Chapter 27-New Yorks Princess is Sierra Rose!
We wrap up several hours later, they don't bother taking off my makeup or take out my waterfall braid. Juliano puts all of the shots on to a projector that projects back on to the wall where I had just modelled. We all gather around I squeal at the pictures that flash up on to the screen.
"Where will these photos go?" I ask.
"Into your portfolio, to your parents and friends, to my catalogue on the front cover and the billboard outside my building. But I will need your parents conformation to the catalogue and billboard" Juliano says.
I grab Lennie's arm "Catalogue and billboards?"
He nods "The shots were amazing Sierra, I can't let somebody like you leave this room without something affecting their future. In a good way"
"How does this affect her future?" James asks slipping an arm around my waist.
"Well being the face of my company can earn up thousands a year, modelling agencies will be open to you and of course other shoots and fashion shows. This can also affect your parents, they could get more companies in willing to supply their work if they know the inside story. That's if you fully commit which I suggest you do" He explains.
I nod, I didn't need the money I had everything I needed, I didn't care about modelling agencies, but I did care about helping my family in every single way. I could help with Aranea and have enough money to buy my own way into college and my own apartment.
"What about my parents?" I ask leaning against James.
"Let me worry about them. So Sierra Rose, are you willing to my companies face?" He asks with his hands clapped together, his eyes start to take form as if he was some pleading puppy.
"Yes" I say.
Juliano smiles "I will have the documents to be signed by you personally and your parents to sign by Wednesday"
Lennie steps forward with Peter "This is going to be such a great article for the school!" She squeals taking out her notepad.
"Hey this article is going to be known all over the country by Friday" Gabriel laughs.
"We are going to need some pictures with you and Juliano obviously, and maybe some exclusive pictures from the shoot?" Lennie asks with a polite face.
Juliano cautiously nods, I step by Juliano's side and Peter takes the picture in one single flash. Instead of having Juliano do it where he takes about a thousand shots just perfect a single pose.
After a few last shots, we exit through the elevator. Peter pokes the back of my shoulder "Don't you have to return the clothes?"
I look down at my outfit, I'm still fully dressed in Juliano's outfit. Juliano appears from behind a corner "Oh just return them on your next visit" He says.
I smile and put my jacket back on and pull my bag on to my shoulders. We all descend into the elevator Gabriel pushes the button for the first floor and it finally starts to move. We all stand in small corners, except for me and James as his arm hangs on my shoulder and he kisses my cheek.
"Can you not?" Peter snaps.
"He's right" I say to James.
James laughed and pulls me tighter towards him "Didn't say he was the boss of us" He laughs.
"I have to agree with him New Yorks Princess" Lennie agrees.
I laugh "New Yorks Princess?"
She nods "Yeah I was thinking of a title for the article, then of how the public sees Sierra Rose Lawson. You are beautiful, stunning but behind closed doors there is always another story"
"What Princess do you know that has another story?" Gabriel laughs.
"Well, it's like Will and Kate. We know them in their public image, but their has to be more behind the doors in their castle. And that was how New Yorks Princess was formed" She explains.
Thank you Lennie for wrecking my life. I thought as the elevator doors opened wide to the first floor. And thank you for being apart of what's left.

When Monday morning rolled in my parents sat at the dining table with the Times right in front of them, my face along with my parents. Dinner party with the Lawson's: special guest Sierra Lawson and Gabriel Lancaster!
I cringed at the title and sank in my seat opposite Mom and Dad "So how did everybody sleep?" I ask as Bernie thrusted my breakfast in front of me.
"Sierra, read the small print" Dad asks.
I do as he says :Sierra Rose Lawson has finally came out of her shell, at a SLA dinner party hosted by Hannah and Michael Lawson. The daughter of the world known scientists made an entrance showing off who she has become the last time we saw her. Sierra was last seen in the public eye over 3 years ago after she went into hiding rumoured to be due to depression and anxiety. But this was not the same gawky 13 year old we were last aquatinted with.
Now the 16 year old is finally out of her shell she truly gave us an insider into her new life now that she's out. Now she is dating the handsome James Nicholas Dey who is the owner of Dey Incorporation which specialise in military weapons. Another insider is she is long term friends with an internationally known pop star Gabriel Lancaster who made a special appearance at the dinner party. The pop star is now rumoured to be living in a condo on the upper west side taking a break from his world tour. But that is not the last of Sierra, a tip off has been made that she is now the face of Caste fashion, owned by Juliano Lancaster father to Gabriel Lancaster.
The girl we once knew has certainly gone and a now vibrant model has entered the world. Read on to page 5 to find the guest list and what went down at the Lawson's dinner party!
I looked up to my parents "What's so bad about this?" I ask "The press is happy about my return and the accusations haven't started"
"The entire article is about you Sierra, all of them. All of the newspapers have your face plastered over them, we were hoping it could be a family article about all of us. We tried so hard with the press, talking about our laboratory and the new company but all we find is you" Dad snaps.
"We wanted you to have a normal life again Sierra, we wanted you to just fade behind us so we don't have anything like we did a few years ago. Let alone you actually got the Caste job which we hoped you wouldn't" Mom tells me.
I sink back in my seat "Thanks for being supportive, and I did take the job. I'm going to become the face of Caste and be the White Widow"
"We are trying to do what's best for you Sierra and being the face of a world known company isn't playing it safe"
"Well luckily White Widow doesn't!" I shout, picking up my bag and running out of the door.
