Chels pulled up her car in front of an old resteraunt. It's neon sign was coming off, so while it should've said "Taco Casa" its said "Aco Sa". The paint was peeling off and only one car was in the parking lot other than us.

Chelsea: Ta da! Your new workplace.

Me: Seriously?

Chelsea: Yeah!

Me: Your kidding me, right? This place looks disgusting, there's NO buisness, and IT'S SUMMER! We're supposed to be having fun, Chels!

Chelsea: I know, but I recently got this new job, and I don't wanna leave you alone the entire time. So... my friend Meg offered to give you this job, IF you could handle it. Know you, I said "Sure she can!" and here we are!

Me: Ughhh. Aunt Chelsea!

Chelsea: Oh, come on! You LOVE mexican food!

Me: I know, but.. really?

Chelsea: Lexi!!! It'll be fun! Meg is almost as cool as me!

Me:*sarcastically* Yea.. so cool she works at a run-down taco place.

Chelsea: Lexi, be nice. Now lets go see your new boss.

Me: Well, too bad! I don't want this job.

Chelsea: Pay is $50 an hour.

Me:*eyes widen and mood brightens fast* Leggo!

I hopped off the car and stood at Chels' side. As she walked, I paid attention to the sound of her heels clicking against the hard ground. It made a cool beat. The Aco sa was cleaner and cooler in the inside than on the outside. It had pictures of back when it was popular. The majority of the place was white, but here and there were some red and blue colored things.

A young girl, about 20 something years, walked in the back and didn't seem to see us. Chels called out for her and caught the girl's attention.

Chels: MEG! SHE'S HERE!

Meg: *spins around* Oh! Hey girls.

Meg had light brown hair with some blonde highlights that she pulled up into a high ponytail. She had tanned skin that was completely clear of any blemishes or anything. Her eyes were a pretty shade of green. She pressed her lips in a way that made her seem like she was focusing on something deeply. She wore a red "Aco sa" shirt and hat. She looked at me and flashed me a superstar smile, making her dimples show, and stuck her hand out at me.

Meg: Hi, i'm Meg.

Me: Hey, i'm Lexington, but most people just call me Lexi.

Meg: Cool, Lexi. Chelsea's been telling me just how wonderful you are.

Me: *grinds teeth* Oh.. really? *shoots daggers at Chelsea*

Meg: Yea, and i'm so psyched to be working with you.

Me: Same here.

Meg: So, you wanna get started?

Me: I, uh--

Chelsea: *looking at her watch* That'd be perfect, because I gotta get to work now.

Me: But--

Chelsea: Have fun, Lex! *kisses her on the cheek*

Me: Okey..

Meg: Good Luck, Chels!

Chelsea: Thanks, Meg. I owe you one!

Meg: It's no problem.

Chelsea pushed the door open and I watched as she clicked her heels all the way to the car, started the engine, and began driving away. I wanted to watch the car go all the way down, until it completely disappeared out of my sight, but Meg caught my attention again.
