Author's Summary:
Jack has a possible new tenant. He can already tell she’s trouble.
Why This Must Be Read:
This is the first story in a revised/re-imagined 'House that Jack Built' series. It stands alone well as an AU, but you can go on and read the rest of the stories, if you're interested. It's a fun series and I'll recommend that for happy reading.
Jack huffed out a sigh as he raked his fingers absently through his short hair. This job sucks, he thought absently though he didn’t genuinely hate his job. He just hated the paperwork and that Daniel was chronically late on his rent and that George insisted grad students get first dibs on any openings. Daniel was a perpetual student. Most of the kids were here three years then moved on. The building was currently emptying fast of the crop from a couple years ago when he took over after George fired Bert.
Jack was supposed to just be the night manager when he first came on, hadn’t even qualified for a paid for apartment from the building so he’d been still sleeping on Daniel’s couch for lack of a place to stay after his divorce. Sara had ironically tired of his perpetual short-term employment, so when he’d gone on a dig with Daniel because he needed a strong back and cheap labor he’d come home to a handful of legal papers and the door closed in his face. Love just didn’t conquer all and thankfully Daniel had figured the marriage wouldn’t last and offered him a place to stay for half the rent and keeping his head down.
It had been George who had asked him if he needed a job last year, initially offering him a night manager job that Jack suspected didn’t specifically exist prior to that moment, but it was a paycheck and all he had to do was answer the phone if someone had a maintenance issue. Other than the sketchy toilet in Janet’s apartment that Jack suspected had more to do with her daughter Cassie flushing things she shouldn’t than a real problem, it was an easy way to make a few bucks and it was stable.
