Third Person POV
"So I go to get my dust pan from the hall closet the other day and guess what? I can't find my stupid keys. It's like they disappeared into thin air or something. All I can think of is that they must have fallen into one of the garbage cans while I was doing my rounds last week. I just hope nobody tells Sammy. Because if he finds out I lost my keys again, I'm out of here," Wally vented to his partner across the table from him. She giggled at his silliness, rolling her eyes.
"This is why you need to invest in the radical idea of putting things in your pants pockets," she teased, flipping up his hat. He mumbled in frustration and fixed his hat, a slight blush on his cheeks. She always enjoyed teasing him like this, and he always got a bit irritated by the borderline flirty behavior. Why did her Susie-like teasing have to make him fall for her?
"Anyways Wally, I know that's not on your mind, you're easy to read. What ACTUALLY the matter with you today?" she pressed, resting her cheek on her hand. Wally had been acting stressed as of the past few days, snapping at the littlest of messes and detours with his job, and the woman noticed and decided to give him an outlet to vent to on one of his breaks. He sighed and shook his head, massaging his temples.
"Yeah yeah, the big project the boss is having me help with is not helping with my stress, it's just doubling the amount of work I have to do. The mess from the god damn thing isn't fucking helping either," he confessed, groaning in frustration. She batted her eyes in confusion, smiling slightly at the idea.
"How about this? You make it through the rest of the week without snapping at anybody, and I treat you to dinner after work on Friday?" she suggested, smiling slyly. She had feelings for the young janitor/engineer for a while now, it was the reason behind her teasing, and she figured a little motivation for Wally to get through the week would help him feel better, and give her a way to confess. A win-win situation if you will. Wally looked over to her quickly, blush dusting his cheeks.
"A-Are you serious?!" he asked, clearly shocked and elated by the idea of dinner with the timeless beauty in front of him. She giggled and nodded, amused by Wally's childish behavior.
"Alright! It's a date then! I can keep my temper in check until Friday for sure!" Wally boasted, a big smile on his face. The woman blushed lightly at his wording, but decided not to comment on it. She stood up from the table and dusted off her skirt.
"Break's over Wally, I have to get going. See you after work," she stated, starting to walk off.
"Hold on! I have something for ya first!" he called after her, causing the young woman to spin around and bat her eyes in confusion. Wally smiled and gently kissed her cheek before clocking back in and waving to her as he walked off.
"See ya Friday!" he called out before turning the corner, leaving a, for once, flustered and brightly blushing woman behind, trying to comprehend what just happened.
Friday could not come soon enough.
