Red String Attachments

    It was Monday morning and Layla was a nervous wreck, Today was the day she went out to Eastern High the local high school to look for "New Talent".

She had woken up earlier than usually and ditched the plain dress shirt and pencil skirt.

Layla needed to make a good impression on the Art students.If she wanted one of them to open up to her.

She was currently standing in front of the school looking like a lost puppy. Rubbing her sweaty hands on her jeans, she let out a shaky breath and walked inside.

This was it Layla thought her whole career depended on that one student.

"Hello you must be Ms.Alcott From Mr.Swits Art firm." standing in front of Laya was a blond bombshell, all in all, she was beautiful and judging by they way she dressed she was only a couple of years older than Layla was.

"Yes, that's right, but you can just call me Layla...Um, you would be?" she had not meant for the last part to come out so rude, but it did.

"Oh forgive me! I'm Rose the TA for Mrs.Rolhand the art teacher." But Rose didn't seem to notice."I'm here to show you to the art room." She said with a smile that reached her eyes.

"Thank you but I would have been able to find it myself." Layla had no idea what had caused her to act so hostile...Must be the stress she thought.

"None the less I am here already so please let me show you the way." They began to walk down the empty halls in complete silence but just as the were about to walk into the art building, Rose turned to face Layla.

" You have no idea what a great opportunity this will be for the art students ,they work really hard you know?"

"I'm sure they do Rose they made it into nationals three times in a row already you don't need to worry. " Layla felt herself relax at Rose's words, she really cared for the art students.

"I know I need not worry, but I just feel so bad that only one student will be picked, they are very talented students." Rose's hand was clutching the doorknob so hard her knucks were turning white, the ring on her hand seemed to be tightly pressing on her finger.

"Please don't worry about that right now Rose." Layla put her hand over Rose's to try to calm her down."It won't do you any good."

Sighing Rose let go" You're right, forgive me."Clearing her throat, she looked back at Layla."Well, shall we head inside?"

Nodding her head Layla prepared herself, she had forgotten about how nervous she was.

All heads turned when Layla and Rose walked in. It was quite for the first few minutes while everyone tried to figure out just who the red headed lady was.

It must had suddenly hit them, because soon after hushed voices burst through the room.

"Hush now everyone!!" The teacher, Mrs.Rolhand tried to calm her students.

as the class began to settle down, Mrs.Rolhand began to talk.

"Now I have been saying for the past week that we would have a special guest come in, this is Ms.Aloctt From Swit's Art, Now as many of you know Swit's art is a worldwide Art company that also offers arts students a full scholarship ride to the school of their choice."

Upon hearing this, all the students once again began to talk.

"We not only scout famous Artist but we start looking for them young, Swit's agency company goes out and scouts young teens getting to them early and signing them up with our company."
