The Werewolf Hunting Cupcake Maker

Meeting Ashley.1

Bethany

As I got to the shop, I thought, that it wasn't a very wise idea to move to LA. It's so hot here, well I did move here from Michigan. Any who, I parked my white Jeep Wrangler at the shop's parking lot. I unlocked the door to the shop. It was finished, but I have a lot of cleaning to do. The white counters, pastel pink, glittery floors, windows, white tables & chairs, and the kitchen need to be wiped. So, I put my stuff down and start cleaning. I started by wiping down the counters and cabinets. Then, to wiping the chairs and tables. I then headed to the kitchen and wiped the stain steel surfaces, like the stove, sink, and counters, and also swept and mopped the kitchen floor. I checked my cell phone and realized it was already noon, I had been in the shop for 2 hours. I was hungry as if on cue my stomach growled.

I decided to walk to the McDonald's across the street. I was waiting in line behind a brunette girl. She turned around and smiled, I returned the gesture. "Hey, you new around here?" She asked.
"Yeah, I am" I replied. "I'm Ashley, aren't you the one who's opening up the cupcake shop?" Ashley asked. "Yes, I am, I'm Bethany" I said.
"That's cool, you don't have to call me Ashley, you can call me whatever you want by the way." Ashley told me. "You can call me whatever you want, too." I said. She ordered her food and waited for me. I ordered also, and they gave me my pop. We sat down to wait for our orders. We started talking, asking each other questions. I told her as much as I could. She was surprised when I told her I had finished high school and college last year. They called our order numbers and we went to get them. I now knew she had an older brother, she was born here, she was also 17 years, she dances,and she attends a private school, which was founded by her family. We sat back down and started eating. "Beth, I think you're my new best friend." Ash said genuinely. "I think so, too" I said sincerely. "I feel like we've known each other since little kids" she said. I felt that connection, too. "Like I could tell you anything" I said as sincerely as I've been to her. "Yeah" She said. We finished eating, while conversing about our favorite bands. "Want to go to my shop?" I asked Ash. "Yeah, sure" she said stuffing her last fry in her mouth. We threw our garbage and walked out McDonald's. We got to my shop, I unlocked it and we walked in. "This place is cute, Beth" Ashley said smiling. "Thank you, Ash" I said. " But I still have cleaning and people to hire" I said starting to stress about it. "Hey, can I work here?, I don't have a job" She said. "Will you do that?" I asked. "Yeah, why not, I have nothing better to do, nowadays" Ash told me. I hugged her and said a muffled "thank you." "I just need another cashier and 5 helpers" I said. "Maybe my brother can be a helper" she offered. "You think he'll want to?" I asked. "Let me give him a call" She said. I nodded. I grabbed the Windex and got to cleaning the windows from inside. I heard Ashley telling her brother. "Beth, what do the helpers do?" Ash hollered. "They help me decorate, bake, and build cakes with the cupcakes." I explained. She nodded and told him what I said. I checked my phone and saw that it was 2:25 pm. "He agreed and he'll come by tomorrow, well I got to go, see ya tomorrow" Ash said giving me a side-hug. "I'm leaving, too" I said. I grabbed my stuff and when we were both out the front door, I locked it. Ashley waved and walked to the direction of McDonald's, I waved back and got into my car.
