Love to Dawn and Carmen who pre-read and Sally for her beta magic. I tinker so all mistakes are mine.

ENJOY!

Closing a retail store sucks. There's an endless list of shit that needs to be done and zero motivation to get it done. Luckily, I wasn't alone. On the other hand, unfortunately, I wasn't alone. We were in the juniors' section refolding a display of jeans, when my three coworkers descended upon me.

"So, what's the deal with you and that Edward guy?"

Tanya's voice was non-judgmental but filled with curiosity. Not sure what was up with us, I shrugged.

"Come on, Bella. You've got to give us more than that. You've been all glowy and googly-eyed. There's something going on between you two." Jessica waggled her eyes, and I smiled at her.

I was going to throw them a bone when Angela opened her mouth to spew shit. "He's probably looking for an easy fuck. He looks like the type to hit it and quit it."

For a brief second, my heart sank as I realized there could be truth to her words. Luckily, Tanya and Jess had my back.

"You're just jealous cuz you asked him out and he turned you down," retorted Tanya.

"More like she went down in a blaze of non-glory," snickered Jess.

Angela huffed, flipped us the bird, and stomped off to another part of the store. Curiosity got the best of me about what went down and more importantly, when.

"What's the story, morning glory?" I pinned my gaze on Jess as she was most likely the one to spill.

With a gleeful smile, Jess regaled me with what she witnessed.

"It was late last week, Angela cornered him when he was out for a smoke break. She tried to flaunt her tits, got all touchy feely, and then asked him out." Jess rolled her eyes, and I stifled a giggle. "You should've seen Edward! He had his sunglasses on, and when she was done fawning, he lifted them up and said, 'Did you say something?' He didn't even wait for her to reply before he walked away!"

The three of us howled in laughter, and my self-esteem bloomed. That was until it was Jess' turn to pin me with her gaze.

"So, really, are you guys like exclusive or something?"

A/N: Hmmmm... I wonder what the answer is...

I'd love to hear your answers! See you Wednesday!
