Chapter 3 SOMEONE IN SUPERMARKET

  • Selena Ryder' Point of View:
  • I left Arthur Corp with a huge grin on my face. I can't believe that I got the job. What is even more unbelievable is that I thought the CEO was some wise old man. Oh, how wrong I was. Arthur Cony was far from old, he looked to be in his late twenties, and I must admit he was ridiculously good looking. His pitch-black hair and beautiful blue eyes attracted my attention the second I walked into the room. I would say that he was a very eligible bachelor, but his arrogant attitude was not something that I wanted to put up with. I don't even think that he had any interest in me, at least that's what I gathered from his indifferent attitude towards me.
  • With a deep sigh I banished him to the back of my mind. I picked up my stride and made my way to the supermarket around the corner from where I lived. Since it's a Friday and I'm not expected at work until Monday it'd be nice to surprise Callista with a night out to the club. I'm not a big fan of clubs but for the first time in a long time I have something to celebrate and I have lots of energy and feel like dancing.
  • I smiled brightly at the security guard as he held open the door for me. I grabbed a basket and made my way down the aisle. I picked up a box of milk, some cereal, bacon and a chilled bottle of cheap white champagne. I went on the aisle with the different types of bread and went to get mine and Callista's favourite. I looked all around on the lower shelves, but it was nowhere to be found. I finally looked up and there it was on the very top shelf. A groan escaped me as I tried to reach it but to no avail, it was out of reach. Setting the basket on the ground I made a jump for it and luckily, I was able to grab the bread.
  • "Yes!" I shrieked in delight.
  • "That was quite an impressive jump." a deep voice behind me said.
  • I turned around quickly to find a handsome blonde staring at me with eyes full of amusement.
  • "H-hi." I mumbled feeling slightly embarrassed, "I didn't see you there."
  • "Yeah sorry about that, I saw you searching for the bread and when I saw you about to jump for the kill, I had to see how it would play out, wouldn't want you breaking your neck or anything like that."
  • "That's actually quite sweet." I stretched out my hand, "I'm Selena Ryder, what's your name?"
  • "Oh, I'm Bryan Cony but you can call me Bryan." He said as we shook hands.
  • We let go of each other's hand as I bent down to grab my shopping basket, "well it was nice meeting you." I was about to walk away when he called out to me.
  • "Are you free tonight?"
  • "I'm going to surprise my friend with a night out to a club."
  • "Ever heard of Club Electric?"
  • "Are you kidding me everyone who's anyone have heard of Club Electric?"
  • "Awesome, let's make it a fun night out, you can bring your friend and I'll bring my brother who happens to need to let loose a little."
  • "Are you sure we'd get in?"
  • "Don't worry about it." He said to me, "We'll get in, just be prepared to have some fun."
  • He glanced at his watch and groaned "I have to go but let's exchange numbers so that you can let me know when you arrive at the club"
  • After exchange numbers we said our goodbyes and I continued shopping. I made my way up to the cashier and payed for the groceries. I grabbed the bags and made my way to the apartment. I climbed the steps and entered the lobby of the apartment complex. Heading straight towards the elevator I pressed the button to open the elevator and stepped inside. When inside I pressed the button for our floor and waited. As soon as the elevator stopped, I was out and on my way to our door. Taking out my keys I pulled the door and went in closing the door behind me.
  • "Callista, I brought groceries!" I yelled hoping she heard me over the music that she was playing. She often played music whenever she was working on a painting. I knew where to find her, but I was just honestly too lazy to move.
  • I knew that she heard me when the music suddenly stopped.
  • "I'm on my way!" she yelled in return.
  • I pulled one of the many chocolates that I bought out off the bag and started unwrapping it. By time Callista walked into the kitchen I was halfway through with it.
  • "So?" she asked as she put everything where it was supposed to be.
  • "How was it?"
  • "I got the job!" I shrieked totally surprising her.
  • She smiled and clapped her hands in glee "that's amazing, we should definitely celebrate"
  • "I'm way ahead of you," I smirked "I was thinking we could go clubbing tonight"
  • "That's an awesome idea, which club?"
  • "Club Electric"
  • "Wow, are you sure we'll get in?"
  • "The guy who invited us, who may I say is totally your type, said we shouldn't worry about it"
  • "You met a guy?" she smiled from ear to ear.
  • "Yeah but I'm not interested, besides I think that you two could hit it off"
  • "Whatever you say," she laughed with a smirk on her face.
  • "Anyway, let's get our outfits ready!" she squealed with delight.
