A hybrids revenge and her mates

Chapter 2 the apartment

I sat at the park enjoying my coffee for bit sitting under a tree. I watched while parents with their children played and others walked their dogs. I couldn’t help but wonder if my parents use to take me to the park. If we had any pets, Jasmine always did her best to make sure I felt loved but she was old and couldn’t keep up with my energy so we rarely went to the park. I laid under the tree for a bit and must have fallen asleep because the alarm on my watch started to go off, it was 230 already and time to go see the apartment. I arrived at the apartment just a little before 3, it wasn’t an apartment building it was a house. A very expensive looking house and already I regretted showing up here. Who ever the owner was would probably take one look at me a homeless women with ripped up clothes and turn me away.

“Hello” a strange voice said from behind me I jumped a little before turning around to see him. Gosh he was handsome, dark hair green eyes well sculpted face.

“Hi, I’m summer. I’m here to look at the apartment” I suddenly felt really shy and embarrassed by my appearance. I was wearing my black hoodie that had a few holes in the cuffs and my best jeans. By best I meant the ones with the least amount of wear n tear. All my clothes were hand downs from donations made to the shelter. My bright red hair was tied up in a knot, and I want wearing any make up.

“Follow me this way summer, I’m Blake by the way. It’s nice to meet you” he started walking towards a path that lead beside the house. I followed quietly, I could see by the way the material on his shirt stretched that he was very fit and there was a small tattoo that peaked out on the back of his neck from under his shirt. I wonder what he would look like with his shirt off, I bet he would look amazing. He smelled amazing, better then an man I’ve ever been around before. Not that there was many of them anyways. I wonder if he had a girlfriend.

“Like what you see” he said as if almost reading my mind snapping me away from my thoughts and suddenly I was embarrassed and blushing.

“Uh yea … looks great” I mumbled Turing red.

“The house was redone a few years ago before I bought it. Wait till you see the inside” I instantly felt so stupid, I thought he caught me checking him out. I bit my lip and blushed even more.

“Right this way” he opened a black door just at the end of the path to the apartment and It was breath taking, there was a huge modern kitchen with a big open space beside. Dark cherry coloured floors covered the entirety of the place. There was a fire place to the left and a huge bay window to the right of the room that looked out on to the front yard with gold n black curtains tied to the sides. I must have just stood there staring for a while because Blake said

“Feel free to look around, the application is on the counter and I’ll be right out side of you have any questions”

“Thank you” I said and walked into the big open space. Once I was on the other side of the room on each side of the fire place was a door. I opened the first one and it was a huge walk in closet, Could even be considered a bedroom if there was a window. The second door lead to a beautiful bathroom, with a stand up shower and beside it a claw foot style tub. The mirror above the sink had the fancy alights all around it with gold trim on everything. I was instantly in love with the apartment but refused to let myself get attached as I likely wouldn’t be accepted. After I finished filling out the application I went out side to find Blake. He was leaning up against the fence, damn he looked so good.

“Here’s the application, I have a few of my last pay stubs with me, I uhh don’t really have a lot of references but I put a few co workers Down for you.”

“Is this your first apartment” he said

“Yea it is, but I promise I’ll always be on time with my rent payments, I don’t have any friends so you don’t have to worry about me being loud or having a bunch of people over. I don’t have a boy friend either.”why would I say that. I covered my face with my hands and took a deep breath. “I know I don’t look like much but it would mean the world to me if you would consider renting to some one like me” before I could word vomit anything else and make it worse he said

“Why wouldn’t I rent to someone like you? You seem very well mannered and responsible. I’ll look over your application and get back to you with in the next few days. I’m assuming you have first months rent ready if you are approved?”

“Yes I do, I could even pay an extra month in advance, thank you for taking the time to meet me today.” And with that I shook his hand and left. I swear when I shook his hand it felt like electricity ran threw my entire body. Maybe I was more attracted to him then I thought and just brushed it off. I grabbed some dinner on my way home and dreamed about how amazing it would be if I could live there.

A few days had gone by and I was starting to get nervous that I wouldn’t get the apartment, like many others i applied to I never got a call back. I wasn’t going to let that get me down though today was my birthday, I was finally 18 and even if jasmine wasn’t here to give me my cupcake this year and I had to work I was still going to enjoy it.

BUZZZZ BUZZZZZZ “hello”

“Hi summer it’s Blake, sorry it took me so long to get back to you. Would you still be interested in the apartment?” I squealed “yes I’d love it” he chuckled “I don’t think I’ve ever had a tenant be so excited before. If you want we could meet now and I’ll take first months payment and we can sign some papers.”

“I’m not off work for another few hours. Would 6 pm be okay” I asked hoping it wouldn’t change his mind. “It’s a date, I’ll see you at the apartment at 6” he said.
