Ａ Ｌ Ｏ Ｒ Ａ

I couldn't possibly be more excited right now.

Nobody could understand how hard I've worked my ass off to get here, no one. I've grown up with pretty shitty parents, luckily, their attitude didn't rub off on me. I was always the second choice, never prioritized. But hey, at least I won't be here to deal with it anymore.

People have always been nice to me because of my looks, I guess you could say that I've taken advantage of that feature. The only good thing that my parents could offer me was their genes. When I've gone out, I have always been complimented, offered things for free, I guess you can say thats how I've learned to thrive. Off of others stupidity.

Yet, modeling was definitely a struggle with standards and everything. Trying to have the "perfect" look to fit into society wasn't always something I thought I'd be doing. But here I am, right?

Now I'm currently on my way to the airport considering I was lucky enough to sign a deal with a modeling agency. I look outside the window as I daydream, and hear a chuckle beside me,

"Y'know, I'm very proud of you Alora, and you should be too! This opportunity is something that can definitely help you.", I hear Charlotte from beside me. She has been with me through thick and thin, sadly she won't travel with me because of her own dreams and desires, so who am I to stop her?

"Thank you, Charlotte. I'm gonna miss you y'know?", I say, pouting at her.

"I'll miss you too! But hey, we're finally growing up. We have to do what we have to do." She says, Charlotte has always told me her dreams of becoming a lawyer, considering the amount of arguing she does, I believe she will do just fine.

I listen to music on my phone while we enjoy the comfort of silence between us. "I wonder what malls i can visit while in Germany", I crack a little smile, already wanting to explore where I'll be staying for a while.

"Here we are Alora!, your journey is beginning." Charlotte grins. She honestly looks like she's going to burst from excitement. Absolutely adorable it almost made me laugh.

I had gathered everything needed from the trunk. Coming back to Charlotte, I intertwined my hands with hers.

I smile brightly, "Go and be the best fucking lawyer out there." I really do wish the best for her. It's the only career path she's wished for since we were little.

She laughs before nodding her head. "I better see you on the cover of a magazine." She says as she wiggles her eyebrows.

We pull each other into a tight hug, knowing it will be a while before we meet again.

I say my last goodbyes to Charlotte, wishing her good luck.

I hoped I was mentally prepared for the airport, since I've never been to one before. Yet, when I had gotten to TSA, everything just went downhill.

I was genuinely confused as to why the staff was so.. angry? So, aggressive. I'm literally trying to go as fast as I can, becoming very overwhelmed very quickly. Having to take off my shoes, take my laptop out my bag?

The lady watching me honestly looked sorry for me as if I had no clue to what I was doing, leaving me to feel embarrassed. Note to self, don't fly again. But hey, I'd take a job if it meant I'd get to be paid to be rude too.

Obviously, there was one thing that could cure every girl of existence-

"Hi! Welcome to Starbucks! My name is Lacey, hope you're having a wonderful day, can I get your name, and what you would like to order?" The blonde had said with a perfect smile on her face. Now this is the type of service I deserve, even if the workers just put on a happy mask, at least they still seem happy to me, I mean, you are getting paid.

"Alora, A caramel ribbon crunch please? In a grande cup, no coffee." I reply as I give her smile.

"No prob! You're very pretty by the way, you look like a model." She says closely examining my facial features.

I blush in response to her compliment and shyly smile, "Thank you, I appreciate it!". I fish out my card from my tote bag and swipe it. I hope this damn card don't decline.

She silently nods before going in the back to make my drink.

I look around the place, loving the aesthetic look of it. If modeling never worked out, I'd spend the rest of my days working some calming cafe.

Eventually, I hear my name being yelled and go to the counter to pick up my drink. I genuinely thought I reached a euphoric state once the drink hit my tastebuds.

Walking out of Starbucks, I take a look at my boarding pass to see what gate I needed to be at. Gate 8. Great, now I need to actually find it.

After what felt like hours, I had found my gate and they had already started boarding..oops?

I hand the lady my boarding pass as she scans it. She looks up to return my pass and gives me a smile allowing me to pass through.

Getting on the plane I immediately noticed I made the most stupidest mistake of not bringing a sweater, why the fuck is it so cold?

I quickly find my seat, and to make matters better, I had struggled to put my carry on in the overhead bin. Seriously?

But, as I lifted my suitcase, I felt someone behind me, slightly press themselves against me, feeling their abs. A hand suddenly goes over mine applying pressure, completely covering it, while weight of my suitcase started becoming lighter, and eventually I was able to put it in the bin.

Huh?

I look behind me, and notice the most handsome man, literally ever. He looks down at me and smiles.

I feel my face burn up immediately, noticing he towers over me. "Thank you...?" I say silently, waiting for him to give me a name.

"Erling, and no problem. It seemed like you needed a little bit of help anyways" He says with a chuckle as he runs his hand through his long hair.

I give a small smile, and quickly sit down thanking myself for getting a window seat. Yet, I can make out that a tall figure stands in my aisle for a moment before sitting next to me.

Well, shit.
