Lauren.

I stretch across my bed, groaning and making weird baby animal noises, I roll over on my side and glance at my alarm clock seeing I had two minutes before it goes off, I huff quietly to myself, it's always the way, and as much as I would like to close my eyes and get now ninety seconds of sleep, I won't be able to, because the sun is shining through my windows, illuminating my bedroom, reminding me that I forgot to close the curtains last night, so even though I don't close my eyes, I still refused to move my body from my bed until my alarm blasted through the room.

I sigh and pull myself up in bed shutting my alarm off and rubbing the sleep from my eyes, another day in the office for Lauren Jauregui, I stretch my arms above my head before swinging my legs over the edge of the bed, padding my way into the bathroom.

I follow through with my morning routine, and enter the office always with ten minutes to spare, I head into the break room, and eat the breakfast I bought along the way, before heading towards my stationed desk.

I log into my computer and check my work emails, seeing two from my boss, giving me the list of things that I had to do today, so I throw myself into my work.

By the time lunch time rolled around, my eyes were beginning to hurt from staring at the screen for so long, so I was grateful that I could go to lunch, just as I was about to leave my cubicle, my boss pops up in front of me, literally it's like he came out of nowhere.

"Lauren, heading out for lunch?" He asks.

"Yes sir, would you like me to get you anything?"

"Oh no, but once you have finished your lunch break, could you head down to IT support and pick up the blue prints" He asks while staring down at his phone.

"Of course sir, do they know I am coming?" I ask.

"Uhm no, I was hoping you could persuade them into giving you the blue prints" He smiles at me.

I chuckle lightly and nod my head, he always uses me, because I am quite good at getting what I want.

"Of course sir" I smile.

"Excellent, once you have brought them back here, you are free to go home"

"I still have a couple things on the list that I need to finish" I explain.

"You can finish them tomorrow, it's not a problem, as long as they're complete by tomorrow lunch time" He smiles.

"I will make sure they are"

"Great, see you later Lauren" He disappears with his eyes glued to his phone.

I must admit, I have quite a laid back boss, I am lucky really, he actually cares about his employees unlike most boss's.

I exit the building and look up and down the side walk, wanting to eat somewhere new, I always go to the same place every single day and I am starting to get a little bored of that, I need to change it up sometimes, otherwise I grow sick of food, and I love food too much to be sick of it.

I pass multiple food places as I stroll down the side walk, it doesn't matter how far I go, or how long I take this time, because I won't be returning to the office straight away, so I have gone further than I normally would, but I stop when I spot a small diner with a certain brunette waiting the tables, I knew she was a waitress, but I didn't know that she worked this close to me.

I smile softly to myself and enter, sitting myself down on a table for two by the window, My eyes scan over the menu, trying to find something to apease my appetite, but not seeing anything jumping out at me, other than the milkshakes, I haven't had one of those in forever, so that is definitely going on my order.
