Thread: Phoenix (CandyxDangerous)

Anxious, it was probably the most apt word that Christine could use to describe her current state of being. This certainly hadnt been the first location the college had instructed her to do an internship for, and if she was guessing right, Virgo Industries wouldnt be the last either.Thus far, each and every company that looked promising had turned her away. The game, could play out like such the CEO would, per usual, bring her into hisher office and have her take a seat in a rather uncomfortable, expensive chair before a great desk and explain in lawyer terms, that they werent interested into someone like herself. Not even looking over her credentials, her school transcripts or GPA. It was as if each and every company had some sort of unspoken vendetta against the curvy brunette. With a soft sigh, Christine reclined herself against the comfortable backing of the couch and waited none the less. However, despite her nerves as she waited, she was hopeful, even if it was limited hope. Silently she waited, pulling out her black and white Iphone every few minutes to check the time. At first it had been five minutes she remained still and patient. Then it turned to ten, fifteen, then twenty At this point, the young woman couldnt have found her patients if it had been sitting on her lap, screaming at her. It was understandable to be a little late in a high stress environment such as this, but to have a possible intern waiting for twenty plus minutes? To Christine, it was downright selfish the CEO, in her opinion, could be hung by hisher damnable toes! It had been about half an hour now that she had waited, slumped over on the comfortable leather sofa before she looked up and watched the beautiful woman behind the receptionist desk stand up with graceful fluidity and sauntered over towards a tall, breath taking man. He stood, what appeared to be six foot something, towering over his assistant who stood at Christines height five foot three inches. Even as she sat up and gazed over at him, the young woman was taken with him. He was beautiful, almost angelic like what with his golden hair and his smooth, perfect alabaster skin. What took her by surprise was when his eyes met hers. Christine had seen an array of eye colors, everything from the deepest coal black eyes, all the way to blue and green Calico eyes never before had she seen eyes quite like his. His beautiful orbs were a deep violet color, and Christine found that she, despite her best efforts could not look away from them. Not only were they strange, but as he gazed at her, she felt small and significant. With wild caramel eyes, Christine watched him begin to make his way towards her as if it hadnt been bad enough when she had first entered the massive fifteen story building, her nerves once again told hold of her and held onto her with a vice like grasp. Like a spring though, she stood up tall and tried to make herself as presentable as possible. It probably wasnt until he was inches from her did she notice his smirk, even despite that charm of his, it felt sickly sweet. Christine returned the favor and offered a warm, genuine smile instead, wondering if perhaps this was just how he smiled. You would be correct Mr. Rhodes, she took his hand and gave it a firm shake, Christine Cawthorne. Another sickly pang resonated within her body at his pleasure to meet you comment hiding her sudden disgust, she smiled warmer and nodded, The pleasure is mine, Mr. Rhodes. She had been half tempted to withdraw her hand with lightning speed, but knew if she did, Mr. Rhodes would perhaps wonder just what this hopeful interns issue was. Even despite the rocky beginning, Christine had high hopes after meeting the C.E.O, felt that perhaps this was the perfect fit for her. Yes, he had been a bit repulsive even if it had been on accident, but she felt it was going different than her other interactions. Thank you for having me today Mr.Rhodes, Ive quite thankful for this opportunity to possibly speak to you about your amazing intern program, Im hopeful we can come to a conclusion together whether Ill be a good fit here or not?
