His Assistant [Milo Manheim]

Lost Love

Milo sulked in his apartment. Mac Miller's Love Lost blasting through his speakers as he brought yet another cold bottle to his lips.

He wasn't drunk, he wasn't even trying to get drink. He was just.. sulking.

The conversation he had had with Gavin was in a loop in his head.
She had slept with that Abercrombie model looking prick. Huffing in disbelief he brought the bottle back to his lips.

Milo was lost... every moment he had ever shared intimately with Carson suddenly colliding with the endless loop of Gavin's confession. Filled with questions and absolutely no answers he felt his heart continue to sink.

Was it true?
Did he really mean absolutely nothing to her?

...

A few days later..

Carson sighed, tugging at her clothes as she stood in front of the mirror. She looked great, per usual. A small smile tugged at her lips, appreciating the way she looked in her blouse and black high waisted linen pants, but she just wasn't sure how to feel about where she was going.

While her attempts at a total career change weren't exactly in the cards, there was an opening with someone she knew very well, respected and loved dearly.

thee, Martha Gay Harden

She had landed a role on what was projected to be a hit tv series, at least that's what she was telling everyone. With her newfound role she realized she would need another assistant. Someone to be there for her on set and help her keep up with her day-to-day schedule, emails, errands..etc.

This job would be exciting and exactly what she missed when working with Camryn, something that she had hoped she could set up and pull off for Milo.. but we all saw how that went.

"Alright Carson, what do we have." Martha smiled; her eyes sparkled as her assistant shot her a familiar smile. "I have your oat milk latte, hot, with a dash of cinnamon already stirred." Handing her coffee over Martha was already ecstatic. She wouldn't say it out loud, but she had secretly been hoping that Carson would be able to take over as her assistant.

"Your driver Tony is already outside, and we are ready to head to set. You also have a quick zoom interview with Woman's Magazine. I have the preapproved list of questions for you to look over in the car."

"Excellent my dear. Let's head out, shall we?"

....

"Oh Skylar! I would love for you to meet my new assistant!" Carson typically didn't get star struck but maybe this wasn't exactly about the fame.. Skylar Astin was just freaking adorable.

"S-so nice to meet you, I'm Carson." She winced as she fumbled over her words, luckily for her Skylar didn't seem to care or notice.

"Hi! Martha's been talking about you all week." Raising his eyebrow, it seemed as if he was giving her a once over. "Now I'm curious if you're as amazing as she says.. You're a lot younger than I expected." Carson blinked, not sure how to take that as Skylar only grinned.

"Um thanks?"
"Anytime. See you around Carson."

"He's so handsome isn't he.."

"Martha.." Carson laughed, shaking her head as her new boss only gave her a knowing smile. "Well, I'm not blind Carson."
