"W-what?" I stammer.He looks at the ground and smirks, "my daughter was so cute in her little white dress... so pure and innocent." He side eyes me, "sadly they never stay that way for long," he chuckles and scratches at the scruff on his face. His eyes rake up my body slowly.
I clear my throat and my skin feels itchy with uneasiness, "yes, kids are very cute." Turning around I start walking towards my car.
"Wait a minute, have you thought about my offer?" Dans voice becomes a bit more frantic behind me as he grabs my shoulder. I tense up at the contact.
"Offer...-" turning I face him.
"For me to be your... personal, one way ticket into acting and fame." He grins at me slyly before tilting his head at me.
His mouth sinisterly quirks up at the end, aiding in revealing chipped crooked teeth. "Yeah, no thanks I'm good with what I'm doing now," uncomfortably I smile and try again to leave but ultimately am stopped.
"Coffee." Dan suddenly says.
"What?"
"Just come get some coffee with me so that we can talk a bit more about the movie you auditioned for. Me and my partners are still discussing who we want for the roles... maybe if we talk a bit I'll have a better view on how you see the character?" He raises a bushy brow at me, almost daring me to say no.
I clear my throat once more and look around, thinking the options over in my head.
"We'll only talk about the movie?" I then ask, trying to convince myself in my mind that I'm not doing the wrong thing.
Hero's angry face flashes in my mind and I know I'm betraying him by doing this, but what if what he was warning me about with Jamie really wasn't too bad and he's just trying to scare me? Yeah, I'm my own woman, I can make my own adult decisions.
"Fine, only a hour tops though." I bargain.
"Deal." His smile is unsettling.

.When we enter the building I realize that we are not in a coffee shop but high class restaurant, I get disgusted looks as I pass buy the occupants there. I look down, noticing that my wide legged low rise jeans and tight long sleeved grey shirt is vastly different than the cocktail dresses and tuxes.
It is now that I also notice Dan is in decently formal attire and it's what, ten am?
Though in the corner of my eye I make eye contact with a girl who seems to be around fourteen, her eyes widen before she turns to her mother besides her and shakes her arm then points at me. "Mom, look it's J." I hear her whisper.
"Um, I thought we were going to a coffee shop?" I ask him unsure of what we are doing here.
I also wonder to myself why a place like this is so packed on a Monday morning. "Oh, I just don't feel comfortable dining amongst just anyone. You learn that with fame it's hard to be around the rifraf." He lowly chuckles. "Isn't that right? It must've been hard going from a nobody to a some body in the blink of a eye, especially getting famous off of doing cover songs." He then scoffs.
I'm not Hero Finnes-Tiffin but I do have some decent fame especially in Australia and I've never felt uncomfortable amongst the "rifraf" that is plain out just rude and quite frankly it makes me want to just walk out of this place right now.
"For one, you're rude as fuck, and for two I didn't only do cover songs. I have a whole album of my own out and I modeled." I snap and he laughs loudly then holds up his hands in defense.
"Woah, didn't mean to tick you off, god, women are so quick to get their panties in a twist." He rolls his eyes and tries to lead us to a table.
I slap him in the face. Hard. Dan looks at me with wide eyes and the room seems to stop.
"Go fuck yourself, if you ever come near me or my family ever again I'm calling the cops. And I'm not afraid to tell them you were lurking outside of a elementary school, dipshit." I stomp out of the restaurant, barely noticing the cameras flashing in my face as I leave.
When I step outside multiple paparazzi's swarm the door taking photos and yelling questions at me.
Seems like I'm a bit known here too. Though I'm less known as "J" lead singer of "Flavor of People" but more of just Hero Finnes-Tiffin's girlfriend. The media still has yet to find out about Henry. I intend to keep it that way.
But it's one of the things I'm miss about Australia, being my own person.
"Josephine! What happened back there? Are you cheating on Hero?!" A pap yells at me.
I ignore him.
"We saw that slap, why did you assault that man?!" A different one asks.
The questions keep coming as the paps swarm closer and I start getting pushed around, "stop please," I breathe as my heart speeds up. The world becomes blurry as they are getting louder and more aggressive.
Then it seems as if a angel has come down from heaven and I am pulled from the group and into a black suv. I look up to see Jamie sitting in front of me, a impassive look on her face.
"Why were you seen in there with my father?"
