First off, I wanna thank everyone that reviewed again! I saw some new reviewers so just to let you guys know, I like to reply to all my reviews. I feel like it makes me think someones reading and I feel like readers deserve to know that I'm not ignoring you all. C: I appriciate everything!

I was frozen in my spot when I saw a familiar Aussie who I thought I last saw in high school. He raised an eyebrow at me since I didn't reply.

"Miss?" he asked as he went toward the copy machine.

I sighed as I realized he didn't know it was me, of course... I went toward the machine slowly and said. "I said I had fifteen papers but when I pressed the fifteen it gave me..." I slapped my forehead mentally as I realized my mistake. I'm such an idiot.

"Oh, just never mind," I said as I took fourteen copies and put them in the recycling. I fixed the number to one and continued to copy each different paper one by one. But he wouldn't leave oddly enough.

"Have I seen you before?" he asked from behind me.

I continued copying each paper without saying a word, I didn't want to lie but I didn't want him to notice me. Sure, I had a small crush- but it was nothing! I didn't want him to remember me from what he sometimes used to call me. "Business bitch."

Sure, I snapped at him a few times, but it doesn't bother me anymore. He snapped his finger in my ear repeatedly and now I was ready to yell.

"What?" I snapped at him as I turned around. He squinted his eyes at me as he focused. Man, did he grow? Now I was getting intimidated.

"Where do I know you from?" he asked.

"Look," I huffed. "I need to get these copies to my mo- Mrs. Sanban for her accounting needs. Please move." I waved him off but he wouldn't move.

"Sanban..." I can see the gears slowly turn in his head. Move now, Kuki! Go before he-

"That's it! You're Kuki Sanban!" he said happily once realization hit him.

"Yes, I am. Now if you don't mind..." I tried to get around him but he blocked me.

"I remember in school that you were..." I knew what he was going to say.

"Busy with my life? Trying to focus on my career? Get rid of all distractions?" I asked now just frustrated. Maybe I was a little snippy, but now I sound like one of those girls at school who insulted any girl to crush their self esteem. "Or bitchy?"

I exhaled some air as I finally composed myself. I can't believe I just released my anger all at him! A co-worker! He stood there dumbfounded as I walked around him and towards my mom's office.

"Here you go," I told her finally relieved I escaped. "Please tell me I copied the right things."

She looked it over for several minutes. If it wasn't, then I'd have to go back where... HE was.

"Exactly what I wanted. You can go," and she waved me off. What am I? A secretary? No matter, I walked back and sat back down in my chair and looked at the "to do" list.

"Issue financial statements."

Okay, not too bad. Pretty boring, but I can do this until my internship is over. Ohmigod! I'm supposed to see Mr. Fulbright about the side internship!

I walked out the department and saw Abby on the phone, I gave a small wave to her and she nodded to me with a smile. I hit the up button and waited patiently for the elevator. It came with a ding and I walked to see I was the only one in. Finally, peace at last!

After ten floors, the elevator stopped and I groaned loudly. Why? I tried to not look disappointed so I wouldn't offend the person coming in, but it immediately shown again as the doors open.

"You've got to be kidding me," I said loudly as I saw who it was.

"Nice to see you, too," Wally smirked at me as he entered. Where did he come from exactly?

"What are you doing here?"

"Working, duh."

"But you came off this floor, last I saw you was on my floor," what is he? A delivery boy? What a laugh.

"I work with my dad for his department. He is head of the electronic department so he updates the technology of the company. I work with him to tell him which electronics are in our budget, so you'll be seeing me in your department sometimes," he wouldn't stop smirking. I have to see him more? Great...

"And you're going to see Mr. Fulbright?" I asked.

"Sure, I have to ask how much money we earned this month for more electronics. What about you?"

"Internship," why was I telling him this?

"Interning? Isn't that for college students?" he asked.

"Yes, but to get my dream job I have to have experience first. It's not for long," stop it Kuki!

"I see you're finally warming up to me," he said smugly. Damn him, I am.

"It's to only pass the time to make it to the top floor," I said in a matter of factly. We then tried to ride the rest of the way in silence.

"You know I'm just doing this so I could save up," he suddenly said to me.

"Get a place of your own?" I asked. Huh, me too.

"Already got one," he said quickly. Now he probably thinks he's better than me.

"Car?"

"Got it," he defiantly thinks he's better than me. Job, car, house, money...

"Then what?" I wondered. I can't believe I'm intrigued in this guy.

"I'm in medical school, but it's kind of crazy with this job to help pay it off and then school."

"Is this your final year?"

"I hope so," he said in thought. "If I don't pass the final test then I got to take another year of college." Ha! I was already out of college! Sure, not as long as he is, but still.

The elevator door opened and we walked out. I went up to the secretary and asked. "May I please see Mr. Fulbright?"

"Do you have an appointment?" the secretary looked up from behind her glasses.

"Er- no, but I have to talk to him about a small internship with my financial internship," I explained. "See, I mostly need his business expertise for my job and I'd like to do it with my other internship."

The lady stated at me for a moment and I Wally give a long whistle behind me. "That's a lot for an internship."

I didn't bother to respond to him but the lady just looked back to her computer. "Can't go in without an appointment."

"But I intern here!" I protested. How can she possibly not let me in?

"Look, Kuki, maybe you can come back next week," Wally tried to help but honestly, I could punch this guy now.

"No, no, no, I need this internship!" I said loudly.

"What is- Kuki!" I heard someone familiar say. I turned and saw Fanny's crazy, fiery, red hair to indicate she was here. How can I forget she was here?

"Hey, Fanny," I smiled.

"What are you doing in daddy's office?"

"I need to see him for a small internship," I said hoping she'd get me in.

"Daddy? Fanny Fulbright?" asked Wally confused. "You're related to Mr. Boss?"

"Why does everyone call him Mr. Boss? My last name is Fulbright so he is Fulbright," Fanny said irritated but when she turned to Wally, she smiled. "Oh, I didn't see you, Wally. I haven't seen you since high school."

What's with the change of personality? You can think she was ready to say, "of course I'm related to him you stupid boy!" but then she saw him- oh, boy.

"Fanny," I said trying to get her focus away from Wally. "Can you get me in?"

"I'm pretty sure," she said. "He's not doing anything now."

She guided me towards the double doors to leave Wally with the secretary and we entered to see a giant, hunch backed, Mr. Fulbright who was sitting at his desk. He looked up irritably until he saw me; he always liked talking to me since I first met him.

"Kuki, what a surprise."

"Hi, Mr. Fulbright," I smiled and extended my hand to shake which he complied.

"What can I do for you today?"

"I'd like to talk to you about an internship," I said feeling nervous asking him.

"An internship?" he hummed as he rubbed his chin. "Fanny, please leave us."

"With pleasure," Fanny muttered in response. I hope she realizes she's still with her boyfriend...

"So are you here with your mother?" he asked me.

"Yes, I'm also interning with her. But I require an internship in the business field," I explained. Then I explained from the interview to why I'm here now, which he seemed very interested about.

"I'll give you an internship," he said and I cheered joyfully. "But how about you intern for me and only a small part for your mom? It makes sense if you want to go more business than financial."

I thought it over a few, it would probably beat doing whatever the heck was on my "to do" list that I had idea what it meant half the time. I nodded in agreement. "It's a deal, Mr. Fulbright," and shook his head.

"I'll go now," I started walking away. "Wally Beetles is waiting for you after all."

"Great..." I heard him mutter. "Another Beetles."

I giggled as I walked out; I saw Fanny talking to Wally and seemed pretty bored with her. He saw me come out and quickly came up to me.

"I'll see you later?" he asked.

"Hmm..." I thought. "Maybe."

He smirked and winked and went inside. I went up to Fanny and hissed. "What are you doing?"

"What?" she asked.

"You're flirting with Wally!" I said shocked about her. "You have a boyfriend in case you forgot."

"I know," Fanny whined. "But we we're going to break up anyways."

"What?" Fanny lost it. I can feel it, she's in love with Patton!

"Yeah, we've had our troubles a lot lately."

"But every couples fight."

"Not as much as we do."

"But that's what you guys a couple!"

"I don't like it anymore..."

"Fanny..."

"Please just support me on this?" Fanny asked and you can tell she was becoming annoyed and losing her temper.

"Think it over," I said softly and walked back to the elevator to tell my mom the news.

I walked up to Abby and groaned loudly and leaned against her desk.

"How's your day goin', girl?" she asked.

"Rough... I realized that that jerk Wally works here."

"Wally Beetles? From high school?" she asked curiously.

"Sadly."

"Wasn't he the dumb, hot, athletic guy from Australia who was a player?"

"Yep."

"Ooh, well good luck."

"Huh?" what was she talking about?

"Try not to fall trap to his game."

"What game?"

"His little love game, remember?" she asked.

I shook my head. Gawd, how low did I lay in high school? I couldn't have avoided that much.

"He would always get close to a girl and date them for a little while, and once he gets what he wants then he'd dump them. He and his friends made it in some game about how hard the girl fell for him, but they can't return feelings or else they lose."

"That's awful!" I gasped as she slid a plastic blue card with a serial code on it.

"Yeah," she agreed. "Abby had a friend that dated him for almost a year and they went at it. She loved him so much that she bought him some expensive famous sports player signature and then he just dumped her."

"That's horrible!" I couldn't believe my ears. How could I not know about this? What a jerk, and to think I could be his next prey.

"I should be getting back," I said weakly just thinking about this.

"See yah at lunch, girl," Abby said as she picked up a ringing phone.

I waved to her and opened the door with the new key card that Abby gave me during our conversation. I entered and went toward my mom's cubicle to tell her about my meeting with Mr. Boss.

"Knock, knock," I said as I peeked into her office.

"Kuki, how's your work?"

"I think I should tell you that I'm interning for Fanny's dad now, but I'll still be interning for you too," I just hope she won't get too mad.

"That's fine," she seemed unfazed. How can she be unfazed?

"So it's fine?" I asked unsure.

"Yeah," she looked up this time. "It makes sense. You should pack some stuff."

"Why?" I asked.

"Because you can't work here when you're working for Mr. Boss."

"Oh, okay," before I left, I asked. "Why is he called Mr. Boss?"

She just smiled. "It's a long story that I'll tell you some other time."

I rolled my eyes and went back to my office. I got some of my first task done, but it was so hard and confusing! Can't screw up a thing! I finally got my first call.

"Hello?" I asked.

"Miss Sanban, Mr. Boss would like to see you in his office discussing your internship," I heard that grumpy secretary say.

"Okay, I'll be up in a bit," and hung up. I never sat down for more than ten minutes since I've been here! I went over toward the elevator and pressed the up button again. I entered and slowly made my way to the top.

As I was about to get out, I ran into something muscular.

"Oh, sorry," but then in stopped when I saw Wally. "It's you."

"The one and only, going down," and he entered walking past me.

"Just cause you work here doesn't mean I still don't think you're a jerk," I spat. He was about to walk back out and protest but the door closed just then. How perfect!

I went in the room and saw Mr. Fulbright sitting there and looked up with folded hands and motioned for me to sit down.

"Kuki, I forgot to mention that you can start tomorrow morning, seven o'clock and the floor below is the office of my close workers. It's not a lot, but just a few. Then when you have three hours left in the work day, you can go to your mom."

"Thank you, sir," I nodded. Not too bad, I wonder what he'll make me do.

"You can go now, I'm sorry I didn't tell you before."

"It's fine," I assured even though I was annoyed I had to travel ten minutes just for him to say all that. He said I could go and I left.

When I did, I saw Fanny happily walking up to me. "I've been thinking about it, and guess whose single again in two years?"

Yeah, not the best ending. I hope the next chapter will be better for you and please R and R not only this but other stories please c: And I hope to update next week too cause I noticed I've been lackin.
