•Amelia's Point Of View;•

I woke up with the sound of my bob the builder alarm waking me up. After we'd been to the beach last night, Luke dropped me home. Both my mum and dad were out at work today and surprisingly, I start my new job at Starbucks this afternoon.

I got out of bed and put my hair into a messy bun on the top of my head. I then removed the make-up I had left on last night and checked my phone. I have a message.

From: Luke xx

Hey, I'm taking you out tonight x

I sighed before wiping my eyes and replying.

To: Luke xx

What? Like on a date? x

Pressing send, I went to the bathroom to brush my teeth. It didn't take long until my phone buzzed again though.

From: Luke xx

Do you want it to be a date? x

To: Luke xx

Yes;) x

From: Luke xx

Then it's a date;) I'll pick you up at 7 x

I laughed slightly before wiping my mouth, and replying.

To: Luke xx

Okay x

I shut off my phone and make my way downstairs to get breakfast. I grab some bread and put it under the grill, then putting the kettle on. It's currently 10 o'clock and I start my shift at 12, which means 5 hours serving customers all day.

I slump on the sofa and flicker through the t.v channels. I stop on Jeremy Kyle, 'My boyfriend of 2 years cheated.' Brilliant, just what you want plastered over the television. Surely, if you know your boyfriend's cheated, why come on a show?

A smell of burning hit my nose and I turned my head to see smoke, bellowing from the grill. Oh, my toast. I run to the grill, making sure to crack my knee on the corner of the table as well. So, while I'm trying to attend to my burnt toast, I can't feel my knee either.

After giving up, I put my toast in the bin and put a frozen pack of peas on my now throbbing knee.

I then got out a small pizza and decided to try that and put it into the oven. I should never be trusted.. with anything. And when I say 'anything' I mean, anything. I've burnt pasta before.

Half an hour later, my ham and mushroom pizza was done and I was now being very careful, cutting it up.

I achieved cutting up the pizza and then put it onto a plate and walked back over to the sofa to continue to watch Jeremy Kyle.

I put down my tongs and turned them off. I just finished waving my hair for work. It was currently 11:43 so I got on my black vans and made my way downstairs with my phone. I made sure all the lights were turned off before going outside and getting into my black Mini Cooper.

It was about a 10 minute drive to work, so I parked my car and went in. The door bell chimed above my head as I walked through the door.

I noticed a women, in her 50's maybe? Cleaning the counter, according to her name tag, she was called Janet. She looked up and smiled at me as I walked towards her.

"Hi, I'm Amelia. I start my new job here today?" I informed her.

"Oh yes. Come through to the back dear, we have your apron for you." She gave me a warm smile.

I followed her through to the back where I met two other ladies, about the same age as her. One was called Louise and the other was Seb. They were truly two of the nicest people I've met.

I got my baby pink apron on and started work almost immediately.

The clock turned 5:00 and my shift was finally over. It didn't feel like 5 hours here, time flew by. Today I was just serving, but a few more shifts and I can start to make the bevarages.

I took off my apron and hung it on the hook in the staff room.

"Bye, guys! I'll see you tomorrow." I said to Seb, Louise and Janet.

They all said goodbye and I made my way back to my Mini that was sat in the car park by itself. I then plugged myself in and reversed out so I could make my way home.

As soon as I got home, I got an apple before rushing upstairs to get reading for tonights date with Luke.
