The Secret

one

kinda boring but it'll be a couple chapters before it gets juicy

"Hey, Bailey!" I heard Ashley practically yell as I walked into the shop. "You feeling okay?"

"Yeah, but please hush. I don't want people knowing. Starting a new life remember."

"Right right. I forgot. But you're good?"

"Yep."

"Okay. Hey can you get behind the counter and check people out? We just got a new supply of CDs today and I need to get them out."

"Yeah. Let me clock in first,"

"I can do it. I know your pin."

"Alright thanks."

"You done unpacking?" I yelled out to Ashely as I saw four boys walk in.

"Nope, got posters too! And action figures!"

"Why do people need action figures?"

"Well they seem fine to me." I heard a voice say. I looked up, smiling.

"Okay. Is this all?" I asked looking down at the action figure and shirt of Nirvana.

"Yes."

"That's 38.95." I said putting his purchases in bags.

"Aw c'mon Bailey." He said after looking down at my name tag. "For a cute man like me?"

"You're not a man, you're a boy." I set out my hand for the money, but he put his hand there instead.

"Calum."

"Cool. Money." He scoffed and shook his head, handing me the money.

"Your change is 15.25, thanks for shopping at F.Y.E." He smiled and walked away from the counter. I heard a loud bang and a crash. "Everything okay back there?" I asked.

"It wasn't me." Ashely said pointing towards the 3 other boys. Hmph. I decided to help out Ashley, when I accidently bumped into someone.

"Oh, I'm so sorry!"

"No, I'm sorry." The man said in an Australian accent. "It was my fault." I looked up at him, because he was tall, and smiled reassuringly.

"I'm not the one on the floor though." I laughed and helped him up.

"Although that may be true, I'm sorry."
He apologized again.

"It's okay. You ready to get checked out?"

"What?" He asked kind of worriedly, eyes shot wide.

"Checked out? Purchase your stuff?"

"Oh, oh! Yeah, I'm ready." I heard the other 2 boys laugh. I went behind the counter and rang up his stuff.

"Wait, Luke we need to buy this!" Said a boy with light brown kinda curly hair.

"Why?"
