Chapter 3 Bang
Jamie couldn't control the nerves that rocketed throughout her body, they just seemed to keep going. Today, as Raven had reminded her, was her job interview, she only hoped that she could see John as well. Jamie knew that things would of changed between them and that she wouldn't automatically have her friend back but she hoped that John would be happy to see her at least. Jamie sat in the hallway waiting for her name to be called, she was still nervous about this whole thing but she trusted Raven's plans, if it failed Raven would have a back up plan, she always did.
"Jamie Michales?" Some woman with curly blonde hair asked, she seemed quite nice with her bubbly voice and alluring green eyes.
"Yessum thats me" Jamie bounced up from her seat "Is he ready to see me?"
"Yes just go on in and good luck"
"Thank you Mary" Jamie giggled as she went in to see her grandfather.
"Hey grand-pop, how you be?" Jamie asked sitting down in front of Vince, his warm smile put her at ease.
"What can I do for you Jamie?"
"I'm here for a job interview"
Vince looked at her taken aback, a job interview seemed way out of her depth. "Are you sure thats why your here?"
"Yes"
Vince looked at her for a full minute before giving a short puff of air "Alright then lets get this show on the road"
Jamie giggled as he looked at his sheet of questions, "Alright question one, why do you want this job"
"Because I like helping" Jamie answered instantly, Raven had already gone over this with her about fifty times and Jamie felt she had it down. Vince kept asking her questions which Jamie answered easily and through out the course of the interview Vince found himself thinking that Jamie was the exact person he was looking for. It was too bad he had to tell her no.
At the end Vince looked at her somewhat sadly "Well Jamie you passed with flying colours but I'm sorry I have to reject your application"
Jamie didn't even bolt at the rejection instead she pulled something out of her pocket "This is for you, from Raven"
Vince took it and with heavy hands he pried it open. You + discrimination = lawsuit & Storm is her lawyer
Raven knew that he would reject Jamie's application and Vince had to give it to her, she had the bases covered. "Alright Jamie let me process this and I'll get back to you in a few days"
Jamie stood up and shook his hand happily "Thank you Grand-pop"
"Anytime"
Jamie was practically skipping when she left the meeting, she had no idea what was in the letter but it had worked just like Raven had said it would. She kept banging into people that she knew.
"Jamie?"
She turned and came face to face with John himself. He still looked as good as ever, his purple shirt switched for red. She instantly hugged him "John! Its so good to see you"
He hugged her back his heart strings giving an almighty tug. "You too, you look good" He held her at arms lenth so he could get a good look at her changed appearance, he knew that just because her appearance had changed it didn't mean that she had and he found himself falling into old love with her.
"So how was the world?" John asked trying to remind himself of the pain that he held when she left.
"So bright, I had no idea I was this tall" Jamie giggled completely enthralled by his red t-shirt.
"You always did have a thing about your long legs" John laughed, he hadn't felt this happy in years and he knew it was all due to seeing his little buddy again.
"There just so long" Jamie cheered her face glowing with pleasure, she loved seeing him again.
"Hey baby there you are"
Jamie looked at the woman hugging John in confusion, why was a woman hugging John and should she be feeling this hurt?
"Hey babe, Jamie this is my girlfriend Liz, Liz this is my friend Jamie"
"Nice to meet you"
Jamie just looked at her, trying not to cry or rip her head off, Raven didn't tell her this part of the plan. "Hi, your wearing sparkles" Jamie couldn't keep her eyes of the glitter. It was the only time in her life where she hated having this problem with her brain.
"Yeah I am" Liz shot her an odd look before looking at John.
"I have to go now" Jamie gave them a smile before just walking away, she was feeling so much it was hard to take in, maybe Raven could explain it to her.
