Picture of Richie Moore on the side

This is it. I thought as I got out of the car. This is the day that I get on a flight and go to L.A. This is my big break.
".....and don't forget to eat. Did you pack clean underwear sweetie? And please don't tell me you forgot your toothbrush-"

"I think she can handle herself, love." I smiled gratefully at Rob.

That's right folks. My mother had just asked me if I had packed clean underwear in front of several other people...ON THE AIRPORT!! I saw several heads turn our way as I face palmed myself.
"Moommmmm....why would I forget to eat!?!? And yes I packed my toothbrush...and underwear. Gawd I'm not 5."
I said as I pouted.
" I know I know. I'm just worried." She said as she kissed my cheek.
"Good luck kiddo."

"Bye guys, I'll text you once I get there. Bye Jess."
She had been quiet all this time but spoke up, "Bye kat, don't forget your luggage at the airport and don't think of final destination and air crash investigation. Don't worry you'll not die on the plane."
Some friend.
"Shut up! Bitch.....thanks alot now I won't be able to think about anything else."
She just grinned at me as she hugged me.

I left after saying goodbye.
***********

2 hours. 2 motherfucking hours at the airport. Why?! Because my flight got delayed.
I sat grumpily at the airport next to a wailing kid. What is the deal with crying kids and their parents...or is it the parents that are crying?
No but seriously. Everywhere you go there's atleast one crying baby. And they follow you everywhere. In the train, airplane, bus, amusement parks...
Truth be told, I hate crying babies. I swear a person who preached non violence could go rogue after hearing a crying baby.
I. Do. Not. Want. To. Have. Kids.
My poor mom though. How did she not kill me if I cried this much?

"Pay attention all passengers for direct flight to LA, no. 34168, you are now free to board your flight"
Sweet mother of Jesus!! Thank you Lord!!
I took my bags and practically ran to the plane. I totally would've kissed the plane had I not been stared at by the other passengers.

I put my luggage in the compartment above my seat and sat down on the seat next to the window.

"Excuse me. I believe this is my seat."
I looked up to see a hot guy with an Australian accent looking down at me.
"Hot.....uhmm uhh sorry...what?!"
Shit I had not said that out loud!! What was wrong with me?!

He simply smiled at my stuttering self and repeated his earlier sentence because I was obviously too busy drooling over his fine self.
"I said that this is my seat, but no worries you can sit there."

"Oh well good cuz I had no plans to get up. I like windows."
I like windows!! Seriously. I think Apple's better. Oh wait what was I talking about?

He smirked as he sat down next to me.
"Hi, Alec."
Alec Ryder!!? I thought thinking about the one from The bad boy stole my bra. I loved that book.
"Hi, Kate."

"Nice to meet you Kate."

"Likewise."
I quickly turned my attention to my cat ear headphones. They were a gift from Rob. I loved them. I put them on and played my playlist.
Aah EXO! My favorite kpop band.

I turned my head to see Alec reading a book.
"Which book are you reading?"
Why you gotta be so nosey?!

"Oh uhh...."
When I saw what he was reading I swear I choked on my own spit. Twilight!?! Are you kidding me. No wonder he was embarrassed. Wait....he's gay isn't he? I knew it. I bloody knew it!

"You're gay?"
I did not just ask him that. How rude of me.

"Yeah...but twilight's a new low huh?"

"Not at all. It's fantasy. I've read it myself. Although the parody ruined it for me."
He chuckled.
Note to self: with my luck, all hot guys on this planet are gay.

"So, you live in LA?" He asked.

"No, I'm going for a modelling internship offered by Richie Moore."
I told him with a proud look on my face.
"Nice. He's hot huh?"

"That's an understatement. I hope he's not gay."
I mumbled the last part but he cocked an eyebrow telling me he had infact heard what I said. Hot damn.

"Well..uhm...my theory is that my luck is so bad that all guys that I find hot are either gay, or cheating bastards."

"You think I'm hot?" He said it more of a statement rather than a question.
"Don't flatter your fine self and continue reading about the sparkling vampire who couldn't keep it in his pants and the over possessive werewolf and the white chick."

"You ruined it for me there Kate. I actually happened to have a crush on Cullen." He said with a frown.
Who didn't. But while people were fighting over team Edward or team Jacob I was all for team Alice. She was my favorite. By the way I'm straight in case you're wondering.

I grinned at him as I continued my playlist.

After what seemed like an eternity, we finally landed in LA.
I stretched and yawned like a cat.
"Jeez girl, I'm not your private bed."
I didn't realised I had been sleeping on Alec's shoulder.
"Yeah but it's your fault that you're so comfy so suck it up."

We got off the plane and exchanged numbers because I needed a gay best friend.
I saw a sign Katherine Pettigrew raised, as I walked out with my luggage.
I followed the buff chauffeur to a limo. Holy hades. It was a big ass limo. And black too, my favorite colour.
I noticed it had a TV and speakers. Skullcandy. Cool.
And there was a.....a ... A PIZZA!!! A CHEESE, PINEAPPLE, JALAPEÑO PIZZA!!
I was gonna have to thank Richie for this.
"Thank you Lord, I was starving."
I dug into the pizza as I took the remote from the holder to turn on the TV.
Great even the TV wasn't getting turned on by me.
Turns out the remote wasn't for the TV. It was for the little screen that separated the driver seats from the back ones.

"Yes mam?"
"Oh uh...I thought this was the remote for the TV."

"Oh sorry mam, the TV remote is broken."

"No problem, and call me Kate. Mam is weird."

After a while we got talking about his life. Apparently his girlfriend was cheating on him and I told him to break up with her. Obviously. He said that's what he was gonna do. He was in his mid thirties.
"Don't worry Javier, I'll set you up with one of my mom's sisters. They're gorgeous."
He blushed and murmured a thanks.

We didn't even know each other 20 minutes ago and now he was putting his life story to me. Why can I say? I'm fabulous.

We reached our destination soon. I don't know what I had expected but this??
What is this? A sorority house??
"It's a mansion where all the models live."
"I'm not a model yet."

"Oh, you will be soon mam...uhh..Kate."
Holy guacamole. This was a big ass mansion. And I was gonna be living here?
Okay...let the fun begin.
