Chapter 5: Job Looking

Cody's POV
"Baskin Robbins?" I asked looked at Darby.

"Yep, it's my job." he said smiling.

"You just work there for discounts on ice cream." I said rolling my eyes smirking.

"Bitch you know it, plus free ice cream." he said smirking also and licked his lips.

I shook my head laughing as we walked up the steps. He pushed the doors open and a wave of cold air and the smell of all different flavors hit me.

"I'm back bitches!" Darby yelled and I blinked. I'm surprised costumers didn't look at him weird.

A guy with platinum blonde hair shook his head smiling. He walked our way and smiled at Darby shaking his head once again.

"Your lucky the customers are use to you and that our boss isn't here." the guy said.

"Austin, chill of course I'm lucky." Darby said and Austin rolled his eyes then looked at me.

"You must be Cody the back stabber." he said laughing as we shook hands.

"I'm actually Cody Cabot, but sure." I said rolling my eyes smiling.

Austin smirked and put his hands on his hips. He looked me up and down making me raise a eyebrow. Then he turned to Darby.

"He can't work here." Austin said.

I blinked, all he did was look at me. More like checked me out.

"I understand." Darby said nodding.

"What the fuck-" I started to say.

"That's the reason right there. No need for another Darby or worse." Austin said.

"Hey!" Darby and I said at the same time.

"Sorry Darby, your great and all but we have lost customers because of you." Austin said and Darby pouted.

"Let's go to the next place I thought you might can get a job at." Darby said turning away from Austin and I.

"Okay." I said nodding.

****

"Old Navy?" I asked groaning.

"Yeah, what's the problem?" Darby asked raising a eyebrow.

"Moms and kids are." I said and he rolled his eyes.

"Deal with it." he said opening the door.

Another hit of cold air. It would be good to work at places like this during the summer. Darby decided to look around a bit. I went to the counters where the workers were. I went to the guy that looked less busy than the others.

"Excuse me?" I said after clearing my throat.

"Hold on a second." the guy said turning around to smile and my eyes widen as his smile vanished.

"Ashton." I said and he blinked then glared.

"What are you doing here?" his polite tone long gone, replaced with a much colder one.

"I'm here for a job;" I said then raised a eyebrow. "What's your problem with me?" I asked.

"What's my problem?" he said in a louder tone as his jaw hitched and people turned to look our way. He gulped looking down as his cheeks tinted with pink. "Ple-Please just leave me alone." he said looking up at me glaring.

"What did I do?" I asked and he opened his mouth but something buzzed. He pulled a walkie talkie out of his pocket.

"Yes I'll go on my break now, thanks for reminding me." he said and put the walkie talkie back in his pocket before walking from behind the counter.

"Ashton." I said as he started heading to the front doors. "As-" I started saying as I was about to go after him but my arm was grabbed.

I turned to look and it was Darby. I sighed as he looked completely confused.

"Cody where are you-" Darby began.

"I'll be back." I said before following Ashton outside. "Ashton!" I yelled and he stopped walking and turned to look at me, glaring.

If looks could kill, I'd be dead right then and there. I gulped and took a step back.

"Don't call my name anymore. I don't want to have nothing to do with you." he said.

"What did I do?" I asked.

"Look, just leave me alone." he said.

"No, I have the right to know what I did." I said and he shook his head sighing.

"You-" he began to say.

"Cody!" Darby yelled running outside towards me and I blinked. "Fill in these papers and turn them in, and boom bang you might get the job!" he said waving a packet around grinning as I just blinked more. "Oh." he said glancing at Ashton then back at me. "Am I intur-" he started to say.

"No, no your not." Ashton said.

"As-" I began.

"Bye Cody." he said and turned his back to me before walking away.

I sighed as Darby looked at me. "Uhhh am I missing something here?" he asked and I mentally face palmed.
