The job

"Ever since nicks demise.  said jerrica. she looked over at tom "we don't have anyone that is reliable to do what he did".

Tom smiled and glanced back..

so you picked me said tom . he shrugged his shoulders and reached over toward his car. the nice shining sedan behind him he so far hated so much. why did Han pick this car, well at least he could drive so ef it.

Han picked u. according to your brother you were a pizza guy over in Chicago and you got your deliveries there fast. not much to what i have planned but it is something and we can train you the rest of the way". she brushed a hand through her blonde hair he saw her green eyes shine in the sunlight and he followed her gesture toward the white house behind her. he went to the front as she opened the door the scent of new was everywhere. nice front room area that looked like it as in some model house building magazine.

so what do you think?, my parents have spent a great deal of time. she spoke. he was awe inspired as he looked around at a nice grey couch in the front and an upstairs behind the couch that wrapped around. to a left wall then behind another wall to the right. a nice house indeed.

"shoes there i suppose". he asked. she gestured toward the door where a pile of shoes were in a neat arrangement.

"just there please", she said he slipped them off quickly and followed behind down a narrow hall in the middle and to the right where a great nice brown wood counter was with a black marble top  and a nice kitchen all the way around from left on his left he saw a living room and to the right counters went all the way around with dark wood and around the back to the fridge and another door which he knew was probably the garage.

"What is it exactly I'll be doing and how much do you guys pay for it"? He looked at her as she spoke.

"Just normal shipment guarding". Said Jerrica. She had grabbed a glass of water and was drinking. "Mm if your uncomfortable I get it, we can see about someone else, you will need a gun we pay 11 an hour. Leo is flexible with starters".

"That's great", said Tom. He looked around.

"So," she spoke she sat down at the counter on a barstool and he went forward and stood next to the counter. "i need a driver tonight as a matter of fact i have someone out in the city that has been waiting for a pick up for the past two days. this is his address," she handed him a note with a address. "I know it's not much to go on  but i am not sure i want to tell you all about the job right now,".

"Solid, where am i driving to"? asked Tom. he looked over at her into her eyes.

she smiled and said, "he will let you know", she stood up. "so whats this I hear about you being some big football star".

"I played on the bay everyday. Han makes it out to be some amazing school thing it was just a little extra cash". said Tom smiling. "no commitment no big deal, Bets mostly",

"but still," he showed me some pictures especially she pulled out her phone and showed him a picture of him catching a football on the beach. he had his shirt off and was a bit muscular. his chest had always been a bit more defined even though he was shorter. when he was really little and throughout his life he did gymnastics, he did sports in middle school and high school.

"that was a good picture of me." said Tom he smiled and looked over at jerrica who moved toward him.

"it was", she spoke, so what do you think"? She moved around him to come face to face with him.

He smiled.

"So up to the pitch and you gave a amazing pitch right there, I mean for real I do this job then what"?

she moved toward him. "You can have what you want, a better vehicle, she raised her hand and moved her finger tips.
"money, some drivers get nice places in town, Leo has deals with local real estate".

she moved toward a table in her living room. a grey couch sat on the right and in the center a nice glass table on the left the table she was going to where her tv was on top of and games in the sides. she opened up a secret latch on the side of the black small coffee table entertainment center. she grabbed out a 9mm.

"your gonna need this". she spoke,"whatever happens remember who's side your on. Is there anything else you need"?

"do i have room for career advancement"? he tried handing it back she shook her head. he nervously smiled. she grabbed his shirt and moved toward him. He could feel her breath and smell her perfume.

"that is yet to be seen. She pushed him back.
"now leave me babe i got to go take care of some stuff".

she walked to the left in front of the kitchen out the glass back door.

'damn it', he thought. he was blushing, he felt is face burning. he sighed and looked around her kitchen,. 'this was a nice place. I wish i had money for this', he saw the way the cabinets were. the wood finished to be smooth and the nice black countertops. the stainless steel on the fridge probably a couple thousand alone.  shimmering amazing. he walked to the front door and got his shoes on.
