Hi! So, this is my first time writing a fanfiction story and hopefully I have at least written an ok story. Be warned, though this is my first story, it IS a lemon. But other than that, I hope it's alright and it will get good reviews. Please! A little R&R will be gratefully accepted and please enjoy! ^_^
Three months.
That's how long I've known Peter, Ray, Egon, and Winston. And the day I joined the Ghostbusters is a day I will never forget.
It was a Sunday; I had moved to New York from Chicago and was looking for a job. As I looked through the job area in the newspaper, my eyes caught sight of an ad in the right hand corner. It was advertising a job position in a paranormal exterminators group and face broke out in a huge smile. The reason? I loved the paranormal. As a girl, I was fascinated by the idea of having a dead person come back in the form of a ghost and with my house being haunted, it didn't help. So, I quickly put on a pair of faded jeans and an old Beatles t-shirt and slipped on my sneakers and ran out the door.
As I stood outside the firehouse with a raised eyebrow, I thought 'wow, this looks like a dump.' I shrugged my shoulders and stepped through the door. Inside was a big car with a siren on top parked in the entrance. I walked passed it to find a woman with short auburn hair and large glasses sitting at a desk.
"Um… hi… uh, is this the Ghostbusters?" I asked, hoping the woman heard me. She looks up from her magazine and her eyes grow wide in surprise.
"Yes, it is. Can I help you?" she asks with a thick Brooklyn accent.
"Um, yeah… uh" I say nervous, "I, uh, am here for the help wanted ad in the paper." I say.
"Oh! Right! Hold on for just a minute – GUYS!" she screams. I wince but suddenly hear footsteps above me and turn towards the stairs just in time to see a man jump from the third stair and was followed by three more behind him. The first man saw me and a smile grew on his face. He then walked over to me and stuck out his hand.
"Hi. Dr. Peter Venkman." He says the smile never leaving his face, only growing when I smile shyly back and shake his hand.
"Hi. I'm Regina. Regina Faye." I say my eyes meeting his and then looking at the other men behind him.
"Well, Regina, I suppose you're here for the job right?" he asks.
"Yes. I am." I answer back.
"Well then, in that case, I hope you don't mind me saying so, but I don't think I've ever met such a pretty women before who was interested in this stuff." Peter says wriggling his eyebrows. I blush lightly while the other men behind him just roll their eyes.
"Now before we see if you are qualified for the job, let me introduce my friends here. This is Winston Zeddemore," as an African-american walks up to me, shakes my hand, and smiles at me which I return.
"And over here is Egon Spengler," Peter tells me as I look to see a tall man with glasses look up from whatever he was typing in his calculator to shake my hand. After I shake it he goes back to his typing.
"And lastly, Dr. Ray Stantz." Peter says pointing to a chubbier looking man with messy brown hair and kind hazel eyes. He smiles at me as he shakes my hand and I smile back. 'Hmm, he's kinda cute' I think which instantly makes me blush.
"Now, I do believe you've met our secretary Janine." Peter says snapping my attention away from Ray's hazel eyes.
"Um, oh! Yeah, I have." I say, while smiling at Janine.
"Ok! So, now that you've met everyone, let's get to why you're here."
Peter than leads me to his "office" and pulls out a chair for me to sit down. I sit and he folds his hands on his stomach as he puts his feet up on his desk.
"Alright. So, Regina, tell us why you should get the job and deserve to be a Ghostbuster." Peter says questionably, but playfully.
"Well, I have two PhDs in parapsychology and psychology, I have a PhD in physics, I have thought a few classes on paranormal studies, and if that's not enough, I have even lived in a haunted house before." I answer. The four men just stare at me and at each other with wide eyes and surprised expressions. Peter then turns back to me and forces out an answer.
"Wow, um, that was… uh… impressive. I don't really think we need to discuss this situation. You get the job."
At the sound of those four words, my face breaks into a smile.
"Oh my God! Thank you sooo much!" I say full of happiness and excitement. I then shake Peters hand quickly and I do the same with everyone else. Only one thought was bouncing inside my head, 'BEST DAY EVER!' I scream inside my head happily.
So what do you all think? I hope I did ok for my first time writing a fanfiction. Please rate and review. Please any criticism is welcome. I would love to know how to make my story better (and if the characters seem a little out of character, sorry! I will try harder to keep them in character.) Later!
