Seeing that my mind was already made up, the nerves had evaporated and I even managed to stomach a real breakfast, not just an apple and coffee. I already texted Mrs Bensimone and she said she would have my contract ready by tomorrow. I still haven't heard from Scott but somehow that feeling towards him is still very much alive. He's all I can think of and seeing his face on his profile picture makes everything much worse. It's been almost a week, where the hell could he be? What if he's met someone else and they eloped? Or better yet, he went on a bae-cation to a lovely island..

I haven't spoken to my mom since last night and I couldn't avoid her even if I wanted to because she has invited me over for dinner tonight. How convenient seeing that I'm now with the other side. I wonder how long I can keep this away from her and Mr's Bensimone and I really need to discuss that invisibility thing. Under no circumstances will my name be mentioned in the same sentence as BENSIMONE and I will always wear a disguise when I'm not working from my laptop at home. A fashionable disguise of course.

the invisible publicist.. What a joke.
But it's not impossible.

It was five and I was getting dressed. I opted for a black crop with a grey figure hugging knee-length skirt and black gladiator sandals to match. I grabbed my Chanel bag and as I was about to open my door, Scott was standing there. It looked like he was just about to knock.
Perfect timing I guess but why is he here and why didn't he call me?
Or am I as equally guilty for not even attempting to call him?
Why am I acting like his girlfriend anyway..

He flashed me a smile and scoped my outfit before he asked me this.
"Going somewhere?"
"Yes actually my mom invited me over for dinner" I said, trying hard not to look into his eyes.
"You're avoiding eye contact Rue.. I'm sorry for being MIA it's just that I had to shoot some models at a private island for our new campaign and there is literally zero reception there. I was going to call you I swear, am I forgiven?" He said with a lil pout
"It's going to take more than a lil pout for me to forgive you so maybe drinks on you tomorrow night then we will discuss your next offer in Rue's forgiveness-trials" I managed to say all that with a straight face.
"Okay then, tomorrow 7pm. Wear something sexy" he winked and left.

The nerve of this guy to just come up to my doorstep and manage to lure me back into his spell.

What if he's the one to save me from myself? The one I fall in love with? The one who tames Rue..

I pulled up to my parents driveway and made my way to the dining area where my mom had already set the table.

How will I even get through this night when I feel like I have betrayal stamped in red on my forehead..
