"Monday mornings are the worst." Emmie muttered to herself laying in bed waiting for her alarm to go off again.
She pull her strength to get out of bed at 7am and get ready for work. Today she felt like wearing a dress. Finally feeling comfortable and confident enough in her new environment to wear a dress to work and announce to the office that she is full of creativity and color. She pulled the red and black swing dress and her favorite pair of heels from the closet. Laying them on her unmade bed and stripping as she walk into the bathroom. Letting her clothes fall where they will. Emmie phone rang as soon as she turned on the water getting distracted and not turning on the cold water she scolded herself. Dripping on the floor and cursing like a sailor, she hurried to retrieve her phone from the sink. Simon! Her heart jumped." Hello?",she said walking over turning off the water assuming she would be on the phone for a while.
"Hey, I hope I didn't wake you? You sound like you just woke up." He said as you could hear that he was in his car driving somewhere.
She replied grabbing a towel from off the rack and wrapping it around herself." No I woke up a little while ago. So you're not bothering me. You know how when you first get up and it doesn't matter how long ago it was you woke up your first words always has that morning voice. The gravelly sounding voice that makes guys sound hotter and girl sound like guys."
He chuckled a little,"Yeah I know what you mean but I like you morning voice it sounds cute. But anyway what are you up to?"
She giggled a little at his comment and answered him," Presently just scolding myself in the shower. I hate new shower. I wish I bring my old one here it would make things so much easier. Sorry I'm rambling I'm like this in the morning and the evening. I guess I might be like this all the time." She said rubbing her hand against her face in embarrassment.
"No it's cool. You aren't rambling and if you are it's cute. Besides you talking is helping me out the guy beside me thinks I'm crazy talking to myself in here or something. Were stuck in traffic and he isn't even trying to hide he's watching me. Just like mind your own fricking business." He said angry looking at the guy but he seemed unfazed.
Emmie couldn't help but laugh." Frinking?" She said mockingly.
"I didn't know how you felt about cursing." He said innocently.
She smiled to herself," Awe that's so cute."
He smiled and laughed,"How is that cute?"
"It just is. I don't need a reason if you don't." She pointed out.
"When have I not given a reason?" He asked defending his question.
"Every time I asked!" She said feeling like she was going to win.
"You never asked that's why you didn't get a reason. If you had asked I would have given a reason." He said trying to flirt innocently by baiting her into asking.
"Uh huh well let's just move on. So why did you call me anyways?" She said sensing she was a bit defeated.
"Just wanted to hear your voice and I'm doing a run for work. I always was get lonely on these trip."he said.
She smiled and laughed a little,"Oh I'm flattered, but don't you have a girlfriend or someone else who you would rather talk to?"
He chuckled hearing her question and hoping she meant something by it." Nope I'm very single just me and my dog. And all the people I like to talk to, I can talk to anytime and do. Well except you who I've only talked to a few times but can't stop thinking about you. Your voice and your smile, how you blush when you're nervous, your fave turns bright red I love it."
"You've never seen me blush or smile. You don't know if I'm pretty or not." She stated.
He paused for a moment than answered," Well I guess that's true, but it's just technically stuff because I know you're beautiful in my mind. You have light brown hair and your kind a short and your super goofy. Sorry am I boring? You're being quiet over there am I worried about weirding you out. I can be awkward sometimes and say weird stuff. Like right now I want to ask you out on a date but I feel like you would say no because I'm putting off those creepy serial killer vibes but if I did ask just know that I couldn't be because serial killers have charm and are smooth and obviously I am not."
There was a silence and then she said,"Ok. Why don't you ask me then?"
"Really?!" He said shocked at her answer. She muttered uh huh on the other end." Emmie, will you go out with me?"
There was a silence and as her words began to form he said," I know this is a bad time but my boss is calling. I have to let you go I'll call you tonight. Bye." And he hung up the phone. She was left there in her bathroom naked with this decision that may cost her only friend or maybe gain a boyfriend.
