260 Jealous Genie

"Hey Stephen," waved Abby, almost as soon as he walked into from the vestibule. "I hear you are the new 'head honcho' around here!"

Stephen couldn't stop himself from grinning, "Yeah, I just accepted the job this morning. Wait, how do you know about it already?"

She leaned in close, as if it was a carefully guarded secret, "Frank told me just about an hour ago. Guess they are all excited to stop doing double duty after so long a time."

"I guess word travels fast around here," he chuckled to himself.

"Just promise not to restrict my hours or anything, okay?" She laughed, throwing him an exaggerated wink at the end. Grace let out a huff, obviously not pleased by the woman's display of casual flirting.

"Relax, it's okay," Stephen thought internally, in an effort to soothe his jealous genie.

"Anyway, what you are up to today? I didn't think you were working tonight," Abby asked, before looking down at tonight's schedule just to double check herself.

"You're right, but Eric asked me to come in and fill out the paperwork today. Guess I have to start my official training as well," he replied.

"Hope it's better than the lame training videos they used for us," she grinned.

"With my luck, probably not," chuckled Stephen.

"I don't know, Stephen," replied Abby, giving him a look he wasn't used to. "I'd say your luck has been pretty good lately!"

"That's it, I'm about to put her in her place!" Grace growled internally, and Stephen could feel her anxiety.

"Shush you, it'll be fine," he replied, before looking to extricate himself from the situation.

"Well, I'm going to see if I can find Miguel before hitting that training. I'll talk to you later!" He replied, throwing a wave to Abby while his feet started to move away from customer service.

"See you," she waved back.

As Stephen walked the short distance back to the stock room, he could hear Grace muttering some choice expletives inside his head.

"I had no idea my girlfriend was so possessive," he chuckled internally.
