Chapter 7
You are about to press the button for the elevator when a hand pulls you back by your arm. Haz stands in front of you and hugs you. "I'm so sorry I don't have time for you, but you really don't need to work here" he says to you, looking into your eyes. "Haz I can't stay with you forever. What if you have a girlfriend and you just need togetherness? This can't go on" you say to him and hug him.
He presses you closer to him and puts his hand to a head and your back. "You are my little sister. I would do anything for you. I just want to protect you" he murmurs into your neck. "You don't need to protect me. I'm already a real Woman and I can decide for myself" as you say this you move away from him. "If you want to do this so badly I will support you, but please be careful. Tom is a player and I don't want him touching my little sister. I don't even recognize my own best friend anymore" he looks at the floor and then at your hands.
"This is the Tom? The Tom you've been friends with since you were little? Wow." You decide not to tell Haz that you've already been to bed with Tom. He would freak out and beat Tom up and you don't want your relationship to deteriorate either. He's your brother and you love that you can talk to him about anything. "I really have to go now, too. I still have appointments" he says to you and looks at you a bit sadly. "Will you be able to come home? So that we can talk again?" you ask him and just hope that he says "yes". "I'm so sorry sis, but I can't make it. But I will come back to you tonight and check on you." You just nod and realize that a tear is running down your cheek, but you immediately wipe it away.
"That's okay. I'm going to go then. Maybe I'll see you tomorrow" you press the button and look again at haz, who looks at you just as sadly. The elevator stops at your floor and you get on. You see Haz walking to his office. As the door is about to close, someone holds his hand between them. You look up and see that it is Tom. He looks at his documents while you just look at your hands. It's a silence you don't like very much. The music is the only thing drowning out this silence. "I told you, you always see each other twice in life" he says to you now, but still focused on his papers. "If Haz finds out about any of this you and I will have a problem Tom!" He finally looks away from his papers and looks at you "Sir" he says and then looks back down.
"What?" you now ask. "It's either sir or Mr. Holland. Just because I slept with you doesn't mean we will continue to know each other" he now says with a stern tone. You say back confidently though "who said I wanted to get to know you?" The door opens and you walk out. As you do so, you toss your hair back and notice Tom looking at you. You don't know how you suddenly feel so confident, but at that moment you are very proud of yourself. But inside you know that it will be really difficult to work with Tom. He is really good looking and there is something you like about him.
You just have to forget about him, you think to yourself, and head for your car. You are stopped, but by Mrs. Smith. "Were you taken?" she asks you and smiles at you "yes I was actually taken". She suddenly hugs you tightly. You have to smile at that because she is so happy. "I knew all along you would make it. By the way, I'm Amber" she introduces herself. You smile at her "my name is y/n" "if you want we can do something tonight, so only if you want". You immediately agree with her. You make up a time and place and then say goodbye to each other.
You get into your car and turn on some really loud music. You can't believe it all yet. You finally have a job and it pays well. When you arrive home, you quickly get changed and sit down at your window. It starts to rain. It is a typical autumn day. You think about what you can do until then. You're not meeting Amber for a few hours. You decide to change and make yourself some tea. After that, you sit back down and just listen to the rain. You are just happy right now. That Tom will soon turn your head like that, you didn't think at that moment.
