THIS IS IT.

Stood outside the door of Mr Nazagi. The MR NAZAGI!

My heart swells in anticipation as I don't even knock, the distance barking of dogs and cars as I bite my nails.

Gulping, I raise my hand.

Feeling my hands go clammy, my ears hurt as I shake my head and...

*Tap*

*SWOOSH*

Flying back I yelp and shy away, slowly turning back when I hear nothing but silence. My head turns to see...

Mr Nazagi... in his Jimmy Jams!

My face breaks bright red, I feel my chest extend and collapse dramatically. Grabbing at it I try and breathe slowly.

Oh my god...

My legs shake with a 'nervous' feeling in my stomach.

He stands there and turns his head with a raised eyebrow.

"Emaline?" He chuckles.

I creek my head up to him, I clear my throat as I run my eyes up and down his bod-

Oh... erm...

I close my eyes and turn around. As I shake my head I feel a hand grab my shoulder and spin me around with an unmeasurable amount of force.

"Emaline... what the hell are you doing?" He looks around, as do I.

He looks me in my eyes and I try and avert his gaze, failing miserably I just look at him and offer my hand out to him.

Looking at he shakes his head and giggles to himself, suddenly I feel a light pressing on the top of my head. Peering up I see Mr Nazagi with his arm reached out with his hand on my head.

I stand up straight and smile.

"What's with the strange antics? I didn't invite you round for an interview we're just hanging out." He smiles at me.

I put my hand on his hand and he taps my head bring his arm back to his side.

"Hurry up, get inside it cold out here." He shivers to himself.

I hurry inside and see the couch has a blanket it on it, with a cup of Juice on the coffee table. My gaze turns to him.

He shrugs and yawns with a lengthy stretch. "Ivory is working till later so I thought I'd relax."

Instinctively he goes and plops himself back on the couch. "This is where you'll be staying the night."

He mutters tapping the couch with a uncommon glee.

...

"DID YOU SAY... STAY?!" I feel my legs go bambi and a dizzy wave goes over me.

Catching myself on a shelf I take a deep breath.

"You're staying right? Ivory said..." he waves his hand around confused.

I nod. "Oh yeah I remember something now.. me and Ivory must've talked about it."

No we didn't, but I'm too scared to say no!

Stood I continuously nod and trot over to the couch and plod on it. Noticing the TV it's playing some cowboy movie.

"What is this?" I turn and ask him.

"John Wayne, you ever seen him?" He replies.

"Oh... John Wayne." I tap my chin.

....

"I think.. I... erm... No." I smile with innocence.

He chuckles. "The Duke. One of the best actors ever, my Dad loved him! He even had a signed autograph he bought on his wall."
