The intern
*beepbeep beepbeep*
*thonk*
*crash*
Oh great. was my first thought this morning. Good thing my alarm was me-proof otherwise I'd be late at my internship for the last month.
my second thought quickly replaced the first. The opening! Today is the new exhibition opening! I was doing an internship at big museum in LA, and today was the big opening of the new exhibition. It was going to be a big event, they even hired a band to play.
I got up, got dressed, and went to the kitchen as quiet as possible. Didn't want to wake my roommate, she could sleep in for another hour or so. In the kitchen I made myself some cereal and a nice cup of tea. Brushed my teeht and got out, everything as silent as the night, or at least trying not to stuble on anything to loud.
I grabbed my bike to work, I was one of the few employees at the museum who did that, and the other people who rode their bike lived closer. There have been a lot of jokes about me riding that thing, but hey. I'm Dutch, we ride our bicicle to work, it's what we do. You should see the trainstations here, we have more bikes in our tiny country than people.
After an hour ride, wich was a nice way to clear my head, I arrived at the museum. It was an historical museum, my favorite kind, it was 8:00 so not much people around. I made my way to the stage for tonight. It was my job today to make sure that everything worked. Well not the tecnical stuff, I'd probably blow that up somehow, but making sure that everyone was on time where they should be, doing what they should be. The technisians were already busy so I just got them some coffee, with events like this these were the people you had to keep happy.
"Hey, Marie is here!" I heard one of them say. The youngest, maybe one year older than me, walked my way. Don't get me wrong he was cute, but he seemed to think he was God's gift to women, wich was quite a turn off.
"Hey beautiful" I heard a voice say. "The answer is still no Jake, just like yesterday, like the day before yesterday and just like tomorrow." I said without bothering to look up, to busy with my schedule for today. "Ahw, come on, I know you want to. This whole good-girl act isn't fooling anyone, at least not me. Deep down, you are a naughty girl dying to get out." Jake said. Alright this ends here and now, he wants bad, heg ets bad.
"You know what," I said, finally looking up. "You may be right, I am bad" I pointed my finger at his chest, he wasn't expecting this reaction and couldn't say a word. I started to make him walk backwards, eyes on me. "I am so bad, Jake, but I don't know how." Almost there. The other tech-guys were watching now, they knew I was kidding, they just wanted to see Jake put in his place. "Oh, Jake what am I going to do, would you pleaseā¦" *CRASH* Yes, mission accoplished. Jake had no idea where I was leading him, making him fall over one of the speakers he had to put on stage. "Put these on stage, where the belong?" I finished my sentence. I turned around and walked away, enjoying the laughter from the other guys. Served him right.
The band would be arriving in about fiftheen minutes, I would show them around, give them a little tour. By then the stage and the instruments would be ready for soundcheck. In the meantime I could read my research on them again, and listen to their Music. I told my supervisor that is was part of the research, but I really liked their sound. The Director's daugther had good taste. The band was called R5, and I had become a big fan over the last week. Riker even appeared in a few of my day-dreams, and regular dreams. Well he was the colsest to my age, I told myself. I was twenty and he twenty-one, so.
I was woken out of my new day-dream about the blond bassist by one of the volunteers. She told me the band was early and waiting for me. Oh shoot I rushed back to the stage where I spotted three new blondes and three new brunettes. Ross saw me first and nudged Rocky in the arm to say something. Apparently about me, cause the others turned around to see me walk into the room. They all were smiling friendly, Ryland and Riker were almost staring for some reason.
The oldest started talking. "Hi, I'm Riker. And they are Rocky, Ross, Rydel, Ratliff and Ryland." He said, pointing at the person he was talking about. "You must be, Marieke?" I couldn't help but laugh a little at the way he pronounced my name, peolple never get that right around here. "I guess, but back home they pronounce it Marieke. Don't worry sof ar no one got it right the first time, just call me Marie. Everyone else does." I answered his question. "Marie it is then, I'll honest we had no idea who to expect when they gave us your name. We figured it be foreign though." Riker replied. "You were right, I'm not American. I'm from The Netherlands, wich explains my funny name and my funny accent." They all laughed at that.
"So what is the plan for today?" Ross asked. "I'm gonna give you guys a tour through the museum and the new exhibition, after that the stage should be ready for soundcheck. After soundcheck I'm supposed to keep you guys busy till it's time to perform" I explained. And i led them out of the hall we were buiding the stage. On our way out I saw Jake looking our way, he was not happy. But I knew he was't gonna be a problem. His job was on the line here, if he messed this gig up, he could go find something else, that's what you get for making to much trouble.
*Riker's Pov*
Today we had this big gig at the museum. We were supposed to meet this guy Marieke, or whatever his name is, when we arrived. But when we got to the big hall we couldn't find him. After some asking around this lady tol dus to wait by the stage, she would go and get Marieke. Ratliff started talking about giraffes or something, I wasn't really paying attention. I am not a morning person. When Ross nudged Rocky in the arm. "Dude, pretty lady coming our way" this made me turn around of course. Ross was right, and she was coming our way. Could this be? Boy, do I hope so.
When she finally caught up with us I started talking. "Hi I'm Riker. And these are Rocky, Ross, Rydel Ratliff and Ryland. You must be Marieke." Please be her, please be her. She laughed, is this good? . "I guess, but back home they pronounce it Marieke. Don't worry sof ar no one got it right the first time, just call me Marie. Everyone else does." Phew that was close. Marie I could say, no problem. "Marie it is then, I'll honest we had no idea who to expect when they gave us your name. We figured it be foreign though." Wait what, why did I say that? "You were right, I'm not American. I'm from The Netherlands, wich explains my funny name and my funny accent." Thank God she wasn't offended, thank God she was funny.
"So what is the plan for today?" I heard Ross aks. "I'm gonna give you guys a tour through the museum and the new exhibition, after that the stage should be ready for soundcheck. After soundcheck I'm supposed to keep you guys busy till it's time to perform" Marieke explained. A whole day with her, sweet. I could tell this was gonna be fun.
When we were leaviing the hall I saw some guy staring at our host. He did not look friendly, what his problem? He better not do anything when I'm around. Marieke ignored him, so maybe he wasn't that big a problem.
