"Thanks, Andre," I said gratefully to the barista as I shoved my strawberry blonde hair behind my ear.

"No problem. Today's the big day, isn't it?" The light haired man asked.

I nodded as I attempted to straighten my dress. "Something bad is going to happen. I'm calling it."

Andre laughed in amusement as he handed me my coffee and the doughnut. "On the house."

"No." I insisted as I pulled out a five-dollar bill out of my wallet and placed it on the counter.

"Stubborn," He mumbled.

"And proud." I said with a laugh as I turned around to leave.

"Good luck!" Andre called out behind me.

I opened the front door wide, "I'm going to need it."

I walked silently to my blue car, opening the door and sitting down in the worn seat. Taking a sip of the steaming hot coffee and a bite out of the stale doughnut, I started my car.

I glanced down at my clock, my engagement was going to start in twenty minutes and I was nearly fifteen minutes away. I let out a sigh as I drove quickly through the crowded streets.

I was getting closer to my destination when a black sedan completely cut me off and caused my car to crash into the back of his. My whole body lurched forward as I jammed my foot on the brakes.

My head hit the steering wheel roughly, bringing tears to my eyes. But other than that, I was fine. I quickly scrambled out of the car to see if the driver I hit was okay.

As soon as I stepped out of the car I came face to face with a very large, handsome man with a very large scowl on his face. He looked no older than me, twenty-five at the most, and dressed in an expensive black suit with an emerald tie.

"I'm so sorry!" I managed to squeak out without stammering. The muscular man just glared at me.

"Why did you run into me?" He demanded angrily. I blinked.

"I'm sorry? You cut me off too quickly! You're car was too close to mine." I responded, fury dancing through my body.

"Please, I gave you plenty of room. You're car is too old to slow down properly."

I scowled back at him and crossed my arms over my chest. "Look, there is no damage down to your car, only to mine, so please give me your information."

"No."

"Yes."

"No."

"Stop being an idiot, give me your information."

"No, you ran into me. You pay for your own car, if you can even call that a car." He said, his dark hair sweeping into his face.

"Are you kidding me? I can't afford to pay for that damage." I said in disbelief.

"Yeah, you're right. It would be cheaper just to get a new car than fixing this dump."

I sighed and placed my head in my hands.

The man's jaw slackened. "Look, I have to go to work, but my brother is a mechanic. I can get you a pretty big discount."

He pulled out his wallet and grabbed a business card and wrote his name on the back of the card.

"Thanks." I said quietly.

He looked at me in surprise and then handed me the card. "Say that I referred you."

I nodded at him and glanced at my watch. I was late.

"I have to go," I yelled over to him as I entered my car. "Called it." I murmured to myself.

I drove away from the scene as quickly as I could and rushed to the large building that I was supposed to be at. I pulled into the parking lot and ran up the stairs, not bothering to wait for the elevator.

I reached the main desk and a pretty, tall girl sat behind it. She glared at me, "You're late."

"I know, and I'm sorry, I got into a small accident."

Her dark brown eyes pierced me. "You're lucky. He's late. Have a seat."

I sighed in relief and slumped into a black leather chair. "I'm Chloe."

"Tori." The girl said in disdain.

I nodded slightly. "How's the boss?"

"Horrible."

I opened my mouth to talk again, but Tori cut me off. "Please do not talk to me. I'm working."

She then proceeded to call a girl named Liz and the two of them had a very lengthy conversation about everything other than work.

"Liz, I'm going to have to call you back." Tori said, then ended the call with her friend. "Get up." She said to me. I did as I was told and smoothed out my dress.

"He's ready to see you now. Follow me." Tori said as we walked down a long corridor, nearing a large glass door. "Watch out, he's not the friendliest."

"How many people are applying for this job?" I asked quietly, my heart hammering.

She glanced at me. "Only one other girl, Rae. And she will not get that job, over my dead body."

I frowned slightly and continued walking with Tori. She paused once we reached the door and knocked on it.

"Come in." A deep resonating voice sounded from inside the office.

"Go." Tori hissed at me as I stumbled forward, opening the door.

I tried to still my shaky hands as went to look at him. At the sight, I felt as though I was going to collapse. It was the man I had run into earlier that morning.
