Strangers (5sos)

Part 3//Mr.Styles

I walked across the street and stepped into the little pizza shop. I was welcomed by a lady behind the counter with a large, bright smile. I ordered 2 slices of cheese pizza and a vanilla milkshake. I paid the lady and walked outside to take a seat on a bench.

I silently thanked the world for my fast metabolism. If I didn't have it, and considering all the unhealthy food I eat, I could've passed for a whale.

I sat for a couple minutes after scarfing down all that food, I smiled to myself as I licked the remaining pizza grease off my fingers. Gross I know, but hey I forgot to grab a napkin and I didn't feel like getting up to find one.

I looked down to my phone to check the time and saw that it was already 6pm.

My eyes widened in shock, the place I was applying to for a job told me that my application had to be in today by 7:30 and I still didn't know in which part of the city it was!

Running to the front desk of my apartment building I asked the receptionist for directions.

Shît I got lucky this time. The company's headquarter building was only a five minute walk from my building.

I ran to the elevator and rapidly hit the floor 9 button.

It felt like years before I reached my floor, running out of the elevator and fumbling with my keys to get my door open.

Running inside I kicked my vans off and grabbed the hem of my favorite band t-shirt, throwing it onto the floor, I proceeded to trip over my pants as I hoped around trying to get my black skinny jeans off before going into my walk in closet.

Searching through one of my suitcases, I threw on a navy blue fitted dress that went just above my knees with a pair of nude pumps. The reason I liked this dress was although it was very business like, it hugged my curves like a glove, making me look very busty and curvy.

I smiled at myself in the mirror as I straightened my long brunette hair that went almost to my waist.

I grabbed my resume out of my carry on that I finished putting together on my plane ride here.

Looking at the clock it was now 6:45

I walked out of my apartment and rode the elevator to the lobby floor. Walking into the lobby, heads turned as I held my head high, walking swiftly with resume in hand.

I flipped my hair off my shoulder and laughed to myself as I turned and walked out the door strutting down the street.

During high school I had a lot of acne and was that nerdy girl that no one even took a glance at, let alone stared or even talked to. Now people stared, I no longer had acne and I wore clothes that although fit my personality, fit my body right as well. 

I turned the corner as a building with STYLES INC came into view. The receptionist was right, the walk was only about 5 minutes.

I walked into the building and up to the receptionist at the front.

"Hello honey how can I help you?" She asked me

"Hi I'm here to have a meeting with Mr.Styles about the job opening." I told her

"Ah, yes of course. What is your name?"

"Bailey Horan." I said

She dialed a number into the phone and put it on speaker.

"Mr.Styles, a Bailey Horan is here about the job opening available." She spoke into the phone

A deep masculine voice responded to her with "perfect, please send her in."

The receptionist smiled at me pointed down the hallway and said "second door on the right."

I thanked her and walked down the hall to the second door. I didn't know whether or not to knock so I did anyway.

*knock knock*

"Come on it." A voice from inside the office called.

I opened the door and put a smile on my face to make me look most presentable.

"Hello Mr.Styles, my name is Bailey Horan." I said to the man sitting at the desk.

I extended my hand to shake his. He told my hand in his, shook it and said "please, call me Harry"

I blushed at the gesture of him telling me to call him by his first name. I hadn't realized till now just how attractive  Mr.St-, I mean Harry really was.

He gestured to the seat on the other side of the desk right in front of him.

I sat down and crossed one leg over the other and lightly placed my resume on his desk.

He took it and opened it. I watched as his eyes scanned across the papers and a small smirk appear on his face.

I shifted in my seat as his eyes shot up to me, realizing that I had been staring. I quickly looked down at my hands and twirled my fingers around each other.

Harry cleared his throat, signaling for me to look up. I don't know if it was just my imagination but I swore I saw a slight blush on his cheeks.

"You graduated from a very prestige college I see." Harry said placing my resume open on his desk.

"Yes, in management and business." I said.

"That's very impressing Ms.Horan." Harry said smiling at me, reveling dimples on both cheeks.

"Thank you sir." I responded feeling slightly nervous under his stare.

"So what brings you to this job interview, Ms.Horan?"

"Well, I just moved here today actually and my old job was something similar to this but the people I worked for made me miserable. I moved here for a fresh start and I heard wonderful things about this company and I hoped to get a job here myself." I told him the truth and I felt very confident about my response.

"Are you a hard worker?" Harry asked

"Yes sir, I am." I told Harry

"Will you be a challenge for me?" Harry said with a sly smirk, intensely staring at me with his bright green eyes.

I had a feeling he wasn't just talking about me working as an employee...

"Um no Harry I won't be a challenge to work with." I told him, trying to play it off like I didn't receive two different meanings to his question.

Not going to lie though, seeing his toned muscles through his business suit , and his longish hair that was so unbusiness like made me feel a strong attraction to him. He was serious but sexy all at the same time.

I stopped daydreaming and shuddered at the thoughts of Harry. He stood up from his desk with his hand outstretched. Wow he was tall but I figured I hadn't gotten the job and he was just being polite and would shake my hand and tell me I would receive a call soon, and then I would never receive that call.

But to my surprise when I shook his hand he said "welcome to Styles incorporated, you will start Monday morning at 8 sharp, meet me here in my office when u arrive ."

"Thank you so much Harry!" I said happily shaking his hand. I stood up and walked out of his office, smiling at the receptionist as I left.

Was my life finally falling into place after all this time?
