Rory laughed.
Geez, he was laughing at me. I looked back at my list of questions. "Do you mind sharing clothes? Oh. No. Never mind. I'm sorry, this is kind of embarrassing. I thought you were going to be a girl."
Rory laughed. "I get that a lot."
"Right. Because of Gilmore Girls?"
"Mhm." He looked at me and raised his left eyebrow. "Is that going to be a problem?"
"Um, I don't know. You're the first person I'm interviewing. I definitely won't be discriminating based on sex."Oh my God!"I mean, if you're male or female. I mean, you're male, obviously. Just in general. I won't be breaking any laws."
Rory laughed again. "Well I don't mind sharing my clothes with you, if that helps."
"Oh." I could feel myself blushing. "I think that's all my questions."
"When are you looking for someone to move in?"
"Right away."
"Okay. Well I'm in if you want me."
I do want you. But not as a roommate!"I'll get back to you soon, Rory. There are several other people stopping by today, so I can't make any promises."
"Keep me in mind." He stood up and walked over to the door.
"I will."How could I forget meeting you?
"Nice dress by the way."
I laughed awkwardly. "I was up late at my friend's wedding. Actually, she was my last roommate. And I was a bridesmaid. I didn't pick this out. I don't normally wear things like this."
He smiled. "It looks good on you. Oh, and here's my card." He pulled a business card out of his wallet and handed it to me. "Make sure to stop by the restaurant. I hope to hear from you soon."
"Yeah, okay. Bye, Rory."
"Bye, Keira." He gave me one last smile and left.
What the hell was that?I ran to my room to change before the next interviewee arrived.
Playing A Player - Chapter 2
I opened up my laptop and scrolled through the list of remaining applicants. Any one of these girls could be a serial killer. Or a man. A knock on the door brought me out of my trance.
I slid off the stool and headed to the door. I took a deep breath before opening it.Please just be a normal girl.I opened the door and smiled. "Hi, you must be Piper." I extended my hand to her.
She shifted uneasily before shaking my hand. As soon as her hand fell from mine, she grabbed hand sanitizer from her purse and squirted a large glob in her hand.
"I just washed my hands," I said.
"I'm sure you did." Her tone was accusatory.
"Did you want to come in?" I asked as politely as I could muster.
The girl nodded and walked past me. "This doesn't really look like the pictures."
"Lots of the furniture belonged to my previous roommate. I was hoping to split the cost of some new stuff with whoever takes her place."
"The price is a little high then, don't you think?"
