Elena's POV:
I was getting late for work. I was putting on my beige short length heeled shoes on. Bonnie and Emily got them for me on my birthday. So I wore them, and I'm going to wear them until I wear them out! I then quickly stood up and grabbed the keys off the shelf and made my way to the car. I uncooked the doors and sat in and drove to work. Gosh I don't know what I'm going to do.
10-15 minutes later I arrive and bang the door close and quickly walk in. The secretary is sat at the office in her seat. She's really nice, she's amazing actually. She talks a lot and she makes me laugh. She always knows how to make someone feel better and she always brightens up the mood. Maybe one day someone will love her and see how much love she has to offer. Because they would be a very lucky person to have Lexi.
I quickly rush in and stand at her desk. She looks at me and I know she wants to laugh.
"Why so late Gilbert?" She said in a very cheeky way.
"I got caught up with stuff and I just managed to get on time for Emily"
I said hoping she would see the begging in my voice.
"Don't worry, calm down, do you really think I'll get you done for it? No okay. Just get to your office and be quick okay?" She smiled and pointed her finger at me.
I nodded "sure thing, thanks Lexi" I then smiles and sighed of relief and then started making my way to my office.
I rushed a little too and manged to bump into someone on the way. I fell and he caught me in his arms, strong arms actually. I smirked slightly to myself and stayed steady in his embrace. I looked up to see who it was. Oh Shit.
Stefan's POV:
I caught her. She fell right into my arms, why don't people just watch where they're going! I caught her and she looked up to me. She an employee. And she's late, well isn't this going to be interesting. She then stood up properly and moved back slightly and out of my hands.
"You late" I said sternly and going off topic about what just happened
" I got caught up in something, I'm sorry it won't happen again" she said softly. I then walked past her.
"It better not." I said cockily as I walked to my secretary. I didn't even know this girl's name. I don't think I've ever seen her before, and yet she works in my office. Wow. I really need to get out a lot more. I walked to Lexi and she looked at me.
"She's late Lex, why didn't you tell me?" I said slightly surprised.
"For starters, she has a name and Stefan she has reasons, just let it go okay?" Lexi said ever so nicely.
Lexi was my best friend. Well other best friend. she always helped me through a lot and was and is always there for me. She's like a sister to me, I've never thought about her in any other way, and I don't think I want to. Typical Lexi though, always looking out for others and trying to things for them. She's selfless, I love that about her. There's also Caroline for instance, she's my other best friend too. She's bubbly and a lot of fun. They both are. But Caroline can be snobby sometimes, I have to persuade her to do things. But she's a good person. She was and is always there for me, just like Lexi. And I'm always there for them too. I don't know what I'd do without them.
I nod and just agree. "Just this once" I smile at her and walk back to my office when I get a call from Caroline.
"Hey Care,-" before I could finish she blabbered on.
"Stefan! It's nearly Christmas and I don't have anything to wear on that party next week! You said you and Lexi would come with me! Well you seem to have bailed! When I come to your office I am going to kill you, so have some kind of shield!" With that she angrily hung up and I could hear how pissed she was.
I just laughed, that was Caroline for definite. She didn't need any man, her and her clothes and her beauty could love happily ever after.
Elena's POV:
"That asshole!" I shouted over a call with Bonnie in my office.
"I said I it wouldn't happen again! People like him just can't be kept happy! That undespicable human being!" I said angrily.
"Firstly calm down Elena, he's a douche, forget him, don't let him spoil your day. Look if you want I'll pick Emily up for you?" She said.
I smiled, Bonnie was always so helpful and amazing. But it would be selfish of me to say Yes.
"Bon, it's fine. Thankyou honey but I just, I'm pissed basically" she laughed and so did I.
"Do you wanna come round mine after picking up Emily?" She asked.
"Actually, I can't exactly say no to that can I?" I said jokingly.
"Ha. I won't take no for an answer" she said laughing on the other side of the call.
"Sure id like that Bonnie, thankyou, have I told you how much I love you?" I said smiling.
"I love you too elena. I'll see you later then. Bye" we both smiled and hung up. I then sat back in my seat behind my desk in my office and sighed. I looked up to see the time. It is now 1:32pm and I'm out by 3:00pm. Not long, but it feels like forever.
Caroline's POV:
I make my way to Stefan's office and boy am I going trash that place down, I walk in and see Lexi.
"Lexi! What the hell are you doing sat there? Would you just get you butt up and come with me!" I walked in and stood by her desk as she laughed. Just then Stefan also arrived too. Damn was he going to be sorry.
"Hey you too! This party is next week and I have nothing to wear!" I sounded as if I was going to burst, I wish I could have! They both grinned, gosh if wanted to slap them so hard.
"Caroline calm down, we will go with you to get something okay? Just not right now, we are busy, I promise we will though okay?" Stefan held my hand and gave me them puppy eyes, how could I say no. So i nodded but I was still irritated. Just then a girl walked out of her office and looked at me.
"What's all the shouting going on?" She looked at me "Fashion Crisis Lady?" She said and I smirked. Stefan walked over to her.
"I think you should sit back in your office, sorry for the disturbance just continue with your work" Stefan said to her calmy. Her and Lexi smiled at each other. Who is this girl? I don't remember meeting her before.
Elena's POV:
Gosh there was so much shouting and I was getting so annoyed! How on earth am I supposed to concentrate with some girl yapping on and on. It really started to get on my nerves so I went out to see. It was a blonde, she was with my manager and the secretary.
"What's with all the shouting?" I looked at her, she had been screaming about some clothes or the other. "Fashion Crisis Lady?" I said almost wanting to laugh at my own joke. Lexi smirked at me and Stefan told me to go back to my office and that he was sorry for the disturbance. What a douche! Pfft.. He says sorry now. I glared at him and walked back to my office. I sat back in my seat and stared at a picture of Emily, Me, and her Father. I must have been looking ts it for god knows how long. A tear fell from my face as I continued to type on my laptop searching through some files and documents. Oh how badly I just want to go pick up Emily and just go home. I'm so tired it is unbelievable.
It's now 3:00pm. Thank gosh! What a long day! Ugh, horrible too. I got up from my seat and packed up from my office. I walked out and locked my office door. I walked over to the secretary, Lexi, and signed out. She looked at me smiling about earlier events.
"So, Fashion Crisis Lady huh?" She said grinning.
"Yeah, sorry about that, I'm just tired, it's been a long day" I said and she understood.
"Anyways have a good evening and a safe journey." Lexi said and we exchanged smiles and goodbyes and I walked out.
I was sat in the car and I stared at the time. I was a few minutes early but nevermind. Emily hates it when I get late so I guess being early is good. I got out of the car and made my way towards her class. I stood outside her classroom waiting for her, at that point the bell went and Mrs Rose, opened the door to let the children out. Emily came running and hugged me around my waist, I didn't think she was so short. I smile and her and held her hand and walked back towards the car.
"How was school? You haven't been up to anything have you?"
I looked At her cautiously but me and her both new I was joking. She grinned and shook her head.
"I had a good day. Marie let me have her sweets, but we shared though. I even did a drawing!" She smiled and looked at me and handed me a drawing. I smiled and her at the stopped to look at it. She drew me, her and... Another person. Labeled: Dad.
Emily Doesn't want to realise that her father won't come back. She wished for this Christmas for him to come back. He left her and me yet she loved him so much despite his actions. She wants to beleive he's gone away and that he'll be back, she's so innocent and amazing for her age, she deserves so much more better
I smiled sadly at her and she gave me a huge smile as I handed her drawing back to her. I went to her side, sat her in the car seat and buckled the belt, I then moved over to my side and sat in my seat and started up the far and got going home.
Caroline's POV:
I was sat at home still angry with Stefan and Lexi, but I guess I'm just like that. I then stood up and decided to call Stefan.
"Caroline, Hey, that's a surprise your talking to me" he said cheekily over the phone.
"I'm Caroline and I'm your best friend, of course I'm going too talk to you" I said cockily back over the phone. He laughed.
"What's up?" He said.
"Who was that girl today? You know the one who have me that nickname" i said emphasising on 'nickname'.
"Oh her, she's just an employee, I actually dont even know her name but she seems to be quite friendly with Lexi. But that's all I know. Why?" He said curiously.
I had to make up some kind of excuse to make it sound like me.
"I liked her top" I said wanting to laugh. Typical me and I know it. He laughed. "You really are crazy Caroline" I smiled
"I take that as a compliment salvatore" he laughed and so did I.
"I'll see you later Care, I'm kinda getting in the car now. I'll call you when I get home" I agreed and we said bye and hung up. Who is this girl? And okay.. Maybe I did like her top a little.
Stefan's POV:
After getting off call with Caroline, crazy fashion crisis Caroline, I got in my car and started driving home. It felt like it had been such a long day and I was so damn tired. I just wanted to get home and lay on the sofa and not think about anything else.
I drove home and parked the car in the driveway and closed the door and got out. I walked in and left the keys on the desk and threw myself on her sofa. Gosh how tired I was, I couldn't understand what I did to be so tired, but I just was. I closed my eyes and rested my head back and rest there for a few minutes.
Elena's POV:
I sat in the car with Emily. Gosh the traffic! I just wanted to get home. I had a long, bad day. I was sat looking forward as the cars slowly started to move and then they stopped again, I was never going to get through at this rate. I sat waiting for the rest of the cars to move when Emily said something. She looked out of the window and pointed at one house in particular.
"Mom! That house looks just like my dollhouse! I need to go see it!"she said excitedly and got up and out of the car before I got the change to say anything, what is this girl up to now!
"Emily! Emily! Where are you going?!" I shouted and also ended up getting out of the car chasing after her. She ran into the house and opened the door. She stood in the hallway looking around.
"Emily what the hell? This is someone's house. It's not your dollhouse!" I said shouting at her. Just then someone arrived from the living room, I wouldn't blame them, some stranger ran into their house saying it looked like her dollhouse, who was it though? I quickly grabbed Emily's hand and looked up. Not again...
"You!"
"You!"
