Saving Caroline

Chapter 19

"Thank you," I say taking the mail from the mail man.

"My pleasure!" He smiles and walks away.

There is a magazine mixed in with the bills and late Christmas cards.

I look at the cover.

"Holy fuck!" I shout excitedly.

"What's wrong!" Danny runs into the living room soap suds still in his wet hair from the shower. He has a towel draped over him.

I show him the magazine cover.

"Holy fuck!" He says.

"'Introducing Payton McCain!'" I read.

They had choose the one where I sexually looked into the camera. "You sure you haven't modeled before?" Danny asks.

"Positive!" I laugh.

"I'm going to go finish my shower. Then we are celebrating." He smirks walking back to the bathroom.

My cell phone rings, It's Caroline. "You just turned every guy on in America!" She exclaims.

"That is an exaggeration," I laugh.

"No look on Twitter, Instagram, and check you snaps," She commands.

I put her on speaker, and scroll through my social media.

"Holy fuck," I shout, "I didn't think I was that sexy."

"You are apparently," She giggles.

The house phone rings. "I'll talk to you later," I say.

"I'll be over around eight tonight." She says and hangs up.

I answer the house phone.

"Hello?" I ask.

"The editors of the magazine choose you!" Ray congratulates.

"I know. My media is blowing up," I say.

"People find you very, well hot," Jay says.

"Thank you," I laugh.

"We want you and your boyfriend—" Ray begins.

"Fiancé," I correct.

"Right.  Anyway I need you two down here, Tuesday!" He says and hangs up before I can respond.

"So he wants us down there Tuesday," I say.

"Okay," Danny sighs.

"What?" I ask.

"I was hoping we could go see a movie," He suggests.

"After? This shit pays like four grand," I plead.

"Fine," He groans.

Caroline, Riley, and Jase burst through the door.

"So how does it feel to have every guy wanting to get in your pants?" Caroline laughs.

"I only need one guy for that," I kiss Danny.

"PDA!" Caroline shouts.

"My house!" I shout back.

"Our house," Danny corrects. I

roll my eyes and craw onto Danny's lap.

Caroline, Riley, and Jase sit on the couch beside us. Riley sits on Jase's lap.

"This is awkward for me," Caroline groans.
