The Letter

I hum a soft tune as I size up my friend. "Ugh how much longer, I'm so hungry" she whined. "I already told you, if you eat, the dress might not be the right size. We've only been working on this dress since 9, it's not that bad." I say focused on the edge trim "We're almost done anyways" I roll my eyes. "I've been standing here for 2 hours, and I've had nothing to eat." Maleoria groans. I slightly whines as I prick myself with the needle as a girl comes bursting through the door. "Y/N, You have some really important mail. You have to look at this." the girl says waving a maroon envelope in the air. "Is it another bill or something?" I look up to face her, "No! It says its from a band. Heart... steel?" with intrigue I get up and head over to the girl. Grabbing the letter i usher her out.

After closing the door, i lock eyes with Maleoria. "Heartsteel? You ever hear of them?" The girl posing on my stand starts to freak out. "Ahhhhh! Oh my god, oh my god! You don't know Heartsteel!?!" "Woah chill out Mal, you almost broke my ears, and no I haven't hear of them. Are they big or something?" I walk to the desk and put the letter down. Moving toward the lady in the middle of the room I continue to finish the final touches on her outfit. Something I had been working on for a while now.

"Oh my god, so. They're this superrrr cute boy band. I think there's 6 of them, well 5 plus their producer. Which their producer is soooo hot, he's so my type. You know the band True Damage? Yeah his brother, Yasuo, Is in that. The main singer, Ezreal is super cute too. He would be such a good side piece for the fans. I've seen so many people tweeting at me saying we would be so cute together, Oh yeah! There's also K'Sante, but I heard he had a boyfriend. Speaking of boyfriendssss, you know who would be a great boyfriend for you, Aphelios, I think that's his name. He's the Instrumentalist and songwriter for the group. I also heard that he lost his voice. You two would be perfect for each other, you talk a lot and he can't. See perfect. Speaking of perfectttt. There's this one guy named Sett, he's like the dream man. Super tough and strong but I bet he has a soft spot. What a dream right? Oh and last but not least is Kayn. I don't really know that much about him aside from the fact that he's a rapper for the group."

With a shocked expression on my face i shake my head yes. "Wow that's a lot, you must really like them." carefully moving back I look at the outfit and smile. "And were done." I turn towards the desk and walk over to look at the letter. Maleoria keeps talking about the band. My hand hovers over the top as a open the envelope carefully. Inside the is scented letter, I scoff and mumble to myself "What is this, Legally blonde?" I took a cautious sniff of the letter and was delighted by the smell. "That's actually quite nice", I look over my shoulder toward Maleoria and interrupt her paragraph on how 'Hot' these boys were. "Hey you know I finished the dress, right?". With a shriek the girl gets off the stand and runs over to the window. "Ah! I love it so much! Y/N you are so talented girl!" She sits there and looks at herself in admiration. "God you have so much talent girl! Buttt can I get out of this? I need to eat so bad." I chuckle and nod my head yes. "I'll take you out to this small café I found the other day." I smile and put the letter back on my desk. Forgetting to read it.

"I'll be out in the car, come out when you're ready." I smile and head towards the door, grabbing my phone, keys and a hat. Heading out the door into the lobby of my shop. "Leaving so soon?" The girl from earlier asked "Yeah, Mal is hungry so im going to head out and grab some food with her, want anything?" "No thanks. But you're seriously going out like that?" She looks me up and down. I wasn't dressed that bad, just baggy sweats and a giant old band t-shirt. Along with a messy bun and black high tops. "Just because I make luxury clothes doesn't mean I wear them." I laugh and head out the front door of the shop.

Meanwhile..

Maleoria careful puts on her clothes. nothing special, just some jeans, an blue Embroidered Zip Up hoodie, and a Blue LA hat. After changing, she scanned the room to make sure the room was empty, then she sneaked over to desk and grabs the letter. She reads the letter word for word.

"Dear Y/N,

We have seen your designs and are asking for personal designs for an upcoming event. We are willing to pay big money, If you could so kindly reach back to us for a consultation. Our head estate is at 5 Weh'Le Pl, the number to call is xxx-xxx-xxxx.

Kind regards,

Heartsteel Manager, Alune!"

"Short but to the point, Oh shit look at the time" She places the letter on the desk and rushes out the door grabbing her bag and phone.

In the car... I sit listening to music waiting for Maleoria. "Hm, Heartsteel" I sit scrolling through my music app. "Oh here they are" I click the song called 'PARANOIA' Half way through the song the passenger door open and Maleoria sat down in the seat. "Alright lets go!" I nod and put the car into first gear. zooming down road down to the small café. A sign outside says 'Come on in! Were open till 9pm (new hours)" I park the car in front of the café parallel to the door. I put the car in park and exit, walking over to the passenger door. "After you" I smile and Maleoria chuckles. walking into the café our eyes scan the café. When all of a sudden, Maleoria grabs a hold of my hand and pulls me close. She whispers in my ear. "Don't make it obvious but look over at the corner near the far right. Thats"....
