The Day I won His Heart

She walked down the alley were the back of the restaurant was. She wasn't sure of the possibilitys that would be await at the back door of the restaurant.
She walked up to a door and knocked on the one that said "Directory Assisants Office".
She waited in the cold ,shivering with delight at the fact that the captain of the cheerleading club wanted to talk to her about something important.
She meet her in the hallway earlier and said she wanted to speak to Jess. She felt excited at what the cheerleader had to say. Maybe she wanted an interveiw?
"Who's it?"
"It's me, Jessica. You wanted to talk to me about something, we meet in the hall at school.
There was silence between the two girls as Penny, the cheerleader, began opening the door.
She had a bountiful smile on and a blush rose through her cheeks, " Im so glad you made it," she motioned Jessica inside then said," Do you know why I made you come here ?"
Jessica shook her head and gazed around trying to find a seat in this some what humble abode.
Penny must have read her mind cause she grabbed a chair for the two of them and they sat down.
" Don't worry I don't live here I'm just baby sitting for the Assistant who works here; her children are asleep."
Penny moved her lovely brown hair and started taking something out of a cute Gucci bag, and stared at the paper that looked all so familar to Jess.
She looked up at her with her green/hazel eyes then said,"Your a great writer."
" Thanks>" She shreiked, afriad that her shyness was to overwhelming.
She stared at Jess some more," Your hair and eyes are so lovely, if you just get alittle make up on those beautiful cheeks of yours, you would be more popular."
Penny did have a point Jessica had gorgeous black hair that went up to her chin with beautiful copper highlights,and her eyes were blue with excitement.
" Really, I mean, I'm popular at school?"
"With how good you write everyone knows you!" Penny set the paper down then looked at Jessica.
There was complete silence again. All you could here was the kids snoring, the faucet dripping and the stairs creaking every once in a while.
" I have a propsition for you Jessica. My daddy works with news reporters who are looking for 16 to 17 year olds as there assistants in any outburst story they make, and I was wondering if I could.... you know.... submit you."
Jessica stood there with excitement at the thought of working with real live reporters.
"What's in it for you?" Jessica back-stabbed.
Penny placed a hand on her own chest then said, " Wow a good writer and smart," she placed her hand down and looked at Jess with her puppy dog eyes. The ones that are like 'Please say yes, because I'm a spoiled rich girl and my daddy will get me something if you sign the contract'," Well....my daddy said if I get someone to fill in the format of this job the people would give him 100grand...and hesaid if I got a friend," emphisis on the friend," he would buy me a volvo."
Jess thought in her head, " I knew it was just for the sake of getting something in return," but she really wanted the format so how could she say no to such a job offer.
Jess got up and walked around with her small Ducui bag on her shoulder.
Pacing back and forth she finnaly thought of the answer,"Sure I'll take the propostion."
Penny jumped up for joy and recoiled her self the n said, "cool now all we need to do is for your parents to sign the contract so that your able to be equipped with the assingments that are bound to come your way."
She took a neat white paper from the rusted table then gave it to Jess;opened the door for her then said goodbye to the reply of a door shut in the face.
Jess was appaled at Penny's behavior,but it was what rich girls mainly did in North Carolina.

"So your scared to give the permission slip to your parents because you think they'll say no?" John countered as Jessica and him were walking the next day to school.
Jessica stopped in her tracks and look at John with eyes of fury, " John you've known me for 12 years, you know how my parents are there concieted, materialistic, and stuck- up. And the last thing they want their daughter to be is a reporter for the Wendell Daily News!"
John turned around and squinted in the distance," I'm sorry, I forgot. With your mom being a designer and your dad a lawyer, I would kind of see your point."
Jess's Parents are both high wealthed career individuals, her mother was the materialistic one while her father was the concieted one. Each of the parents had a "vision" that thier daughter would be something more than just a writer but a
doctor in medicine, and a fine one at that.
They continued walking and arrived at school being the first students there as usual. They looked around and saw no one in the reporting room so they quietly walked in and smelt the fresh air of clean papers and dusty computers.
Jess put her her backpack down then saw HUnter Matthews,working at a computer with circles around his eyes and cup of coffee an the side desk.
" Hunter what are you doing here?" John asked getting towards the computer Hunter was at and sat right next to him.
Hunter looked at JOhn then at Jess and gave her a smile. He rubbed his eyes and strecthed back really revealing his tanned stomach.
It made Jess shiver, so she just sat at her computer and purposly eavesdropped on what Hunter and John were talking about," Dude, I had to do a term paper in English and it counts for 3/4 my grade."
He glanced over to where Jess was and she felt his gaze on her.
She knew what was happening, Hunter would want her to help hihm with the term paper so he could get a solid A for English.
And just out of no where Jessica catches herself talking to Hunter, " I could help you if you want I'm pretty good on writing term papers, especially in English." She covered her mouth and stared at John then back at Hunter to his smile get evn bigger, and it did.
He nodded then got up grabbed his backpack and cup of coffee," Thanks Jessy, come to my house around 6:30 tommorow, okay?" he smiled and she inhaled to recooperate herself.
She nodded then he left the room.
Hunter was everygirls fantasy he had the tan of a lifetime and blond hair of purity. HIs dark green eyes were like poison that killed her inner being and made her think of naughty things to do to him.
She didn't know why she felt that way, but everygirl wanted him even Jess.

Later that day when Jess went home, and saw her dad hunched over a hard wooden desk and his pants were down.
When she walked closer she saw that he was on a women and that women was definitly not mom. There were a few giggles here and a few giggles there then finally a scream of intamicy.
She burst into the room then shouted," Dad! What in the hell are you doing?!"
He looked up and saw his daughter. He pulled up his pants then motioned the half naked girl out of the house,and hopefully out of his life.
He was readjusting his tie then coughed alittle in his throat."Please, sweetheart, don't tell your mother."
She was planning on doing tha but she had an idea," I won't tell mom," he sighed then returned to a desk on the far sid, "but you have to do something for me in return."
he turned around gave her a panicked look, " OK what is my sweet child."
She sat down on one of the chairs and began. She talked about Penny and the contract, she included that it would be a good oppurtunity for her.
He stared aghast at her, " YOu know how your mother and I feel about you being a repor-"
"Yeah, and you know how mom feels about you messing with girls half our age." she recoiled then sat back and placed her feet on the coffe table.
"Well don't you need both parents to sign it, your mother will never sign it for sure."
" Thats why you are going to persaude her,lawyer."Jess smiled and her father's face turned red like an apple.
"Fine."
She got up and said, "Deal!"
" Deal!" he stook his hand s out and she shook it.
She backed off and looked at her father disgustingly. She look at the shakened hand saw white goeey substances on it.
Her father shrugged and said, "Sorry sometimes sperm can't control itself."
She screamed and ran out the room and in to the bathrroom the down the hall.
