~Taylors POV~

I woke up and stretched. Too lazy to get up I just lay there looking up at the ceiling. I turn my head to look at the clock. It was. 2:30!?!? O crap! I can't believe I slept that long! I have work in two hours! Suddenly not that tired anymore I ran down stairs and raided the kitchen looking for something to eat real fast.

"Good morning sleeping beauty" I jumped at the voice and turned around to see Mrs. Fisher sitting down at the table.

"I'm so sorry for sleeping so late! I just kept waking up through out the night! I'm so sorry!" I said frantically while still looking for something to eat.

"O dear don't worry about that! Sleep as long as you want! Now let me fix you something to eat while you get ready! You have to work right? What time?" She said calmly while grabbing things out of the pantry. I look at the clock in the kitchen and its already 3:00!  thirty minutes have passed already!?!

"In an hour! James will be here in like forty minutes!" I started to freak out. I'm going to lose my job that I haven't even started yet! Then what will I do! I'm such a failure!

"No you are not. You are not a failure." I looked up at Mrs. Fisher. I guess I said that out loud. Stupid me.

"Go get ready Taylor! I will have you're lunch ready for you when you come back down. Now go go go go go!!!!!!" She pushed me out of the kitchen. I nodded my head and ran up stairs. I went straight to the bathroom and started the shower. I got my phone out and played some music. Luckily it was an IPhone 3GS so I had music on it.  "I'm only me when I'm with you" by Taylor Swift came on. I remember the first time I heard this song. I found it just one day on YouTube. I showed it to Niall and it was our song instantly. We always loved it. I started singing along until the next song came on. I turned off the water and got out and dried off and wrapped the towel around me. 

I walked into "my" bedroom and went to the closet and got my work clothes out. Once I was done I started to dry my hair with the blow dryer that Mrs. Fisher. I mean. Jenny. Let me borrow. Once I was done drying it I pulled my hair into a pony tail and put my shoes on then ran down stairs and into the kitchen.

"With that voice you should try out for X factor" Jenny (Mrs. Fisher) said as soon as I was in the kitchen.

"I'm not that good. It's just something. I do. I guess." I looked down at the ground which suddenly became very interesting.

"O good grief. Kids these days." She mumbled to herself and left the kitchen. I started eating my sand which. I don't even know what all was on it I was in such a hurry and so hungry I ate it so fast. I washed my plate and put it back into the cabinet. Once I finished cleaning up after myself I decided just to sit. I sat on the bar stool then started to think. Niall popped into my head. I wonder if he will remember me. Maybe he forgot about me and found some other, much cooler best friend that didn't have so many problems. Maybe it's even a guy. Maybe he got a girlfriend. Maybe he stayed in touch with my mom and didn't forget about me. No. It was so long ago. O well. Maybe I will see him again soon. No. I doubt it. My thoughts were stopped from a car honking.A lot. Noisy people. Then I remembered.That was James here too take me too work. I mentally face-palmed myself and started  too run out of the kitchen.

"Bye Jenny! I'm off too work!" I yelled up the stairs then grabbed my bag and ran out the door. I got into the car buckled my seat belt then we were off to work!!

"Well hello there." James said while I was making sure I had everything.

"Hey! Sorry I didn't hear you honking sooner. I was. Um. Busy." I smiled uneasily.
