Chapter 4

Back to work. Yippee. First have a horrible day at school. Get detention for absolutely no reason and waste valuable time! And then have absolutely NO Idea why two gorgeous boys that where shades all the times know each other. Isn't that bizarre? Speaking of bizarre...

      "Yo Roseanne, some kid threw up on the canned goods aisle." Kim said as she handed me a mop while looking at her nails. Sorry I mean't admiring her claws.

  "it's ROSE! And I already have to stack these boxes in aisle 18! Why can't you do it?"

   "Ew are you kidding me? I just got my nails done. Their acryclic." She added like I care?! "Plus, I'M IN CHARGE. Dawn's sick and that means YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO ME!" she said in her sneer voice as she flipped her pale blonde hair over her shoulder with her fancy acrylic nails.

    I wasn't in the mood to argue so I just grabbed the mop and started to make my way over to the canned goods aisle. As I turned the corner, I was met with a hard yet warm wall. Ouch. I looked up to see it wasn't a wall but Jerry.

"oh my god Jerry I'm so sorry I didn't see you there!"

  "oh it's you, ha ha thank god. I was beginning to die from boredom"

"ha ha I didn't think I was that fun but thanks Jerry"

"so do you havebreak anytime Soon?"

  "well" I said looking around and biting my lip. "I guess I could take a 20"

  "Great! So NOW can you tell me how you and Ryan net?"

   "only if you tell ne how YOU and Ryan met."

   He looked at me as if he was deciding something in his mind.

"...Fine, but you tell me first" he said sticking his tongue out.

   "okay, well me and Ryan met at school on his first day cause he cut in front of me and my friend in the lunch line. Then we argued a couple times and ended up in detention together. Your turn."

   He closedhis eyes in deep thought and Then took a dep breathe

    "Me and Ryan are best friends but more like brothers. I've been with him for many years. We met at...umm.... a place.... about 5 years ago." he said the last part a bit nervously and kind of looked away. He looked a bit sad, but I didn't want to press him for details. His expression was full of guilt and didn't suit his adorable face at all.

    I don't know why, i think it was because of his sad expression, but leaned over and gave him a hug. He probably felt one coming becuz he immediately put his arms around me too.  I felt comfortable with his warmth and safe. I knew at the least, we had become good friends. We stood like that for a few seconds before we were rudely interrupted and broke apart.

    "Oh ROOOOSSSIIIEE" screamed an all too familiar name. My eyes widened in shock and I stiffened.  "WHERE ARE YOUU!" Mick sang. He finally came into view and was wearing a uniform similar to mine. Huh?

  "I know what your thinking. 'Why are you wearing that?' well it's kinda a requirement for employees" he said emphasizing employees. A light bulb went over my head after a few moments of confusion.

   "o my god. WERE GONNA BE WORK BUDDIES!" I screamed grasping his shoulders.Tackling him. He chuckled and balanced us from taking a fall on the tile floor.

   "Oh hey Jerry! What are you doing here?" Mick with one raised eyebrow.

  "hey Jer, where are you man!!" said yet another famiar voice. How the heck did we all meet here?
