The Sinclair Deluxe
BEEP BEEP BEE- SLAM
Eleanor's hand came down full force on her alarm clock, It was finally here. Her first day of official work. She lifted herself out of bed and rubbed her eyes, She wasn't the type of person that got lots of sleep. With a quick stretch and a long winded yawn she dragged herself to the shower and got ready.
Within the next half an hour she was headed out the door, 7:30am. She had to be there at 8:00am and be there until 8:00pm. All of her excitement was already overclouded by fear, Having remembered her first awkward semi day there.
Being that she had no car, She took the bus. A long ride filled with annoying kids on their way to school, Sick people who don't bother covering their noses and perverts who try to cop a feel. Luckily the most ride seemed normal, Other then the girl in the seat behind her who was burning a hole in the back of her head. She almost turned to look but knew she would be noticed, She decided to ignore it and left the bus on her stop.
Before getting to the building she stopped at a store and picked up a bottle of Sports Boost, The leading energy drink. She took a sip and sighed as she made it to the front of the building. She walked up the door and a the doorman held it open, Surprisingly. She couldn't tell if it was the same guy as before because last time his face was in a newspaper. Ignoring it she rushed into the elevator and hit her floor button, Before the elevator went up however Fontaine and Delta stepped in, Fontaine's shirt was covered in hot coffee and he was arguing with Delta.
'' You big moron, You ruined on of my best shirts. Why can't anyone here pay atte- ''
'' Maybe if you got your head outta your ass for a minute you could see where you're going. ''
'' Why do we even need a security guard? Absolutely unbelievable. God forbid someone tries to attack the newspapers! ''
'' Nope, They need me here to protect people like you. I know this one guy who ones to beat the crap out of you. ''
'' … ''
Eleanor backed up, Hoping they wouldn't notice her but Delta turned to her and smiled.
'' Oh, Your that new secretary Eleanor. Hello. ''
'' Oh.. Hi. ''
Fontaine turned and sighed.
'' Oh, Another person who doesn't watch where they're going, Are you two related? ''
'' No, But I like her so if you bother her I'm going to toss you into the printing machine. ''
'' pfft.. ''
Eleanor smiled, She hadn't know that the security guard had taken a liking to her so quickly that one day. Maybe he was just being nice. Fontaine left the elevator a floor early, Probably to get away from Delta. As he left Delta turned to Eleanor and crossed his arms.
'' So he doesn't like you huh? Well if he doesn't like you, I like you a lot. He gives you any crap let me know. ''
'' Uhh.. Thanks. ''
'' Uh huh. Have a nice day. ''
He nodded and left the elevator, Had she made a friend already? The elevator continued and finally reached her floor. She stepped out and walked over to her station. She sat behind the computer and began working. Her work was pretty boring, It didn't include any of the fun stuff that she could tell was going on around there.
While people were getting news stories, Writing and editing, She was dealing with appointments, Phone calls, Fixing Sinclairs schedule and managing files. After a couple of hours of boring, Grueling work her lunch hour had finally come and she grabbed her bag and started to head out.
She jumped when a voice called out to her, She hadn't expected anyone to talk to her. She turned to see Delta and two other men talking. She walked over to the group and recognized on of the men, It was a man named Jack and she met him on her first day in the elevator. Unlike last time he actually seemed to be in order. The other man extended his hand and introduced himself.
'' Hi, My names Cole. I'm one of the photojournalists. ''
Cole unlike the others was dressed more casually. He had on a white shirt with a opened gray windbreaker over it. He had on plain blue jeans and had a camera around his neck on a strap. His hair was short, Reddish brown and messy.
'' Hello, I'm Eleanor. The new secretary. ''
After greeting the young man Eleanor turned to Delta.
'' Hey Delta, What's up? ''
'' Oh yeah, Me and the guys were going to go eat together. Why don't you join us? You seem kind of lonely over there. ''
'' Really? Oh ok cool. ''
Eleanor felt her spirits go up a bit, She smiled and followed the group as they began to leave.
