*beep* *beep* *beep*
i sigh as my alarm goes off, already dreading today. quickly hitting snooze, not caring if im late to this stupid job I roll over. after another 10 minutes go by, me almost falling asleep yet again, my alarm goes off again. "are you fucking kidding me?" i curse to myself. rolling out of the bed, I turn off the obnoxiously loud alarm ringing in my ear and walk over to the bathroom before looking in the mirror. hair disheveled, makeup all over my face from being too lazy to take it off last night. this is what my life has come to. I think to myself before quickly undressing myself and getting into the shower.
after a very hot, very quick shower, I wrapped my towel around me before walking downstairs to get my uniform from the dryer. whilst walking, I hear two people conversing in the kitchen. without a care in the world, I walk in there to see my best friend, sky, and a very handsome guy eating pancakes. i clear my throat for her to notice me, and once she looks over her eyes widen.
"really hayley?" she asks, her eyes rolling to the back of her head. the guy just stood there awkwardly. i stifle a laugh before walking over to kiss her on the cheek.
"goodmorning to you too sunshine." I say jokingly as I take a bite off her plate. "sky, where are your manners? arent you going to introduce us?" I ask with a smirk, extending my hand out to the mystery guy. "im hayley, sky's roommate and very very best friend. and you are?" i ask confidently.
the guy clears his throat, obviously thrown off by my choice of clothing, or lack there of. "JP, but you can call me rook. im-" he clears his throat again," a friend of sky's." he says shaking my hand. I chuckle, looking at him. he was cute, she did good.
"well, nice to meet you rook." I smile, before looking over at the clock. 10:43 "FUCK!" I exclaim before looking at sky. "i am very very late for work. sky, you did good. he's a cutie." I wink at her, her face visibly getting flustered. I laugh, a real laugh. I loved embarrassing my best friend.
quickly walking into the laundry room to get my work clothes, I run up the stairs and go back into my room. getting dressed in an impressive 2 minutes, I walk over to my vanity. looking at myself i sigh before throwing my dark brown hair up into a messy bun, pulling out my little baby hairs to frame my face. i quickly apply some eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara before slipping on my shoes, running back downstairs.
walking out the door and to my jeep, I see sky saying bye to rook. they're smiling at each other and right before he gets into his uber, he kisses her. I whistle at my best friend, her flipping me off whilst still kissing her man. getting into my jeep, I turn it on and look at the clock to see im running 10 minutes late. rolling my eyes, I connect my Bluetooth to my car, and I by lil skies comes on. backing out of my driveway, I speed off to the worst job in this entire world.
pulling up to starbucks, I quickly text sky before getting out of my car.
you do realize he was a stranger and could have murdered you right? I text, laughing as if I don't do the same thing. almost immediately I got a text back.
same shit you do, except instead of meeting him drunkenly at a club I met him sober at work.😜
I roll my eyes yet again, before walking into work. clocking in, my manager is right on my heals.
"this is the 3rd time this week hayley, you cant continue being late all the time. this is a job. you need to take it seriously." he says, clearly fed up with me.
I turn around, batting my eyelashes. "I know, im so sorry mike. I was having car troubles and I don't have a manly man like you to help me with it. im sorry, it wont happen again." I say and pout my lips. he just stares for a second, taking in my features and sighs.
"its okay honey," he says, wrapping his arm around my shoulder. I gagged discretely, knowing my pouting worked on the gross 48 year old man. "next time, please call me. i'll gladly come and pick you up myself." he says with a wink. I smile and nod at him, hiding my disgust.
"will do!" I comment cheerfully, walking over to the register, and begin taking everyones orders with a fake smile on my face. I really need to get a new job, or a sugar daddy.
