The Streets of New York

Chapter 7

Not like I cared anyway

Hailey's P.O.V

The next couple of days are the same as always. Wake up, go to work, come home, and then search for the mystery guy. I don't know what keeps motivating me to keep search for him, I know I'm never going to. I guess I'm just scared of forgeting him. Right now, I'm laying on the couch, watching the news, I laugh at the artical of a kitten trying to catch a bird. But of course they had to interupt it because you guessed it.... ONE DIRECTION. These days it feels like there always ruining things.

"Hi, I'm here with the famous one direction, and the screams of joy from teenage girls!" I role my eyes at her cheesy comment. "Please tell me Niall how do you feel about the achievement you just made?!"

"I couldn't be happier, and I can tell ya, it's only because of our amazing fans." The blonde one says.

"Louis?" The interviewer asked, cuing to the one in stripes to talk.

"I just wanted to start by saying-" I was interupted by a knock on the door. Good, its not like I cared. I shut of the tv, before walking over to the door.

I open it to reveal the one and only Matthew. "Oh, Hey Matthew, what brings you here?" I said trying to put on a believable smile.

"Hey Hailey, I was wondering if you ever thought about the question that I asked you earlier this week"

This is my chance, just let him down easy. Think about what Bella told you, do what's best for me, and not him. But I cant do that, he will be heart broken, and were not even going to find that dude, so I'll be forever alone *Cry.* But do I really want this? No. So just let him down easy.

"Um-" I started.

"Or if you haven't, thats fine too, I can give you more time, I don't want to rush you into anything, I mean thats what did before-"

"Matthew," I cut him off from his rambling. "why don't we go sit down." I asked, walking over to the couch.

"so.." Matt said getting anxious.

"Look, I have been thinking about it, and I really dont know how to put this, but," Come on Hailey, put it out there. "I'm sorry, but no" I didn't know what to do, so I just sat there looking and his face turn from happy, to disapointed. "I can assure you that it's not you It's me I'm just not ready for a relationship, and-"

"I understand Hailey, I'm just gonna get going, um, see you around?" Matthew said trying to get out of here as quickly as possible.

"Look I'm really sorry, I didn't mean to dissapoint you."

"Don't worry about it, I didn't expect you to say yes anyway." Once he said that, it made my heart shatter, what does he mean he didnt expect me to? Once he closed the door, I went back into the living room and thought about what he just said. Did he say that in a way to tell me somethig, did he tell me that to try and hurt me, or did he really think that I would say no? Maybe I'm just over thinking.

To calm me down, I went into the kitchen and made myself some tea before Bella gets here.

******

Once Bella gets here, we go straight up to my room, to the computer, to find the mystery dude AGAIN.

"Wait, you said that he had sunglasses on right?" Bella questioned.

"Yeah.." I really don't know where she's going with this I fell this anither one of her random questions."

"Did they look suspicious at all?" I laugh at her question.

"Bella, you making this sound like a crime scene where we're trying to find the murderer or something."

"I did didn't I?" She laughs at herself. "No, I'm serious did they look suspicious at all."

"I mean maybe, but what's even more questionable is that he had these two big men by his side." I stated, emotionless.

"WAIT, HAILS HOW COME YOU HAVEN'T TOLD ME THIS YET?!" Bella screamed jumping out of her seat faceplanting.

"It just now came to me, but this means nothing!" I'm so confused right now.

"Yes it does, if he has some cool shades on, he obviously is trying to hide himself from the people on the streets, and if he has some people that you described as 'two big men' obviously he has those men to protect him! Hailey do you know what this means?!"

"He has some trust issues?"

"No, Hailey he's probably a celebrity of some sort!"

"No, No, No, he can't be, do you know what this means, there is no chance of finding him, and if we do, he probably won't even remember me. And, if this does work out all work out, I will just get hate, and you know how I deal with hate." I ramble on.

"Honey, calm down, He's probably looking for you right now, I mean look at how hot you are, who can forget you? But, If you don't want to find him, we don't have to, just tell me"

Do I really not want to find him now, just because he's a celebrity? We've dedicated our work to trying to find him, and now we're just going to throw our work down the toilet? I think that would be very snobish of me, especially because my friends are willing to help.

"I think we should put the work we've already have to use, and keep searching for him," I said, finally making a decision.

"Are you sure, because we dont have to, this is one of those times where you just need to think about yourself again, and not others."

"No, I'm confident about it, we should at least try and find him, even though it's almost impossible because he's a celebrity, but we should at least try"

"Okay, Well, let's get started then."

*******

The next day is a photoshoot day, with not only me, but 3 other models. Most people would be excited to not have to be alone during a photo shoot, but for me, it's the complete opposite. Its not like I'm standing next to three other people who are just as pretty as me. I'm always the ugliest one. All eyes turn to me, with there eyes looking at me judging me with there every glance. It's like a game to people, 'Find the ugliest one!' and they always point to me.

People always ask me why I became a model if I'm so insecure about myself, but it wasn't really my choice. I try to shake all the memories out of my head before Zoey walks over.

"Hey girly, it's time to get ready, you okay?"

"Couldn't be better than ever," I convince, trying I put a smile on my face.

"Hailey, please don't worry about today, I know how you feel about these photo shoots, and trust me you have nothing to worry about, if anything they should be worried about standing next to someone as beautiful as you," Zoey assured me, as I pull her into a hug.

"Thank you Zoey, how about we go get ready?"
