05- "What do you mean?"

Bella's  POV

Today is my first day of work and I'm really excited but also nervous. I don't know how today is going to be, I really need some Adrian vibe right now!

I really miss Adrian. The last time I saw him, he was boarding the flight to Hawaii. I don't even know when I'm going to see him again, I just hope he arrives before University.

Speaking of University I can't believe I'll be in University in less than three months! I've always wanted to leave my parents house, I've always wanted to feel independent. I can't believe  that'll be happening soon!

I haven't even thought of what I want to major in or what university I want to go to, I've got to start thinking about that soon.

I took a bus to the diner, because my dad

borrowed my car since his car is at  the mechanic for repair. I looked for a seat and sat relaxing my body on the chair,  although it isn't that comfortable it's something.

The bus finally pulled up across the street,  I trekked to the other side of the road and walked straight down to the diner, I opened the door to the diner it still hasn't opened.

I walked inside to find the cleaners cleaning

It seems I'm early,  I shurgged at my thoughts.

I decided to help the cleaners, after I was done with that I waited for more people to arrive. A lot of people I have never seen before came, some as waiters and waitresses, some working in the kitchen as cooks, but one captured my attention.

The dark-brown hair, beautiful blue eyes, full pink lips, well carved eyebrows and slender figure, but that didn't stop her from  having a beautiful figure,  her large chest and big butt- I am nothing like her.

Why is she here?

She walked closer to me and smiled, this is getting creepy. Just then I realized she was smiling at the person behind me, I turned around meeting the most beautiful eyes I've ever seen, I studied his eyes and my eyes flickered to his lips,  his enticing pink lips. Stop you have Adrian, he's way hotter than him. I scolded myself, looking away from him as fast as I could.

"You're in my way" He said with a stern look on his face, what got his panties in a twist?

"Sorry" I said politely leaving 'his way'.

Who knew someone as hot as him had a truculent behavior?

I went  straight to my duty post waiting for customers to arrive, the first customer I had was a young girl named Niana. She ordered a green tea latte and I am pretty good at making it  so this should be pretty easy.

After I was done making the latte I handed it over to Niana, as she went to pay at the cash register,  which is being handled by Ashton.

A few more customers came and it was getting to the end of my shift, I checked the time it was 1:39pm and my shift ends by 2 O'clock.

"Twenty-one minutes more" I muttered under my breath.

It was almost the end of my shift, I already started gathering my bag, when someone came to order.

Screw that person.

I looked up  to see Becky,  I smiled reminiscing what happened two weeks ago, she smiled maliciously at me.

"Can I have an iced coffee, please?" She said, smiling with confidence.

"So you work here?" She asked, eyeing me with a smirk on her face.

"Here" I said, giving her the iced coffee she asked for. She took it, dropping a dollar bill on the counter.

"Keep the change" She smiled maliciously at me before leaving.

Immediately I sighted it, all the anger I've been burying in me, started digging it's way up I was instantly filled with wrath. I  wanted to cut her head off, there is no way I'm taking her money; I know what she is trying to do, she wants to make me feel inferior, I'll show her what this girl can do.

I tried to catch up with her when I remembered what happened two weeks ago, fighting her didn't gain me anything.

I tried to forget what she said and ignore her childish acts, I decided to be silent  after all she's a fool.

I went back to the counter, picked up my bag and headed out the door. I stopped surprised at the scene in front of me; Stella was trying to get Ashton's attention while Ashton just dissed her,  although he dissed her she didn't stop.

She looked like a puppy desperate for love, I laughed out loud when Ashton yelled at her annoyed by her.

They both looked at me, Stella shot me a death glare.

I blushed in embarrassment, quickly looking away.

...

"So how'd it go with the boyfriend thing?" I asked,  as I sipped my hot chocolate.

"The guy from the beach is a total jerk, can you believe her kissed another girl in front of me!" Liana said, stealing a marshmallow from my plate.

"Stop! Drop it!" I yelled

"It's just one!" She whined

"No!"I said, snatching the marshmallow from her hand.

"My house, my food and I don't get a morsel of it" She whined.

"That's what I get for being the guest," I said, washing the  plate and cup I used.

"Hmm.. How's your relationship with Adrian going?" She asked.

"Fine" I said, I miss Adrian so much I wish he didn't go, I hardly had time to talk to him.

"Hmm.. Are you sure you guys are ok?" She asked.

"What is that supposed to mean?" I asked, perplexed.

"The always being busy, never having time to talk, the last time you talked to Adrian was last week" She said.

"He's just busy," I said, trying to defend him.

"It lasted for a minute and five seconds!  The whole scenario was filled with exchanging pleasantries, no sweet talk, no good laughs," She said, I felt my heart beating fast, what is she trying to do?

"What do you mean?"

"How long are you going to keep wallowing in the fact that he'll come back some day?  Isn't it obvious? He isn't interested in you anymore!" I knew she was right but I didn't want to acknowledge it.

My heart clenched, I sat on the floor  puzzled, but he loves me?

I rubbed my cheek as I felt the hot moisture on my face, why am I crying?

I don't normally cry, even when Adrian and I have fights I don't cry.

"It's ok, I didn't mean to sound harsh, it's just annoying how you think he's still interested in you, when he tries to ignore you" Liana said, coming closer to hug me, but I pushed her away, I hate feeling like this.

I stood up and ran as fast as I could home, not caring who was looking.

I continued running,  my legs were numb and my body hurt,  I wanted to stop but I couldn't stop,  I ran until I bumped into something really hard.

I couldn't see what it was or who it was,  as the tears blurred my vision,  and I faded away as darkness overwhelmed me.

...

I slowly pried my eyes open,  as I  stared  at the unfamiliar room.

It seemed like a boys room,  the walls were painted plain white with gray and brown furniture, it's linens were black and white and the bedding was white with gray and black pillows.

Where am I?  More importantly why am I in a boy's room?!

I looked under the covers worried he's taken advantage of me.

I took a breath of  relief,  when I saw my clothes were still on,  at least he didn't do anything to me.

Or was he planning to?

I shoved the thought out of my mind and stood up from the bed, I walked towards the door hearing voices from the room before this.

I heard someone yelling, I stepped out of the room I was currently in and went closer to where the yelling came from.

I leaned against the door where the yelling came from. I listened to every bit of their conversation.

I don't eavesdrop but this conversation was really interesting.

They were fighting about girls, which I found really stupid but it's nice to hear how boys think of girls.

I leaned closer to listen when someone opened the door and I fell to the ground.

I looked up at the familiar brown eyes, dark-brown hair and enticing pink lips, I felt every organ in my body weaken as I stared into those beautiful orbs.
