(Majority of this book is in Lucy's POV)
"Shit!" I'm running late for work, yet again.
My husband has already left and my phone is completely dead so my alarm didn't go off.
What makes this worse is that, last night me and a couple of my girlfriends went out for a drink and a catch up but it ended up being more than 'a' drink, so I have the worst hangover ever and my prescribed pain killers aren't working!
As I'm driving to work, I'm praying my boss doesn't get pissed at me for being late. This is the third time I've been late this week.
As soon as I walk in the doors to our office, my boss is right by the reception desk.
"Do you know what time it is Lucy? You're almost an hour late! And this is not the first time you've been late this week!" Rick says giving me a cold stare.
"Rick, I'm sorry I can expla-"
"Save it!" He says cutting me off.
"Oh and for your information you missed the meeting with Tom Hartland, the producer of The Heartless" He says while walking away.
Great what an ass, he is the number one producer in the country and I blew it! How am I going to be a producer when I can't even get to work on time? All this thinking and disappointment is making my head throb.
I walk into my office and feel like I'm about to pass out, it's a bloody sauna in here! Doesn't anyone have the decency to open my window when they get to work, knowing it's the middle of July? and it is one of the hottest summers we've had in the past 3 years.
I open my windows and turn on my little desk fan which makes my office feel a hundred times better, turning on the computer and looking at the time it reads "11:15am July 15th" how long was I in the lobby for? Almost half an hour.
A little note pops up on the screen saying "Meeting with Lauren Perry today about Revival film" Revival? Who's making that movie? Oh that's right Jerry, and he wants me to be co producer, how the hell is that going to work when I'm late all the time?
Plugging my phone into the charger, it slowly turns on showing me that I have an appointment with my chiropractor today at 2:00pm. It also has a notice saying "Your 7th anniversary today"
"oh my gosh, I can't believe I forgot! What kind of wife am I?"
I also have a message from David
"Made reservations at The Kings Hotel for dinner tonight, 7pm. Love you honey and Happy Anniversary! xoxo"
I love him so much, he's just so considerate and caring. I can't wait for tonight but right now I have work to think about.
***
"Hey Jerry, what would you want for an anniversary present from your wife?" I ask him waiting anxiously.
"Hmmm, I don't know maybe some nice cologne, a Lamborghini and a gift card for Suits for Men. You forgot it was your anniversary today didn't you?" He replies
"Yes, and I don't know what to get David. But I am not getting him a Lamborghini!" I say with a laugh
"But you're other two suggestions work great" Jerry just smiles and says
"You know the Lamborghini was a joke right? No man expects that for an anniversary present."
"Yes I know that" I say rather seriously
"Anyway good luck with your present hunting Lucy." He says as he walks away.
"Thanks"
Now it's time for me to go to the chiropractor.
