My Boss's Son - Chapter 9
Delaney needs help.
Delaney's Point of View
I'm so stupid! I can't help but feel a slut for what happened that night! It's so unlike me, and also, Chris is my boss's son so I should maybe stop things - make it clear to Chris that nothing can ever happen. He's so sweet though, and kind, not to mention hot. Talking of Chris, he said he was going to work today.
"S'up Caleb." I said casually as I came to a halt on my skateboard.
"DJ!" He enthused, clapping my hand. Caleb is Alisha's brother, she sometimes meets up with him at 'The Fox and Moon' pub, in which Caleb was stood outside smoking a cigarette. "On your way to work?"
"Yeah, skived off this couple of days." I replied guiltily.
"I'm meant to be at work right now." He laughed. "Can't be arsed!"
"You seen any of the gang recently?" I asked.
"Nah... last time I've seen them was at the comp." He replied shaking his head and taking a swig of his beer.
"Same." I said.
We were talking about the skater dudes. Me and Caleb used to hang with them at the skate park, and hold competitions and stuff - this was back when me and Caleb were dating.
"You knows, we should, like, go back there sometime. I feel a bit guilty, you know. Ever since we split, on that night of the comp we haven't been back to see them all."
"Yeah, we should. How about Saturday night? I heard there are gonna be a head to head against Bancroft and Moltgrove."
"Mint, I'll try to find you there." He smiled. "It was good to see ya."
"You too." I smiled.
We were talking about the two skate parks. The skaters from Moltgrove were against the dude's from Bancroft (the park where I used to hang). Ever since I started working at Louisianna's, I haven't been able to go back because of the dodgy shifts.
"Hiya, Linda, sorry I'm late." I said hanging up my coat and walking into the kitchen.
"Seriously, where have you been?" She said quietly, a sad look on her face.
"I've had some problems..." I muttered.
"Delaney, Mrs. Carney's already replaced you." She whispered. My face dropped.
"And a bloody good job I did!" Mrs Carney squawked from behind. "Lillian is a great waitress, who actually turns up to work!"
"Mrs. Carney, it's only been a couple of days, you can't just fire me! Your grandson is living with me for Gods sake, if you fire me, I can throw him out."
"Oh sweetheart. You're already fired!"
"But you're not in charge!" I defended.
"I am now, Tim isn't coming back and Chris isn't even here!"
Chris's Point of View
"I can't do it. I can't do it anymore Derek. She's not even a bad person." I said with a lowered voice down the phone.
"You have to. I have the money for you right here." Derek growled.
"I don't care about the money." I said, before hanging up on him. There. Now I could be with Delaney for a reason. I like her a lot. I'm gonna take things slow at first, and this time get to know her - no strings attached.
Delaney's Point of View
Later that night, there was a knock at the door. It wasn't Alisha because she was at work. Chris left me a message saying he was going somewhere to 'sort things out', so I was hoping it was Harry.
I put down the large tub of ice-cream and slowly went to open the door. Everything went black.
When I woke up, I was in what looked like some kind of cellar. I tried to move, but I couldn't. I was tied up to a chair. I couldn't speak either, so I was screaming but no voice was coming out. It was cold and dark and I was panicking, breathing short breaths.
"Awake are we?" Said a dark voice, echoing. I turned my head, but couldn't see anything. "I bet you don't like it here, do you?"
The voice was familiar, like I'd heard it before.
"I bet you regret humiliating me now." Said the voice, as a dark figure came out of the shadows.
The boy from the restaurant.
