Dawn's P.O.V

"Here you go, sir. And here is your change." I smiled and handed the man his bag of food. His little daughter was starring at the bag as I handed it over to him.

"Thank you." Smiled the little girl back, and then walked out the door following her dad.

"Isn't that cute?" Dawn said standing next to me.

"Yeah she is." I nodded.

"Okay girls, your shift is over and its closing time, time to go home." Our boss said walking over to us.

"Let me go get our stuff, I will be back." Dawn said before disappearing into the back.

"Before I forget, here is your paycheck." Said ­­Jim as he pulled two slips of envelopes from his pocket.

"Thank you." I said taking both of them.

"Zoey I don't mean to intrude in your personal life but didn't you say when you were applying for this job that you were looking for a car. That doesn't look like Dawn's car." He said gesturing to car outside.

"Um yeah, it's my car. My mom bought it for me; it's been about a week." I answered

"Oh that's nice. If you don't want this job anymore just let me know ahead of time alright? I need to hire some new employees."

It's weird how I never thought about quitting my job. I mean I got a car and I have some money saved up. Or maybe I have and I just forgot why I didn't want to quit. Oh well I'm quitting.

"Oh I haven't thought of that really. I mean I been working here for awhile I made enough money to last for two years on my own. And next year I'm probably going to do some internship. But I could help you out sir if you want me to. I know some sophomore, who were freshman last year on my track team I could ask them."

"That's nice of you, I would appreciate that. And could you perhaps stay here until they know how to run this place? I will continue to pay you." Jim replied.

"Yeah sure," I nodded my head.

"I'm back so now let's go." Dawn said walking back carry her purse and mine and her phone in her hand. I handed her paycheck before I forgot.

"You two have a good night." Jim said as he waved us goodbye.

"Bye!" Dawn and I said at the same time as we walk out and into my car.

"So what are you going to do tonight?" Dawn asked me as I was too busy on my phone.

"Huh? Oh um , Jessie texted me and hour ago saying that I have to go to her party, because she saw me at Ellie's party and now she's making me go to her party."

"Ugh, I hate that girl, she such a bitch and she's a slut too!" Dawn groaned loudly. I rolled my eyes.

"I know she is but she is nice to me, so I'm nice back. Do you want to go with me?" I asked.

"She's nice to me too but I hate her. And no, I made plans with Luke. We're going to watch a movie at his place."

"Okay then, I guess it's just me." I shrugged. I put my phone away and turned on the car and pulled out of the parking lot.

"Hey, so what were you and Jim talking about when I was gone? Dawn asked.

Long story short I told her what we were talking about and she was okay with the whole idea and didn't really give a shit.

"Should I drop you off or...?"

"I have my stuff at your place. I'm getting ready at your place." She said getting straight to the point.

"Okay then, do you want me to drop you off at Luke's place?" I asked and she nodded.

"Hey why don't you take Calum or one of our friends from our group?"

"Calum is a no and everyone is already there they were talking about it earlier today."

"Oh, how come I didn't know?"

"Because your Dawn and you forget everything if you don't care about it."

"Very true,"

So in the next 30 minutes or so, we reached my place. Dawn rushed out of my car and into my house. And beat me to my bathroom where she spent her time taking and shower and washing her hair. Which left me to use the guest bathroom across the hall. When I got out I got dressed and was putting on my makeup when Dawn came out with wet hair that she was drying with a spare towel that I had left in my bathroom.

"You did not just use my bathroom to wash your hair?"

"What? Your shampoo smells so good and I wanted my hair to smell good too." She said and then taking a whiff of her hair.

"You're such a weirdo." I shrugged and went back to getting ready.

"Zoey!" Dawn shouted from my bathroom.

"What?" I asked walking into my bathroom to see that she had pulled out my straightener and my curling iron and all my hair products that I use.

"Where is your hair drier?" She asked.

"What the fuck Dawn? Are you seriously going to use my stuff just from some stupid date?"

"It's not just any date it's a date with Luke Hemmings." She answered back as if cupid had shot an arrow into her ass.

I rolled my eyes and walk out of my bathroom and into one of my drawers to pull out my hair dryer. "Here," I said handing it to her.

"Why is there and not here?" She asked plugging it in and then spraying my heat protection spray in her hair.

"Because I let my hair natural dry." I explained.

"Well you should keep it here for emergencies."

"Oh like a date with Luke Hemmings?" I asked jokingly.

She blushed and I shook my head and went back to finishing my makeup and doing a simple hair style.

"Zoey!" The devil shouted once again. No not Calum the other one.

"What?" I asked annoyed.

"Well I was going to ask you how do I..." She stopped in her speech and starred at me. "Do that to my hair right now!" She demanded.

"What the halo braid?" She nodded her head.

"No." I said and walked away.

"But Zoey..." She whined.

"Shut up and let's go." I said leaving my room.

"Ugh," She groaned from behind me.

3 hours later

Calum's P.O.V

"Hello?" I answered my phone that was ringing.

"Asshole! Oh wait we got past that. Now you're my fake boyfriend." A drunk voice rambled.

"Zoey, where the fuck are you?" I groaned into the phone.

She laughs in a drunken state, "I'm at Jessie's party." She slurs

"Why are you calling me?" I ask

"I don't know, I was scrolling through my phone and stopped at your name."

"Okay..." I said really confused.

"You know I hate you right?" She said out of the blue.

"Yeah I know." I said as I scramble through my clothes that are all over my floor to find a shirt to put on.

"But...you haven't been mean lately so I don't hate that much." She was drunk. I didn't exactly think about what I was about to do next I just did what my instinct told me to do.

"I'm coming to get you." I tell her as I grab my car keys.
