The New Girl
Amelia Morgan, the new alpha.
Nina, Cameron, Bill, Rachel and Gary all crowded around the window leading to the room where Dr. Rosen gave Amelia his legendary speech.
Bill nodded his head as if to approve of the new girl and was the first to return to his office.
"She's pretty" Nina commented.
Amelia had blonde hair and bright blue eyes like the ocean. Her face was lightly dusted with freckles and both the girls approved of her taste in fashion.
"Not as pretty as you." Cameron whispered playfully into Nina's ear as they both returned to their offices.
"What do you think, Gary? She's pretty, right?" Rachel asked
"Yeah, I like her hair, it looks soft." Gary commented. Rachel nodded. "I'll bet it smells good." Gary said
Rachel laughed. "I'll bet it does, Gary." With that, Rachel returned to her office leaving Gary alone by the window.
Dr. Rosen was just finishing his speech.
Gary didn't want to be accused of "invading their privacy", so he slowly approached the door and tried to look as if he was just strolling by.
He pretended to be surprised when the door flung open and Amelia walked out.
"Oh, hi there." She said when she spotted Gary
"Hi, I'm Gary, are you Amelia?" He asked awkwardly holding out his hand.
"Yeah, that's me, but you can call me Amy." She said shaking his hand
"Alright, Amy."
"So, Gary, what do you do?"
"What do I do?"
"Yeah, what's your... um," Amy tried to remember the word Dr. Rosen had used "ability." She finally remembered.
Gary explained his ability.
"Amazing." Amy said when he was done
"I get that a lot." Gary stated. Amy laughed
"So are the other, um... alphas nice?" She asked
"Yeah but Bill steals your lunch if you're not careful, so watch out." Gary warned. "I'll introduce you to the rest follow me."
As Gary led the way to each office and introduced her to each alpha, Amy discovered that there was something warm and inviting about Gary. She felt like she could laugh with him all day... she liked that.
That day, Gary sat beside Amy at lunch, and when he got home, she was the only thing he could think about.
"How was your day, sweetie?" Gary's mom asked when he got home
"Great, I met a new girl." He stated proudly
"Really? Is she nice?"
"Yeah pretty too, I'm going to brush my teeth."
As Gary climbed the stairs, he found himself thinking about Amy again. For some reason, she had made him nervous. He had never felt that way about Nina or Rachel or any other girl he'd ever met. Frankly, he had no idea why she made him feel that way; all Gary knew was that he liked Amy... a lot.
