Personal affairs

The Interview.

Alexandra's POV

All a girl wants in life is 3 things, money, to travel the world, and find her person, me on the other hand I only want 2/3, money and to travel the world and hopefully get away from my abusive boyfriend. Everyday is something different with him, but hopefully I will find out today if it's the day things switch around for good.

My best friend rayne had set me up an interview with some guy named Ronnie radke, he has his own band and is currently on the hunt for a new personal assistant, why he needs one I have no idea but I heard the pay was outstanding and I'd get to go on tour with him and the band and also my best friend.

I walk out of the bathroom fixing my outfit. I have on a black tank top body suit, with super ripped black skinny jeans. ( rayne said if I dress too professional there's no way in hell Ronnie would give me the job, so I'm going for just my normal day to day look.)

I grab my black heel boots from the closet and quickly check myself in the mirror. I check the time 12:00pm, perfect I still have time. I grab my small handbag and phone and run out of the bedroom grabbing my car keys, when all of a sudden I hear the front door to my apartment being unlocked. Fuck it's Milo, the abusive boyfriend I mentioned before, if he knows I'm going to this interview it's over for me.

He steps inside, the home and gives me a smile but I know it's all fake.

" well well, what do we have here? A beautiful lady all dressed up where are you going?" He asks grabbing my waist as I look away and step back

" I'm going to lunch with rayne. Sorry girls only." I say to him making eye contact hoping it's believable

He stares at me for a moment and furrows his brows slightly.

" is that all you're doing?" He says to me folding his arms his stare is burning into me

" maybe go shopping for a bit. I'll be back in a little while. Don't wait up for me." I say to him as I quickly make my exit and start fast walking to the elevator.

I get in and shut the doors and hit the parking garage button, the elevator jolts but begins its descent. I sigh a little and check my phone 12:10. Okay I still have time I can make it. I'm just glad nothing back fired, I don't know if I would have been able to show up in tears and completely broke down. I probably would have missed it.

The elevator dings and I step out into the parking garage and walk to my car getting and and beginning my journey to the address rayne had sent me a few days ago. Please let this work, I can't deal with my life any longer staying with Milo it has been the worst 2 years of my life but luckily he allowed me to keep rayne in my life since her and I have been friends since elementary school.

I finally make it to the address and it almost looks like a home. It's massive with a big open driveway and a front gate. I press the button and the gate opens and I drive through. I shot a text to rayne to let her know I'm here and sure enough she's standing on the front porch waving to me with a big smile.

" hey love! She says to me coming around to my car and giving me a hug

" hey ray, sorry there was a bit of traffic. " I say to her returning her hug and following her into the house

" it's all good Ronnie isn't quite here yet himself, there was an issue at the studio but he should be here any minute. How did Milo take it?" She asked me pouring me a glass of something strong

" I told him we were going to lunch then shopping, I don't know if he believed it though." I say shaking my head and as I'm taking a sip of my drink the front door opens wide

" no no, just tell him I will come by in 2 hours we have to figure this out before tour." A tall man says as he walks into the home another man following in suit behind him.

Both men were tall one was covered in a tattoo that was completely black, long black hair, a lace see through button up and black slacks, and looked like a total beef castle and the other had black jeans and a muscle band tee on and he had blonde hair blue eyes, he was muscular but not as much as the first man. As they both walk by us the main man on the phone locked eyes with me before continuing down the dimly lit hallway.

" that's Ronnie, and Luke holland his tour drummer who's trying to be in the band full time." Rayne whispers to me as we watch them disappear into a room.

" definitely look like rock band artists to me." I say with a small smile

Me and rayne catch up for a few minutes before Ronnie finally made his appearance again with Luke right next to him.

" you must be Alexandra, rayne has told me a few things about you." Ronnie says shaking my hand

" all good I hope, I'm here for the interview." I say keeping eye contact with him as he now folds his arms and nods his head

" right then, this way." He says and walks towards the hallway and I follow in suit behind him

I turn around one last time and rayne gives me a thumbs up and a smile. Rayne does more so of the fashion side of things I guess you could call it a personal stylist. Ronnie opens the door and lets me in shutting it behind us. He motions for me to take a seat so I do so and set my small handbag down next to me. He sits in the chair behind the desk and pulls out his computer, then looks at me intently.

" so Alexandra, you have any prior experience in this business?" He asks me leaning forward on his elbows and I nearly thought his shirt was gonna pop wide open

" just Alexa.... And yes I do actually I was a personal assistant for 4 years, but had to stop because some things had come up." I say sitting up straight but looking down a little from his gaze as I say the last part

" okay, Alexa, are you willing to go from city to city state to state?" He asks me and I look up meeting his gaze again

" I love to travel, so I don't mind." I tell him and he nods

" long hours, you will be on call at all times. Can you handle that?" He asks me and I think for a second if My phone goes off at 3am Milo will get suspicious and I will probably get a punishment for it but what the hell maybe this could be an opportunity for me to get the hell out

" yes sir, always have my ringer on, and I don't actually live far from her." I tell him keeping eye contact and giving him a shy smile

He smirks leaning back in his chair, putting his hands together, making me slightly nervous. He stares at me for a few minutes I'm sure looking over the entirety of me.

" stand up." He says to me and I furrow my brows

" why do I need to stand in an interview?" I say to him folding my arms

" I want to get a good look at you, it's not just about your experience it's about will your look fit with us." He says leaning forward again and I don't hesitate and stand up spinning around slowly, then sit back down

" hmm, alright. I'll try you out but if I don't deem you fit before tour I will send you on your way." He says standing up and I stand with him as he comes around the desk

" come back tomorrow, let's say 9am? And keep your phone close just in case." He says as he towers over me and I can tell my head just reaches his shoulder. Fucking beef castle.

" yes sir. I will see you then." I say and he opens the door letting us out

I walk back down the hallway and he disappears into the living room with Luke probably talking about the business they had to deal with earlier. Rayne meets me by the front door a smile on her face.

" sooooo did you get it?" She asks me softly with a smile

" yes I got it rayne, thank you so much." I say to her giving her a big hug and she returns it

" well I best be on my way Milo will be upset if I'm not home in a little while." I say to her opening the front door and she manages a nod as she closes it shut

I begin walking to my car when.
