Nancy's POV:-

....

...lovingly Paul" And done!!!!!

That was the last letter for the day and thank the god, I could finish it before the clock struck 12. Hours of typing in that awful, sickening position is aching my entire body and I wonder if I would be able to walk tomorrow without the help of a crane. I mean, I don't want to be my Aunt Phyllis. *sigh* The poor lady didn't see that boy on the tricycle coming.

I gently folded the paper in half and put it inside the envelope and placed it aside atop the big pile of letters. All these had to reach the post office tomorrow before 10 am, which again, I only must do. *another long sigh*

The hard task was not over really. Usually other than the janitors and rats, no one stays back in the office. The room which I was referring to George a little while ago, was on the second top floor. I don't mind taking the steps. Really, would do me great owing to my bulging stomach. The corridor gets eerily cold. Not to mention it's extremely lonely and dull appearance.

I take my coat from the coat rag and lock the door to the office securely before leaving. On my way to that secluded room, which I believe was only built to 'satisfy' the usual needs of both men and women, I swear I could hear some gags but I decided to avoid it, as intuitions do not work like 97% of the time (for me)

As thought, the corridor was long, ghastly and empty. Only a single light was lit on the corridor and miraculously the light ended right to the point, the room was located. I crept down the hallway, the obnoxious *click click* sound my heel making.

The room had no numberings or name on that, but it was a dark brown wooden door, with a silver color coated doorknob. Oh I wonder how long has it not been touched by human hands? I gently twisted the knob, surprised that it wasn't locked from inside. I push in the door and enter myself inside and suddenly..

"What the fuck!", John crept in between the sheets, his lady friend, hiding her face (not sure because of embarrassment or the corridor light which suddenly filled the dark room with profound light).

"Oh god, I am extremely sorry!"

"Get out of here!", John yelled and before I could see 'things' I closed the door shut with a loud thump.

"Always knock before you enter! Always knock before you enter!", I almost cursed myself as I almost tripped down the staircase.

I thought me ripping my skirt while playing seesaw in 4th grade was the worst thing that ever happened to me! But THIS? Walking into two people having sex? Totally surpasses that!

It was now 12:10 am and I was standing on the concrete pavement outside the office and I virtually had no idea where to go. Going to my apartment was useless since Mrs. Lamb wouldn't let me in before a written apology which was also not possible since my paper and pen was inside my apartment! Also if she were to let me, due to a sudden change of heart, how on Earth was I suppose to reach there? The place was 45 minutes away from the office by walk and walking to that place at this hour, not to mention the chilly cold and me being a girl (oh well), I wouldn't reach my apartment until I get robbed or kidnapped. I should have listened to George. Leo could have stayed but NOOOOOOO, my dumb mind had Johnny Cash playing inside my mind all the fucking time and even walked in to two people having sex, one of them being your one-fourth boss.

As I mumble obscene things to myself I hear chatters behind me. I turn my head to the source of the noise and see John coming out, completely dressed, his tie loosely hanging over the collar of his shirt and his coat, dangling on his shoulder, his lady friend following him behind. I instantly look away and fixate my gaze on the street. I don't have eyes behind me but certainly do have ears and nose. I could hear the *tsk tsk tsk* sound of both their shoes as it stopped at a haul. The smell of the lady's cologne was intoxicating. I swear they must have been like 10 feet away from me.

"How much cologne did this lady actually put?"

"I'll call you later alright?", I heard John mumble and the rattling sound of the heel ultimately began to fade as it started taking the other way. I slightly nudge my head towards her direction hoping to see her face. I saw her strawberry blonde locks, falling graciously over her shoulders, her backless party dress revealing her marble like skin *Gasps* She walked like a model, could have been a model, I couldn't be bothered much really.

I was almost snapped out of my dream as I hear John clear his throat. I again gaze at the street, my fists tightly clenching one another.

"Please don't let it be awkward", I thought to myself.

"Nancy..', John whispered standing next to me, his hands tucked inside his pocket.

*Outburst*

"Oh John, I am so sorry! I didn't know you were in there having se-.. I mean I didn't know there was even a person in! The lights were off from inside and the door was also unlocked so I assumed that no one was in, so I just barged in! I mean where is the modesty gone right? Look, if you want I can write you a formal apology and everything, I didn't mean to see anything and by the way, I didn't see anything. You know your.. (fuckkkkkk) I mean I am as blind as an owl! (Awkward pause) No wait, owls see better at nights right?" Could I be really any dumb?

"Are you done?", John smirked, his overgrown locks covering his eyelids. I thought he was angry on me.

"I am done... I guess"

John sharply exhales. I squint a little.

"Nancy, everything is fine. I know you didn't mean to walk into us like that and to be fair, Yuri doesn't mind getting walked into like that ya know?", John hummed.

I squint even further at his words.

"So ..?"

"She is a prostitute", John replied, lighting away his cig.

"Ohhhhhhhhh!"

"Anyways I presume you have no place to go to now right?", John battered puffing woolly smoke in.

"Well.." *nervous giggle*

I don't know if we stood there for long or each minute consisted of five seconds or something because as I looked up to John, he was already stomping his cigarette on the pavement with his feet.

"Ya know, ya can stay with me and the lads for the night. Got a room and everything", John said, clasping his hands together in order to warm it.

"Oh no, I don't want to be a bother. And besides, I can walk to my house.... (Another awkward pause) just if I don't get kidnapped"

"Tsk! The boys must be asleep meaning they are half dead so they wouldn't know if you went", John grunted.

"Also I can't feel my thing now, you know", John continued, raising his left eyebrow.

"Was he always that attractive?", I thought to myself, inside my head of course.

"Nancy, it's fucking cold. I can't feel me-"

"Yeah yeah, let's go! I shall go!", I cried and marched along. I am certain I heard a light chuckle from John as he followed me from behind.

*A/N:

Ah here goes my second chapter. This is going to be a pretty long story so hold on!! And already guessing who she is going to end up with?? No! Well then, show some love and appreciation my laddies!!!

Peace and Love.. 💞💓💕💗

**Also quick suggestion! If you read the entire chapter with the voice of Bridget Jones in your head, you would probably enjoy the chapter more. This chapter was written with her in mind. And say if you hadn't seen the movie, then you might as well read it normally. (Wow what an idea!)
