Chapter 2
Anastasia woke up with a banging head and a sense of dread in her gut, her phone vibrating on the bedside table next to her. Kate her room mate and best friend, must have already been up and gone to class. She grabbed her phone and saw she had 20 new emails, she remembered the ad and cringed.
She sat up fighting against the wave of nausea and opened up her first email.
"I will plan ure day, take off your panties and send us a pic, c if ure sexxxy x"
Some people were creepy, clearly that line would never work for an actual person Anastasia hoped at least.
She went through the list deleting them quickly pervert, pervert, was that even legal level pervert? Can't spell for toffee man, wanted her to take up knitting, she was almost considering that one until it said send pics in knitted bikini.
Then one of the messages caught her eye, it simply said:
"Good morning Ms Steele, how are you feeling today? Grey." for some reason she felt this one needed a reply, mostly because he seemed less crazy than some of the others.
She replied, "Like death drank too much last night. I'm not normally that stupid. Please ignore the stupid Ad. Thanks, Ms Steele"
Anastasia stood up and had barely walked over to her bedroom door when her mobile buzzed again. He had replied.
"Take an Asprin and have a glass of water and then get some breakfast. You will feel much better. Grey" Anastasia scowled at the phone he clearly wasn't getting the hint that she didn't really want to be told what to do.
"I am capable of looking after myself, I don't really need your help and I'm not hungry. Thanks Ms Steele" she typed out, not sure why she was even replying.
She poured some water and searched through her medicine cabinet for headache pills, not because she was listening to him, she wasn't, her head just hurt.
Her phone went again."If you were that capable you wouldn't have the hangover from hell right now. I wasn't telling you what to do, think of it as friendly advice. So what were you drinking to forget anyway? Grey"
"I took some tablets for my head. Thank you for the friendly advice then, even though it's not necessary. Who said I was drinking to forget? Anyway going to work now. Goodbye Grey" Anastasia wrote as she shoved her phone into her backpack grabbed a banana and her car keys and left for another fun packed day at the hardware store where she worked.
Anastasia was bored, painfully so when she decided to check her phone. He'd messaged her again, "Would you think it's weird if I found out where you worked?" he asked.
"Yes." she emailed back straight away.
Her phone beeped seconds later, "Well save us both the weirdness and tell me then?"
Anastasia sighed this man was either very overly confident or a complete stalker, maybe both.
