Sebastian's POV

I was in my art workshop working on a piece when I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist. I knew who it was...well kinda... it was this one night stand. I forgot her name. I think it's braelynn...Brianna....

"Sebby!!! Are you even listening to me?!" The girl asked.

"First, only certain people are allowed to call me that and you aren't one of those people. Second, I don't even know your name! And I really don't want to so can you just get out?" I said.

"What?! But I didn't even get to meet your parents!" She whined.

"And you never will. Get out of my house before I call security!" I said motioning for her to leave.

She gave me a dirty look before she left.

As if I cared...

Alexis POV

I woke up to three loud bangs on my door. I knew who it would be, my landlord- Gary. Gary is normally a funny and carefree person, but when it comes to his money, all of that is thrown out the window.

"Ok,ok! I'm coming!" I yelled before I opened the door so Gary could hear me.

"Hey, rent is due in three days! If I'm not paid by then, you and the little runt have to kick rocks!" He said in a rude manner.

I don't care if the bills are overdue, but NO ONE gets away with calling  my child out of her name.

"Hey!! I understand that you want your money, but don't you ever call my child out of her name!!" I said as I slammed the door shut.

He's lucky that I have Delaney, because of not, then that would've been a quick punch to the face.

"Mommyyy!!" I heard Delaney happily yell while running towards me. I picked her up and I planted kisses all over her face.

"C'mon baby, let's go get ready." I said as she followed me into the bathroom to brush her teeth and get her bath ready.

•2 hours later•

"Alright , be good for grandma, laney." I said leaving out of my Mom's house. As usual, laney started crying. She never likes it when I leave so I just normally promise her something for when I come back and get her, but that was when I had a job, more importantly, money.

"Mommy please don't go!!" Laney whined.

"Mommy has to go handle business, so how about we go to the park today when I come get you? Sound good?" I said.

"Yaay! I can't wait to go to the park!!" She said suddenly happy.

"Ok sweetie, be good." I said giving her one last hug and walking out of the door.

"I will mommy." She replied.

Now my friends, we look for a job.

I went home and I washed up, and I put on a black pencil skirt with a pink button up shirt and a black blazer with black flats and lastly, I put my curly hair in a bun. I called around this past week and I have two interviews, one at Blackwell and company and the other at Daniels industries. The first interview is at Blackwell and company. I locked my door and I headed to my first interview.

----------------
"Ma'am, I'm sorry I simply cannot hire you because you got fired from your last job, and I called your former boss and she told me that you were always late to work and you would not fully complete the tasks you were given." Mr. Blackwell said.

Everything that he just said was a complete lie. The only time that I was late was when Delaney had the flu and I had to take her to the doctor, and that should've been excused. And not completing the tasks at hand? I always did. My last boss just never liked me. That's ok, hopefully I'll have better luck at Daniels industries.

"Well, have a good day..." I said walking out.

"Wait!" Mr. Blackwell said.

"Yes?" I responded hopeful that he was going to change his mind about the job.

"Can I get your number?" He said just as I walked out the door. Are people serious?! How are you going to not accept me for a job, then ask for my number...

----------
I was one hour into this interview at Daniels and company. So far, so good.

"Well Ms. Porter, you have the job!" The old man said happily, causing me to jump up and hug him. Mr. Daniels seemed like a down to earth person, instead of the stereotypical snobby billionaire.

"Oh my goodness, thank you so much! You will not regret this!" I said happily.

"I hope not! And you start next Monday. Be here at 7:30 AM sharp. Since you are going to be my personal assistant, you have to be here earlier than everyone else." He said.

"That's fine. I'll be here." I said taking mental notes so I don't forget.

"Oh! Wait! I almost forgot...my son will be taking over the business so you'll be his personal assistant because I'm retiring." He said.

"Ok, that's fine." I said. I hope his son isn't one of those rude bosses that are stuck up because they have more money.

I drove to pick up Delaney and on the way I called my best friend, Jessica and told her the good news.

"Congratulations!!!! We gotta celebrate!! How about Friday? And we can invite Tisha and Michelle too!" She said planning everything like usual.

"Um, I don't know, we'll see..." I said. She knows I don't like going out.

"C'mon girl! Let's go out, we not gonna see you when you start working!!" She said.

"That's not true! But how about we have a girls night at Michelle's house." I said reasoning.

"Ok girl! But just know there will be alcohol there!" Jessica said.

"Get off my phone girl!" I said sarcastically laughing.

"Bish you called me! The fuck I look like?!" She said laughing too.

"Girl bye!!" I said hanging up and getting out the car.
