Wyatts POV

" there's food in the fridge
and don't forget the interview for your internship
PS: don't be late
Love you
Mom, xoxo "

" Hmm mom " I say smiling, emphasizing on the word mom. I remember the day Mrs.Graham took me in like I was her own son, like it was yesterday. I was a six year old boy, scared to death for I had no idea as to why my father took me there. Mrs. Graham and her husband were great friends of my father. But I wasn't really close to them. I zone out

" Wy, daddy is going away for a while, and I need you to be strong okay? " he said, as I watched his eyes water. " Mr. Graham and I need you to be the man of the house, can you do that for us? " He asked, placing his right hand on my shoulder and kneeling down on one knee. I nod and hug him tight letting my tears run down my eyes. He let's go. Mrs.Graham holding baby Eiva she was 2 years old when I moved in. Mrs.Graham and I watch them as they leave from the front door.

I Shake my head coming back to reality, only to realize that my eyes were crying. I inhale deeply, wiping the tears from my eyes. So many unanswered questions but I felt like it would be less painful to just leave the past behind.

I notice that they left breakfast on the table. I make myself some coffee and eat a muffin. After I finished eating, I wash the dishes and clean the table. I leave home about an hour before my interview, in order to get there in time.

I arrived at the Internet cafe. I'm not nervous but I feel like I should be. I get in and take a sit. Waiting for them to call my name. I impatiently tap my fingers on the chair. 

" Mr. Mcgarret, Mr.Cruz would like to see you " said a beautiful  young woman, I think in her mid 20's. Quite tall and yet she chooses to wear heels, making her 6 feet tall. She gave me a kind smile, and I returned it.

He asked me a couple of questions, not really relevant to the job but I answered them anyway. It wasn't really a fancy job. I was applying for a job as a bartender. After I answered all of the questions. He gave me the job. I left the room. I felt confident and relieved. I walk to my car and head for the road.

Eiva's Pov 

I closed my eyes taking deep breaths and placing my hand on the knob while slowly turning it. It finally opens, I felt all eyes on me almost as if they were trying to see right through me. I quickly get in closing the door behind me. I rush to my sit. Mrs. Smith didn't say a thing at all, I was surprised. "I guess God heard my morning prayer," I think to myself. I look around and I see Skye sitting on the row behind me to the left. She politely smiles, and I gave her a wink. I quickly got my books and pens from my bag and began listening to Mrs. Smith.

This  lessons couldn't have lasted any longer. The bell finally rings dismissing us . I start packing my things, I hear a high pitched and contagious laugh getting closer and closer. I start laughing at Skye's laughter. She hugs me from behind and pecks my check. Skye and I have known each other for only 3 years but it feels like I've known her forever. She is kind of like the sister I never had. I know it's a cliché but what can I do. I know I can always count on her, for no matter what.

" For a moment there I thought you would leave me here by myself with all this creatures" she said quoting the word creatures " anyways what took you so long, hmm? " she asked with a lifted eyebrow.

"Hahaha, no I couldn't be that cruel" I say with a smile. " my mom had to fix my hair, because apparently it wasn't good enough " I say sarcastically

Skye Laughs and helps me finish packing.

" Want to spend the night at my place? " I ask

" Yeah that sounds great, I'll get a chance to see your Brother " Skye said

I could swear her eyes magically turned into hearts, and she looked like that emoji from whatsapp with the heart eyes.

" Urgh, " I sigh rolling my eyes. " Let's go home, i'm starving " I added

As we walk through the corridor I hear

" Someone call the police cause my heart just got stolen " said Stefan to Skye

And I couldn't help but burst into laughter. I laughed so hard my eyes began to  water. " Couldn't you come up with something better? " I ask still laughing
" The only way i'm calling the police is if they take you with them " Skye says pushing me towards the door while I continue to laugh.

Stefan ran to us " you will be mine, someday " he says walking us out the door. 

Skye rolls her eyes and groans. We stayed out sitting on the benches for about 10 minutes before Wyatt arrived to pick us up.

Wyatt honks calling our attention. We get up saying goodbye to our friends.
We walk to the car.

" GOODBYE GORGEOUS ONE DAY YOU WILL BE MINE" shouted Stefan causing everyone to look at him, and then at Skye because they knew exactly who he was referring to.

" Oh my gosh, let's go" mutters Skye shoving me inside the car.

" Hmm who's your new boy toy ?" asks Wyatt

Only releasing the laughter that was in me.

" Urgh.. can we just go home " mumbles Skye

Wyatt and I laugh for a good 2 minutes until we couldn't take anymore. We inhaled and exhaled.

" Oh how rude of me, how was the interview? " I ask

" it was great, I got the job" Wyatt says with a gigantic smile on his face that got wider by the second

" YAAAAY!!!, Congratulations Wy" we cheer.

"We should celebrate, let's throw a party " Skye suggested

"Uhmm. I don't know about that, a party is a lot of work " I say

Wyatt says " yeah, I that seems like a good a idea. I'll give it some thought "

Wy turns up the radio and we head home.
