LA is crazy

Cameras, lights, paparazzi...annoying kids thinking they're celebrities.

It's not my favorite place in the world but I guess i have to make it work

I sat in a cafe editing pictures I had only a hour to send out. I took a sip of my coffee trying to stay awake, if I blinked a second longer I'd be out

Bryce hosted a party last night for Josh's birthday and had paid me to take pictures for him.

No was definitely a option

Don't get me wrong the party was fun but parties aren't my thing

From people drinking, fighting, laughing, sexual comments and throwing one another in the pool to Migraines and lost memories the next day I would say that's  a easy pass

I've been working on a picture of some guy diving off the roof into a 5 foot pool "fucking idiot". His friends had to jump in after him and pull him out.

Just as I was moving my mouse to fix his hair my chair was shoved causing my coffee to spill all over the keys of my laptop "fuck" I muttered out

I quickly grabbed napkins from the dispenser and started wiping off my laptop

I turned to see who shoved me thinking it could of just been a accident but all I  saw was the back of a tall guy storming out.

I rolled my eyes at the sight and continued to clean my computer. I picked it up to wipe the spillage from under it.

"You don't have to clean the table sweetie"

I looked up at the older woman standing above me with cleaning products in her hands. I smiled at her "I can totally clea-" I spoke but was cut off

"This is what I get paid for baby" the waitress spoke

I nodded with a small smile as I held my laptop for her to spray and clean the table

I looked around curious to see where the guy had left from and my eye's immediately fell on a girl sitting at a table with her head in her hands

I watched as her hair purposefully fell over her face. Her elbows on her knees as she tried to contain herself.

I looked back up at the lady as she finished. I set my laptop back down and pulled out my wallet to leave a 20 on the table.

I placed my laptop into its bag and stood up slinging it over my shoulder and making my way to the raven haired girl.

I swiftly pulled out the chair from infront of her and sat down "is this seat taken?"

Her whole body froze and my sudden appearance

"Do you need me to kick his ass?" I spoke hearing a small giggle as she took her right hand and flipped her hair out of her face

Her eyes were blood shot red and her green eyes were piercing...her nose was puffy and her cheeks were red and stained from tears

"Um...no" she choked out "I don't think I need that" she gave me a small smile

"Im sorry...he kinda kicked my chair and I couldn't help but notice yo-"

She cut me off with a soft laugh and smile "it's ok I get it, he can be a asshole" Her teeth sunk into her bottom lip drawing it in. I watched as her hands fidget from under the table.

She looked tired...exhausted

"I don't mean to be rude but I do have to get going..I shouldn't be seen like this" She spoke. Her hands pulled out a small wallet from her pocket and placed a 20 on the table for the little cup of tea in front of her and stood up "thank you for offering to kick his ass" she gave me a small smile before walking passed me

"Anytime!" I turned to watch as she left the coffee shop her long hair flowing behind her

She was beautiful...she is beautiful. I turned back to the now empty chair trying to shake the sight of the girl

"Fuck.." I dropped my head to my hands resting on the table

"I didn't get her name"

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ran to my room as soon as I got home to finish the last few pictures for Bryce

A few minutes late never hurt anybody

Once I got them finished I quickly sent them to Bryce and shut my computer taking a deep breath

I drew my watch to my face leaning back in my chair exhausted, I closed my eyes for a solid 5 seconds before my phone and watch went off

RING RING RING

I let out a loud groan before picking up my phone and seeing Bryce's name

I sighed hopping he wasn't pissed off that I was 20 minutes. I hit the green button pulling the phone to my ear instantly regretting it

"Y/N!!! Yo we're going out to eat dude come join us! My treat!"

"Dude" I sighed

"Come onnnnnn! Don't chicken out"

I could barely hear him over the loud music playing in the background "I seriously hate you sometimes"

"Yeah yeah, you say that like everyday now hurry! We're heading out now"

No is for sure a option

I dragged myself out of my chair and threw on a white cropped tee with a loose chain, black cargo and black doc martins and headed out the door
