annie's pov

it was a thursday night, kenzie and lauren were helping me clean the bakery for closing. "ugh i'm so exhausted! i'm ready to collapse in bed." lauren complained.

"same girl, same. i've been working my butt off all day." kenzie yawned; resting her head on the broom. "we're almost done anyway." i said.

then we heard the bell, the one that hangs on the door letting you know someone exited or entered. "sorry we're closed." i said not turning around. "oh, um i actually had a question." the guy said. i finally turned around and saw that guy who i served a week ago.

what's his name... oscar? no... owen! "oh, aren't you owen?" i asked. he grinned and nodded. "yep. that's me! i saw your help wanted sign, and i was interested. is now not the best time?" he asked.

i looked at kenzie and lauren who had grins on their faces. "no, nows the perfect time! annie can interview you. we'll be upstairs." kenzie pushed lauren and herself into the kitchen.

i laughed and looked back at owen. i gestured him to sit. we were now sitting across from each other. he was... actually kinda cute. "so owen, tell me about yourself." i said.

"well, my full name is owen bodnar, i moved here from washington, i live by myself in a nearby apartment and i love surfing." he smiled. he had braces on which made him look cuter.

i asked him a few more boring questions. "well owen, you got the job! come see me here tomorrow." i smiled. "really? thank you!" he gave me an unexpected hug which i gladly returned. once he left i had a smile appear on my face.

as i turn around to go upstairs, i see hayden leaning on the doorframe with a confused look. "how long have you been standing there?" i ask him with my arms crossed.

"um.. just came down. who was that?" he asked walking towards me. "owen bodnar. he's going to be working here now." i grinned. "what?!" hayden exclaimed.

"annie, you can't just hire anyone! you're dad gave this to you in his origins." hayden said. "hayden, calm down. he's not going to be here for that long or a full time job. plus, why do you care so much?" i asked annoyed.

hayden looked down and then back up. "it doesn't matter." he mumbled. he turned around to walk away but i stopped him. "yes hayden, it does matter. now tell me, why?" i ask.

hayden turns around and looks me dead in the eye. "maybe because annie you're the first person i've cared about since my dad! and you know i'm scared of love." he turned around and walked away.

love?

does he love me? is that why? was he jealous? i quickly rush up the stairs and knock on hayden's door. "hayden summerall! open up this door! i know your in there!" i kept knocking. "i won't leave!" i yelled again.

i rested my weight against his door. i'm seriously not leaving until i get answers. he'll have to open up sooner or later.

five minutes have passed. before i knew it, the door opened and i fell in. and not just on the floor, i fell on top of hayden.

he had his arms around me and mine were on his chest. our faces were inches apart. i quickly pull myself off him. he gets up and his cheeks turn red. mine do too.

"um, sorry." i said. "it's fine. but, why did you need? i was in the shower." he said. then i had realized he had no shirt on (a/n: you're welcome jess)

hm. i didn't realize before he had abs. i blushed and looked at his eyes. ugh he's such a turn on. "i need you to explain your self. what do you mean you're afraid of love? and do you actually like me?" i asked. hayden sighed.

"yes julianna, i did the one thing i wasn't suppose to do. and that was liking you! your so kind to me unlike anyone else. everyone just wants me to be more open and expressive and you- you've helped me when i pushed you away. you had faith in me annie." hayden said.

he really does like me.

"oh, and by like i mean in a friendly way."

so he doesn't like me.

oddly, that made me quite sad. i felt as if my heart dropped. "oh. well, i'm gonna head to bed. night hayden." i said without giving him time to respond. i quickly walk out of his bedroom and into mine.

do i like hayden summerall?
