Later that day, I'm working at the my job at Wet Seal. Continuosly greeting people, helping them find things, and chechig them out. The same things from noon to six. And all through my shift, I can't stop thinking about the curly haired boy.

Something about just caught my attention. The perfect bone structure? Striking green eyes? Or was it just his beauty in general? I don't know, but something about him just wouldn't allow me to stop thinking about him.

I'm woken up from my daydream by a young girl tapping on the counter with a hanger. Dangling on the hanger is a neon green shirt with black and silver studs on the collar. She is also holding a handful of thongs.

"You gonna help me check out or what?"

"Ya"

She pays me for the thongs and shirt and shuffles out into the main mall.

"Brat," I whisper.

At six I walk out to the parking lot to where Lupe usually parks her car. She's already there, waiting to drive me home.

"Hey gurl, how was your shift?" she asks.

I reply quietly, "The usual, how about you?"

"My day was pretty good, got a small promotion."

"A promotion! Thats awesome Lupe! How big of a promotion?" I scream excitedly at her.

"Oh nothing big, I just got promoted to MANAGER OF DAIRY QUEEN!"

"Whoohoo! That's way better than taking orders in the drive through! I'm so proud of you!"

We talk about our jobs the rest of the drive home.

When we pull into the driveway I glance out te window and see Curly walking. The second the car gets turned off I hop out and trot over the him, Lupe following close on my heels.

"Um, hey. I'm Chloe. This is Lupe," I jut my thumb in her direction, "We live right over there," I say, pointing to our small townhouse.

"Oh, hello, I'm Harry," he has a heavy British accent. Daaaaammmnn, "I uh, jut moved here from Homes Chapel. It's uh, in England."

I can't help but notice that he can't take his eyes away from mine.

"Oh, nice to meet you, uh Harry? Was it? But we should probably be heading home, it's starting to rain." Luoe says nudging me. I hadn't even noticed the rain untill now. We wave goodbye and head back inside, out if the rain.
