March Story
Standing silently at a corner, she observed the people passing by looking for that one person she longed to see. The door swung open and in came that one person. A smile spread across her face and she had her eyes fixed on him. The crowd slowly parted and allowed him to pass. But something was different today, he was not heading over to where his friends are but instead he is walking towards....her.
An alarm went off and she rolled right off the bed resulting in her landing onto the hard tile floor.Groaning, she sat up and slammed her alarm off. Her dreams are getting wilder with every passing day. Shaking her head to get rid of that wild dream she then stood up and stretched. Turning to look at the calendar only did she realise that today was career day.
Fearing the worst that all the good jobs would be taken she quickly ran into the bathroom and got ready for school. Running down the stairs she almost tripped twice but managed to gain her balance before she rolled all the way down. She ran into the living room and pass her mother before grabbing her backpack off the chair and ran back towards the door.
"Felicity, you have not eaten your breakfast!" screamed her mother.
Ignoring that, she ran right out the door and got onto her bike. Cycling as fast as she could she reached in fifteen minutes, half of the usual time she took to get to school. Sighing a sigh of relief she parked her bike and walked towards the office. Upon reaching the office she saw her best friend Gwen standing in line behind two of her classmates waiting to get their job slips.
"Morning Gwen"
"Morning, you are early today"
"I do not want to get some stupid job like I got last year just because I got here later then everybody else"
Before Gwen could reply the office clerk shoved a manila folder in her face and shooed her out. Shrugging it off, Felicity accepted the folder and walked out to join her friend.
"So,what job did you get?"
"Daycare centre helper! This is so not fair Felicity! I came here early and I got this crappy job"
"Well, the clerk must have mixed up the good pile with the bad pile"
Opening her folder she pulled out the documents and scanned through it's contents. Her face dropped and she stuffed all the papers back into the folder.
"What's wrong? What did you get?"
"Assistant Janitor!!! I so did not come here early for this"
Stomping her foot like a five year old she threw her folder onto the ground. Sulking she stood there and pouted while Gwen starred at her in disbelief.
"Looks like we got the same crappy job"
Came a voice from behind Felicity. Turning around her eyes widen in disbelief. In front of her stood a medium built guy with brownish hair and doe like eyes. Regaining her composure she quickly bent down and retrieved her folder. Unable to speak she just nodded at him and ran off towards the Janitor room. Swinging the door right open she then slammed it back shut.
"So,you are going to be my assistant?"
"Well yeah, I mean yes, Mr Matthews"
The door then swung open and hit Felicity in the back causing her to fall over. She was about to curse when a hand was extended out to her. Looking up her eyes met with a pair of doe like baby blue eyes.
"Sorry, I didn't know you were standing behind the door"
"Oh,it's okay. I mean, I should not be standing behind the door. It's not your fault"
"I hope you did not break any of her bones Chris, or you would have to do all the job I have prepared for the both of you"
"I'm fine!"
Mr Matthews then pulled out two mops and a bucket. He pushed the items into their hands and ordered them to go clean up the hall. Without another word, they then headed towards the hall....unwillingly. Both of them set to work quietly. Felicity was mopping the front of the hall while Chris covered the back. Half an hour later Felicity was about to go inform Mr Matthews they were done but was stopped by Chris.
"You are not planning to go tell Mr Matthews that we are done,are you?"
"Well yeah"
"I suggest you do that half an hour later so we could at least get half an hour time off"
"Oh okay"
Walking over to the stage she then sat there and pulled out her ipod. Halfway into Taylor Swift's Love Story, someone pulled out one of her earphones. Turning to her right she frowned at Chris and he just smiled back at her. Sighing, she turned up the volume.
"Hey, I have a question for you"
"What is it?" asked Felicity confused.
"Do you like me?"
Getting nervous, her palms got sweaty and she started to stammer. Should she tell him the truth or should she lie to him? In the end she decided to act dumb.
"What do you mean?"
"Come on Felicity, I'm sure you know what I mean"
"Well I don't"
"Fine, let me rephrase it then. Do you have a crush on me or something along that line?"
"Well....no, i mean yes...i mean no....YES!"
"I knew it"
"WHAT???"
"I knew you had a crush on me"
"And ?"
"Sorry Felicity, but you just aren't my type. Anyways, we're both from a different level in the society"
Those words hit her like a ton of bricks. Holding back her tears she stood up and smiled at him before running right out of the room and into the ladies. Hiding in the last cubicle she let her tears run free.How could he be so heartless? How could he be so mean? He was suppose to be perfect. With good looks and an even better personality.
But, whatever happened back there had obviously proved that wrong.
That night, she stood at the balcony starring out at the vast sky. She stood there, thinking of how stupid she was to think that they were possible. Isn't it obvious that with those good looks of his that he would be stuck up? Sighing, she went back into her room and closed the door to the balcony. Feeling exhausted after the long day she crawled into bed and fell into a deep sleep. Giving up hope on him and getting ready for a brand new day....tomorrow.
