"Hello?" I called out, stepping into the little shop of horrors. "Anybody here?"

"Coming!" A loud, male voice called out in return.

Within seconds, I was greeted by a young man, who couldn't be much older than me. A few years, at most. And let me tell you, my day had thus been brightened tenfold because of this boy. He was beautiful.

"How can I help you?" He asked, sending me a kind smile.

"Uh, I came in to inquire about the 'help wanted' sign in the window?"

Nodding, his smile grew a little larger.

"You want to work here?"

"Well, I wouldn't be inquiring if I didn't want to," I joked, earning a soft chuckle from the man.

Truth be told, I didn't really want to work anywhere. I was just sick and tired of living off of the Mikaelsons, and despite their claims of 'not needing the money', it was still theirs, and I was still taking it. I don't want to live like that anymore. It's time that I step up and be an adult for once, no matter what hell I happen to be going through at the moment.

"Good point. You ever work with magic before?"

"...I dabble."

Nodding, he held up a finger, signalling for me to wait a moment before reaching under the counter and shuffling around. After a few moments, he arose and slid me a paper and a pen.

"That's it?" I asked with a smile, taking the items. "No further questioning before I get the application?"

"Well, after you fill it out, we'll see if there are more to come."

Smiling, I nodded and began filling it out all of my information diligently whilst he kept busy with watching me and humming a light tune as I did so. And after I was done, I slid the application and pen back to him.

Scanning over it and nodding, he spoke without looking up.

"Ophelia. That's a cool name."

"It means serpent." I shrugged.

Nodding again, he tossed the application to the side, leaning back down on the counter and placing his head in his hands.

"So, what makes you want to work in a magic shop?" He asked.

"Uh, well, I like magic, and this is better than working as a waitress." I answered with a shrug. "Wait. Is this a job interview?"

"Yes, and I appreciate the honesty. This place is way better than any restaurant." He replied nonchalantly. "What are your qualifications? Why should I hire you to work here?"
