Haunted

Part.3

I woke up in Josh's arms the next day. Warm and comfortable. I glanced up to see he was still asleep, I turned my head to see the clock. It read 8:47am. I knew I should probably get up and get ready for work but I didn't have the heart to disturb Josh when he's sleeping. After about 10 minutes I decided I would try my luck at sneaking away. Gently lifting his arm and untangling my legs from his, I quickly and quietly stepped off the bed. Success I thought to myself while heading to the bathroom.

I showered quickly dressing in a simple white button down and black skirt that fell to my mid thighs, Pairing it with some black tights and some cute black 2 inch heels. putting my hair in bun before adding some light makeup. I walked out of the bathroom getting ready to leave, before heading back to the bedroom to say goodbye to Josh. I walked in seeing the bed empty. Had he left? As I was about to turn around I felt Josh's arms hook around my shoulders and pull me to his chest. I felt him kiss the crown of my head before speaking.

"leaving already babe?" His voice still had that morning rasp that made his accent stand out. I've never seen or heard anyone so attractive. I turned my head to look him in the eyes meeting his intense gaze I stood on my tiptoes to press a soft kiss to his lips, wrapping my arms around his neck. Josh groaned into the kiss putting his hands on my butt. I giggled and pulled away.

"Yeah I have to be at work by 10." I sighed into his chest. Josh nodded his head.

"Do you need a ride?" He questioned. I shook my head softly

"I'll just take my car. When do you leave for recording?" I asked.

"Whenever Peter decides to wake up" he said rolling his eyes. I smiled and pressed another kiss to his lips before grabbing my purse from on top of the table and heading to work.

I arrived at the daily press cafe at around 9:50am. I Clocked in and grabbed one of the aprons they make their employees wear. Tying it around my waist and greeting my co-workers. And by "co-workers" I mean Vicky. Vicky was my best friend, she had jet black hair that was cropped at her shoulders. She was pale and had bright green eyes and a slender figure, she stood a few inches taller then me at 5'7.

"Finally your here!" She whined walking over to me and hugging me.

"I've been here since 6:30 and truly don't think today could get any worse." She said rubbing her temples with her fingers.

"Why what happened?" I questioned.

"Oh you know, Adam's just been up my ass about everything." She sighed rolling her eyes. Adam, our manager, was somewhat nutritious for being a jerk. Constantly telling off employees and being rather touchy with some of the female staff.

"Well I'm here now, so if he tries to bother you again he'll have to go through me" I said flexing my arms. Vicky laughed before some costumers walked up to the counter. I walked over helping them and officially starting my shift.

The clock rolled around to 6pm, my feet were killing me and I'd just about had it with peoples attitudes today. Vicky left at half past 2 and I've been running around like a chicken with its head cut off since. The cafe was starting to slow down a bit and I was mainly bartending now rather then running around. Finishing serving a few more guests I began getting ready to trade off my shift and head home. Clocking out and walking to my car. Sighing in relief because my shift was finally over and I didn't see Adam once.

I drove back to Josh's apartment and walked in setting my purse on the table and kicking my heels off before wondering over to the bed. I flipped my body down after noting that Josh must still be at work. I breathed into the pillow letting my body melt into the mattress. I must have drifted off because when I opened my eyes it was because I felt a pair of large hands running up and down my back, messaging me gently. I groaned into the pillow at the feeling.
