The Boss

Saturday

The alarm on my iPhone goes off at 7:00am. I groan slightly - I am not a morning person - and squint at the screen of my phone as i clumsily attempt to snooze it. I throw my phone back down on the other side of my bed before promptly falling asleep.
I kept snoozing my alarm until 8:00am, and then I got up and started to get ready.

I get out of bed and shuffle across to my en suite and have a shower.
I wrap my self in a towel and brush my teeth and wash my face.
Finishing up in the bathroom I walk into my bedroom and over to my drawers where I look for some underwear.
As its laundry day I had no normal underwear, so I had to wear my black lace push up bra and thong. Great. I put them on and go over to my wardrobe to work out what to wear for my first day at work.
After standing there, staring at my wardrobe for a good 5 minutes I end up choosing a black sleeveless top with lace trim, and my black super high waisted  skinny jeans.
I sit down at my dressing table and brush through my hair, which takes me ages as its past my waist. After ten minutes of brushing my silver hair, I pull it pack loosely so I can do my makeup.
I decide to go light and neutral so I just put a small amount of foundation on, matteify it with powder, contour and highlight and a quick stroke of mascara on each eye. Makeup done.
I sit and stare at my reflection in the mirror, deciding what to do with my hair. It had to be up, but it was flat as anything from the steam of my shower. I turn my curling iron on and separate my hair and curl each section making it full and voluminous. After curling my hair for 20 minutes, I pull it up into a mid ponytail, pulling at my baby hairs to make it look a bit messier. I grab my glasses from my dresser and head downstairs. I look up at the clock. Shît. I'm going to be late! I grab my leather jacket and black vans, shout up to mum to tell her I'm leaving and get out the door as quickly as I can.

I arrive at the cafe with literally a minute to spare - at least I'm not late - Ella isn't there so it was just Jamie and one of the other Saturday staff, she looked about 18. Jamie sees me come in and comes to greet me.
"Hiya Camari! So glad you're here. Right so today we thought we'd start you off in the kitchen washing up if that's okay?" Jamie asks.
"Yeah of course! That's fine!"
I follow Jamie to the back of the cafe and into the kitchen. He hands me an apron with the logo on. I take my jacket off and put the apron on.
"Right so, it's really simple. All you have to do is remove all the food bits and tissues, etc. and bin them before spraying them with this" he says, gesturing to a tap with a sprayer hose.
"Then all you do is load them into these crates and put the crates into  this steriliser. Got it?" He asks.
"Yeah. I think. I should be okay. It seems simple, so I'll do my best I guess?" I reply.
"Haha, you'll be okay Cam!" Jamie smiles at me before he leaves the kitchen.

I spend the whole day washing up, then it starts getting closer to 2pm, when I'm supposed to finish. Jamie comes into the kitchen looking flustered.
"Hey, everything okay?" I ask.
"Yeah, uh no, not really...Ally can't stay until closing and I'm going to be on my own for two hours and it's impossible to do everything that needs doing on my own. My wife is out today so I can't call her in." Jamie seems really stressed, so I decide to say "I could stay if you like? I know I've only just started but I don't mind? I am a fast learner." I suggest.
"Oh my god, would you really? That would be ama- I mean, you sure you don't mind? I will obviously pay you extra!"
"Of course it's fine, and you don't have to pay me extra, I am only supposed to do 10-2 so pay me for that."
"No no, don't be silly!" Jamie says.
"Okay then. What needs to be done?"

After a busy two hours everything was done and we were ready to close up. Jamie was constantly thanking me for my help, to which I kept telling him it was fine.
At 4:05 we called it a day and closed he cafe. Jamie handed me my wages and said "well it's safe to say you're hired Cam!"
I smile. "Thank you so much! I can't believe I have a job!"
Jamie laughs at me, he then asks "hey do you want a lift home?"
"Oh no it's fine, I literally live five minutes away, don't worry" I say truthfully.
"Oh don't be silly I drive past that road on my way home anyway, come on let me, you've worked so hard today"
"Uh, okay if you want to. Thanks!" I smile and walk into the kitchen to take my apron off and grab my leather jacket.
I turn around and jump as I see Jamie standing behind me.
"Oh sorry I didn't mean to startle you! I just uh-" he runs his hand through his hair and looks at the ground.
"Just what?" I ask, confused.
"Just wanted to say how amazing your CV is. You're so so talented and beautiful, wait I didn't mean to-" Jamie starts to blush and looks panicked.
"Oh well, thanks I guess?" Great, this car journey won't be awkward at all...
"Better get going I guess" I suggest, so we can get out of there.
Jamie steps forward to open the door but as he moves forward, we make eye contact. I leant in and kissed him. I quickly pulled back and started to say "oh my god I am so sorr-" and before I could finish Jamie grabbed my waist and pulled me towards him and started kissing me again. He lifted me up onto the counter and stood between my legs. While we kissed he started running his hand up and down my leg.
