Nine - The Date

I woke up the next morning at 8am, with a weird sensation in my body. It was excitement and anxiety and happiness and terror and grateful and excitement and happiness. It was too many things, which caused me to scream into my pillow. I needed to understand and fully realise that this was just business. I mean, there was nothing wrong with getting with Cris, but I don't want a relationship for a while, and not only that, I just feel as though he could do a lot better. I took a deep breath, I didn't need to go into all these details at the moment, it's the date tonight, and if it fucks up then it fucks up. And I won't need to worry about any of this.

I showered and turned the T.V on. E! News is always a great way to start the day,seeing what kind of crap they stir up.

"...Lima's nudes did indeed leak, but in the mirror, there was also Pitbulls signature sunglasses, and half of a figure that looked just like his." Maria Menounos said, pointing at a picture of Adriana Lima, with blurred boobies and a blurred vagina, with a figure who looked just like Pitbull in the background.

"This will obviously affect his career." Jason Kenndy said.

"Indeed it will, now turning over to the world's most talked about 'rising couple' Amanda Sykes and Real Madrid football legend Cristiano Ronaldo have been seen together all day yesterday inside 10 Speed Cafe in Calabasas, Jason, what do you think about this couple?" Maria said. My eyes widened and I turned the TV up a little.

"I think they're a very good pairing, I mean they both have the looks, they both have the 'I need to be the best' personalities, they also have very similar stories on how they rose to fame. I really believe this could be the next power couple."

I heard my phone go off in the other room as it was charging. I ran to go get it, and saw one missed call from Shenna. I rang her back as quickly as my fingers could, and quickly put my phone to my ear.

"Hello?" I heard her say on the other end of the phone.

"Hi, Shen, oh my God have you seen?!" I said, breathlessly.

"Yeah, I saw, but it's excellent. The more media coverage, the better it'll be for you!"

"Yeah okay. But I have a dinner with him tonight!"

"Best of luck, I need to get going, it's my day off. Enjoy yourself and be yourself."

And with that she hung up.

I went back into the living room with my phone in my hand. I slight buzz and I checked it, to see a message from Cris. I smiled a little, by default, and my heart started beating. It read:

Goodmorning! Hope you slept well! Looking forward to seeing you tonight, 7pm, mind texting me your address beautiful?

I replied with a good morning message as well, along with my address. He quickly replied with a smiley face and him saying that he'll be there.

"...Previous celebrities Amanda Sykes has been with however do include America's finest such as Chris Evans and Hollywood heart-throb Dylan O'Brien, we can certainly say she has an exquisite taste in men." Maria laughed. I shifted uncomfortably at my previous relationships.

I began my acting career at the age of 15, when I debuted on a Disney Channel show, only for a small amount of time, and only a small role as well. When I hit 17, I started seeing a 33 year old Chris Evans, which may seem gross but I really fell for him. I was with him until I turned 21, and the 4 year relationship I had with him really fucked me up, after he left me of course. I started doing drugs and cutting people off, and it wasn't pretty. That really pushed my career back, and gave people a bad view on the kind of person I was. I couldn't handle a break up, so I became a messed up child, as Daily Mail had said. Me and O'Brien however was only a 6 month thing, and he was cute, but we didn't click. There just wasn't anything there sadly.
