Famous

Chapter 4: When in Cali

Ashley's POV:
Today is going to be so exciting! I'm moving into my brand new modern apartment in West LA! Im so happy to finally be out of the small town and into the city where my dreams could finally come true. After my 9 hour flight I finally made it to Cali. And now I have a mission. I need a car. I had a nice little Chevy back home but now that I'm here I need something a little more California and a little less country. I sold my old car so I would has a little more cash for my new one and now I'm thinking about a grey ford convertible. I might as well go for something nice so I'm not wanting to replace it in 2 years. So the first thing was I had to rent a car from the airport and go straight to the nearest ford dealership. Which unfortunately was 1 hour away but I get to drive this really nice range rover so I'm kind of okay with it. When I finally reached the car dealership, I saw my dream car sitting right in the front of the parking lot. I immediately ran inside got the nicest looking car dealer and sat down to talk numbers. After an hour and a half of signing papers I finally got my car! It was so amazing! I only had one problem, I still had the rental range rover. So now that I screwed myslef, I have to drive the range rover all the way back to the airport, call a cab from the airport and then have the cab take me back to the dealership to pick up my convertible. This was turning out to be a very expensive day. The cab ride alone was 80 dollars. By the time I got back to the dealership is was already 4:30 and I hadn't even been to my house or had lunch. Honestly I'm more worried about the lunch. I'm starving, I didn't eat breakfast because I would have had to eat airplane food and yeah that wasn't going to happen. And my flight was at 4 in the morning which is crazy so I am also very exhausted. But getting to my new apartment is the most important thing so I have to do that first. I have the address on my phone and it is taking me there, the landlord said that the keys were under the mat and she would leave them there for me.

I just arrived at my apartment and it is even better than the pictures! In the pictures the kitchen was stocked with old appliances but they now are updated with all stainless steal appliances and new granite countertops. The apartment also has a spiral staircase that leads to the master bedroom and bathroom but that's all it leads to. I am beyond excited to live here. But all I have is my mattress, a blanket and my clothes. So a shopping trip will defiantly be held tomorrow but for tonight I'm ordering pizza and getting my wifi and cable hooked up. Luckily I thought of that before I came here or I wouldn't be able to work from home. Trying to be discovered isn't exactly a good paying job and the money I get from my dad only goes so far, so I also work for a publishing company. It's not very hard, the company emails me man scripts of books that people are interested in getting published and I read them and decide if I should forward them to my boss or if they should be tossed. I know it doesn't seem like the most exciting job but it pays pretty good and I make my own schedule. As long as I read 15 scripts a week and send the good ones to my boss. Although I have a pretty good income, I still want to become famous. I still want to live out my dream. I am not going to give up until I succeed.

Harry's POV:

"Flight 346 is now boarding" comes over the announcements and I quickly go and get on the plane. My stay at the hotel in England was wonderful and I'm glad I stayed there for that last day instead of getting my flight changed. It was very relaxing but now I'm on a plane that was supposed to be here 2 hours ago and I have to meet my relestate agent in 10 and a half hours to get the keys to my new mansion and I'm freaking out. I'm very anxious to just get to California and settle in to my new home.

That flight was aweful, it was seriously the worst turbulence I have ever experienced and I'm glad it's over. I have to meet my agent in 45 min to get my keys, luckily the airport is only 30 min away from my house. I got a cab so I didn't have to worry about getting a rental car and I arrived at my new house right on time, my agent was just pulling into the gated driveway when I stepped out of the cab. I payed the driver and shooed him to leave. My real estate agent quickly handed me the keys and I ran inside to see my beautiful, luxurious mansion!

A/N: I will describe the mansion in the next chapter and above is the picture of Ashley's new convertible.
