I Know I Shouldn't But I Just Can't Stop Myself

Surprise!

Chapter 14
I'm sorry guys, something happened and the last chapter didn't update in its entirety, along with the author's note that I always put at the end of the chapter. So I'm going to continue chapter 13 as best as I could into this one. I'm sorry if any confusion was brought upon y'all. Here's your update :)

Martin
"Hey dude." I say to Scooter as we bro hug. He tells me hi and greets Crystal.
"Hi Crystal, it's nice to see you again." Scooter gives her a hug.
"Hey, same as well." She replies and hugs him back.

We then entered Scooter's house and got to work.

"Aannnnddd...ITS OUT!" Scooter exclaims as the track is released. Crystal walks up to me.
"Congratulations Martin!" She wraps her arms around my torso, and I hug her back.
"Thank you, Crystal."

"Congrats man," Scooter congratulates, hugging me as well. "I'm so proud of you."
"Thanks!"

"This calls for a celebration!" Scooter announces, and I happily agreed. Scooter takes out some alcohol: Beer, vodka and wine, along with some glasses. I take a bottle of beer.
"Crystal, what would you like?" I asked her.
"Oh thanks but I don't drink alcohol. I'm not of age yet."
"Scooter, I think we have a good girl on our hands." I tease, speaking to Scooter but keeping my eyes on Crystal, and smiling.
"Ah come on, Crystal. Live a little." Scooter comments.
"No, boys. I will not." Crystal declines, giggling.
"Suit yourself." I say, letting the conversation end.

Crystal-Violet
The drive back to the studio was mostly quiet, that being me trying to make small talk while Martin was doing something on his laptop.

We were just entering the elevator when Martin spoke. "So how'd you like your first day?"
"Oh my god I loved it, thanks for choosing me for the job. Is it like this everyday for you?"
"Not everyday, but often times it is."
"Don't you ever get tired?"
"Of course I do," he laughs. "But I've learned to cope with it."

I paused for a few seconds; the elevator doors opened and Martin let me out first. I resumed the conversation while walking to his studio. "When do you have your time off?"
"Next week, I have two weeks to myself. I bought a ticket to Amsterdam. I always go back home whenever I get time off."
"Oh that's great. Will I have to stay here and keep your spinny chair warm for you?" I laughed lightly, earning a chuckle from him.
"Well how about you come with me?"

My jaw dropped, I wasn't expecting that at all!
"Oh my gosh, yes Martin! I'd love too!" I hugged him. He laughed and hugged me as best as he could, considering him having his laptop clutched in his left arm. "You're most welcome. I'll ask Caroline if she wants to come, too"
"Okay, I hope she can."

We enter the studio and I set my purse down on the couch, taking a seat. Martin takes his usual seat, on his spinny chair and he sets the studio lights to changing colors.

I then suddenly remembered that I had an event written down. I quickly took out the planner and flipped it open to the page that I had written down the event. "Martin?"
"Yes?"
"Um, at the interview, I have something scheduled and I wrote it down. I should've showed it to you at Scooter's so he could confirm it right then and there but you guys looked so busy, I didn't want to interrupt."
"That's fine." He motions for me to come to him. I showed him what I'd written down
"Okay, I'll email it to Scooter."

I nodded and closed the tiny little book, and put it back in my purse.

"Crystal?" Martin calls out. I hum to acknowledge him. He turns halfway to look at me sideways.
"You did excellent today. I'm very proud of you."
I smiled and thanked him with my eyes.

Girlllll tell me why that last chapter didn't update the way I wanted to. Anyways, I'm sorry for the longish waits between the last few chapters, I had my phone taken away. But I have it back now, so it's all happy! Well, not that anyone cares but...IM NEARING 200 READS! I'd never thought that this story would end up doing this well. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you, thank you. Y'all mean the world to me. Thanks so much for reading. I love you so much.
