Lord save me' my drug is my baby' I'll be using for the rest of my life. . . . Your pov : I headed to Caulfield, late, again. But I found myself more relaxed than other days, maybe because of an offering from him. The waitresses were waiting to laugh at me, little did they know their jokes would lure me to an opportunity. I sighed, pity them, all day hating on the weaker man to feel a little less insecure. "So! How was the meeting at Parker tower!" Charlene smiled, trying to hold those laughing inside of her empty heart. "It went fine, thanks." She laughed, then noticed I totally meant what I said. "Fine?" "Yeah, I've met him." "You've met him?" "Yes, he will give me the scholarship, so kind, Mr.Parker." "He will give you?" Dear lord, how many times will she keep repeating what I said. "Yes, Charlene. Thanks for your advice. Now, excuse me, I have work to do." I walked away from those girls, changed to my uniform, tied up this messy hair and started to work. I told Harrison, he was happy with me, but he didn't understand why Mr. Parker would give me all those opportunities, what can I tell him, I don't know either. I work very badly today, maybe because Peter Parker kept appearing in my head. His voice, the way he glanced at me, the hair, or even that hands on my waist that can make me stone cold as if that was his superpower. Work go on with Mr.Parker still. Finally, it's done, but he stuck in my mind to the house, to my bed, maybe he appeared in my dream too. . . . Parker's pov : I'm looking through (Y/n)'s personal background Karen dig up for me, trying to understand every little detail about her. I met her yesterday and she was the only thing I thought of. Who is this attractive, mysterious (Y/n)? Am I really pulling her into my life? I have to find all the answers and I am very looking forward to seeing her today. Nora set an appointment at eleven, I have a couple of hours until then. I cleared my work and found myself staring at the clock frequently. The phone rings, my private one. It was Tony, I picked it up, it's not going to be good news. [Peter, I really need help right now.] "What have you got yourself into? I thought you're on a vacation." [Pepper and I are trapped in a room with a time bomb can you believe that? These hydras are everywhere.] "You didn't bring your suit?" Because he was the one who taught me to never left the suit behind. [It's a vacation.] He groaned. [Here's the reason why I'm freaking out Pete. The first time I was near to the bomb, it had my last name on it.] "Yeah, you told me that story." [Well, this time, it has your name on it! I didn't just help you built a weapon company just to get killed by it, after a long war of Thanos I need a break.] How the f**k is those Hydra using weapons from my company, this is suspicious. [Well, get your ass here!] "I can't, I'll send my men, I'm having really important appointment." With a cute girl, she matters. [Can your men defuse the bomb?] Here's the problem, Grenade from my company cannot be defused by anyone, it has to be me, that's why people buy weapons from me, to make sure it will kill the enemy. I sighed, I want to see her, I can imagine her sad face right now, but I have to go. "Alright, I'll be there." . . . Your pov : I'm at the Parker tower, I think I dressed better than I did yesterday. Yet it felt as nervous as the first time was, I told the reception girl and she handed me the security pass. I arrived at 69th floor, the office seemed quiet. I tried to find someone, anyone, but this place is empty. "Ms.(L/n)." "Ah!" I flinched, I always flinch. It was Nora. "Oh, hey. I mean, hello. I'm here to see Mr.Parker." "I'm afraid he just left." "Left?" She nodded. "He flies to another country." I didn't know what to say, fly to another country? What about me? My internship and scholarship? It can't wait any longer. "Is there any way to get in touch...? "I'm his assistant still I can't contact him right now." Her phone rang. "Excuse me." She walked away, I was left with my thoughts. Again, right? I was tricked again. He just played with me. I should have known, there was no reason that he will give me that money because he was just lying. I walked out of the elevator with the mountain on my shoulder, all the problems came back and hit me. Well played Peter, now let's never see each other again. . . . I came to Caulfield, felt like there's nowhere else to go, so at least I should work. No one talks to me, what's odd? I can't act like I have friends. Charlene accidentally (intentionally) poured hot coffee on me, my hand was all red. I swear today can't get any worse. "What happened to your hand?" Harrison asked me, he saw me at the back. "Accident." Charlene's birth, I mean. "She did it again?" He rushed up to me, blew gently on my hand, he looked pissed. Harrison poured cold water onto my hand, I was too tired to stop him even though he's my boss. In fact, I trusted him enough to tell him exactly what happened. "No scholarship." "What?" "I don't think he will give me the money, we had an appointment today, he didn't show up. Didn't said anything." I sighed. "I told you I can give you the money, I have enough, I can spare some." "Even so I can't pay the hospital bills." And Jason. "It's okay, I'll figure something out." I won't, I knew I won't, this is the worst my life has ever been. Maybe if I hadn't known about Mr.Parker and his stupid internship, I wouldn't have those wishful thinking just to be sorry about it later. God, my body was shattered of tiredness, it's getting late now, about one or two hours I can return home, forget about Mr.Parker and his attractive charm and start all over tomorrow. "(Y/n)! You going to stay in the back forever?" Charlene yelled, I have to get to work now. I grabbed a menu and gave them to two guys at the table. Waited for them to pick their food then walked right back. "What do you want for today?" They started laughing, I didn't know why and didn't really let it bother me, they ordered regular dinner as I wrote it down the paper. "That's all right?" I asked, grabbed the menu back and turned around. It's like today is not bad enough, those guys grabbed my butt, I yelled in shock as I stepped back. They laughed at me. "Oh, C'mon, don't act like you don't like it." "Don't touch me!" I yelled, he tried to get even closer, I felt someone pulled be backward, in this situation it always been Harrison, but the grip felt different. I turned around to see Peter Parker. Yes, Peter freaking parker was in the freaking bar, he was wearing an unbuttoned shirt, with rolled up sleeves. "Mr.Parker?" I couldn't believe myself, is this another dream? Or did he really came here for me? --------------------
