Work, money, a life are all the things we get when we have a job. We wake up every morning as early as 5:00 and go out in the cold dark mornings to work for a living. Me, I work at the small clothes store in our small little town. Not saying the pay is great but im not saying being a manager doesnt have its perks. The bell above the door chimes as I walk into the rather huge store the next morning. "Morning Blair" I am greeted by my co-worker who is straightening up the clothes on the hangers by the register. "Morning Bells" I force a smile. Its been almost a whole 13 hours since Id spoken to my mother and I just know shes expecting an apology but shes not getting one. "Rough morning hon" I drop my things on the table in the staff room and sigh "You could say that" I head for the coffee machine and grab the mug. "It can only get better from here my love" My boss pats me on the shoulder as she heads out. I lean up against the counter as I take a breath and sip my coffee. "Blair I need some help at the register" A super heroes job is never done. I zip down my coat and hang it up I take a look in the mirror to see my messy bun, blue tank, skinny jeans, and ankle boots. "Why do I even try." The line is long like really long I guess thins is what happens when your the only clothes store withing a 30 mile radius. "Hello and welcome to Valley, how's your day going?" crickets literally crickets. I clear my throat subtle but very loudly. "And your day sir?" I stare him dead in the eyes with a sweet but deadly smile plastered on my face. He looks at me, a green eyed, brown haired god is staring back at me I immediately feel my face flush. "Oh my apologies I didn't hear you there." His smile could kill a whole army. "Its doing okay actually i just had a pretty bad phone call but its all good" we laugh "That's good to know" I smile like I haven't smiled in years. I smiled the way Tyler always made me smile. I snap back to reality a bit to fast, he noticed. "That will be $38.50 please" he smiles and leans with his elbows on the counter and inches away from my face. "We all darn" he looks down and then back up his green eyes are deadly I see a glimpse of gold flicker in his eyes and i almost faint. "I believe I left my wallet at home today" He smiles still inches away from my face. I laugh and look down. "Well I guess your gonna have to ask for a job here because i don't think my boss would be happy." We got jokes. He laughs. Wow his laugh is absolutely ageless. "I'm Luke" He extends his hand out, I grab it. "Blair" he looks at me, not just looks at me but LOOKS at me. "Do I know you? have we met before? because i'm sure id remember such a beautiful person." He looks serious for once. "No I don't think so" he smiles and looks at me with the cutest specks in his eyes "Well that sucks, Id actually really like to."
