Odell Quickies

Celebrity Crush

*red carpet interview

The blonde correspondent smiles cheerfully at Odell Beckham Jr. as he walked up to her little section on the red carpet. Odell was dappered down in a black suit, accented with a red tie and pocket handkerchief. His gold chains hang stylishly down his chest as he posed for red carpet photos. Finally reaching her area of the carpet he stopped and flashed a smile. "The man of the evening...Mr. Beckham." They shook hands.

"Please, please call me Odell. You make me feel old calling me that." He joked kindly.

"You look fantastic today Odell, very classy." She touched flirtatiously on his shoulder. "So how does it feel to be nominated for some of the ceremony's most pined after awards?" Odell smiled and scratched the back of his ear and smirked.

"Feels good, you know it's always a blessing to be recognized for your accomplishments during the season."

The interview went on like any normal one when the reporter squeezed out a quick question, "Odell, you're one of the country's most eligible bachelors right now, are there any lovely women in your life at the moment?"

"Nah, not at all. I got my eye on a couple people though." He scanned the red carpet, waving at his good friend Victor as he passed by.

"Care to share any names?" The reporter asked nosily.

"I'll say one, Christiana, I see you sweetheart." He winked into the camera and walked off.

In the comfort of her own home, Christiana lounged in a pair of baggy sweats with her auburn hair tied back into a loose ponytail. Munching on a bowl of popcorn, she was disturbed by her phone buzzing and ringing every second. She tried hard to ignore it but she finally gave in and scrolled down her Notification Center. 20 texts, 500 mentions on Twitter, and a few hundred tags on Instagram, she read through a few.

@OBJ_3 and @iamchrissyt would look so great together😱😱😱
I can't believe @OBJ_3 just hit on @iamchrissyt thru a red carpet interview #goals 😂😂

Christiana switched over to her texts. Her assistant/best friend had sent her a video with the message: GIRL YOU BETTA GETCHU SOME!

She watched the clip of him talking about her and smirked. He was a cutie, not quite her type but she'd heard great things about him around the industry. Drake, her close guy friend, praised him actually. With her smile wide she changed the TV in her bedroom to the award show he was at to watch him.

@OBJ_3 I appreciate the shoutout; I see you too 😘

Her mentions went crazy yet again, she tapped the link to his page and followed him, she was interested in getting to know him.

Just a year before, she'd been involved with another artist and was taking a break from the field of dating. She figured it'd been a long enough break, why not? Her phone lit up next to her, this time a direct message from Odell.

Hey beautiful, glad to see you were watching.

I actually wasn't. After you did it my
phone was going crazy.

We can't win them all.
I'd love to take you to dinner

I'd love that, here call me when you have the chance.

Christiana sat across from Odell at a very high class restaurant in South Beach, Miami. The two were hitting it off very well, she felt very comfortable around him and their connection was as if they'd known each other for years. Odell sipped on his flute of champagne, his eyes focused on Christiana and Christiana only which she found refreshing. Not once had he looked away to his phone or excused himself to talk any calls.

"I'm really enjoying myself tonight." Christiana flipped her long bangs out of her face and smiled.

"Me too. Good things come to those who wait." Odell responded with his hand resting atop hers. "I've had my eye on you since college, I'm just excited I have the opportunity to sit down and enjoy this meal with you." He licked his lip seductively.

"Wow, so you were waiting for things to go sour with my ex, huh?" She joked, giggling discreetly.

"Nah," he said defensively, "just admiring from afar, and taking a chance when the door was reopened." They stared at each other in silence, trying to read each other. "You've always been my celebrity crush."

"I'm flattered," Christiana waved their waiter down for the check, "maybe we can do this another time." She smiled politely, sliding out her credit card to pay.

"No, no. I got this." He pushed her hand away gently and pulled out enough cash to spot the bill and a generous tip. Like a gentleman, he led her out of the exit to where her car was waiting. Paparazzi swarmed them as she sat in the backseat, rolling her window down just enough to see Odell. "So there's a chance for a next time?"

"Most definitely wonder boy, you have my number, don't hesitate to use it." Blowing a flirtatious kiss, she rolled up her window, ignoring questions from the annoying paps.
