"It will be fine. All I have to do is follow a few orders... For twelve hours a day... For 3 months." I thought to myself as I slid my foot in my sneakers. I stood up and in swif motion picked up my keys before looking at the tall mirror that leaned against my wall. I had a pair of blue jeans and a white tee on. "It was good enough for my job". I said and left the house.
Today was officially the first day of summer and since I only had two true friends in high school, I didn't have much to do. So I decided to get a job.
10:56
I arrived at my destination. I pulled over in a big driveway outside a big house. Scratch that, its a mansion. And on second thought, I should have wrote something more formal. I stand outside the tall doors and knock three times.
The door opens but no one is behind it. Its time y/n, time to turn around and run back home from this obviously haunted place. I just had a feeling something terrible is going to happen like in a horror movie.
Before I could take a good look at the inside of the mansion, someone jumped I front of me, scaring me to near death.
"What the heck?" I yelled trying to catch my breath.
"Seriously? You though the doors just open up themselves?" A dude my age laughed at me. The first thing I notice was his jawline. It wasn't symmetrical which was the cutest thing ever. Then his eyes, they were deep brown just like his hair that was covered with a beanie.
"Firstly, it always happen in horror movies so- yes" Says I , the person who spends most if their time watching Netflix.
"Okay? Anyways you must be y/n ? "
"Yeah, I'm going to be a personal assistant for Sean Dolan" I took a breath of air. "Is he you're father or something?"
"Yes actually."
I nod.
"Well come in I'll show you to his office... I'm Ethan." He said leading the way up the spiral stairs. Ethan that name reminded me of something but I couldn't make out what. He was good looking , very good looking if you ask me. But I have to concentrate on my new work.
"My cats name is Damon." I say without realising. Shit well this is great, been here for less than 10 minutes and I've already embarrassed myself.
"Oh like from Vampire Diary's?"
"Oh my god. Marry me now." Fuck again. I need to keep my mouth shut. He chucked. "I mean, do you watch vampire diary's or something?".
"My sister does so I sometimes watch it I guess."
"Okay, you're saved from not having to marry me anymore." I laughed nervously.
He laughed. "Anyways I'm going to my room now this is his office." And waved a good bye.
Once again I knocked three times.
"Come in."
I opened the door and stepped into the room. "Hello, Mr Dolan." I smiled at him.
"Please, call me Sean." He shook my hand and I smiled at him.
"Thank you for hiring me to be your assistant, I really needed this job." I laughed awkwardly.
"Oh, you're not working for me. You're working for my sons."
"Sons?"
"Well there is Ethan and Grayson. They're your age, but they're really busy with their career and I must say they are a bit too childish in my opinion to get things done, so you will be there to help. So as I was saying; Just make your self feel at home. If you need anything; A drink a snack or anything just have it. Also we always have family dinner at 7 so you're welcome to join us."
"Oh wow. Okay so what kind of things do I help them with?." I laughed lightly.
"So they're youtubers so they need things to get done on time. And you will be there to make sure it happens. Today it won't be any hard work, just get used to the place. I will give you some names and numbers to remember and everyone's schedule." He said taking a seat in his leather chair. He opened a drawer and took out a file of papers. He placed them on the desk in front of me and I picked it up.
"You should save these phone numbers on your phone. Its just my wife and the children's number in case an emergency comes up."
"Okay and the schedule?"
"Right, so its all written here." He said pointing in different places on the piece of paper.
Monday : wrestling , edit.
Tuesday : uploading.
Wednesday : gym.
Thursday: lacrosse, gym.
Friday: film.
Online school: 8:00-14:00
"...and on this day, I'm going to Bahamas for a business trip. I'm bringing the family with me and if its okay with you, I would like to take you."
No matter how tempting it was, I certainly didn't have the money for it. And I hardly knew this family.
"I would love to but I don't have the money an-" I smile at him and rub my forehead before I get interrupted.
"Oh it will all be paid for. Since it's a business trip, remember."
"Oh right." I mentally slapped myself. "Sure then, I would love to go." I say excitedly. Getting this job was the best decision I've made. Or so I thought.
