Yoou Can't Buy Love |Closed|

This is a closed RP between Sasha Johnson & myself.

Emily finished filling out her sixth application and turned it into the job center. They were for various jobs, this latest on a resume for live-in nanny position. She adored children, and loved to work with them, so maybe this time she would have some luck? She walked out of the employment office and adjusted her jacket. The cold wind whipped her hair around her face. She made her way to the local coffee shop where she worked for the time being, until she got a better offer. She walked inside and greeted a few of her fellow employees and went in the back where she took of her jacket, pulled her hair up, and put on green uniform apron. She varied from a barista to a waitress, it just depended on what he boss wanted her to do that day. She made sure before clocking in her phone was on vibrate and in her pocket, just in case she received a call.

After talking to her current boss, she found out she'd be making the coffee's today, so Emily took her place behind the counter and started making coffees with every order that was placed. Close to an hour or working, her pocket started vibrating. Lucky for her, they died down so she brought it out and answered the call. "Is this Miss Stone?" Came a rough voice, sounded like a middle-aged man. "Yes, this is her." Emily said. She nodded at someone to take her place before going to the back where it was more quite. "Miss Stone, we have found an add, and a man is looking for a nanny for his daughter, about five years of age, and he'll be doing interviews today, I could give you the address if you'd like?" Emily grinned and eagerly nodded, but felt stupid after. "Yes, I'd love it." She said and found a notebook and pen. After writing the address down, she said bye and hung up. Emily then found her boss and asked for the rest of the day off and explained why, and he let her go.

She glanced down at the address and the house she found. It was a nice white two story house, Victorian-styled. Taking in a deep and nervous breath, Emily walked up the pathway and the steps. She knocked three times on the door, standing on the porch. A older man dressed in black and white, no doubt a butler. "Yes ma'am?" He asked in a thick British accent. "Yes, um, I'm here about the nanny position?" She asked. Nodding, the butler stood aside and invited her in. "My name is Carlton, ma'am. I'll go fetch the boss." He said and disappeared, leaving Emily in the big parlor by herself.

David was busy upstairs typing hurriedly away at his computer while argueing with the new intern in his cell. He glared at his computer screen "Look Christina if you can't handle this job then I'll find someone to take your place and you can just go back to working for McDonalds!" He nearly yelled into his phone. "How hard is it to put the files where they need to go? Is hard?" He waited for the usually "No." The girl gave him before he stopped what he was soon as closed his eyes and sighed. Why did the CEOs always have to bring in these interns? He didn't have time to babysit them to make sure they got the job done. He then saw his butler step in the door way and mention that someone who was interested in doin the nanny position. He glanced at his daughter who was playing with her Barbie doll in the corner quietly. He couldn't help but smile, ignoring Christina's jabber about how she wouldn't mess up again and how he could do the job. "I don't care how you do it, just get it done." He growled before hanging up.

He pushed away from the desk and stood before making his way towards his daughter, Chelsea. He smiled warmly to his five year old as he watched her brush her dolls hair. Chelsea looked do much like his wife. She had big blue eyes and long straight brown hair that was pulled into uneven pigtails. She had begged him that morning to put her hair up, of course it was during a meeting so he did it while balancing his phone to his war with his shoulder. She didn't seem to mind anyways, the smile she gave him afterwards made it worth it. "Chelsea want to help Daddy with a job?" He asked. Chelsea smiled as she looked at her Daddy and nodded "Yeah!" She said excitedly.

David held his hand out to her and began to follow the butler down the large marble stairs. He looked towards the young girl standing in the parlor. He blinked as he stopped at the end of the stairs as he frowned a bit. "You seem young to be a nanny. I know I asked for someone with experience." He said with an annoyed sigh. What was with everyone and always sending young, inexperienced people? He wanted the best or his daughter just like he wanted to best team at his job, but this was far more important. He wanted to make sure the person could take care of his daughter. Chelsea smiled towards the new girl "Oh Daddy! Is she going to be my new playmate? She's pretty! I like her!" She said happily while tugging on his hand a bit. David frowned slightly at his daughter not liking where this was going.

Emily glanced up and turned towards the man. Her smile faded off her face at his tone, did she already do something wrong? "I do have experience. I had a previous job as a nanny, and I've baby sat since I was twelve years ago. I'm only twenty-three, I'm not that young." She said with a frown, but her eyes lit up at the little girl by his side. She smiled at the small girl's compliment and she bent to her knees to be level with the small girl. "Hey there, my name is Emily. What's your name?" She asked the small girl who grinned shyly. "I'm Chelsea." She said. "Hey there, Chelsea. How old are you?" She asked in a gentle tone. The small girl held up five fingers. "Five, that's a big girl age!" She said and the small girl grinned, tugging at her daddy's hand. "Daddy, I want her!" She said, jumping up and down eagerly. She pushed herself up with ease, she had strong legs and upper body strength thanks to years of cheer-leading and gymnastics.

Emily looked towards the man, David. "I understand if you're looking for someone more.. older." She said and thought of the nanny from Mary Poppins or Nanny McPhee. "Although, I can't promise I have any powers or a flying umbrella." She joked, but it turned into an awkward moment. "Look, no, I don't have a ton of experience, but I love children. I also really need a job, something much better then what I have." She said. She didn't mean to sound like she was pleading, but this was probably a real good opportunity, and she wasn't about to let it pass her by. She'd fight for this job if she had too, and Chelsea looked like a real sweet little girl, and Emily was sure she'd get along real well with her. It was all up to her father, though. Now him, Emily wasn't sure they'd get along too well. She could already tell his type. The workaholic father.

David looked at Emily before lowering to his own daughters level as he frowned at her and looked at her sternly "Now Chelsea is that how we ask for things?" He asked sternly. Chelsea frowned and shook her head slowly to her father. "How do we ask?" He asked keeping the sterness in his voice. Chelsea shifted a bit as she looked at the ground before looking at her father again. "Can Miss Emily be my Nanny sir? Please?" She asked softly as she tried to give her dad puppy dog eyes. David smiled softly to her and patted her head gently "That's much better." He said softly. He stood back up before looking the girl over one last time. He didn't exactly have time to be picky "Fine. We'll let you have a shot." He said firmly. Chelsea squealed with excitement and she ran over to Emily and hugged her legs tightly. David narrowed his eyes a bit on Emily "But don't think for a second that I will replace you in an instant if I don't like something." He said coldly, useing the same tone he often used with his intern.

David closed his eyes as he adjusted his tie "We will discuss payment later, for now I will show you around." He said as he took the last step and headed down the parlor to the even larger living room that was big enough to hold four couches. In the far corner was clearly Chelsea's area with pictures she drew hung up on the wall, her toys nearly in bins. There was a large red and gold rug on the floor with matching couches. The TV looked to belong something in a movie theater and was built into the wall. "This is the living room, you can make yourself comfortable here but don't create extra work for the maid. And make sure Chelsea doesn't touch anything that doesn't belong to her. You will be responsible for any messes she makes, don't expect the maid to clean up after you two. She has enough work to do as it is." He said as he walked to the other side of the living room that lead to the dinning room.

Emily smiled at the little girl and her father. She then glanced up at him and nodded. "I won't let you down, I promise." She said with a sincere smile. She winced at the coldness in his voice. Did she do anything wrong? She followed him into the living room, looking around in awe at it's splendor. Emily just nodded as he explained. Wasn't that what a nanny was suppose to do, anyways? She almost was knocked over when Chelsea skipped over to her. "Hey." She said and bent down to pick Chelsea up, going into the dining room. It was almost as nice as the parlor and the living room was. A breathtaking chandelier hung over a long wooden oak table, with one chair at each end and three one each side. In the middle of the table was a crystal vase with a variety of different flowers. There was a sliding glass wooden door that led to a patio and a beautiful garden. Two lawns chairs were outside, with a white table between them.

The floor was white linoleum, with every step Emily made it made a small clicking noise from her boots. "You have a beautiful house." She said as she put down Chelsea. She turned back towards David. "I actually need to head back to my apartment and get me some things, do you mind?" She said. She said good-bye to Chelsea and David before making her way out of the house. She then headed back to her own apartment. Having no vehicle made things so much more complicated. When she arrived at her apartment, she packed a couple bags of necessities and clothing, she then left, locking her place up, and headed back to the large house, or what she'd call a mini mansion. Carlton led her in and took her bags from her and she found Chelsea playing with some toys. "Hey, where is your daddy?" She asked her with a kind smile.

[Sasha Johnston]

Chelsea smiled up towards Emily as she stopped playing with her dolls. "Daddy is where you can always find him. In his office upstairs. He is in a very important meeting right now so I have to play down here." she said as she smiled towards Emily. The small girl got up and smiled happily towards Emily "So you are going to stay here, with me and Daddy? Wanna play now?" she asked as she held her doll out towards Emily.

David closed his eyes as he leaned back in his chair, another manager was saying and their sells were dropping and so were the customer satisfaction was a well. Apparently the computers going out weren't working properly. Surely there was a way to fix this, it could be as easy as blaming that the customer had done something to make the computers not work properly. People downloaded things all the time that caused viresus to invade their computer. Just blame it on something like that then send out someone to repair the computer, thats what a warrenty was for. David sighed as he rubbed his temple "Have you sent anyone out to even look at these computers?" he asked already annoyed. He rolled his eyes as the managers stated that their staff couldn't find anything wrong with the computers and didn't know why they weren't working. "Well clearly something is wrong! Computers don't just suddenly stop working" he said as he glared at the office phone. He had the phone on speaker and the voices of the other managers filled his office in argument. He didn't have time for something so pointless. It was a simple fix, he was able to keep his sells up and have had no issues with keeping the costomers happy.

(I'll reply tomorrow! I can't think of one right now!)

(That's fine! If my post is too hard to reply to I can re-write it! ^^)

Emily smiled and nodded. "I'd love to." She said and sat down beside Chelsea. She took the doll and played with her. So, David was one of those dad's who spent his entire time working, then? She couldn't really stand people like that who had no times for their families. No matter how busy she would get, she'd make time for her family. When Emily asked if Chelsea was going to be staying, she just nodded. "I'm pretty sure, but it's really all up to your dad if he lets me." She said giving the small girl a slight smile. "I hope so! You're the prettiest nanny we had come in so far. The rest were old, ugly, and mean." She said frowning and Emily smiled. "It's not very nice to call people ugly." She said in a light tone. Chelsea nodded and grinned. "I'm sorry. But you're the prettiest we had, and I like you!" She said and Emily laughed. "Well, I'm glad you do." She told her as she sat the doll down. "It's almost time for daddy to go to work." Chelsea said. She didn't look up and Emily saw the sad frown she had on her face.

David made his way down the stairs with his brief case in hand. He stepped over towards Chelsea and kissed her forehead gently "Gotta go to work now Chelsea. Behave yourself." He said softly as he gave his daughter a warm smile. He then turned towards Emily and handed her a business card "Here if you need anything just ask anyone around here. Make yourself at home. My cell and number to my secretary are on the card." He said before giving Emily a firm nodded. He then stepped out of the house and drive to his office.

-Skip-

That day at work had been long and frustrating. He had spent most of the day yelling at his new intern and re-organizing his files. Not to mention a flood of complaints with the issues coming from the new model of computers being sold. David closed his eyes after parking in the driveway to his house. It was already almost 11 o'clock at night and Chelsea should already be in bed. He hated being away from her so long but the bills weren't going to pay themselves. He let a sigh out as he got out of his bright yellow corvette and headed to te front door. He half expected his house to be a wreck. Emily was so young still and Chelsea could be a handful at times, just as any five year old would be. Being a full time nanny was much different them any normal babysitting job. He hesitated at the door before he took hold of the door knob and slowly stepped in.
