Starling Ranch chapter 1
Felicity looked at the road while she was driving. She admired the landscape. There was a lot of fields but she could also see the Rockies far behind. It was beautiful. She smiled. She was heading to a brand new job. The cherry on top was the beautiful sunset. She felt like she was driving into it. After a few minutes she saw the sign she was looking for. « Starling Ranch ». She took the good direction as the wind blew into her air. She was driving a convertible. She was welcomed by several sounds. She heard a few animals making noises and then voices. She parked her car and left it. She looked where the sound was coming. First she saw a lot of dust. Then she saw cattle running in the pen. Three men on horses were guiding them and screaming. One seemed younger than the two others. The one who seemed the oldest was colored. The youngest was happily screaming. He was smiling too. The last one, well she didn't see his face clearly because he was wearing a cowboy hat but he looked cute. She shook her head. She was here to work not to flirt. With that thought, she stopped looking at the three men and walked towards the door. She rang the doorbell.
?: a young woman opened the door Hey, Felicity Smoak ?
Felicity : Yes.
?: Come in, we were waiting for you.
Felicity : she did so Thanks. Oh by the way, hello. I forgot, sorry. Don't think I'm unpolite, it's just...Um, I'm going to stop in 3..2...1. Ok I'm fine.
?: she smiled I'm Thea. I'm going to get my mother.
Felicity : I'll wait here.
Thea smiled and walked away. Felicity looked around her. It was nicely decorated. Kinda feminine, she noticed. Not girly but it was lacking of a male touch.
?: Hello.
Felicity : Hi, you must be Mrs Queen.
?: Please call me Moira, it makes me feel younger.
Felicity : Alright.
Moira : We can go in my office to sign your contract.
Felicity : Sure.
Moira : Follow me.
They went in the office. Contrary to what Felicity saw, it was more masculine in this room.
Moira : she read her thoughts It was my husband's.
Felicity : Oh.
Moira : Not that he's dead. He just decided that ranch life wasn't good enough for him. I don't know why I'm telling you this.
Felicity : It's ok, I babble too sometimes.
Moira : Anyway, here's the contract we agreed on. You can proofread it.
Felicity : she read Yes, it's what we agree on.
Moira : Good then she handed her a pen
Felicity : Thanks she signed the two sets
Moira : Perfect. Well, I'm sorry I have things to do but I'm sure my daughter Thea would be delighted to show you the horses.
Felicity : It's fine.
Moira : She'll be on the porch.
Felicity : Going there. Thank you for giving me that job.
Moira : You deserve it.
She smiled and left. Thea was indeed waiting for her.
Felicity : I'm ready.
Thea : You'll love it here.
They walked towards the barn and went in. It was full with horses.
Felicity : Awww awesome.
Thea : Horses are your life.
Felicity : Yes they are she went to pet one
