It was a few days later when Amanda was getting ready for her shift at work. She had just throw her hair up into a pony tale and was throwing her wallet into her purse when her phone rang. She grabbed it and answered as she grabbed her keys to go and leave.

"Hello."

"You were right."

"About what Devitt?" She asked as she locked her door.

"Her being a gold digger. Found out today she was also seeing another co-worker of mine without telling him she was seeing me. And apparently this isn't the first time she did this."

"Aw, I'm sorry. I know you liked her." She said as she stopped in the hallway and tried to comfort her friend. "But at least you found out now rather than after this had gone on for a while. Then it would make it even weirder for you at work."

"Yeah, I guess that's true. I guess I should start listening to you huh?"

"I told you. Women know these things. Want me to mess her up?"

He laughed on the other end. "No thanks. I'd rather take a little heartache than having to find a place that would allow me to withdraw bail money this late."

She smiled. "Okay. Well, hopefully I don't see her on my way to work. She just might accidentally trip and break her nose."

"Right, it's an hour ahead there. Go get to work. I'll talk to you later. And stay out of jail! I won't be home for another three days so you'll be in there a while."

SHe laughed. I'll try, ut no promises. Text me if you need me Dev. It'll probably be pretty slow/"

"Thanks hun. I appreciate it."

She smiled and said her goodbye as she hung up the phone. She was sad for him that it didn't work out, but she just had a bad feeling about him. He always joked around that she never liked anyone he brought home. Which it really seemed to be that way, but she just had a good instinct about people. And she knew how he was and who wouldn't work for him. He was always too nice to everyone. He would just give and give until he had nothing left. And was never able to see someone taking advantage of him.

It was around two in the morning and Amanda was standing at the counter of the 24 hour pharmacy she worked at bored. She was leaning onto the counter when she fet her phone vibrate in her back pocket.

'How's your night going?'

She smiled and texted back. 'Oh fine. There's just a guy in here demanding all of the money in the register. He says he has a knife but I haven't seen it yet. Oh hang on, he's getting irritated because I'm ignoring him.'

'Don't do that!' Fergal texted back. 'You know I worry about you working there so late."

'I don't know why. It's actually quite boring. Besides, i'm 24. I'm not a child.'

'Biologically no. Mentally…'

She laughed at her phone. 'Stop being a dick.'

She then went to reply again before he answered her. 'Besides, working here late actually gives me time to come up with ideas and put some quick sketches together. Then hopefully I can quit here and do that full time.'

'I could help you with that you know." He replied back.

'No. This is something I need to do on my own. Anyway, how is your night going?'

"Not so bad actually. Me and some of the guys talked and had some laughs and felt stupid. But we felt stupid together.'

'I guess next time any of you start dating anyone you should bring in a picture to show around.'

'HA! That's actually not a bad idea.'

'Customer just came in ttyl.'

Fergal smiled and put his phone back in his pocket. She may have had a tough exterior, but deep down she was a sweetheart and always managed to make everyone feel better when they were down.
