I groan as the sound of two loud women talking excitedly fills my ears, and I'm pulled out of my thoughts as I stare ahead, where my mom and her best friend were sitting in the car, gossiping their life away.
I look again towards the window, where countless houses and shops seemed to pass away. I was dreading arriving at our destination, knowing exactly what I'll have to do.
I turn around to look at the annoyingly rich and handsome guy sitting next to me, James. To say that I hate him was an understatement, he's the only guy who REFUSED to even be friends with me, and that hurt my pride more than I'd like to admit, being the kind of girl that wants to be friends with everybody.
He mostly just ignores me now, and I wonder if he mistook me for one of his countless other fangirls.
I sigh and look away again, noticing my work place appear and the car slowly starting to slow down.
"Are you sure I can't convince you to come with us dear?" Mrs. Reynolds says sweetly.
James mother was a sweetheart, a complete opposite from her annoying ass edgy ass son. They were planning to go the aquarium, but I had work to do if I wanted to save money to buy BTS merch.
"No, thank you very much Mrs. Reynolds, but I would rather not get fired." I smile politely at her.
"Oh I'm pretty sure I can convince him to let you go." She wasn't lying, she owned most of the stores here so she could if she wanted to. Except the thought of having to spend the rest of the evening with James and the endless gossiping of two middle-aged women didn't seem very appealing to me.
"It's fine, thank you for offering tho." Before I could get out of the car, I'm surprised by a deep voice suddenly saying "Can you drop me off too?" James says, looking straight at me.
We all gasped.
Even his mother's eyes seemed to widen at her son's question.
"O-of course if that's what you want. But..may I ask why?" She stutters, still shocked.
"Because I want to see Elena's work place."
First of all, what the fuck.
Second of all, WHAT THE FUCK.
Third of all, since when was James interested in anything I ever did? I'm surprised he even knows my NAME.
I rapidly walk out of the car, with James following me, and I can guess by his aura that he's already bored, like he always is.
I greet the employees in my work place, including Rebecca, who was kind of my work buddy. She was a sweetheart but we never meet outside of work unless it was an emergency.
I walk into the locker room to change into my waitress uniform, which consisted of a skirt that reached my knees, and a simple white top, tucked neatly into the pink skirt.
Then right after, I get to work, taking orders and complimenting customers hoping for a tip.
The entire time, I felt James eyes linger on me while sipping on his coffee which made me extremly weirded out by his behavior.
I make my way towards his table confidently while smirking. "I didn't know that I was THAT beautiful to the point that you wouldn't be able to stop staring at me."
He looks at me, shocked, and then laughes loudly, making me raise an eyebrow.
"I was looking at you because the entire time there was a food stain on your mouth." He smirks triumphly and I gasp in horror, taking out my pocket mirror and realizing that I really did have a stain.
