JESSICA
Scanning the items through my till, I sent a grateful
glance to my supervisor, who dropped a TILL
CLOSING sign on my conveyor belt. The little old lady
in front of me politely smiled as she opened her bag,
carefully placing her items in weight order.
“Is it almost home time?” She asked, her eyes crinkling
in the corners.

“It is, yes,
” I glanced at the digital clock on my till screen
that tells me I finished four minutes ago.
Carlisle would be waiting for me impatiently, no doubt. I
tallied the customer’s total, waiting as she counted her
money.
“Sorry dear, I know you’re ready to go. But honestly, I
have the exact amount here…” She fumbled in her purse, and
I told her not to worry.
Except I really did need to go.
Finally, she gave me the money, and I closed my till. I
tugged on my warm jacket and grabbed my gloves before
checking out with my supervisor, Janet.
“See you Sunday, Jessica,
” Janet gave me a thin smile
before fluffing her hair up.
Cue Eric, the new security guard.
Seriously?
He had to be twenty-five, and she must be four hundred
and five.
I left them to it, shooting Eric a sympathetic look as he
chuckled.
“Alright, Jessie?”
“Yeah, you? Just going, sorry,
” I breathed, skipping up
the escalators two at a time.
I had to go up three sets to the staff door and another two
flights of stairs to reach the lockers. By the time I reached it,
I was knackered, wishing I was a million times fitter than I
am. I dragged my bag out, grateful for the shorter shift
today.
Two days off now, and no college!
Woo!
“Hey,
” murmured a girl I recognised vaguely, and I
smiled as I passed her. “You leaving? God. I haven’t even
started my shift. Here till ten.”
“You have my sympathy, my friend.” I laughed, and she
grumbled in response.
I skipped down the stairs, pulling my phone out to see a
text from Carlisle.
CARLISLE
Baby, I’m not going to be able to pick you up. It’s Hunter’s
birthday, so we’re going to town tonight. I’ll see you
tomorrow, yeah? Love you, mush.
Oh, for fucks sake.
The bus it is, then.
I swiped through the rest of my messages, noting that
Ellie had texted me and called me twice. So I called her back,
wondering what I’m going to do with the rest of the
evening.
“Finally! Where the hell have you been?” I was greeted
with, and I snorted.
“Work?”
“Oh, I thought so. Are you done now? If you’re not with
Carlisle, I wondered if you wanted to come over for pizza and
wine?”
“I was meant to be,
” I sighed, checking the bus timetable
with my neon pink fingernail, pulling the phone away to
check the time. “But he’s out for some birthday.”
“What, and he’s only just told you?” Ellie demanded, and
I rolled my eyes.
It was common knowledge that Ellie couldn’t stand
Carlisle. She firmly believed that he was a player that
wouldn’t ever change—for me or anyone else. I had given up
trying to convince her
