Who is that man?
A Modern! Haytham Kenway x Maid! Reader
A/N: I know I made that post ages ago, but it's finally here. Don't expect miracles cause I'm still stuck on Chapter 4. I was working on another major story before this one and it's still stuck at Chapter 10 and word don't let me open it. (i swear if it got deleted i am going to cry) NOBODY HAS ANY PERMISSION TO COPY, STEAL OR TRANSLATE THIS STORY!! Like and reblog if you like
Warning: CRINGE WRITING, it's the beginning ok after two major unfinished stories. Reader is cringe and is really, REALLY struggling financially, Haytham may come off as a creep but he means well.
Walking down the street, Y/N made her way to the nearest newspaper booth to pick up a paper. Skimming through the paper, she came across the Job section and looked at the openings. They all demanded the same requirements: a college degree in a specific field, 20+ experience, complete understanding of the field and credible references. Frustrated, Y/N put the paper under her arm and made way to the bulletin board outside the Workforce office. Openings the door, she was hit by the fresh air of the AC. Sighing in relief she walked to the bulletin and looked at the papers all stapled on top of each other. Moving and lifting papers to get a better look at them, she was suddenly hit by the scent of a strong cologne hitting her nostrils.
She turned to the direction of the scent only to see a man in a navy blue suit, jet black hair slicked back into a pony tail and gray eyes. As he entered the office to the workforce, Y/N snapped out of her trance returning to the papers on the bulletin. She took out her phone and began calling some of the numbers. At this point, she needed any type of job, even if it meant getting catcalled by her coworkers or getting caked in dirt and looking like she had been to hell and back. All she had was her old car that she was currently living in, 2 dollars in her pocket , her bank had suspended her account due to her overdraft fees and she was stealing old food from restaurants.
Calling the 5th number and receiving no good news, her eyes began to fill with tears. She leaned against the board, head on the wall with her arm above her head and cried, the newspaper dropping to the ground. The door to the workforce opened and laughing emitted out it. A dark chuckle came out and the cologne scent from before came out. As she continued to cry, footsteps began to approach her. She didn’t realize until an hand was put on her shoulder. Startled, Y/N jumped back wiping the tears from her eyes, she looked up and saw the man in the blue suit with his gray eyes looking up at hers.
“I’m sorry, am I in your way”? The man chuckled, “No, I saw you crying is everything alright”? Hand still on her shoulder, Y/N grabbed his hand off her shoulder. “No, I can’t seem to find a job anywhere I – I’m sorry it’s none of your business” The man smirked, “ What type of job are looking for”? Sniffling, Y/N let out a frustrated sigh, “At this point, anything that doesn’t ask for 30 college degrees or 40 years of experience. The man smiled, “Well, I think I can help. I have a position opening soon, my longtime maid is retiring. And I need to have the position filled as soon as possible, Can you clean houses, wash and iron, prep a quick meal if need be?”.
Overcome with hope, Y/N nodded her head. “Yes, my grandma used to clean houses for a living and my aunt use to be a personal chef, I would always go and help them to earn some cash when I was younger.” “Well, that's more than enough of what I am looking for. Do you have living accommodations or do you need a place to stay.”? Y/N wanted to explode then and there. The perfect opportunity walked through the door to save her from an unknown fate. Holding her composure, Y/N replied, “Yes, I’ve been living in my car as of late.”
Embarrassment and shame crept up on her face as she felt her face heat up. The man smiled “Well then, it’s settled I finally can give up this little hunt for a new maid. Congratulations, you’re hired. I expect you to come on Tuesday at 7:00 am sharp. I do not tolerate tardiness and wear comfortable white shoes and a uniform will be provided for you. Your hair is expected to be groomed and kempt. Your hands and nails should be kept clean and no flamboyant makeup or hair. No phones on duty and you will have a room of your own, please keep in mind of others and keep the room clean and – “
Grrrooooowwwwlll!!!
Everything was going so well, until Y/N’s stomach made its presence known. Awkwardly smiling at the man, she wished the ground could swallow her whole. The man coughed, “Yes well as I was saying - Gggggrrrrroooowlll! Yes, well keep that in mind, the address is 7820 in the Jefferson Estates. It's a white/ beige big manor on 40 acres as well as a fountain in the middle and a name plate out front. The phone number is 563-9823.” The man unbuttoned his suit jacket and reached into the pocket. He pulled out 3 hundreds and a business card.
Y/Ns eyes bulged out her eye sockets “Here for your 'troubles’ pointing to her stomach. Y/ N awkwardly giggled, cursing her stomach. He turned around, then turned back around, “Ah, I didn’t get your name, miss”. “Huh, oh it’s Y/N L/N. The man grabbed her hand and kissed her knuckles, “Haytham Kenway” . Heat creeping up her face, Haytham turned around and left. She slid down the wall and breathed a sigh of relief. She had never gone through a rollercoaster of emotions in a small amount of time. She had only realized that this man gave her three hundred dollars like pocket change. She began to freak out, but her stomach reminded her as to why she got that money in the first place. Looking at the business card she could have sworn that name sounded familiar.
Notes: Sorry I wanted to look it over and word is a complete ass by deleting documents and editing.
