Alex's POV

*beep beep* *beep beep*

Something was was going off in my room. It wasn't until I realized it was my alarm clock going off.
"Fuck!" I said loudly knowing I was now late for work. Not that I cared but I needed this job and if I was late once more I was gone.
I quickly pulled on a pair of black skinnies, my work shirt, my jacket put on my black vans picked my phone and iPod up and was out the door quickly.
I put on some music which would wake me up and get me moving.
I speed walked to work looked at the time and realized I only had 5 minutes left to get to work but I was 15 minutes away.
"Fuck!" I muttered to myself.
The bus just left so I couldn't get the bus.
Uggggh this was not my day.
Not only was I late I now have to run. I DONT do running.

By the time I forced myself to run I was nearly at the coffee shop. My boss was standing outside the shop.
"Alex what time do you fucking call this?" He said marching towards me.
"Umm 8 15." I said cockily.
"Don't get cocky with me Alex!" He said.
Oops I was in the shit.
"This is you last last last chance now Alex." He said, he knows this is all I got so gave me as many chances as I need but I guess there a limit to everything.
" Okay thank you Vic." I said walking into the back and hanging my coat up and getting my apron.

Like normal my day was long and boring.
Me and Alec decided it would be a good idea to play netball with some of the napkins so we did using the bin as the goal. It was fun until Vic told us off.
I was left on my own when Alec finished his shift.
"Enjoy the rest of hell Alex." Alec said laughing.
"You won't be saying that tommorow as you got the early start!" I shouted back.
"Fuck off Alex!" Alec simply said walking out the door.

Hardly anyone was around so I decided it was time to close.
I was whipping down the tables and putting the chairs on top of the tables when someone came in.
Seriously dude, I've just cleaned everything. I thought to myself.
"Hang on, I'll be with you in a sec!" I said finishing off the last table and chairs.
"Don't rush." He said.
"Who said I was rushing?" I said as I walked back over to the counter. I pit the Cleaning products away and went back to the dude.
"What can I get ya?" I said walking over and getting myself a drink.
Rude I know it I really needed a drink.
"Umm can I have a coffee." He said.
"What sort there loads!" I said seeing how he would react.
He looked confused as hell.
"I'm joking okay, don't let your brain work over time." I chuckled.
"White or black?" I said looking over my shoulder.
Damn he was cute.
"Um white please." He said thinking a lot about something.
"On its way!" I smiled and got on making his coffee.
" I don't recognize you? You come here often?" I said trying to make conversation.
"I do come here often but I've never seen you here before, are you new?" He said looking at me.
"Me? New? Nope I've been working here what seems like forever!" I said with a little laugh.
"Here's your coffee. That's 3 dollars please." I said smiling.
"Here, keep the change." He said.
"What's your name? Maybe we'll see more each other?" I said as he turned to walk away.
"Jack, you are?" He stopped and looked at me.
"Alex! But there's an Alec which works here, don't get us confused like normal people do." I said hoping he got what I was trying to say.
"I won't don't you worry." Jack smiled.
With that he left the shop.
I recleaned the work surface and shit and went to the back took my apron off and put my coat on put my headphones in and went to lock up and start walking home.

Next thing I knew I had bright lights heading straight towards me.
I knew the car hit me.
But I blacked out with the pain.

I knew it should of killed me but for some reason it didn't.

Why didn't it kill me?

Notes
