Chapter 5
AN// I had to update again today lol! I really love writing this!!:D -Meg
"Here you go." Mr. Wu says handing me an earpiece like the one I had on at Mr. Vin's party.
"I'll have the manager for your department come and show you around and show you what to do." He tells me.
I sit in his office awkwardly as I wait for said manager to come and get me to show me around. Ten minutes have passed and I still anxiously wait for this so called "manager" to come.
What could be taking her so long? Well I don't really know if it's a girl or guy, I was just suspect it to be a woman.
"Sorry it took me so long, a woman asked me to help her take her things to her room." A male voice booms through the small room.
"It's alright, Sehun, anyways, this is Luhan, show him around and show him the kinds of things he need to do. Luhan, Sehun will be your boss." He says before we nod and leave the room.
The same blonde man from the other night is now leading me into an elevator as he explains the things I have to do during the day.
I don't think he remember me though. I feel kind of embarrassed because I gave him one of those "I remember you" smiles but he didn't seem to know who I was.
"I'm Sehun, I'm the manager for this department. When a guest needs something it's your job to get whatever they want. Sometimes depending on the day you will either clean, wash laundry, help guests, or help with luggage but only if all of the bellhops are busy. There are others doing the same job so you might not be called to do that but only time will tell." He says as we go down to the basement.
"This is where we wash bed sheets, bath towels, blanks, and all that stuff." He shows me where the soap is and how much to put in it before taking me back upstairs to show me around.
"The first level, has rooms 58-102, the next has 104- 163."
Why are the numbers so weird? I mean the numbers aren't weird but there is like no easy pattern about them and he skipped room numbers.
By the time he's done he's still just as serious as when we started. I don't think I have even seen him smile once this whole time. It looks like he just has no emotions at all, but something about him seems so interesting to me. Maybe it's his brown eyes that almost seem black until light shines on them making them look like a light brown.
"So you got it?" He asks.
"Yeah, so... Where should I start?"
"You can take the rest of the day off, come in tomorrow around eight and then you can get started." He says looking past me.
I don't know if I want to turn around to see what he is looking at or not because whatever or whoever it was seemed to spark something making him seem more alive and less like a zombie. A small smile creeps onto his face and I can tell that I'm just in the way of whatever is happening.
I get into one of the elevators and right as the door closes I hear a girls laugh. Probably his girlfriend or something.
When I arrive back at my home I'm slightly sad about my "boss" being straight, but it happens a lot I guess.
I take off my uniform and get into the shower, turning the hot water on. I stay in the shower for probably an hour, way longer than I should have considering how much of the dark red dye came out of my hair. The water stayed hot the whole time and I couldn't help but want to stay in longer. I had gotten my hair dyed back to the dark red yesterday and cut shorter, maybe that's why he didn't notice me? I think to myself why he didn't and I know it shouldn't bug me.
When I get out I put a pair of jeans and a sweater on before getting my wallet and key and leave the apartment.
I saw a small sandwich shop a couple blocks away when Baekhyun was driving me here and I wanted to check it out. It's five already and that sound pretty good right now. I need to get a car next so I can go grocery shopping. I know it sounds stupid but I don't want to have to call a cab to come get me and have to load and unload all of them.
I'm going to have to either way but it just seems better to me. Also I would be able to drive myself to work and I would prefer to do that than walk.
I take my food home with me and sit down on the white couch with it and watch tv. It seems like the past week has gone by so quickly for me. Just last Thursday I was a slave to an asshole and now I'm working at a pretty nice hotel. One of the best hotels there is here.
I decide go to bed around nine thirty tonight so I won't be tired tomorrow for my first actual day of work. I set the alarm clock that's next to my bed on for seven before falling asleep. It was a deep sleep, the type of sleep when you don't remember your dreams or even falling asleep.
My alarm clock begins beeping and I roll over to shut it off before rubbing my eyes and get up.
I've always been good about getting up when I'm supposed to instead of setting the snooze button on and going back to sleep for a few extra minutes.
I take a shower then put my uniform on. It's similar to the valet but a black vest instead of red and a tie instead of a bow tie. I think it makes me look a little weird, but I have to wear it.
When I get there I go to the break room to get my earpiece from the small locker I was given to put my wallet or jacket and things like that in. I grab it before putting my wallet and key in there and shut it.
"Hey, did you used to work for Mr. Vin?" A voice from behind me asks.
"Yeah." I say turning around to see Suho, the guy who gave me the card to come here.
"I thought I recognized you." He smiles at me, "I'm glad you decide to join us. You're going to love it here, Mr. Wu is a way better boss then Mr. Vin." He chuckles.
"I know, I haven't even been here long and I can already tell."
"Well, if you need anything feel free to ask me. I know this place like the back of my hand." He smiles before leaving to go upstairs.
Well at least one of them remembered me, I have a pretty good memory when it comes to names and faces so when I remember someone who doesn't remember me it's a little embarrassing.
"Luhan, can you bring three bath towels to room 245?" A voice say through the earpiece.
"Yes, sir." I say before grabbing the folded towels and getting into one of the elevators.
The day seems to fly by quickly and already have a few of the levels memorized. The staff here is very welcoming too, all of the ones I ran into stopped to talk to me. I liked that a lot, it made me feel like I made the right decision about coming here.
Sehun had given me orders to get some of the bed sheets and wash them so I get into the employee elevator and go down to the basement. When I get there no one's there, I never knew it could be this quite somewhere.
I put the gloves and apron we are required to wear on before starting up the washers. I put three loads in before taking the gloves and apron off and go to put the soap back in the cupboard.
"What are you doing?" I hear behind me startling me into making a weird noise like a dog being kicked.
I quickly turn to see Sehun looking down at me, with his normal, serious, look on his face.
"Uh, I- I, was putting the soap back." I stutter.
He moves to stand directly in front of me as my heart races. He lifts his hands up behind my head with his neck close to my face as I feel my cheeks heat up. I can smell his sweet cologne, I begin to wonder what it is, but I'm even more curious as to why he is so close to me.
"You didn't put the lid on all the way. If it falls it'll spill." He says looking down at me once more before taking a step back.
My heart seems to be beating so loud I'm afraid he's going to be able to hear it.
"Are you alright?" He says as he cocks an eyebrow at me with a small, barely noticable smirk on his lips. "You look a bit red. Do you need me to get you a glass of water?" He says as his small smirk grows.
"N-no, no, I'm fine." I say quickly looking away.
"Anyways," he says clearing his throat, going back to his serious demeanor, "you did really good today, Luhan. Come in same time tomorrow." He says before turning and walking away.
Was he just flirting with me? No, I'm just reading that wrong or something. He is straight, isn't he?
AN// Sorry about skipping his other day off, I just really wanted to get Sehun into this chapter! I hope you guys liked it!! -Meg
