He gave her a weary smile back. He was new to town, and was a little sketchy of new people. A few times on his way to work he had gazed in at the shop, wondering if their coffee would be any good as the shop looked. The smell was relaxing and Alex almost forgot where he was until she spoke. Her movements were ones of practiced eased, although a little sluggish you knew she knew what she was doing. A glance at her name tag told him her name was Taylor. She was cute in that natural way a woman could be but his thought were driven away when he caught a glance at the clock, he was going to be really late.<br/><br/>Shoving his hand into his pocket he grabbed hold of his wallet, yanked it out and then fumbled around in it for the cash. Gave her the desired amount, took the coffee and said his thanks. If he hurried he would make it to work in no time. Taking sips here and there he made his way to the auto body shop. His mouth scorched a little but he would heal in no time.<br/><br/>It was rather easy for him to slip into the shop, or so he thought. The scent of his boss filled his nostrils as he was setting down his cup, and taking his jacket off. He turned on his heel and was looking into the forehead of his boss, who smelled like he hadn't taken a shower in two-weeks, cigarettes, motor oil, and moldy cheeseburgers. From the stench you would really think he had never bathed in his life. The man's brow was furrowed into one thick black line, his hands on his hips like a woman who caught her husband coming home late.<br/><br/>Alexander lowered his eyes so he was looking more at the mans face instead of his forehead and took a step back in sake of his poor sensitive nose. Worry of loosing his job crossed his mind then, and hoped to the wolf goddess that that was not happening to him. He needed this job to survive in the city, with out it he was out on the street and would probably move to another city like before.<br/><br/><span style="font-style: italic">"Alexander! This is the second time this week you've been late! Do you not know how to be on time! You are lucky to of gotten this job, if only I hadn't needed to return a favor to a friend you would never of been able to walk in those doors. Are you honestly going to step all over what your friend has done for you?!"</span><br/><br/>Ashamed he lowered his head slightly and shook his head, "I'm sorry, this won't happen again Oscar." Golden green orbs looked him in the eyes then, to add emphasis on what he was saying. Oscar simply nodded and turned back to his office, "<span style="font-style: italic">Get to work then.</span>" Alexander did just that.
