Chapter 13: What a Day!

I was woken this morning to the endless ringing of my phone.

Who in their right mind is calling me at this time?

Without even opening my eyes my hand searched for the source of the noise. When my hand came into contact with the vibrating object, I lifted it to my ear.

"Hello." My voice sounded groggy and annoyed.

"Ally! Where are you? Are you ok?" The panic was evident in Jayde's voice.

"Yeah. I'm fine." I was highly confused at this point. "What do I owe the pleasure of this early morning call?"

"Um...Ally have you seen the time?" The time?

I opened my eyes and turned my head in the direction of my clock. The red numbers were flashing 00:00.

Midnight? That could not be right.

I pulled the phone away from ear to look at the time. I literally screamed as I realized the time.

"10:00 o'clock! Oh shit!" I exclaimed, jumping out of bed and running into the bathroom.

"I knew it. You are never sick or late. I got worried when you didn't show up. The storm got worse and temporally knocked out the power last night."

"Thank you Jayde. I'll be in as soon as I can," I informed her before putting the phone down.

I brushed my teeth, before jumping in the shower. After the quickest wash of my life, I ran back to the bedroom. Even though I was running late and my thoughts were running all over the place, it had not escaped my attention that the rain was still hammering on the windows. Having that in mind, I dressed in a black trouser suit with a white shirt and black heels. After yanking a brush through my hair, I grabbed my bag and a black trench coat before running out the front door.

I stopped on the porch. It was raining heavily. I guess the storm had moved in. I unlocked the car door before running down the path and jumping into the driver's side of the car. The short journey from the front door to the car had soaked me, I was glad to be out of the cold and the wet. I entered the key into the ignition and turned it but nothing happened. I tried again but was still met by silence.

NO! This cannot be happening! NOT NOW!

I looked at the gas gauge. It was empty. I had forgotten to get petrol yesterday! I knew there was something I was meant to do. I sighed out frustrated, pushing my hands over my face. I gave up trying to start the car and called a taxi. I remained in the car until the taxi pulled up behind my car. I left the warmth and dryness of the car and ran to the taxi pulling the door closed behind me.

"Good morning ma'am. Where to?" The driver was short and dumpy but polite.

I gave him the address and promised to give him extra if he got me there within ten minutes. Staying true to the deal the drivers super speeding and insane driving had got me to work within ten minutes. I threw two twenties over the car chair before pushing open the door.

As I got out of the car I stepped into a puddle, only to lose my balance. I tried to grab a hold of the taxi door to stop my fall but I slipped and fell into the side of the taxi.

"OWW!" I screamed. That seriously hurt. That is so going to bruise.

"Ma'am? Are you ok?" The driver asked, worried.

I blushed bright red, I could feel the heat radiating off my face. Trust me to make a fool of myself. I pulled myself together, brushing my coat down.

"Yes. I'm ok. Thank you." I said closing the door and walking across the road, narrowly avoiding being hit by a car.

Thankfully, I managed to get to the pavement without injury. I was close to work; hopefully I could get into the building without anything else going wrong.

Oh how wrong I was.

A few steps away from the building my footing dipped. Did I step in a whole?

I looked down, hoping to see my foot in a pot hole in the ground or something. But that was not what I found. Instead I found the heel of my shoe, stuck in one of the holes in a drain cover.

That was the last straw.

"WHY?" I screamed. Many of the passers-by turned to look at me like I was crazy.

I just ignored them. I was beyond irritated right now.

I tried to pull my shoe out of the hole but I just ended up pulling my foot out of the shoe. I couldn't walk around with one shoe on. I ended up on my hands and knees trying to coax the heel out of the drain hole. It seemed that no matter how hard I tugged and pulled it would not budge. I was just about to give up when with one almightily pull, the shoe was released from the drain.

The shoe not the heel.

I stared at the shoe in my hand and back to heel that remained trapped in the drain. I was seriously going to lose it!

I closed my eyes and breathed deeply through my nose before standing up and walking into work. By the time in entered the reception area I was late, soaking wet, bruised, limping and modelling one shoe.

Lauren and Jessica were working at the reception desk. Jessica was typing away on her computer while Lauren was talking on the phone and filing her nails. When I neared the desk Lauren caught sight of me. A smug smile appeared on her face as she leaned over to nudge Jessica. Jessica's mouth flew open as she looked at me.

"You look nice Ally. Is it rain by any chance?" Lauren voice called to me before bursting out laughing.

I just ignored her and carried on down the corridor. But I could still hear her annoying laughter. As I reached my office I spotted Jayde. She was at her desk. When she heard my approach she looked up from the computer. Her eyes widened in shock as she took in my appearance.

"Not a word. Don't say a word," I warned her walking into my office.

I heard a light chuckle before she entered the office after me.

"Bad day? Come on lets warm you up before you catch a cold."

I could hear amusement in her voice but she let it go. I told her what had happened this morning as she helped me peel off my heavy soaking wet coat. Luckily my suit seemed to be dry. She turned the heating on high and brought me my coffee. She gave me a hair brush before dispatching herself to buy me a new pair of shoes.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Thanks to Jayde I was now sporting a pair of black ballet pumps instead of my usual 5 inch heels. She figured that because I was having a bad day then the least she could do was to make sure I was comfortable. My hair could not be saved. It was overly curly and still damp.

But at least I was warm.

What a day.

My stress levels have not gone down. The smallest little thing is irritating me today, I was finding it difficult to focus on anything and to top it all off it was Monday which meant Kira would be back tonight.

I was slightly nervous about her return. Austin and I had become close over the last month, a little too close and I was praying that she wouldn't find out. Well that's not completely true. In a way I did want her to find out, so her and Austin wouldn't get married, then Austin and I can be together, get married, have two kids and live in a house in Utah.

Ok, it's a fast fetched dream but you can't blame a girl for trying.

Anyway back to Kira.

Her being back was unlikely to lessen my stress, if anything it was going to make it worse.

Now that she was back, she would be taking over the wedding arrangements. Therefore Austin wouldn't have to.

I smiled as I imagined the look of pure relief he would get from that small piece of news.

But my amusement came to an abrupt halt as a though occurred to me. If Kira was going to take back control, what did that mean about Austin and I?

Would I see him again?

The idea of me, never seeing his face, seeing that breath-taking smile, his deep chocolate eyes, hearing his beautiful laughter, just that idea caused me enormous amounts of pain. My eyes stung slightly just thinking about it.

A knock on the door brought me out of my daydream.

Jayde opened the door but didn't enter the office.

"Come in Jayde." I looked at her like she was crazy.

She hesitated before walking into the office.

"Um...Ally. We have a problem," she said hesitantly.

"No. No please no problems," I begged. She looked at me apologetically.

"I'm sorry Alls. I know you're having a bad day. If I could deal with this myself I would but they listen more intensively to you. The problem will be fixed quicker," she explained

"That's crap and you know it. What's the problem?" I asked in the end.

"Um...I received the daft of Mr. Moon's invitations. They have the wrong date on them."

"Oh no" Jayde walked forward placed the invite on my desk.

I sighed before pulling it towards me. It was a lovely invitation. Austin was right it keep it simple but to add the pink in there. I pulled the ribbon of the outer box before removing the neatly rolled up invite. Removing the diamante butterfly and then the pink ribbon I unrolled the paper and there it was. Written in black calligraphy was the wrong date.

"Great," I said to myself quietly. "They haven't been sent out have they?" I asked Jayde

"No. Not yet." Jayde replied.

"Have they been written out?" Please say no.

"I believe that they have started." Jayde said, hesitant again.

"Perfect." I said frustrated. "Get them on the phone, please."

Jayde walked over to the phone situated near the sofa, on a small table in the corner of my office. She picked it up and dialed some numbers.

"I have Ally Dawson on the phone, Yes, Thank you." She removed the phone from her ear before talking to me. "Line one Alls."

I huffed before picking up the phone on my desk and pressing one on the keypad.

"Hello Miss. Dawson, How may I help you?" I didn't bother with the pleasantries. I got straight to the point.

"I have a problem, a big problem. A problem I'm not very happy about!"

"A problem? What may that be?" Her voice became slightly nervous. I was a bitch when it came to my work and an even bigger bitch when it came to other peoples screw ups that had my name on them.

"Yes, a problem, involving the invitations for the Starr wedding. Can you tell me what date you have for wedding?"

"Yes of course, please hold on a second," she answered quickly.

There was some taping on the other end of the phone.

"Um... August 28th"

"Really?"

"Yes ma'am."

"Then can you please explain to me why the invitation I have in my hand says JULY 20TH!" I was really angry by this point.

"I'm sorry ma'am." She asked, clearly confused, and slightly scared.

"July 20th! The date on the invites is the 20th. Have you started writing them out?"

"Yes ma'am the invitation process has started, they are almost finished."

"Finished? Well they're all going to be having to be done again. I want them done again, to your deadline without the mistake this time and change this font it's terrible!"

"Yes ma'am."

"Thank you," I replied softly before hanging up the phone.

Jayde was standing staring at me with a look of disbelief and amusement.

"Bit harsh Alls."

"I know. See now I feel really bad. Should I ring back and say sorry?"

Amusement crossed her face, but she shook her head.

"All sorted then?" She asked gently. I rolled my eyes.

"Yes everything is sorted. Well it better be," I replied before returning to the paper work in front of me.

"Ok," she said softly before giggling and leaving the room.

This is the worst day of my life.

It really couldn't get worse.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

The rest of my day was generally quiet. I don't know why but for some reason everyone seemed to be avoiding me today. I didn't mind though, I sat in my office, working through the details for the wedding singer and just enjoyed the peace. I even stayed on late.

While working through the paper work, it became apparent that even though I didn't want Kira to come back, in terms of her wedding I really needed her back and soon. So in a way I was grateful for her return, even if I wasn't happy about it.

At about nine o'clock I decided to call it a night. As I was about to leave my office, the phone on my desk rang. My irritation was returning.

Why can't people ring me when I'm not doing anything!

I composed my voice before picking up the phone.

"Hello," I answered.

"HELLO..." Someone shouted down the phone trying to make sure I could hear them over the noise in the background.

"Helllooo" I said again.

"HELLO, ALLY! IT'S KIRA." I pulled the phone away from my ear as she shouted down it.

"Kira? Where are you? What's that noise?" There were some strange beeping noises in the background and a lot of shouting and swearing.

"I'm in the airport, Ally. I can't get home."

"What? Please tell me you're joking."

"I wish I was. But there are no fights flying out because of the storm. I'm stuck here."

"Storm? It's just drizzling." As the words left my mouth a massive flashing lightning struck, lighting up the entire sky, followed by an enormous crash of thunder.

"Yeah, sounds like it," she laughed down the other end of the phone.

"Kira, it's not funny."

"I'm sorry Alls. I've tried. There is no way." I sighed, pushing my hand through my still damp hair. There is no point in getting pissed off. There is no way she can get here.

Do not stress yourself out!

"Well, when can you get back?"

"Not until the storm on your end clears. Even when that happens, there are so many people who can't fly out until then. It might be a few days." I groaned loudly.

"Listen Ally, I have to go. I'll talk to you as soon as I know I can come home."

"Goodbye Kira," I said replacing the phone on the receiver.

Before placing my head on the desk.

Great! Just great!

I wake up late, get soaked, the car breaks down, bruise my leg, then break my shoe, I'm sent the wrong invites and now my bride was stuck on the other side of the world.

I was wrong this day could get any worse!

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

The rain was pouring as heavily as I left work. It looked like the heavens had opened.

The streets were empty. There was no way I was going to be able to catch a taxi in this weather.

Sighing, I pulled my coat all the way up and began walking to the train station.

I had been walking for a few minutes when something ahead of me made me want to cross the road. Standing in the entrance of a shop, were two men. Both were stocky, and dressed too casually to be on their way home from work. They were laughing loudly and as I walked passed them I could smell the stench of alcohol.

Walk faster, my mind was screaming at me

"Hey gorgeous" I put my head down and continued to walk away from the two of them.

Faster!

"Hey, come back," they called after me. Oh, yeah right, like I was going to do that.

When I didn't turn and acknowledge their last comment I started to hear foot steps behind me.

They were following me.

I carried on walking very quickly toward the train station, praying that as soon as I got there, they would see the people around me and just leave. I looked behind me to see the two guys walking ten feet or so behind me. Five minutes into my walk I became even more worried. I was sure the station was closer than this.

I could still hear faint footsteps behind me. At the end of the road was a corner which leads out onto the main road. The main road, which is where I really needed to be right now, it would be safer. My pace increased slightly. It seemed to take forever for me to reach the corner.

I knew my way around New York but due to the heavy rain and gale force winds I seemed to have taken a wrong turn.

I was facing a brick wall.

Dead End

My brain seemed to go into panic mode, adrenaline was rushing through my veins. I turned and walked back around the corner only to be met the two men in question.

I jumped slightly.

"There you are," one of them said in a husky voice, a smug smile on his face.

"It's not nice to run away when someone is talking to you," the other added, I wanted to throw up.

The taller of the two took a few steps towards me

"Stay away from me. Don't touch me." I wanted my voice to sound strong and fearless. However, it was shaky and volume less. I was scared and they knew it.

They just laughed at me and continued walking toward me until my back was up against the wall.

There was no escape.

I couldn't run without being caught. Plus I didn't want to give them the pleasure of chasing me. There was no point in screaming. There was no one around to hear me.

I turned my head sideways and squeezed my eyes shut.

Please don't let this happen! Please help me! I screamed in my head, praying that someone would hear my plea.

Suddenly headlights flew around the corner, causing the two men to jump back in surprise. Someone jumped out of the car, slamming the car door.

"Get away from her, NOW!" A furious voice commanded.

I looked towards the person who may have just saved my life.

THANK YOU!

Wait...I knew that voice.

No! It couldn't be...It was.

He was standing near the two men. He was glaring at the two men with an expression that was murderously angry.

"Austin." I whimpered before everything went black.

Oh my god! Poor Ally! But thankfully Austin was there on time.

Let me know what you think in a review.

Thank you for reading!
