Chapter 10

I was starting work 45 minutes early since Rick the head janitor called me in early has we had two people out sick. I would get the whole top floor to myself. I put my ear buds in as I pulled the cart off the elevator and started down the hall. I would do Mr. Cullen's office first as I want to see how he liked the plant I left him and to see what crazy questions he would ask tonight.

I was dancing and singing to Respect (by pink) as I pushed open the door with my butt and pulling my cart through the door. I bumped into someone knocking us both down on the floor. Oh God I said as a rolled over to my hands and knees, so I could stand up, I also went to pull out my ear buds, so I could talk to who ever I just knocked down and ended up pulling out my hair tie making my hair fall down around my shoulders.

As I started to stand up, I saw who I knocked down. Oh God it was him Mr. Cullen. How could I be so stupid? I could feel that I was bright red from blushing. He was a little red also, but not nearly as red as I was. He got stood up before me and reaches out his hand to help me up.

"Hello I'm Mr. Cullen and you must be the night janitor." He said.

"Yes my name is Bella Swan. Nice to meet you Mr. Cullen, I am so sorry for knocking you down." I replayed blushing all over again.

"Nice to meet you also Bella." He answered back.

"I was not aware that you were working late tonight, please forgive me for barging in your office while you were still working." I said not wanting to look into his eyes.

'I don't have a problem with you barging in here to clean, but I do have a problem with you and that Zune. How can you clean, listening to music and keep yourself from getting hurt? It seems that you have troubles just walking off an elevator without getting hurt." He said with this crooked smile on his face that just lit up his emerald-green eyes.

I found myself getting lost in his eyes.

"If you prefer me not to listen to music while working then consider that done.." I said while I rolled up my ear buds around my Zune and put it in the front pocket on my smock that I was wearing.

I went to push the cart back out into the hall, so I could go and work on some other office, so he could finish up his work in peace. He reached out and touched my arm.

"Bella thank you for the plant it love it." He stated with that crooked smile.

"You're very welcomed; I will get out of here and finish up with the other offices while you finish your work sir." I said smiling back at him.

He let me leave the office, so I could do my work. I re put my hair up in it's ponytail that I always wore while working. I now know that it was Mr. Cullen that had helped me when I had twisted my ankle coming off the elevator this morning. He must think I am just a clumsy girl. His hand a felt so warm, and welcoming when he helped me up from the floor.

I wonder if he had left me a note before I showed him how clumsy I was. I bet that he doesn't want to be friends with me now. I guess I should consider myself lucky that he did not fire me right on the spot. I cleaned all the offices on the west wing and then headed to the lunch room. To my surprise, I heard my name being called over the intercom system.

"Ms. Bella Swan, please report to Mr. Cullen's office." His musical sound voice called.

I ran to his office paused outside the door before I pushed it open. He was sitting at his desk. He motioned for me to take a seat in the chair on the other side of his desk. I sat down not knowing what was going to happen.

"Do you prefer me to call you Bella or Ms. Swan?" He asked.

"Bella would be fine with me." I answered back.

"Then please call me Edward." He said.

My heart was pounding too hard I did not know if I was going to be able to stay sitting in the chair. He told me that he like the idea of us being friends. He also told me that he didn't think I have been honest in my answers on the notes. As I was no where near being fat. I told him it all depends on how you look at yourself. We talked my whole lunch period. We even laughed a few times. I really think I am on my way to at least having my boss as a friend. I would love for it to be more. Those eyes just draw you in and keep you right there even when you don't want to be looking into them.
