I Could Get Used To This-(Tyson Ritter) chapter 10

“ I want everything to be perfect for the band arrival tomorrow,” Mr. Ray said eyeing every signal one of us.

We nod our heads in agreement.

“ OK good. Does anybody have a question?”

“ Yes I do sir. Which band will be coming?” I speak up.

“ Well that for me to know and that’s for you to find out” He said with amused look on his face.

Oh how he loves to keep us guessing.

Amy and I stood there alone at the front desk waiting for the celebrities. Mr. Ray got the rest of the employees running around preparing everything. This was the first time celebrities ever came to stay in this hotel. So I guess I understand what’s going through Mr. Ray right now. He’s like a mad man barking orders at everybody. He’s eyes get huge and his vein on his head gets big. We stood and laugh there watching everything that was happening. We didn’t even notice that the band already arrived

“ Excuse me miss we would like to check in” A voice that sound so familiar to me but I just couldn’t put my finger on it. Then the phone rang.

“ Just a sec” I said going over to the phone.

“ Amy can you take care of those guest over there.” I said not looking at them.

“ Hello Welcome to Holiday Inn. How may I help you?” I said playing with the cord of the phone.

“ Oh boy let me guess….” A strong and annoyed male voice said though the phone.

“ Oh hi Mr. Swell what made you calls the Hotel? No wait I know you’re going on a vacation and you need the perfect Hotel to stay at.” I said nervously. I know why he call I always know. I just want to avoid it for once in a while.

“ NO but if I do I would be going somewhere far far far away from your kids.” He yells. I have to hold the phone away from my ear to hear.

“ They went in your garden again didn’t they?” I said taking in a deep breath.

“ You think?” He said with a harsh tone.

“ I’m really sorry Mr. Swell. It won’t happen again I promise. I’m really sorry.” I said

“ That’s what you said yesterday Ms. Barton and the day before that and the day before that-”

“ I know I’m really sorry”

“ Stop apologizing and do something about it or I’ll call the police” He said and hung up.

That old man really doesn’t have a heart. The kids were just playing. There’s nothing harmful about that. Sure they step on his flowers and ruin his chance on winning the best garden award but still. Oh why do I have to move into a house next to the grumpy old man? I should have stayed in the apartment but oh no I didn’t. I’m such an idiot!

I was awakening from my thought by the squeaking of my dear friend Amy. Everybody turn to look at what or whom she was screaming about. And sure enough all the girls were also joining Amy. There stood in front of the desk 4 handsome men that I thought I would never see again. I was shock. I couldn’t move at all. The phone that I was about to hang up drop to the floor. That seems to make Tyson look up and in my direction.

He was about to come over where I was but girls throw themselves at him asking for autographs. Thank you crazy fans. I slowly sneak out of there and hid behind the cart that the bellboy was loading bags into. Phew save by the bell or should I say by screams. I glance at them and saw Tyson looking where I was before but then his face drop into a frown. He must have thought he saw me.

He looks so miserable I want nothing else but to kiss him and tell him I love him. I wouldn’t not now. He hasn’t change at all. Those same blue eyes still makes me weak and the same hair that always makes me want to touch them. The same lips that make me kiss him every second. Oh how I miss those lips. But something was missing. His smile the smile that makes me melts. It wasn’t there.

The cart move revealing me for all to see. I frozen and turn around facing away from them.

“ There you are Ms. Barton. I need you get into the maid outfit and come with me” Mr. Ray said walking to his office.

“ But sir I work in the front desk” I said following him.

“ I know. Two of the maids are in the hospital and I need you and Amy to fill in for them.” He said opening the door to his office.

“ But that’s only two maids sir. We have like a ton of maids here to work. Why do you need us to fill in?” I ask
“ Well those two maids happen to be the All-American Reject’s maid. And so you can see their not here.”

“ WHAT? But can’t the other maids fill in for them” I said. This is karma for not telling Tyson isn’t it?

“ NO! The job pays $200 per-day. All you have to do is do whatever they tell you to do.” He said pulling out the maids’ outfits and setting them in my arms.

I was shock. Was I hearing things or did he just say $200 per-day? But I wouldn’t take the job even though I really need it. I couldn’t face Tyson and the guys yet. I’m not ready. But it’ll help me pay for the classes I’m taking to be a doctor. I have to take that job. I just have to.

“ Ok sir I’ll take the job.” I said taking the maids outfit. I don’t want to argue with him I know I’ll lose my job if I did.

I told Amy the news and we head into the master suite to cater to the guys’ every need. This is going to be a nightmare. I just know it.

~Tyson Ritter P.O.V.~

I sat on the couch watching a movie with the guys. I wasn’t really watching it. I just couldn’t stop thinking that I saw Lauren. But I guess it’s just my mind playing games with me. There this feeling inside me that I did see her but I don’t know. We heard a knock on the door and all our heads turn towards the door.

“ I’ll get it!” Mike shout.

Mike rush to the door and open it. There stood two girls in their maid outfit. One was smiling and the other was looks like she was hiding her face. I couldn’t help but stare at her. She looks a lot like Lauren but it couldn’t be her, could it?

“ Come in ladies” Nick said who turn off the T.V.

They step inside and we introduce our self to them.

“ So you ladies name is?” Chris said.

“ Um I’m Amy,” the girl said who couldn’t stop smiling.

We turn our heads to the other girl her eyes not meeting ours. We wait for her answer. Everybody was getting impatient. Amy jab her elbow at her side and she jump.

“ What” she whispers. That voice… I know that voice.

“ Tell them your name!” her friend whisper back and smiling at us.

“ I don’t want to and I don’t have to” she said still whispering.

“ Fine then” she said. Her friend looks at us.

“ Her name is LAUREN!” she yells. We turn our heads to Lauren. We’re a bit taken back. Lauren froze not moving not making eye contact with us again. She slowly backs away and toward the door.

“ Lauren?” I said softly afraid that it might not be her. I stood up and walk toward her.

She stops and turns and looks at me. We both look into each other’s eyes. I knew it. It is Lauren. I have so much fixed emotion inside. I don’t know if I should kiss her, hug her, or be mad. I’m just glad that I found her at last.

“ Um Hi Tyson” she said with nervousness in her voice.
