Y/N POV:

Finally, my own place. After staying in the dorms my freshman, sophomore, and junior year I am finally in my own place. Plus, I have earned this. Working mediocre jobs to pay for tuition and save for my own place was not fun. That's also because this is NYC. Shit isn't cheap. But this is finally happening, and I couldn't be happier. Plus, my best friend Caitlynn (Cait is what we usually call her) is right down the street. I had to be close to my best friend, she's my ride or die. Then there is senior year. After getting out of the Army, this is all I've been looking forward to. After this year I will finally start Law School. Here goes nothing. 

*Phone Rings* (in your mind)-Here we go!

Y/N: Yes, Cait I'm all finished unpacking. Everything is in order. I've been doing this for a week now, I think I have it handled. 

Cait: So, we can start heading over now? Will the food be ready?

Y/N: Do you ever not think about food? Yes, it is ready, seeing as I ordered pizza like twenty minutes ago. 

Cait: Okay, Jay and I will be there in 10. 

Y/N: Sounds good. Just come up when you're here. 

Jay is Cait's boyfriend. They've been together since the summer before freshman year. He's a good guy and treats her right. Somethings she's never really had. Plus, he supports our friendship. She's dated guys before that get jealous because her best friend is a lesbian. They never buy the time to actually ask me my type. Not that Cait is drop-dead gorgeous, but I'm into older women. By that I mean I'm 27 and I like women in their late 30's early 40's. 

*Knocking*

Y/N: Well, that was less than 10 minutes.

Cait: What can I say, I drive fast. 

Y/N: Okay let's make this night count because after today I have a feeling, we won't be having many nights like this often. Hey Jay, did you bring the beer?

Jay: How could I forget the most important part of the meal. 

We are all just enjoying our pizza and beer, I mean what is a better combo. 
Classes start tomorrow and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't nervous. Along with my contract law, math (which I saved for last since I hate it), and law writing class, Cait made me take a class with her. She said it would be like our last "hoorah". We are taking Intro to Acting for Women. Part of the reason I agreed is so I could learn more about the industry. My goal is to become and entertainment lawyer. Cait wants to be an actress, so we have agreed to work with each other for life. Silly I know, but her and I have been best friends since the 5th grade. 

Cait: So, are you ready to meet this mystery professor tomorrow?

Y/N: I still don't understand why the school is keeping this professor a secret for this acting class. They can't be that special. 

Cait: Someone said it's a famous actress. Like big time actress. 

Y/N: Yeah okay. I know this school has money, but not enough to pay a big-time star. 

Cait: You're probably right. You ready for all these law classes you get to take? 

Y/N: Of course, those are the classes I like. It's this math class that's going to kill me. 

Cait: I feel you there. Anyway, let's stop this depressing class talk and put the damn movie on. I'm dying to continue our Marvel movie marathon. 

Y/N: Okay, okay relax, you'll see iron man all you want. 

Cait and I spent our summers watching all the Marvel movies in order. Right now, we are on endgame. It's taken us our three months break because we both work crazy hours. Cait works with kids at a school for after school help and I am a clerical assistant at a local law firm here in New York. When we did get time together, we would watch the movies looking for easter eggs and just crushing on our favorite characters. Her's is Iron Man, mine, Black Widow. When we first saw the Endgame, we were crushed.....still are. 


First story, sorry if you don't like it. Hope you enjoyed this first chapter. Tomorrow, we meet our mystery professor.
