On the side is Halsey's top for the interview!

"Kendall Jenner"
I almost spit out the coffee I was drinking when hearing the name. I was currently on call with Ryan who has found me a person to interview. Kendall Jenner isn't exactly on my list of 'People I Like' but at the same time, I was fangirling.
"H-how did you? When? How?" I asked frantically gripping the phone to my ear. I heard him chuckling on the other line. "I know people remember?" He said and I mentally rolled my eyes. "Oh yeah" I said bluntly. "When am I meeting her?"
"She'll meet you tomorrow night at the sushi bar on 53rd street. That's at downtown. Wear something eye catching since there will be paparazzi. Maybe some heels?" He said. I gulped and nodded even though he couldn't see me doing it.
I thanked Ryan a million times before we exchanged our bye's. Obviously, Kendall Jenner would outshine me whatever I wore. Interviewing her was one thing but finding what to wear was an even bigger problem. I caught myself biting my nails and quickly stopped.
I need Lana.
She was spending time with Ashton since he's leaving in two days. Where has the time gone? I'm still a bit confused on why they aren't a thing yet. Maybe Ashton is waiting for the right moment, who knows? I just need my best friend for a few hours.
I only call Lana if it's an emergency since she's on her phone 24/7 and can see my texts once I send them. I clicked on her contact and it started ringing. On the second ring, she answered.
"Lana speaking"
"I have to tell you something"
"What is it?"
"I'm interviewing Kendall Jenner tomorrow and I need help picking out what to wear. Ryan said something formal but not too much. Like heels? Lana I don't eve-"
"Say no more. I'm coming"
And with that, I heard Ashton yelling a quick bye before Lana hung up.

Maybe some black skinny jeans and white wedges?" Lana said as she threw me a pair. I hesitantly caught them since I had a bunch of stuff in my hands. "Catch" she said throwing some skinny jeans which landed on my head. I groaned and she laughed at me.
Lana suggested to look in her closet since all I have in mine are skinny jeans and shirts. A few dresses too but Lana urged me to wear jeans since my legs look "firm and sexy". I just went along with it.
"I need a blouse but something sleeveless because it's hot" I suggested setting down the pile of clothes. Sweat was beading down my forehead. Being inside a closet for 2 hours really traps in heat. I'm surprised Lana hasn't had a heat stroke from looking through her clothes.
"This. This is the one" Lana said holding up a laced crop top thing. It did look pretty and I was imagining it with black jeans and wedges. My best friend should be a fashion designer. Then again, her fashion line would be empty considering she's be too lazy to actually make clothes.
"Let's just clean this up tomorrow. Ashton's been waiting for us on the couch for hours" she said chuckling. I nodded and hung the top with a hanger. I followed her outside but before I could walk through the doorway that lead to the living room, Lana stopped me.
She leaned against the wall and listened intently. I heard Ashton talking to someone, probably on the phone. "Stop eavesdropping and go" I whisper-yelled but she put her hand in my face to shush me.
"I got it? Oh my god thank you so much." Ashton said quietly but loud enough to show his excitement. "I'll be checking it out again tomorrow. Thank you again!" He said and we heard the beeping, meaning he hung up. Lana motioned for me to wait a bit before we walked in.
Ashton was sitting on the couch grinning but jumped slightly when Lana and I walked towards him. He scooted a bit and patted the the seat next to him. I sat on a reclining chair and as Lana sat down next to him, she asked "why are you smiling so much?"
"Because I see you're beautiful face" he smiled which made her cheeks go red. "I heard you talking to someone. Who was it?" She asked tilting her head questioningly. He bit his lip before saying, "Myself"
"Yourself?"
"Yeah er I was talking to myself- yeah! Myself. I do that sometimes, it's just ma thang" he said but she looked at him with a confused expression. He looked relieved when she shrugged if off and leaned her head against his shoulder.
"Do you have to leave so soon Ash?" I asked changing the subject. I obviously knew he was hiding something from Lana. I'll have to find out. He sighed sadly at me then looked back at Lana who was almost half asleep. He combed her hair gently and once again, I was jealous of their almost-but-not-there-relationship.
"I really don't want to leave but It's just work Ash" he said leaning his head on Lana who was now sleeping. He took out his phone from his pocket and sighed looking at the time. "I better get going" he said getting up and laying Lana down on on the couch.
"I'll walk you down" I said also getting up. I grabbed the keys from the little bowl by the door and slipped on some flip flops. Ashton put on his shoes and I opened the door. We walked down the hall in silence and I wondered why I even wanted to walk him down. Oh wait, now I remember.
I stopped in front of him and he bumped into my back. I stumbled forward but quickly faced him as he gave me a confused look. Before he could talk, I held my hand up. "Spill Ashton" I said. He furrowed his eyebrows. "Spill what?"
"I heard you talking on the phone- actually Lana and I did. Obviously you were trying to hide it earlier" I said looking at the phone in his hands. He bit his lip and I stood there crossing my arms. "Fine. But please, you can not tell Lana okay?" He said with a pleading look. I nodded.
"When we were still in Salzburg, I got a call saying that I had a job transfer to the studio in Beverly Hills. Which I accepted obviously because it pays a lot." He said laughing and I just smiled and rolled my eyes.
"So the whole time I was here, I've been trying to find an apartment and I got one! 20 minutes away from you guys. It supposed to be a surprise for you and Lana but I guess I just told you" he said huffing and crossing his arms over his chest.
I was surprised that Ashton even had time to go apartment hunting since he spent most of his time with Lana. But, I was insanely happy that he's moving here. "Holy shit Ash, that's great!" I said and he looked at me smiling. "Yeah, the landlord finally called me today saying I could move in tomorrow. I was gonna show you guys soon"
I nodded. We still stood there because I had an question to ask but I couldn't remember it. Curse you short term memory. "Oh uh so why haven't you asked out Lana yet?" I asked smirking at him and he looked at me with a surprised expression.
"Don't worry, I have a perfect way to ask her." He said. Lana and him were otp to me. They're gonna make cute babies someday. Did I really just think that? Oh gosh. "My taxi is here by the way" he said and I looked behind me seeing the yellow car parked.
"Right, I'll see you tomorrow Ash" I said as I gave him a quick hug with a pat on the back. "Night Ash" he said winking and I laughed at our nicknames.
