Chapter One: My Life!
John winced as he slammed his hand down on his alarm clock; damn that was the second one this week he had broken. Yawning loudly he dragged his tired body out of bed and into his bathroom; slipping in the shower John groaned out loud at how good the hot water felt on his sore muscles.
His first day in his new job John was excited and nervous all at once, he was well aware he got the job because he knew the owner of the company not because of his skills; but no one else needed to know that right?
Sure he and Liz had been the best of friends; she had introduced him to Nancy which was a total failure. He and Nancy had been married for all of six months before it fell apart; she started cheating and he well he found the fact he was thinking how hot the naked guy in his bedroom was rather than said man had just been fucking his wife; well rather disturbing.
That's when he had called it quits and well yeah he admitted it he ran away; all the way to Hawaii. Had a year long vacation; well if you call getting drunk picking up hot Hawaiian men and having about a thousand one night stands a holiday.
So after a year in denial John had accepted he was Gay well and truly; he had finally come home much to the happiness of his Mother. Since his Father died she spent rather a lot of time pestering her sons; not that John talked that much to his Brother David.
David was the perfect son with a beautiful wife and three kids; where as John had only been twenty two when his Dad had died he had been young and immature. David loved Nancy his Mother however had not; she had been glad when they had broken up; he had not yet told her he was Gay but that could wait fro another time.
Back to Elizabeth his old best friend he and Liz had been friends since high school they stuck to each other like leaches; then her parents had moved her away there senior year of high school they were seventeen and he didn't see her for years. Liz moved back on her own when she was twenty one with this grand amazing plan to open her own company called Atlantis Corp. Only two years later her dream had come true and she was living it up in a cushy tower block with her big business.
John never understood how Elizabeth could stand to still be his friend he was a lay about, a failure and a screw up but she still loved him. And yeah he would be honest he still loved her/
Now at the ripe age of twenty five Elizabeth was still single with her own multination business and John well he was recently divorced, newly discovered as Gay and starting out as a lowly office boy in his old friends company.
So in total his lie kind of sucked.
Sighing at his reflection John stared at his messy hair; he used to use product when he was younger and he had liked how it looked but now days he didn't much care.
Nancy had always fussed with his hair and tried to get him to keep it short and neat but John had been repulsed with the idea of combing it. So it was slightly longer than probably appropriate for his type of job and messy as all hell sticking out at odd angles and refusing to stay still.
He was twenty five for fuck sake he should be able to decide what his own hair looked like. John surveyed his appearance; he was wearing a black suit with a white shirt, he had in his hand a red tie and a blue tie.
Which one does he wear?
Growling at his stupidity he yanked the blue one over his head and grabbed his back pack; yes he was a total child he did not have a briefcase he had a back pack so fuck you!
The train ride was long and cramped and John found himself wishing his bike wasn't in the shop; you think someone who was worth twenty million dollars he would own more than just one crappy bike that liked to break down all the damn time.
Oh right John Shepard is totally rich; his Father left both his brother and himself half of his fortune; twenty million dollars each. John didn't do anything with his but waste it at any opportunity; David started his own company and is now a successful business man.
Wraith Fashion Corp is David's company and it is Atlantis Fashion Corp's biggest Rival that's like fifty percent the reason John agreed to come work for Liz; it totally pisses off his stupid Brother.
Stepping off the train John made his way above ground to find a man standing with a cardboard sign 'John Shepard' printed in bold letters on it.
"Excuse me" John asked in confusion the man who John noted was quite short and also had on a large pair of round glasses turned to him; "I'm John Shepard, ah who are you"?
The mystery man smiled brightly "I am Zalenka! I am Miss Elizabeth's personal assistant I was instructed by Miss Elizabeth to come and fetch you".
John blinked at Zalenka "Oh alright but why"?
"You are good friend of Miss Elizabeth's; she said you were to be picked up and brought straight up to her office" Zalenka explained brightly; "Can I take your bag and show you the car"?
John shrugged nervously "Ah its cool I got my bag, what car"?
"This way sir" Zalenka announced making his way over to a fancy black limo.
John blinked in surprise 'a limo' what was Liz thinking? He wasn't special he was just the new guy. Striding over so not to seem too rude John tried to look comfortable as Zalenka held the door open for him and shut t behind him.
The drive was short and John soon found himself being led in to the enormous Atlantis Corp head building; he was given a visitor badge by a elderly looking security man to be able to get in the elevator and then they were going up.
They entered the elevator the same time a woman with long blonde hair and emerald green eyes did; she was tall but probably because of her stiletto's and slim; petite was the word John would use.
"Good morning Miss Keller" Zalenka said brightly to the blond.
Keller apparently turned to incline her head "Zalenka" she nodded "Who is your friend"?
"This is John Shepard he is the new man to work on floor twenty" Zalenka replied "He is taking over from Ford's old position; so you'll be working together quite a bit".
"Pleased to meet you" Keller smiled holding out a perfectly manicured hand "I'm Jennifer Keller I'm in charge of level twenty so if you have any concerns please don't hesitate to come see me".
"Nice to meet you too" John said with a charming smile "I'm John Shepard as he said".
The elevator dinged and Keller stepped off on the twentieth floor; the door swished closed just as she got around the corner; another five floors and John was being ushered out by Zalenka onto a large open office.
"Okay I'll just see if Elizabeth is ready to see you" Zalenka gestured to the waiting area "Please take a seat and I will return momentarily".
John nodded awkwardly and took a seat his back pack at his nervously crossed feet; he watched Zalenka disappear behind a pair of double doors there were two sets of doors in the large rounded room.
A large round reception desk was set up right in the middle of the room where a man with short light brown hair was already seated; he had a head set on and was talking happily with who ever was on the other line.
John assumed the set of double doors that Zalenka disappeared behind led to Elizabeth's office; he found himself wondering where the other set of doors led too.
The man behind the reception desk hung up the phone with a cheerful "Yes Mr Dex" and then he was back to typing away on his computer.
Zalenka came bustling back out with a smile on his face "Come along Mr Shepard, Elizabeth will see you now" he gestured towards the doors.
Taking a deep breath John steeled himself; he hadn't seen Liz in a year since his Divorce; he only spoke to her on the phone about the job; standing up John exhaled sharply as he followed Zalenka into the room.
So I hope that was okay :) Please R&R I loves Reviews :)
