Raura [ON HOLD]

I woke up the next day with tear stained eyes. And lucky for me Ness was already out of the room as usual. I got up and grabbed my uniform and toiletry bag. Since today is Friday we get allowed a late start. As long as we work the hours required. So basically the earlier you start, the earlier you finish and vice versa. I was the vice versa.

I decided I was going to take a shower to forget about last night. I went in the bathroom and it was almost empty. Weird. Only a few people were there and once I was in a stall I got the nerve to talk to them.

"Hey! ... Do you guys know where everyone is?" I asked.

"Don't you remember? The bosses' kids are arriving today. Everyone got up early to greet them. They should be here in about 20 minutes according to rumors." I heard a guy outside say.

"Thank you." Is all I said in return.

I thought about whether I should go "greet" the new bosses or not. I really didn't want to but I knew Ness would nag me about it later and I'd never hear the end of it. So I decided I rather meet a couple of snobs for 5 minutes to make my sister happy.

I finished my shower early, but not early enough. I had 5 minutes for the estimated arrival time of the snobs. I quickly dried off and put my uniform on. I brushed my hair and decided I'd put it up later.

It was already three minutes past the arrival time and I still had to put my stuff away. I sped off to my room and threw the stuff in there.

I then ran to the main living room where I was sure everyone would be. I entered the room, six minutes past arrival time. I suddenly saw a lot of eyes staring at me.

All, but six pairs of eyes were familiar to me. I assumed that those eyes belonged to the new bosses. None of the eyes interested me. Except one pair. The pair were hazel. And they belonged to a blonde boy. He was... beautiful. Messy hair, black shirt, ripped jeans, a necklace and bracelets reading R5 and black converse. He had a toned body. I could tell through his shirt. Yet... he still seemed delicate and gentle. We stared at each other for what felt like hours (and I wasn't complaining) when suddenly I felt a pull on my arm. I ripped my eyes of his and turned to person that pulled me. Ness.

"Laura where have you been?" She asked touching my wet hair.

"Showering." I smiled at her.

"Well you're very lucky. You almost missed this." She said pulling me into a line of employees that I apparently hadn't noticed before.

"Oh no. What a tragedy that would've been." I said sarcastically.

"Why the line?" I then asked.

"The new bosses are saying hi to their old employees and introducing themselves to their new ones (aka you and I.)" She said happily.

"Oh boy.." I said under my breath, annoyed.

Once we got closer to the front of the line, I could see the six new people perfectly.

The first three, two brunettes boys and and blonde girl were shaking hands with every employee.

The next three, were two blonde boys (including the one I had the weird stare thingy with) and a brunette one. They barely even looked at the employees, let alone shook their hands. . They just touched fingertips with the employees and rolled their eyes. Ugh, such asses!

Before I knew it, it was my turn to shake.

I started with the blonde girl. She smiled at me. "I'm Rydel" she said. I couldn't help but smile back, she seemed so nice.

"I'm Laura, at your service." Is all I said. We shook hands and moved on.

Next I shook the hand of a brown haired boy.

"Ellington Ratliff, Ma lady."

I laughed. "Laura."

After that, I came across another brunette.

"How's it going, Rocky." He said as we shook hands.

"Good, Laura." I said in return.

Then came the three snobs.

"Ryland." The first boy said, barely looking at me and not even shaking my hand.

I said nothing and moved on.

The next said, "Riker." And we touched fingertips.

Again, I said nothing.

Then the last boy came. The one I was thinking about the whole time. The blonde beautiful boy.

"Ross." He said, looking right into my eyes. His voice was sweet, like honey and even... sexy. He had to be the lead singer, I thought. Neither of us noticed at the time but, we were shaking hands. He shook my hand, not anyone else's.

"Hey, maid....! Wake up!" He said, suddenly with an unreadable face. He then snapped his fingers in my face. Jerk!

I said nothing and just walked away, not looking back.

Once I went around the corner, I uttered the name, "Ross" and melted onto the floor and covered my face.

No... waitUgh! He is such an asshole! Conceited and arrogant. He snapped his fingers in my face! Ugh!!!!

But.....why am I still feeling butterflies? Why do I not hate him? Why do I still think he's beautiful?....

"Stupid." I said, shaking the thoughts out of my head, and getting up. I had a house to clean.

After all.... According to Ross.... I am just a maid.
