"Gosh,"

I wake up to my annoying alarm clock. I sit up, hitting it off my night stand and getting up

I get dressed, today is my first day of work, at CatCo. I do my hair into a high ponytail and do my makeup.

I walk out.

"Good morning, Cass," My brother, Jeremy says. I laugh and reply. "Morning Jere,"

"First Day at CatCo, huh?" He asks, smiling like an idiot. "Yeah," I reply, eating some of the breakfast Jess, his wife, had made.

"Well, you better get going," He says, pointing at the clock. I was late.

"Dammit," I curse, "I'll be back at five, tell Cooper I love him," I say and kiss Jeremy's cheek while grabbing my bag and rushing out the door.

I get to CatCo and grab a Coffee on the way up. The elevator doors open and I rush
out. I make my way to my new desk and settle down in it.

"I-I Contribute," I hear behind me.

I turn around.

"Uh, I was wondering if you maybe wanna, I don't know, go see a movie tonight?" A boy stutters out. I silently laugh.

"I can't. I'm sorry," The girl replies.

"I have a date," She continues.
"Date, really?" The boy stutter again. "That's great, fun, dating is fun," I could hear the heartbreak in his voice.

"Who is that with?"

"It's an online date, Says we're eighty-two percent compatible, so, should be good,"
The girl replies.

"You know you can't quantify emotions based on an algorithm?" The boy strikes back. I laugh silently once again.

"Winn, you're IT, isn't your whole life based on algorithms?"

"Yes, so if there was an algorithm for love, I think that I would know about it," Winn, I think, said.

"It's just like you're gunna know when it hits you, Kara,"

"It'll be like POW," He says, playfully hitting her shoulder.

I laugh once again.

"She's here," Kara says, looking towards the elevator. I furrow my eyebrows.

"How do you do that?"

I then see the elevator open and a lady with blonde hair comes out. Must be my boss, Cat Grant.

"The only reason I bought this building was because it had a private elevator. That way, I don't have to get soaked in cheap cologne every morning, getting to my office," The lady complained.

"Find out who used it, have them reprimanded, or bathed. I don't care which," She continued, walking into her office with Kara following behind her.

I glance back at Winn.

"Hey, nice conversation," I say, laughing silently again. He smiles awkwardly.

"Yeah, once again, rejected," He said, turning away from his game on the computer.

"I'm Cassidy, but please, call me Cassie, or Cass," I say, standing up and walking towards his desk.

"Winn, Winn Schott," He says, shaking my hand. "Jr." He continued. I laugh and look back at Kara and Cat, talking away in her office.

"I've never seen you around, you new here?" He asks, I nod.

After talking with Winn for awhile about random things, Kara walks out and looks at us.

"Who's this?"

"I'm Cassidy," I say.

"I'm Kara, and Ms. Grant wants you," She replies, patting my back.
"Good Luck,"

I sigh, walking towards Cat's office.

I walk in. "You wanted me?" I ask. "Hello Cassidy, is it? I was told your brother signed you up for this job?" She asks. I nod.

"Welcome to the job, Casey," She says, pronouncing my name wrong.

She hands me my ID and other things I need for my job.

I thank her and she excuses me and I make my way to my desk to put all my stuff down and make my way to Winn and Kara.

"This is gunna be a long week," I say, laughing.
