Stars are for the Sky

Ch. 1 - Class Diversion

" I just think it would be good for you Kels, to get out and just breathe fresh air for a bit, plus you get to meet hot pop stars.. per say... One Direction?!" Kendall nudged my arm while taking a big bite of my pancakes.

" I don't know, I think I just need to relax, I just finished all of my finals and I'm exhausted. I can always take a Lush bath and just watch season 4 for Friends.." i said pushing the unwanted strawberries around the once whole pancake.

" Okay..Hm.. I don't think you herd me correctly, because DID I MENTION IT'S HARRY STYLES? HARRY. FUCKING. STYLES. KELS??" she said shaking me like I just got hypnotized.

In which I kind of did, I just graduated college for Fashion merchandising, I just had 5 finals, and I had to make a whole clothing collection... all within a week. I'm completely out of it because of the exhaustion. I do love Kendall, and i do love going to her work to meet these stars, but I can't look like i'm enjoying it when I look like an extra zombie from The Walking Dead.

"KELS? YOU THERE?" She said snapping her long acrylic nails in my dazed sleepy eyes.

"Yes, yes Ken, I'll go, just please let me rest for a bit and then I will get ready." I lazily got up, straightened out my pajamas, and dragged my feet to the loveliest thing in the whole world... my bed.

" Yes I understand, I think it would look better if it was a white background with black accents, with them wearing their torn black skinny jeans, it would flow better than wh- mhmm, no thats too much Dom- okay okay bye now!"

The sound of Ken's booming and bubbly voice crawls down the hall seeping underneath my closed door, and into my ears. I wiped the sleep out from under my eyes and stretched. Grabbing my phone, I checked twitter for anything new that, honestly, I don't care too much about...

@niallhoran : Great to be back in LA, Photoshoot time, ready for a new start!!

was just one of the ones that caught my eye. I think the whole "New Start" attitude is kind of nice considering I heard Zayn left a couple weeks ago. I have never been a 'Directioner' or anything but I do find myself listening to their music quite often, so I can't say I'm not excited for this shoot today.

I quickly got up, hopped in the shower, did my hair, threw on a white wife beater tank top with some boyfriend ripped jeans, put on some reflective sunnies, and headed to Ken's room.

"Hey Ken! Im ready and I'm awa- WHAT HAPPENED HERE?" I said glancing around her once spotless room, now looking like a tornado landed right on top of her bed.

" I HAVE NOTHING TO WEAR.. I MEAN HARRY WILL BE THERE I WANT TO MAKE A LASTING IMPRESSION." she said pushing her hair back in horror and turning red.

" No need for a lasting impression, its a simple photoshoot, you guys won't end up anything, people like us aren't meant to date people like them, it wouldn't ever work.. so pick out a usual outfit because you will look gorgeous anyways!" I said throwing a black blouse and her dark skinny jeans with her valentino studded flats. She quickly changed into the outfit, brushed her hair out, and we headed towards our apartment door.

" Oh wait, Kels, don't be so pessimistic please. It CAN happen, just because we aren't on the same level as fame or fortune as these people, doesn't mean we don't have a chance. You fall for who you fall for and it just happens." she said is hugging me while trying her hardest to lock the door back before heading to the car.

"Dom!!" Kendall ran up to her boss and gave him a hug, he quickly came to my side and hugged me.

"Today is the big day ladies! One. Direction. it will make Snapster skyrocket.. don't mess this up Kendoolllll" he said dragging out he nickname he gave her while heading towards the set.

" Kels, I can't say i'm not nervous, but like he said, this is the big day. Thank you so much for coming today to support me." she said with the biggest smile on her face. She quickly went to set up for the shoot, it was amazing to see how her creative thoughts flow into a flawless set.

Out of nowhere I hear a voice shriek and everyone turned. I saw Monica, the stylist, holding clothes in her hand, gripping them with white knuckles.

"Mon.. what happened?" Dom said with a nerve wracking questioning face.

" The clothes, I told my assistant to hand wash them, so the color looks nice, but she did it on the roughest setting and now they are dingy and ripped!" she said showing the jeans being frayed and such.

"What are we going to do?! I got word the boys are about to pull in and we don't have the clothes for their most important photoshoot since Zayn left.." Dom said pacing with the clothes strewn across his now pale arm.

I quickly realized... I majored in this for this stuff I could do it?!

"Dom.." i spoke quietly, not to frighten the fragile looking man, "I can fix it... this is what i majored in so its a piece of cake." i said with confidence in my voice.

He threw the clothes at me and walked back to the set.

" 10 MINUTES KELSEY THANK YOU" I hear him yell from camera 1.

After 10 minutes of intense sewing and patching and colored dye, the clothes looked as good as new. Thank god I passed my finals... these look SO. GOOD.

"Boys! Hello! The clothes will be out any second, anything while waiting?" I hear Dom sweet talking the young men.

"No thank you, but thank you!" said a thick British accent.

I rushed out from behind storage with the clothes, passing them out to their rightful owner. The boys each thanked me and introduced themselves.

"Nice to meet you, Im Kelsey Stall." i said nervously and went to stand by Kendall.

"Nahhh you didn't stall at all, that was quick!" said Niall, the blonde irishman who was extra smily now.

" Puns of the last name... nothing new, but funny!" I said while making less than two seconds of eye contact.

After 10 minutes of introductions, the boys started the photoshoot, Kendall was falling over her own thoughts staring at Harry. He seemed pretty fond of her too though. I decided to go get a drink so I snuck out to go get one.

" No! No! Its not that she doesn't like celebrities, its that she doesn't feel we should date them, and you date your own class level for the satisfaction of it working out!" I see Kendall talking to Niall and Harry.

" Well then lets prove her wrong.." Harry winked at her and ate a doughnut.

I quickly walked over to them just in time for Harry and Kendall to walk away to talk privately.

"So I heard your theory.. sounds smart, in a sense, I mean I agree. From my point of view, I need someone who gets my job and understands the in's and out's of it to have a smooth relationship." Niall said drinking a coke and leaning against a wall smirking at me.

" Well THAT is kind of selfish and conceding, but whatever works for you bud." I said walking away.

Little did I know, both of our views would change.
