Everything You Want

Chapter Two

My body sunk into the plush couch as I snatched the remote up from the other side of the couch. Alex was at University and I was left home alone, kind of taking a break from the studio. I had enrolled in Law school last year, but quickly dropped out and become an artist, something my mom only pretended to support me in.

I searched through the recorded shows and turned on The Vow, a movie that I loved. Alex thought that it was a stupid movie, but I could easily relate to the girl in that movie. Their relationship was so perfect; one that only happened in movies.

As I watched the movie for the hundredth time, I put myself into the movie, only wishing that I had someone would actually care for me that much.

It was Friday. The day that Mr. Waters from the bakery was coming to see his new logo.

I got up at around nine. Alex had already left for University, so I was alone. I shuffled my iPod and jumped in the shower, glad that one of my favorite songs had come on. Decode by Paramore.

"How can I decide what's right?

When you're clouding up my mind

I can't win your losing fight

All the time

Nor could I ever own what's mine

When you're always taking sides

But you won't take away my pride

No, not this time

Not this time

How did we get here

When I used to know you so well?

How did we get here?

Well, I think I know

The truth is hiding in your eyes

And it's hanging on your tongue

Just boiling in my blood

But you think that I can't see

What kind of man that you are

If you're a man at all

Well, I will figure this one out

On my own

(I'm screaming, I love you so)

On my own

(But my thoughts you can't decode)

How did we get here?

When I used to know you so well?

How did we get here?

Well, I think I know

Do you see what we've done?

We're gonna make such fools of ourselves

Do you see what we've done?

We're gonna make such fools of ourselves

How did we get here

When I used to know you so well?

How did we get here

When I used to know you so well?

I think I know

I think I know

There is something I see in you

It might kill me, I want it to be true"

I turned off the shower and my iPod, finsished getting ready, and walked out of the flat, locking it behind me. I'll admit, I was a bit nervous considering I'd never done a logo for a business before, but I made an exception for Mr. Waters who I'd known for quite a while now.

I entered my studio, turned on all of my lights, and drew the shades so that no natural light could come in. Call me crazy, but I only like looking outside if it's raining or snowing. No sunshine.

I plugged in my iPod and turned on my Britt Nicole and Ed Sheeran playlist and sat down in one of the cushy chairs in the corner, clicking on the lime green floor lamp that shone over my head. My phone rang and I got up and answered.

"Hello?"

"Hello, Callista. This is Mr. Waters, calling about the logo. I have come down with the flu and can't come pick it up and see it myself, so I'm sending one of my favorite and most trusted employees. He should be there in about half an hour." he informed me.

"Alright, sounds great. Hope you feel better soon." I said cheerfully.

"Thank you. Goodbye."

"Bye."

I spent the next twenty minutes I spent cleaning my studio. It was seriously messy considering I'd been super busy lately with all these paintings and sculptures. I heard a knock on the door and turned the music down a bit, smoothed out my shirt and hair, and opened the door.

The person standing on the other side was all-too familiar.
