Chapter Five - TAKE A PICTURE
" I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
I take a picture of you taking a picture of me
Tomorrow always happens too soon
I wish I had an electric moon
To save the light"
Take a picture - Carly Rae Jepsen
After a long day being the only person in the office working her ass off, Sophia finally got home.
Her phone had died once again and she didn't even know what time it was, except that it was night already.
All she wanted now was to have a snack and a long bath. So that was exactly what she did. After grabbing a few things in the kitchen she went to her bathroom and plugged her phone on the charger, turning the water on.
When her phone was on again she put some music on and went inside the bathtub, that seemed like heaven. A relaxing bath was all she needed.
Her mind had been wondering about Brie Williams and all the path she had in front of her and then she thought about the night of fun she had with Blake Thomas and how that made her feel things she shouldn't be feeling.
Her eyes were closed as she breathed deeply into a meditation state, taking a lot of time until she realized her phone was ringing.
Opening her eyes and drying her hand on the towel beside her, she extended her arm and grabbed her phone.
"Hi, Brie." She answered knowing who it was by the caller ID.
"How could you not tell me you were dating someone???" Brie asked in a very annoyed tone.
Sophia didn't even have what to say. She even considered asking if Brie had called the wrong number.
"Because I'm not?" She said, still confused as to what Brie was talking about.
"You don't need to hide. It's all over the tabloids." Her friend stated and suddenly Sophia started worrying, sitting up on the bathtub.
"Please explain." Sophie asked.
"Oh. You haven't seen it yet?" Brie thought out loud and when Sophie didn't say anything she continued. "There are pictures of you and that soccer player who won MVP going out of the event together. And also of you two leaving his hotel in the morning. It's a shame we can't see your face on the pictures but of course I recognized you and that killer dress you were wearing." Brie ranted and Sophie just stood there in the warm water with no reaction.
How could she be so stupid? She works with this kind of thing. She knows the papparazzi and how the media work. Of course they would follow the MVP.
"Are you there?" Brie asked after moments of silence.
"I am. I just... I barely know him. And I sure am not dating him." She stated still sounding surprised.
"That's a shame. He's hot." B said, clearly trying to lighten up the mood.
"Talking about hot players. I saw you with someone and you still haven't talked about him." Sophia changed the subject, thinking that maybe if she forgot about it the embarrassment would go away.
"Oh, Sophie. He is just so perfect. He approached me and congratulated me on winning and then he said he was a fan... It was just so perfect. And now he wants to take me out!!!" Brie was swooning by the time she ended the sentence and Sophie laughed at her friend. She was hooked.
"Good for you, B. Just be careful with the media attention that can cause. If you don't want rumors to go out you have to be extra careful..."
Brie interrupted Sophie. "I know, I know. He said he will take me somewhere no one can see us... So you don't have to worry."
