The Bet

Chapter 7- The ex

CARLY GRASLAND POV

One week later

Its been a whole week and he hasnt tried anything, im kinda upset in a way. Everytime I get home I dream of the kiss we shared. Im not going to lie I did love it and so many nights I laid awake thinking is it ever going to happen again.

Stan and Latina is getting really close these past few days. Now both guys sit with us at lunch, Its amazing that they worked in the same office for years but never met. When I asked her what was going on with them two she would just say their friends and keep on to what she was doing.

I have been working nights at the diner part time only like once a night, im really starting to like both jobs. 

I'm now done filing all the papers in order by last name. When I was done I looked around and everything was in its place, happy at my work I looked around to see what to do next.

"If your wondering what to do next then you can start by running these files to Stans office".

I took the files and started towards Stans office. When I reached the door I can hear talking on the other side.

"I cant believe you havnt told her yet its been a week Latina". I over heard Stan say,

"I Know that Stan its just I want to make sure we are real before we just go out telling people we are dating".

"I know but shes your friend".

She ketp that they was dating away from me, apart of me was hurt but being as im not suppose to be listing I had to play it off.

I knocked on the door.

"Please come in." I hear Stan yell

"Here you go Mr Parsely your files." 

I couldnt even look at her right now, but she made it hard by talking.

"Hey"

Just hey really Tina

"Hey whats up"

"Nothing much I just came to umm say hey to Stan"

She walked out and I just shook my head.

"So you heard huh."

"What you mean"

"I saw your feet at the door I know you heard." He put the files I handed him on his desk and started fliping threw them, I couldnt say nothing so I just bit my lip. "Its ok I wanted her to tell you sooner then later but happy you now know."

"Yes but can you not tell her I do know I want it to come from her."

"Alright thats fine, are you ready for the big date.?" He cocked his head to the side and looked up at me.

"I really forgot about the bet but yes ready to get it over with".

"Well I can tell you Travis is really a great guy he just...--"

"Controlling, a jerk, money hungry...--"

" No I was going to say he just got a big ego" he laughed

"oh right" i laughed at myself "sorry"

"Dont say sorry your right about some of that stuff"

I nodded and headed towards Mr Reeds office. When I entered I noticed a lady already there. 

"So what you say dinner tonight". she purred at Mr Reed rubbing his chest.

"No Linda I told you I have plans tonight"

"Well postpone them I havnt seen you in almost two weeks". She huffed

I stood at the door watching the two.

Travis looked up and saw me and stood up from his chair.

"Ah Miss Grasland may you please walk Miss Strong out please." 

"No need I was just leaving." 

She walked out the door, I looked towards Travis waiting on him to talk.

"My ex."

"I know who she is."

"You do?"

"Yes thats Linda Strong the womens underwear model I love her new designs."

I couldnt believe Travis went out with THE linda strong. 

"Anything else you need?"

"Yes I need you to gohead and head home to get ready for our date." 

I nodded and grabbed my things and left.
