--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Stormy arrives at her apartment complex and as she is getting out of her car, she notices Toby hopping out of the elevator. She waves and yells to him, "Hey Toby, what are you up to?"
He notices her and waves. "Just heading to the shops to grab some food. What are your plans for tonight gorgeous?" Asks Toby.
Stormy twirls her hair as she reaches him, "Was going to have a quiet night in at home. Why's that?"
Toby smiles at her, "Interested in coming to my apartment for dinner?"
"Like a date?" Queries Stormy.
"Yes for a date. Are you interested?" Questions Toby.
Stormy tries to play it cool, "I guess I could come over for some food."
"See you at 6 then. Go down to the fourth level and it's the second apartment on the right" replies Toby, as he starts to head towards his car.
Stormy nods and heads for the elevator. Once in the elevator and on her way up, she thinks to herself: A date? Oh god, this is my first ever date. Normally I just skip that step and start sleeping with them. I have never had an actual first date or dinner with a guy. What am I going to wear? Maybe Tera will have a nice non-slutty dress in her wardrobe.
The elevator doors open up to her level and she heads out into the main hallway. All she can hear is loud music coming from one of the apartments. As she reaches her door, she realizes that the music is from her apartment and that Bailey will be dancing around the apartment like she does when she is alone.
Stormy opens up the front door and Bailey turns around to face her. The girls both giggle and Bailey goes back to dancing. Stormy places her bag on the island bench and goes over to dance with Bailey.
"How was work this morning?" Asks Bailey.
"It's a long story Bails," responds Stormy as she goes to get her sushi. Stormy takes a seat at the island bench and starts to eat her lunch.
"I have all afternoon to hear about your morning," says Bailey as she takes a piece of Stormys sushi.
"You asked for it," says Stormy.
"Lay it on me girly," responds Bailey.
"Let's see, I kissed my boss and then he kissed me back. I had to get out of there before I ripped his shirt off. And just as I arrived back here, Toby asks me out on a date. He is going to cook me dinner tonight. And I said yes. I never say yes to dates. You know me, I have never ever been on a date. What do I do?" Blurts Stormy.
"I think we need a few drinks, want one?" Asks Bailey as she heads to the fridge. Stormy shakes her head and Bailey just grabs out a drink for herself.
"So you want to know what to do about kissing your boss or for the date?" Questions Bailey.
"Both I guess. I don't know what to do anymore. I normally don't get myself into messes like this," replies Stormy as she eats some more sushi.
Bailey nods and replies, "Let's see, for starters quit your job. That way you can't kiss your boss again. But you could date him then. And on the other hand you could date Toby. So go on the date tonight. I think I have confused myself. Which guy do you like?"
Stormy laughs, "Hmm, I guess I like them both."
"You can only have one," responds Bailey.
"I know that, but I can't choose which one," says Stormy.
"My suggestion is date both of them and see which one you like more. Not going to hurt," responds Bailey.
Stormy shrugs, "That could work. What do I wear tonight?"
"Maybe a cute half top and ripped jeans? Or a mini skirt and cute blouse?"
Stormy stands up from the stool and remarks, "I will figure it out. Might go upstairs and see what I can find in my wardrobe. Thank for all your help Bails."
"What are best friends for."
Stormy smirks and heads upstairs to her room. Once in her room, she starts to chuck all of her clothes out of her wardrobe on to her bed. She finds a cute half top and her favorite ripped jeans at the bottom of the pile. She decides to quickly try them on and looks at herself in the mirror.
Stormy stares at her eyes in the mirror and thinks to herself: Where did I get my purple eyes from? Mum's are green and dad's are brown. I understand that Tera gets her green eye colour from mum but where do I get mine from?
Stormy has always wondered why she looks different from her parents, even though she is identical to her sister. She always feels like something is different about her. Tera always takes after their mother and everyone would always say she takes after their father, but in reality she has neither of their traits.
She is the odd sheep of the family, her powers' are destruction and she is always destroying everything since her 5th birthday. The girls' powers' came into effect on their 5th birthday and they gradually have been getting stronger as they get older. Over the last three months, since the day of the accident and her 18th birthday, her powers' have been harder to keep into check.
Especially the last two days. She always knew that her powers' would be the strongest they ever will be after her 18th birthday but she doesn't expect them to be this bad and destroy things more than normal. She taught herself over the years how to control her destruction. But the last three months, she has lost any control over her powers. Stormy never knows when they are going to come into effect.
Stormy decides on wearing her cute half top and favorite jeans. She looks at her phone and notices that time is 4pm. She takes off her outfit and hops in the shower. While Stormy starts to get ready for her date, Tera is getting ready to finish work for the day.
Tera has been busy all day chasing up Mr. Harvard's case documents for his court case next week. She has been looking forward to finishing all day, so she could go home and get ready for drinks with Oscar.
Tera was tiding up her desk when her desks phone rings. She picks it up and says, "Mr. Harvard's assistant, Tera speaking." She rests the phone on her shoulder as she continues to stack up the documents on her desk.
"Tera darling, it's Michael. Are you able to stay back late tonight with me and help me with my case that I have tomorrow," Asks Mr. Harvard.
Tera frowns, "I have a date tonight. I would feel bad cancelling on him."
Mr. Harvard coughs, "I'm sure if you told him that you had work, that he would understand. You could always reschedule the date. Please Tera I really need your help."
Tera sighs, "Okay, I will stay back late. Can you just give me twenty minutes to go and break the news to my date that I have to cancel tonight."
"You have twenty minutes, could you also go and order us some Chinese for dinner," replies Mr. Harvard as he hangs up the phone.
Tera pouts and leaves her office to see if she can catch Oscar before he leaves work. As she walks towards the mailroom, she sends Stormy and Bailey a quick text saying: Hey girls, wont be home until late tonight. Boss has me staying back late to help him with his case for tomorrow.
She gets a quick reply from Stormy saying: That's okay Tera, I have a date tonight with Toby anyways.
Tera smiles at her sisters text and walks into the mailroom. She finds Oscar putting his bag over his shoulder and he smiles when he notices her.
"What do I owe this visit?" Asks Oscar as he walks over to Tera.
Tera looks at him, "I have to tell you something."
Oscar looks at her and turns his head to the side. "What do you have to tell me that couldn't wait until our date tonight?" Questions Oscar.
Tera looks down to avoid his eye contact, "I have to cancel for tonight. Mr. Harvard has just asked me to stay back late to help him."
"Are you kidding me? He always pulls this shit with his new assistants."
"What are you talking about?" Queries Tera.
"He always makes his assistants stay back late with him. Stay back late with him if you want. You are going to miss out on a really good dinner. Be careful tonight Tera," as he pushes past her.
Tera watches as Oscar walks away from her and she starts to frown. She walks back to her office and searches her draws to see if there were any Chinese Restaurant Take-away menus. Tera finds one at the bottom of the last draw alongside an Indian and Thai takeaway menu. She picks up the Chinese menu and takes it with her to Mr. Harvard's office.
Tera knocks on his door and he opens it up. She notices that he has taken his jacket and tie off. He has also undone a few of his shirt buttons; he looks quite attractive like this.
"That was quick Tera, I hope your date was understanding," says Mr. Harvard as he opens the door more.
Tera forces a smile, "He wasn't understanding at all but I can deal with that later. Could you please choose what you want from the Chinese restaurant?"
As she hands him the takeaway menu, he ushers for her to come into his office and he closes the door behind her.
Tera takes a seat in front of his desk and watches him sit in front of her leaning on his desk.
"You can order whatever you feel like. I eat anything from there," replies Mr. Harvard as he puts his hand out with the takeaway menu.
Tera takes the takeaway menu from him, "Okay, I will just go back to my office to order it now. Do you need the case documents that are on my desk?"
Mr. Harvard nods and walks around to his seat. Tera gets up and leaves his office to order the Chinese food.
Mr. Harvard makes a phone call while Tera is busy calling the Chinese Restaurant. He says on the phone, "Miranda darling, I have to work back late tonight. My new assistant destroyed all my documents for tomorrows case so I have to try and amend them as best as I can. I love you honey."
The lady on the other end of the phone replies, "You work too much honey, want me to come and give you a hand?"
Mr. Harvard shakes his head, "No honey, its okay. I will be home before 9 if I do this myself. Can you give Amy a kiss on the forehead when you put her to bed? I will see you when I get home my beautiful wife." He hangs up the phone and walks out of his office.
Tera just finishes ordering the Chinese when Mr. Harvard walks into her office. She turns around and smiles at him.
"All ordered, they said it should be delivered with in the next hour," chirps Tera.
Mr. Harvard smiles, "That's good. We have plenty of time before it will get here."
Tera stares at him and nods. "I will just take these into your office for you," as she picks up the first pile of documents.
"Thank you Miss Montgomery, I will open the door for you," says Mr. Harvard as he holds open the door for her. As she walks past him through the door into his office, he smacks her on the bottom and she turns around to look at him.
She stares at him with a red face, "Did you just smack my bottom?"
Mr. Harvard grins, "Sorry my hand slipped, won't happen again."
"Mr. Harvard, I think it would be best if you stayed in here while I bring the rest of the documents in here. That way your hand can't slip again," says Tera as she places the first pile of documents on to his desk.
Mr. Harvard looks at her, "If that is what you want."
Tera nods and Mr. Harvard takes a seat back at his desk. Once out of his office, Tera shakes her head and thinks: I should go home now. Before anything else happens. I can't believe he just smacked my bottom. Does he not realize that is inappropriate to do to an employee? Was that why Oscar sort of had a go about him keeping me back late? I need to talk to Oscar about his former assistants.
Tera grabs the last pile of documents and goes back into his office. She places the documents on his desk and starts to head out of the office.
"Where are you going? I need you to help me go through these documents," says Mr. Harvard.
Tera turns around, "Can I just go and grab a drink from the staff room?"
"Sure but hurry back, we need to be finished before nine," replies Mr. Harvard.
Tera nods and hurries out of his office. She grabs her phone on the way out of her office and dials Oscars number.
"Answer Oscar," says Tera, as her phone rings. She quickly walks to the staff room so that Mr. Harvard can't see her on her phone. Oscar ignores her call and sends it to voicemail, Tera leaves him message saying: Hey Oscar, it's Tera. Can you call me back? It's about Mr Harvard. She hangs up the phone and grabs a bottle of water out of the fridge.
Tera heads back into Mr. Harvard's office and asks, "What am I looking for in these documents?"
"Take a seat. Go through the files and see if you can find anything that relates to the Taylor Case," says Mr. Harvard as he looks up from the document he is reading.
Tera takes a seat and starts to comb through the documents. She makes two piles, one pile for anything that relates to the Taylor case and the other pile for things that don't relate. She notices Mr. Harvard always stealing a few glances at her when he thinks she is not watching. She bites her lip and sighs.
Half an hour goes by and they are only halfway through the first pile when they hear a knock on the front door. "That's probably the Chinese. I will be right back," says Mr. Harvard as he gets up to go pay for the Chinese. While he is gone, Tera unbuttons one of her blouse buttons and lets her hair down. She continues to read through the documents until her phone vibrates.
It's a message from Oscar saying: Told you to be careful with him. Call me when you leave there and I will tell you everything. She smiles and puts her phone back under her leg.
Mr. Harvard walks back in with the Chinese food and says, "Take a break darling and eat some food."
He grabs one of the boxes and takes a seat on his couch. Tera hops up and decides to join him on the couch to eat her Chinese. She tries to use the chopsticks but fails. Mr. Harvard laughs at her and offers her fork.
"Its much easier to eat it with a fork. Makes less mess," says Mr. Harvard.
Tera giggles, "You are probably right."
She takes the fork from and places the chopstick back on the little table.
Tera starts to eat her Chinese much easier with the fork. She looks up at Mr. Harvard and he laughs at her.
"What are you laughing about Mr. Harvard?" Asks Tera.
"Call me Michael," replies Michael.
"Okay Michael, what is so funny?" Queries Tera.
"You have something on your face," as he uses his thumb to wipe it away from her lip.
She smiles as he touches her face, "Thank you Michael."
"You are welcome Tera," says Michael.
She smiles and gazes into his big brown eyes. He still has his thumb near her lip; as he leans in towards her. Her breath quickens and her heart starts to race. Michael looks into her perfect green eyes as he leans closer to her soft lips. His lips press hard against hers as he cups her face in his hand.
