneath.

"Sorry we open at ten." She says through the glass.

"I know, I'm here for my first day." I reply.

"Oh! Okay." She begins to fumble with the locks then opens the door widely for me to go in.

"Sorry, I thought you were a customer." She chuckles, locking the door after I enter.

"Follow me back over here and I'll introduce you to everyone. I'm Sarah by the way." She says pushing her hand forward to which I shake gently.

"Arianna." I smile back.

We walk to the back break room and I see two other people, a guy and girl, sitting at a table talking while eating what I'm assuming was their breakfast.

"Hey guys, this is Arianna, she'll be working with us now." Sarah says taking a seat at the table.

"Hey, I'm Alex." A girl with long black hair says.

"And I'm David." The guy chimes in with a small wave.

"Take a seat, we don't open for another thirty minutes, we were just talking about tattoos and how this noob doesn't have any." Alex says pointing to David.

Now that I got a look at everyone sitting around the table, I see that he is in fact the only tattoo-less person here. Following what I mentioned earlier, Sarah has tattoos all over her body, even on the back of her hands, she also has a medusa piercing as well as septum, but for her look, it works on her.
