Chapter 1:

Payton's POV

"WAKE UP!" a female voice screams and wakes me.

I groan and open my eyes to see one of my best friends, Annika, sitting on top of me.

"Annika, what the hell! It's 8 am! Get off of me!" I say.

"Sorry!" she laughs.

"Yeah, I'm sure you are. Now can you please tell me why you came to my house at 8 in the morning?" I ask.

"We're supposed to go looking for jobs, remember? We planned this two weeks ago. Come on, Pay. Keep up." she says.

Shit. I totally forgot.

"Sorry Annie, I completely forgot. You know I just finished exams. My brain is practically fried." I explain.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah. I know. Hurry up and get ready, babe! We have jobs to find."

I get up and walk to my bathroom and get ready. I try to make myself as presentable as possible. I curl my short blonde hair and let it fall around my shoulders. Then I did my makeup, applying eyeliner and mascara to my blue eyes and nude lipstick to my lips.

I dress professionally, because I need to impress a potential employer.

Next thing I know, Annika and I are headed out into downtown to find a job.

---------------------------------------------

"I can't believe I haven't found a job yet!" I exclaim, clearly frustrated with the outcome of today.

I'm currently hanging out with my best friends: Annie, Madi, and Tony. I met all 3 of them at the university when I first started two years ago. We've been inseparable ever since.

"Awe Pay, you'll find one! Don't worry." Annie says reassuringly.

"Easy for you to say. You have a job!" I reply.

"Hey now, it's not Annie's fault she got hired and you didn't." Tony tells me.

I sigh. He's right.

"You're right. I'm sorry Annie. I'm just really stressed and if I don't find a job, I don't know how I'm gonna pay for school next year." I apologize.

"It's fine, no worries." she smiles.

"Pay, I think my uncle is looking for a babysitter for the summer. Loads of money. I can get you an interview." Madi says.

"Really? You would do that?" I say excitedly.

"You're my best friend. Of course I would." she giggles.

"Thank you thank you thank you!" I scream.

----------------------------------------------

" 'Kay so the interview is tomorrow at noon. My uncle will be at that huge business building on Main Street. You know which one I'm talking about right?" Madi asks.

"Yeah, yeah, thank you so much Madi! This means a lot!"

"Anytime, babe! Good luck tomorrow!"
