Fire and Ice

I finished all the paperwork around four a'clock. Needless to say, I was tired. It wasn't necessarily from the paperwork, but from the crazy customer earlier today and of course, Mr. Shaw.

That man sure knows how to drain a woman's soul by just looking at her. He would probably also scares any man that he encounters. I don't really blame them though. I would be the same way.

Didn't seem like it this morning, now did it?

No, but that's because I was having a bad morning and I wanted a little fun. Plus, I act funny when I'm stressed. When I was in high school I would freak out over everything, but now I for some reason just try to amuse myself.

I surely did that by annoying Mr. Shaw. Why am I even addressing him formally in my head?

That's because you're crazy.

I. Am. Not.

Sure.

I gasped in my head.

I stared blankly at my computer screen.

"Maybe I am crazy." I muttered.

"Mmm. Maybe just a tiny bit." I just about jumped a mile high.

The other voice started laughing at me. I turned around in my chair and saw Chase.

I scowled.

I hate being scared.

"You see, I don't find myself almost having a heart attack, funny Chase."

"You're over dramatic" he laughed again. I raised my eyebrow at him and somehow he knew what I was saying.

"Please don't fire me" he said softly. I honestly was trying really hard to not laugh. I hummed and pretended to do something on the computer.

"Arabella please, please, please, please....." this went on for some time. It got to the point where he was clutching his hands together and on his knees. I turned around on my chair to face him.

"And you say I'm dramatic" I started laughing hysterically. He just scowled at me.

"Ha. Ha." He did that sarcastically, although I could see the hint of amusement in his eyes.

"Chase did you need something?" I asked because I believe he came back here for a reason.

"Oh yeah. Umm. I was going to request a day off." He said.

"Oh okay. Just fill out the form and I'll see it tomorrow because I'm going home. I'm tired." I huffed.

"Okay." He smiled. I stood up and got my things. I was about to leave, but Chase gave me hug.

"Umm. Okay I guess." I laughed a awkwardly hugged him back.

I said goodbye to everyone and walked to my car.

Chase is actually a very handsome guy and sweet as well. Natalie thinks that he has a crush on me, to which I totally deny. I just tell her that he's sweet like that. Which is true.

I got in my car and decided to go to the mall. I want to go to Victoria Secret and Pink. Which is basically the same store, but that's besides the point.

I drove for about twenty minutes because there was a lot of traffic. I went into the parking garage and finding a spot was difficult.

The mall was very packed today. I'm not particularly excited about that. I don't do well in huge crowds. I don't like people I don't know touching me. It irritates me to no end.
