It was the next day and I got on the plane. I had been given the window seat and my brother had complained about it as usual. The trip to France went very quickly as I slept almost the entire trip. It was nice to step inside the door and avoid hearing a lot of noise. I heard a sound from my mobile so I opened the mobile to check.

Hi Frankie, hope the trip home went well. Sad that I couldn't say goodbye

Who is this

It's Charles.

Hi how did you get my number haha

It's a secret.

I put his phone now in my mobile and then unpacked my things from my suitcase. I found myself thinking about the guys I met on my holiday. Charles with the warm hugs, his green eyes and dimples. Max with those blue eyes that sparkled in certain lights and his nice smile. Didn't notice how I wandered on in those thoughts so had stopped packing and just sat on the edge of the bed.

Watching my brother enter my room with a grin on his face. "we're going now" he says and sits on my bed "going where" I ask as I start packing my clothes again "we're going to sign my contract with alpine now" says Simon and see how his smile becomes bigger than it was before. "Do you want me to go with you" I ask even though I know what he will answer. "of course you're coming, you're my biggest supporter" with that said, we jump into our car and drive towards Alpine's office. I got to be a DJ during the drive there even though they always complained about my taste in music.

While Simon talks to Bruno in the office, I sit and check social media. Then I get a call. "Hello, it's Francesca," I answer. "hi Francesca, we saw your email about a modeling job" replies the woman on the other end of the phone, I feel myself getting hard to breathe and red all over my face, before I can say anything she continues talking "we are interested in doing a collaboration with you where are you during the weekend" I felt myself immediately getting nervous. "I'm in Paris" I try to say in a steady voice but it doesn't seem to go well. "good thing we have some photographers in Paris, I'll email all the details and we'll meet tomorrow morning" we hang up and I jump up and down.

Just then Simon and my father come back. "what is it Frankie" he says when he sees my smile on my face. "I got a modeling job and I'll do it tomorrow" I see how he starts to smile and in a few seconds I'm in my brother's arms. "mom would have been so proud of you" when he said that, memories start to come where my mom always cheered me on, where she was always forced to take lots of pictures of me. "how did it go Simon" I say to show my support for my brother "I'm now officially a rider for alpine". We have to celebrate that, I think, and I feel Simon put his arm around my shoulders and say "tonight we're going out to celebrate".

When we arrived, I changed into slightly nicer clothes and fixed my make-up. My father had been on the phone all evening after the contract was done. Of course he would brag about my brother but nothing about me. However, it wasn't something I could care about at the moment because the only thing I could think about was how both me and my brother got their dreams fulfilled.

My brother and I took a taxi to a bar near our hotel. During the car ride, we talked about how it felt with his contract and my first modeling job. When we got to the bar we went in and it was modernly decorated. We sat down at one away and ordered a few drinks.
