Days and Days

It's been days and weeks and I feel like I can't even survive one more day. It's been THAT long and he still... I don't even know. He's still harsh. It's the end of the day so I go back to my house with my two best friends. Sadie and Riley. I walk into the apartment being stressed. "Another problem at the office?" Riley asks. "Yes, as always..." I say. "You've been Down this whole month. I think we need our annual Girls night out!" Sadie says. "Yes! Perfect!" Riley Says. They both then look at me with the peer pressure look on their eyes. "Fine..." I say. We all then dress up and go to a pretty big club.

We arrive and they party. I statching them dance and mingle. "Yo, wanna have some fun tonight?" Some guy says. "Oh, no I'm fine..." I say. "Oh don't be a buzzkill" He says as he grabs me. "Don't touch me!" I say pushing him away. He still tries to continue attempting to take me. "Leave the lady alone." I hear someone say. I look at that someone and it's Mr.Walker. "Why should I listen to you?" The man says. "Because I own this place and if you don't get out this instant I may have to have security to escort you instead." Mr.Walker says. The man scoffs and walks away. "Are you ok?" He asks. "Yes, I'm fine..." I say. "I'm surprised you're here on a working night. You shouldn't be here alone either." He says. I look around for my friends and it seems that they had probably ditched me. "If I can't be here why are you?" I ask. "Like I said, I own the place and I just wanted to check up on it. I'm also glad I came cause he probably could've done more harm." He says. "I'm surprised you care. After your attitude at work..." I say. "Work me and personal me are different. I need to be professional and productive at work if I need to succeed and so do you." He says. I look aside, not knowing what to say. "Hi, I'm Eric Walker." He says. "I already know your name..." I say. "I know, but we should start over." He says. "Elle Skylar. Nice to meet you." I say. We both laugh and start talking. I guess I just misjudged him...

-Eric's P.O.V-

It's late and I don't think she has a ride home. "It's getting late. I should go" She says as she smiles at me. She's pretty, beautiful... I can't... I'm married, even though it's thoroughly early for a 28 year old. "Want me to drive you home?" I propose. "That'd be great... Thanks" She says. I take her in my car and set up but hesitate a bit. "Everything ok?" She asks. "Uh, Yes..." I Say. We then look at each other. We both come closer and closer. "I'm sorry, I can't do this..." She says. "Me neither, I'm so sorry..." I say. "You have a boyfriend?" I ask. "Yes, actually..." She says. "Look, I'm very sorry, my apologies." I say as I start driving. She gives me the directions and I take her home. "Thanks a ton." She says as she smiles at me and leaves. I then drive home.
