*Ashley's P.O.V*
*The next morning*
I woke up to the sound of my alarm. It is eight a.m. and I need to get ready. I got up from my bed and went to the bathroom. I brushed my teeth, washed my face and adjusted the temperature of the water, then got in the shower.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I got out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body. I opened the closet to find suitable clothes for the interview. I picked a blue chiffon blouse, along with a pink knee-length shorts and my TOMS. I got dressed, and now is the time toapply my make-up and do my hair. I put a light layer of blush, lip gloss, eyeliner and mascara. Then, I put the hair-straightener to get heated. After one hour, my hair and my make-up were done, so I was almost done. I took a glance at the clock, it was ten a.m. I went down stairs and took my breakfast. I grabbed my phone and put it in my purse, then wore my coat and got out to take a taxi to were I was heading to apply for the new job.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
*In the manager's office*
"So, how old are you, Ashley?" The manager asks.
"I'm sixteen, sir. I know that I seem so young, but, please, sir, give me a chance."
He took a moment before saying, "Mmm.....Okay, Ashley. Congratulations on the new job. Just don’t let me down. Okay?" Mr. Johnny says.
"Yeah, sure, sir! Thank you so much, Mr. Johnny! When shall I start working?" I answered, happily.
"Starting from tomorrow. Welcome to the Nando's family. Be here at 9:00 o'clock." Mr. Johnny said, smiling.
"Thanks, again, sir. I won't let you down!" I said, enthusiastically while I got out of the office.
"Hey! Did you get the job?" a girl that seemed around my age asked me.
"Yup! I got it. I'm so happy!" I replied, excitement clear in my voice.
"WOHOO! Another member to our family! Congratulations!" She congratulated me in a high-pitched voice.
"Thank you!" I laughed and hugged her.
"Most welcome. What's your name, sweetie?" She asked, smiling, as she returned the gesture.
"Ashley, yours?" I asked, smiling.
"Rosie." She answered.
"Would you like to hang out, sometime later, Rosie?" I asked.
"Sure, why not! I'm free after work, if that is okay with you. Is it?" She asked, smiling.
"I would like to. I just moved here and I don’t have any friends, so it is okay." I answered, grinning widely.
"Okay, then can I have your number?" She frowned a bit as I mentioned that I have no friends, but covered immediately after that.
"Yup!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After we switched numbers, I went home to cook something for us, since she is coming after 1 hour and 30 minutes. I have to get ready and go buy some movies and some groceries.
*After shopping*
I got home, organised the groceries and put the movies beside the television. I still have 45 minutes.
I hopped in the shower and got out after 15 minutes. I walked out of the bathroom, with only my undergarments, then went to the closet to pick something to wear. I changed into a green cropped t-shirt and black sweat pants. I put my hair in a messy bun and didn't bother putting any make-up. I walked to the kitchen and made an orange juice, then I went back to my bedroom. I opened my laptop to check my twitter for any news about One Direction and Little Mix.
Didn't I tell you?....Okay, sorry, I forgot. I am a huge Direxer. (A.N. For those who do not know what it means, it is Directioner + Mixer. (=) Okay, then. Back to what we were saying, there were bunch of of tweets about something that One Direction tweeted, I opened their profile to see what's going on and I-......OH. MY. GOD. They are going to be in London, tomorrow! YAY!
After freaking out and jumping around for good 10 minutes, I decided to call Rosie.
Ring......Ring......Rin-
"Hello?" She said
"Hey, Rosie! Where are you?"
"I'm on my way "
"Kay, Imma' waiting for you."
"Sure, sweetie. Bye!"
"Bye!"
*5 minutes later*
The bell rang and I stood up, energetically to open it. Note the sarcasm. I was in 'my lazy mode'.
"Hola!" Rosie says.
"Heyo! I say back, laughing.
"How are you?" She asks, laughing along with me.
"Fine." I sigh, "What 'bout ya?"
"I am all okay, but is there anything wrong with you?" She replies, concern flashing in her eyes.
"Everything is wrong." I whisper to myself, then remember that I didn't answer, "Nah! I'm great." We sit down at the couch.
*Rosie's P.O.V*
I could've sworn that I heard her say that everything is wrong. But when she replied in another answer, I decided to not push it. Maybe she doesn't wanna talk about it. So I changed the subject.
"Okay, I noticed that you are not from around here. If you do not mind me asking, where are you from?" I ask, smiling sheepishly.
"Yeah, I'm from Toronto, Canada." Ashley answers, grinning.
"I love Canada! I went there only twice, but I loved it there." I say, happily.
"I'm glad to hear this. So Rosie how old are you?" She asks.
"I'm eighteen and you?" I reply.
"I'm sixteen." She answers.
"My new baby girl." I say, grinning.
"Nuh! Two years don’t make me your 'baby girl'." Ashley protests, laughing.
"For me, they do!" I fire back, laughing too.
"Whatever!" She says, as she rolls her eyes.
"Tell me, Ash. Who are your favorite artists?" I ask.
"ONE DIRECTION AND LITTLE MIX!!"She says, loudly.
"Wow!" I say, giggling.
"Sorry," she says, blushing as a tomato.
"Don't be!" I say between fits of giggles.
She says nothing as she she keeps blushing.
"Don't worry, love! I adore them too!" I say, smiling.
"Really?" She says, enthusiastically.
"Yeah! Who is your favourite?" She asks.
"I don’t have one, actually, but my soft spot is for Niall." She says, smiling like an idiot.
"Yeah! He is so cute, although, my favourite is Harry." I say, smiling widely.
"Sure! He is so sexy too, but then again, who from One Direction isn't sexy?!" Ashley says, chuckling.
I laugh loudly, then say, "Point for you, Ashley, you are right!"
"I know." She stucks her tongue out at me then laugh.
I laugh as well, she seems a so nice girl.
*Ashley's P.O.V*
After that nice that I spent with Rosie, she eventually had to go. When she did, I went to sleep, directly without an ounce of hesitation or 2nd thought.
