The next day Eliza decided to look around for jobs. She didnt want to work at a restaurant because if customers give her crap about the cooks food, she will be rude right back and lose her job. She didnt want to work where there were beauty products like salons or beauty stores. So that limits her options. She decides to check the nearest clothing store. She walks in to American Eagle and goes up to the desk. "Excuse me but are you by any chance hiring?" She asks the lady."Im sorry we just filled our last position..." The lady says, Eliza nods and tries to find another place she could work at. As she is walking around she notices the famous coffee shop where she met Vincent at. Maybe they have a job offer there... She thinks to herself. She walks in and goes to the front desk.
"Excuse me sir, but do you by any chance have any job positions i could apply for here?" I ask.
"Actually yes we do, we need a new barista. Ill go get you an application to fill out..." He says and walks in the back. He comes back out and hands her the paper.
"Thank you." She smiles.
"Your welcome." She then walks over to the seat Vincent has been sitting in and starts to fill out the form. About fifteen minutes later she is handing it back to the man. "Thank you and we will let you know soon if you got the job or not." Eliza nods and walks out, going back home. Surprisingly, she sees Avery there already.
"Your home early." Eliza says.
"Where were you? With your boy toy there?" Avery asks, wiggling her eyebrows.
"Actually no, i went to look for jobs like i said i was." Avery nods, faking disappointment. "Is that pizza?" Eliza asks and Avery nods. Eliza basically dives for a slice and eats it quickly.
"Damn girl you eat a little too much unhealthy junk food..." Avery says, watching her roommate inhale a slice of pizza. Eliza then abruptly stops, looking down at herself.
"I think i should start jogging daily..." She then says. Avery looks at her, confusion written all over her face.
"What?"
"I mean, look at me... Im way out of shape... I think im going to start jogging to get in shape." Avery suddenly feels guilty for saying something.
"E, i didnt mean-" Eliza cuts her off.
"Why are you trying to stop me from doing something good for me? I need it and you know it, your just trying to spare my feelings..."
"Im sorry, do what you want..." Eliza then walks to her room to find something suitable to wear while going on a jog. She finds leggings and a sweatshirt that kind of clings to her and decides thats good enough for now. She walks back out, seeing an even more confused Avery. "Your starting now!? After you just ate?" Eliza nods.
"Ill be fine..." She says before she walks out. She decides to jog in the park nearby since it has many trails where joggers already go. She starts up on a trail and starts jogging, of course she gets out of breath easy but she keeps going anyways. While on her jog she takes in the scenery, the sun is setting and it looks nice, until a couple minutes later when the sun is completely gone and its just darkness with a couple dim lights on the trail. She sees a shadowy figure up ahead, it kind of looks like a bunny, but its running from something... She then sees a much larger shadowy figure that looks like a man, chasing the bunny. Eliza decides to stop jogging for a second, to catch her breath and hope the man doesnt notice her. When the bunny and man reach the dim light, Eliza lets out a little gasp. Is that... Vincent? She asks herself in her head. She then decides to keep jogging towards them. The man looks over and immediately knows who it is, but makes sure to grab the bunny before she reaches him.
"Well look who it is..." He says, holding the bunny securely so it doesnt escape.
"What are you doing here this late?" She asks, a little out of breath. He shows her the bunny.
"Keeping my bunny from escaping..." He says and Eliza gasps.
"You have a bunny!?" Vincent smiles and nods, holding out the furry creature to her.
"You can pet her if you want... I remember yesterday you were looking at the bunnies..." Eliza hesitantly reaches to pet the bunny. Its so soft! She thinks to herself.
"Whats her name?" She asks.
"Lula."
"Lula..." She repeats, smiling.
"So what are you doing out here this late?" He asks, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, i decided i needed to get in shape so im jogging now." She says and Vincent looks her up and down.
"Get in shape or lose some weight? Because if its the second thing there is no need because you are perfect already..." This makes Eliza blush, nobody has ever said that except maybe her parents.
"Well it is get in shape, but maybe you think im perfect but i know im not..."
"Well you should consider not thinking that... But i have to get back to my house since i have to wake up early tomorrow." Vincent says, starting to walk away.
"Oh? To do what?" Vincent just shrugs, smirks, and walks away. Eliza furrows her eyebrows then shrugging and going back to finish her jog.
