Sun had shown, screaming the start of the day. Most of the people in the city were out of their houses, going at their works and children going to school. There was hustle bustle all around like a normal day.

Pretty normal right?

Nah! There was Bella who was still in her bed covered with bedsheet and snoring heavily. Varonica was calling her from downstairs while preparing breakfast but after getting frustrated of calling out her name for like thousands times, she went up stairs.

Varonica turned the knob and the door opened smoothly without any creaking sound. She palmed her face at the sight. Bella's room was in a complete mess.

Popcorns were all over her bed while the half eaten pizza was lying on the floor and Bella was on her bed, wrapped in the sheets and in deep sleep.

Splash!!

Varonica emptied the whole jag of water on Bella and put the now empty jug back at the bed side table. Bella's eyes widened and she hurriedly sat on the bed in Indian style with her eyes wide open and nose scrunched which Varonica chose to ignore and glared.

Bella was completely drenched in water. Even the water droplets were falling down from her hair. She glared at Varonica but she just chuckled raising Bella's temper even more.

" Varonica what was that?" Bella was already frustrated because of yesterday's night and now she was welcomed with this incredible start of the day.

Just great!

Varonica looked at Bella as if she was ghost but soon it was replaced with a smug smile and she waited for her to say something. She raised her invisible collar in self pride and winked at her.

" You should thank this incredible friend of yours Bella. " Varonica chided in a dramatic way.

" But exactly why?" Bella asked while standing up to take a towel.

" You were stinking like a sock, worn zillion times. " and she pinched her nose in disgust as to stop the bad ardour to reach her nose.

" haha.. Well that and also at least as you already have had a bath now you can change and go. Hurry. " added Varonica which made made Bella look at the clock right away.

" Shoot! I am getting late for my interview. Thanks Varonica. " and after saying it even before Varonica could reply back anything further, Bella pushed her out of the room.

" I love you. You are the best." Bella shouted before closing the the door.

" Yeah, now you will be doing the dinner dishes. " and Bella could imagine Varonica chuckling.

Bella had totally forgotten about her interview thing due to... Well she wasn't in a mood to reminisce all that what had happened yesterday so she dropped the topic there only and went inside the washroom after fetching cloths from her closet.

Bella came down stairs and took the toast which Varonica was about to eat. Varonica looked at her best friend with an open mouth while Bella just mumbled a sorry and a thank you before grabbing the keys of her scooter.

She rushed out of the house, started her scooter and zoomed away. She was driving hurriedly, on the way chanting prayers so that God will save her from getting thrown out of the company even before getting employed.

Ashton was still in his bed sleeping when his phone rang, with his eyes closed he moved towards the sound to reach for his mobile when his butt fell on the ground with a jerk.

" ouch... Hell man." he cursed while picking up the call.

" Good morning my sleeping beauty. I hope you have woken up and would be ready by now. Wait I am talking about Ashton - the - lazy - ass - Blair , the laziest snail in the world then how is that even possible.

Ashton , I am damn sure that you aren't ready. Leave being ready, I guess you haven't even left your bed till now. Right. Ashton will you say something. I swear... " and Ashton's ears started to bleed.

" Hey Peter. I will say something when you let me. You were so busy in ranting shit that you didn't even pause for me to reply. Did you even breathe in between. " Ashton said while rolling his eyes at his best friend.

" Hehehe.. Yeah man you are right. By the way now will you come out of your comfy bed and get ready. " Peter said from the other side.

" Errmm.. What do you mean by get out of your comfy bed and get ready. I am already on my way. " he pretended not to know what Peter was implying and lied through his teeth.

" Oh cool then reach. "

" Yeah, will meet you in 10 minutes. " Ashton said while dashing in the washroom.

He brushed his teeth and washed his face as fast he could. Coming out, he got changed into formals and went out of his flat. He stopped jingling his car keys when he reached near it and drove off.

Peter was waiting for Ashton to come. He was pacing back and forth while getting bored as he had nothing better to do. So he took out his mobile out and started playing game to kill his time. As he knew Ashton wasn't going to arrive any time sooner because he knew his best friend so well that he was sure Ashton wasn't ready when he had called him.

It was tall building covered with glass windows. Wide stairs at the entrance and the building was illuminating under the sun rays. Bella was stunned and instantly liked the the place.

" Cupid." Bella read the glittering board which was at the top of the building.

She inhaled few sharp breaths to calm her excited heart which was jumping and was all set to come out of her ribcage in joy. But she was nervous too at the same time. Giving herself some strength. Bella walked to the entrance and the guard opened the huge glass gates for her.

If exterior of the building was amazing then the interior was superb. Bella looked here and there and finally found reception. A girl wearing spectacles in her mid twenties was working on a computer and she looked at Bella as she approached her.

" I am Sally. How can I help you?" she asked politely.

" Umm.. Actually I am here for an interview so could you tell me which way to go?" Bella requested to which girl smiled in assurance.

" Interviews must have started you need to hurry. Fifth floor at meeting Hall. " and Bella went to find elevator after thanking Sally.

Bella managed to find elevator and got inside. Pressing the fifth button she rested her head by the wall of elevator and sighed. Luckily there was no one in there to see how much worried she was about the interview.

The numbers in neon red color on the digital screen of elevator were changing and lastly it showed fifth floor. Bella came out of the elevator. She ran nervously with her trembling feet till the meeting hall.

She was fiddling her fingers in excitement and fear, she knew behind that door a lot of other people were there like her who had come for the interview. She took a deep breath and was about to open the door when she felt someone's presence behind her.

That familiar musk perfume filled her nostrils. And Bella's heartbeat raced rapidly, she felt the hot breaths at the nap of her neck and the shiver ran through her spine, giving her goosebumps.

She didn't need to turn around to know who the person was as she knew there had always been this one person who had such an effect on her body and that familiar fragrance but still she was hoping for herself to be wrong.

" Hello Miss Evans." and her hopes came crashing down when she heard the voice.

It was him. It was Ashton Blair.
