This is in third person's POV enjoy :)
"Oh shit! I'm late ." was what Sarah thought as soon as she entered the glass doors of the store she had an interview for.
"Miss. Freeman. You have been called in the office for your interview." A voice said from the intercom as Sarah just entered the waiting area. She fixed her clothes , cleaning some imaginary dust off and tightened her high pony tail.
"Excuse me , may I come in." She said peeking her head cautiously inside the big wooden doors.
Nathan who was quietly observing this from the seat near the window found it amusing how the girl rushed in the room like a storm and left without leaving any trace of her, going unnoticed by the people-or trained army like dogs as he liked to call the people his father hired- in suit and tie all for the job vacancy for the manager of the departmental store which would soon be passed on to him him in about a month after he turned 18.
After not so interestingly going through the newspaper for about 10 minutes he decided to take a walk around the spacious room which also had a row of mannequins in the corner near the window from where you could see a beautiful view of the New York City. He turned around so he could warm his back because it could get pretty cold in NYC during the winter.
He crossed his arms in front of him just stood there embracing the warm sun.
After a few minutes the big wooden door opened and the girl came out with a ghost of a smile on her lips.
"Huh maybe her interview went well?" Nathan thought to himself.
She went to sit on the couch where Nathan had recently sat on and started going through a newspaper.
Like Nathan she also got bored after some time and decided to roam the room as well.
Nathan who was silently observing her quickly closed his eyes as she came near him and towards the window.
"What a real looking dummy." She thought to herself as she passed him and to the window to look at the view of the city.
She then turned around and started observing all the dummies one by one until she reached Nathan . She really liked leather jackets, black ones to be exact and you guessed it Nathan was wearing one that day. She leaned in a bit closer and started touching the material of the jacket and caught a whiff of cinnamon and mint.
"Maybe they put cologne on the dummies too." She thought .
"What do you think you're doing?" came a masculine voice from above her head.
Sarah looked up so fast her head started spinning or was it because of the overly attractive boy standing in front of her who was so perfect that she thought he was a dummy? We'll never know.
"Umm I'm sorry. I thought you were a mannequin ....because you were...umm...standing beside some." She stuttered and apologized with a smile.
He barked out a laugh and put an arm on her shoulder which took her by surprise and ended up in both of them falling, on the floor.
"I'm sorry. I just find you very funny."He said giving a charming smile.
"It's okay."
"I'm Nathan."
"Victoria Justice." She said fixing her clothes once again.
He barked out a laugh again but thankfully didn't put an arm on her.
"See I told you you're funny."
She couldn't help but smile along because his was contagious. :)
"Sarah Freeman."
"Do you wanna go for a cup of coffee?"He said straight out.
"Straight forward huh?What if he's a psycho serial killer? Wait doesn't he have to give his interview?"She thought .
"Don't you have to go in there?" She asked.
"Nah Dad'll handle it." He said nonchalantly.
"Dad?"
"Yea the strict man that just took your interview was my dad."
"Oh " was all she could say but inside she was screaming.
"Oh my god! I'm going on a date with my to be boss. Maybe my to be boss. Wait is this even a date?" She was pulled out of her thoughts when she felt an annoying nudge on her arm.
"Where's your car?" He asked.
She pointed to her silver BMW which was gifted to her by her parents for her 17th birthday. It was her baby.
"Are we going far?" She asked as she got into the drivers seat.
"No just a couple blocks away but it's better if we don't walk." He said.
After some crappy directions by Nathan and a really annoyed Sarah they finally reached
"COFFEE BEANS!" Nathan shouted as he entered the little coffee shop which he reckoned selled the best coffee in NYC. They got their drinks and sat down in a table near the window.
"So you seem pretty well off" He said pointing to her car in front of the shop and taking a sip of his mocha."Why are you applying for the job?"
She had her hands put around her coffee cup and was leaning on the table. She smiled down at her cup and looked up which knocked the breath out of Nathan because of the warmth and passion her hazel eyes held.
"Yes I'm pretty 'well off' as you like to call it because my dad owns the Freeman Textile Industries." hearing this Nathan's eyes widen."But I'm taking a chance in life you know. I've always been told that I have the same skills as my father to control the industries so I'll be taking over the industries as expected by everyone when I turn 18 ." She paused and took a sip from her coffee as well" But there's still about half a year left for that so I just wanna live like a normal teenager and do a job. But my parents won't let me do anything less than a manager so I tried for this job. Ta-da." She finished and smiled.
"Well that was my story . What about you?"
"How do you even know I have a story?" He asked still in aw.
"Obviously by the way you seemed so bored in the office and also when you literally died when you got the chance to get out of there." She stated.
So that's how they ended up talking all afternoon, laughing, smiling, totally forgetting about the interview results and both of them panicking about it because of the other.
And it all started with a job interview.
