  I awaken to the sound of the damn alarm going off. Checking the time seeing it read "5am" I groan. That's right I need to drop my parents off for their vacation. Even if I told them not to go I don't have evidence to back me up. Plus they're pretty stubborn so, oh well I guess.

I do my routine, noticing my mom has already cooked us breakfast. Few bacon strips and eggs, she's in the bathroom showering however. My dad steps out of their room with their luggage. "Hey help me out with this for a moment ey bud?" He says and I nod grabbing the other suitcase. Placing it into my moms trunk, eating my breakfast, scrolling for a bit then finally driving them to the airport.

They exit the car, my mom hugging me saying to stay safe and they head off to the plane. I sigh and drive back home. Now I'm alone with these possible outcomes from people that can throw skyscrapers. I'm sure it'll be fine. Probably.

I reach home noticing the time now reads "6:15am" lucky we're close to the airport so that gives me some time to relax before work. I shower and chill in bed for a while. I wonder what I should wear for tonight? I stand back up and open my closet, noticing the lack of color inside of it. I sigh, then an idea pops up.

What if I just borrow from my dad? They'll be gone about a week, so I can definitely wash it and he'd never know. I nod at myself for the great idea, heading into their room and opening the closet. I see a few of his dress shirts, too fancy, I see a simple white plaid button up. Yeah that'll do.

I snag it, heading back into my room I also pull out a pair of simple blue jeans. Not too classy, but not too under dressed. The Crochet is a pretty high end place, but I'm sure this'll be fine. Checking the time again I need to head to work. I sigh, changing into my outfit and start bracing myself for whatever today may bring.

Not even halfway through my first week and I learn a huge secret about a hero, become a possible target for another, then land a date with another.

What the fuck is this luck? Am I a protagonist in some story? Whoever is deciding my fate, be kind to me you dick. I chuckle, yeah right. That's crazy to think of.

I arrive at my work, being able to park the car this time and head inside. I nod at Kay and she nods back going back to her duties. Heading into mine and Jake's office I run into no one. Opening the door with my key, seeing it empty once more. I shrug and check the desk, noticing a list of floors needing attention.

They all must be out on some important mission or figure I'll be fine by now. I grab the usual things, a mop a broom, the bucket, etc. I head to the first floor being #5 and place my headphones on blasting my playlist. Time to actually work for a pace I guess huh?

Hours pass by with nothing happening. Just groovy cleaning. No one needing my attention, or telling me some crazy news. Is this what it's normally like? I could get used to this. Quietly date Sarah and work without issues. I smile at the thought, I could save up for my car and college then go with her there too if it works out. I'd get all the attention though being with her.

I check the time, noticing it reads "11:58am" it's time for my lunch break now. I grab my equipment putting my position on pause, I head to the janitor elevator and head back to the main floor. I reach the office opening it and putting my gear away. Checking the fridge I notice it's empty, did Jake swing by or is he doing graveyards now? Either way, I need something to eat.

Oh right I've got a car this week, I can drive wherever. Hell yeah. I close the fridge and start to head to the door, opening it I almost run into Mary. and there goes my hopes of an easy day. She's got her fist up ready to knock but stops seeing me. "Oh! Hello there! Good timing, I need a *tiny* favor from you if possible." She greets me with her sweet voice.

I sigh, "I'm actually headed to my lunch at the moment. I'll be back in 45 minutes to help you out alright?" I say trying to walk past her but she blocks me. "Wait! It's just a 5 minute job! I'll buy you lunch! Please!" She's desperate. I stop and weigh my choices, one I can be a dick and leave her here with whatever issue is happening and eat peacefully. Or two I accept it, possibly getting her isolated attention turning me into the next Kayne.

Yeah.

I push past her, hearing her gasp. Sorry woman but I actually wanna live past 30. However she grabs my left bicep, I sigh turning back to her. "Please!" She begs me. I roll my eyes, fine. Five minutes. "Alright alright, I'll help." I say and she lets me go smiling. "Thank god!" She replies. "It's in my office, I spilled something major and they don't have cleaning utensils up there for dumb reasons!" She heads to the elevator with me trailing behind her.

An actual spill to clean up, and not an excuse to drag me into privacy. That's a first, outside of Sarah's issue on the first day. I walk back to my office quickly grabbing a mop, then head back. I watch Mary as she moves to the elevator, noticing her very sleek Russian build. Especially from behind, damn. I however bring my eyes back up and away from her, can't do that stuff dude. Especially with what'll happen tonight.
respect women. they people too.

We enter the elevator, with nothing else happening. I'd rather it not be quiet, "So what did you even spill?" I ask snagging her attention. "Just my coffee from this morning, I slipped and the top went YEET." She says. Did she just fucking say 'yeet?' Huh, Russian girl knows her memes apparently.

Despite them being years outdated. I chuckle at that, I wonder if any of these guys have seen the weird edits of themselves online? The Stardust ones are down atrociously however. Not that I would know or anything. Cough. The doors open and we exit heading to her office. She opens the door entering it and I follow behind her. Seeing that there is indeed a spill on the ground.

I bring my mop and bucket over, quickly dealing with the issue so I can actually eat. She's fidgeting a bit, but I don't bring it up. Wringing the rest of the coffee out into the bucket I nod at her. "All good." She looks over at me and smiles. "Thank you! I know this could've been avoided had they gave us paper towels and stuff up here. But nope." Mary replies smiling sweetly closing her eyes and tilting her head again.

This woman is a heart killer holy shit. Still I'd rather avoid a confrontation so, time to leave. I drag my bucket behind me heading back to the door. "Wait, didn't I offer you lunch?" She stops me. you did. but fuck off. I shrug my shoulders, "Maybe. But I don't wanna waste your time anymore Miss." my reply causes her to frown majorly.

"Awww, come on! How often would you get a free lunch offered??" She pouts making fake tears in her eyes. Might've worked on Kayne but not me miss. I am Mr. FuckDemHoes don't you know? I shake my head, "My lunch is limited as is. So I gotta rush." I reply speed walking out of the door. Until she runs to it and body blocks it.

Damn you're persistent aren't you? You'd think to back off a janitor after what happened a few months ago, but I guess not. She then surprises me, by moving out of the way. "Sorry, bad habits. I guess another time huh?" She says then walks back to her desk looking ashamed. That's, new. Maybe she feels guilt and doesn't want it to happen again.

Whatever it is, I'm glad to be alive. I leave the office with my equipment heading to the elevator. I check the time. "12:25" I sigh. There goes half my lunch. Five minutes my ass. I reach the office putting the stuff back inside and I rush to my car.

With that over, I can finally look forward to tonight. But first lunch.
