My Love

Chapter 3

I woke up to the feeling of dog kisses all over me, I smiled at the loving surprise all over my face. I sat up and stretched my arms wide up open, I pat my head to find that I forgot my hair bonnet. Shoot. Sometimes I wish I had white girl hair naturally because goddamn it having natural African hair is a struggle. I stood up, walked to the kitchen, filled up my dogs food bowls and just left the room to check for any potty accidents. Cough, cough Zeus. I was happy to find none at the moment and went to my room to change into some pants and put on my black Clark Kent styled glasses. Once I found everybody in the kitchen has be fed and watered I grabbed the leashes and harnesses to hook them up for a day at the dog park.
I always let them have one day to just tire themselves out at the dog park. We walked by delicious food stands and expensive designer stores, the pack was well trained on leash so when people came up to them they freak out although Since Zeus is a baby he got a little excited but he was still, for the most part, under control. We walked to a dog park then I let them loose to burn some energy. I say at the bench with other owners when I spotted my friend Christine on her phone playing Fruit Ninja trying to beat her high score. I walked over to her "Hey Chris." She looked up at me and smiled "Hi Vic, what's up?" I sat next to her "Ya know the usually working at a job that that hate and wondering what I'm doing with my life. What about you?" She giggled "The absolute same. Being an adult is so difficult." "I know, I've been one longer than you." Christine had blond hair with pink lowlights, big blue doe like eyes and was a standing five foot nine, she was one of those people who you were glad they were a lesbian, which she is, so they steal attention from guys away from you, when I first met Christine she was a college freshmen and I was a junior at University of Los Angeles, now she just got out of college. We don't always get to see each other since she's working on getting her nightclub up and running, but we get to see each other at the dog park, she has a little dachshund named Sweetie and she's in love with Yoshi. I think they have a secret relationship, hmmmm?
      Christine and I talked a little longer before we left about five o'clockish. My pack and I walked home, the pack dispersed in the apartment I went to the computer to work on my bills which took about an hour or two, once I was finished I cooked some Cajun chicken with green peppers and sautéed mushrooms and kale, I found out why people actually like that stuff now I like it. While the chicken was cooking I fed the pack and took them out before their bedtime. I enjoyed my food and did a decent job, after I ate I put the rest up and hit the sack. Being the dog park all day is exhausting, especially my dogs running around and wanting to play with me. Let's just say I never want children if that's what they're going to be like.

    It was finally the day! I made sure to seem relaxed and approachable in my  outfit choice with my gray STOP! Hammertime Thor short sleeve crop top with my dark green tight mid thigh length mini skirt topped with my black combat boots with my white knee length Lolita socks. I put on my black rimmed Clark Kent glasses and my gold Loki ring, I braided my hair into two French braids I put on black winged eyeliner and a gold speckled lip gloss. Once I was finished getting ready I grabbed my bag and was about to leave when Zeus and Yoshi started whimpering and crying "I have to go, I'll see you guys later okay." I bent down to hug them before they started attacking my face with giant kisses. I got back up and headed out the door, once I outside I head to a food stand that sells fresh coffee "Hello." "Good morning what may I get you?" The cashier replied with a fake smile and the look of death in his eyes. " I would a cookies and cream frappé extra whip." I only have forty five minutes until the meeting "Coming right up." As I was waiting for my coffee I heard him mutter I hate my life then turned around to me with fake plastered smile as he handed me the drink "That will be 4.85." I handed him five dollars grabbed my drink "Keep the change." "Wow, a whole fifteen cents. Someone's generous today." He scoffs. I shake off his remark and called a cab and was off to the studio. Once I got there I paid the driver and went and checked in with the front desk and went to the reading room. There was ten minutes until the reading. I saw the scripts and started placing one at each seat, I made sure there was ice water and cups, I also made sure I had my notepad and pencil just in case I had to take notes. There was still five minutes left so I pulled out my phone and scrolled through my dog pictures 'Awwwwing' at them. 'I spend way too time with my dogs. I need to get a life.' I thought giggling to myself when I heard a knock on the door, I put my phone up quickly and pulled out my notepad and pencil "Come in." I looked up to see Tom Hiddleston right in front of me, I held in my squealing as much as I could. "Oh it's you." He said, I was confused at his reply "I'm sorry have we met before." "I gave you a ride to your interview remember."  I thought back to that day, I was basically buzzed by that evening but I slightly remembered that morning. I got a ride from a tall stranger named Tom.......I'm an idiot. That was Tom, as an The Tom, as an the sexiest man alive in my generation. In my totally biased opinion. "That was you," I had to face palm myself for that "I mean I didn't have my glasses or contacts so everything was a big blur."
He chuckled "Yeah, I noticed you almost ran into the door a couple times." A embarrassed blush filled my face and when I blush I don't turn pink or red I turn magenta. The most awkward color there is, thank you genetics for this monstrosity that will be appearing on my face for the rest of my life. "Well what are you doing here?" He said in a sultry voice threatening my knees to buckle, "I'm working." There was a look of shock on his face "Wow." "Wow, what?" "I didn't expect someone like you to be..." "To be what?" "Working in a place like this, I thought you'd be the type of person to be on screen or on a magazine cover or behind a computer writing a story, I never thought you'd be working a behind the scenes girl." I blushed, again, profusely "Well I am. For now at least." "For now, what do you want to do really?" He looked at me with genuine interest, like he really cared, "I hope to be a director and producer. That's the only reason I agreed to be a production assistant in the first place." "Sounds like you have a plan for yourself. How's your plan so far? " "It's getting there but maybe if I do an amazing job on this project I will be able to get promoted. At least that's what I'm hoping." "I'll be rooting for you." He chuckled and so did I. "So what is your name, I didn't catch it last time." "Oh, um its Victoria." I replied, he smiled widely showing showing a megawatt smile "Victoria," he said with his milky British accent "What an elegant name for a beautiful woman." I swore he winked when he said that, and, for what seems to be the millionth time today, I blushed. What was it about meeting the most handsome man in person and him saying sexily talking to me that just makes me...........ugh I don't even know anymore.
      Anyway, the reading started shortly which was amazing. I got to meet Chris Hemsworth, Natalie Portman, Idris Elba, Kat Dennings, everybody which was really exciting, not that I haven't met celebrities before but it's different because I loved the Thor franchise to a godly (pardon my pun) extent. During the meeting I took at least four pages of notes but at times I could hardly focus because Tom would look at me, smile and wink at me making me melt like chocolate in the hot L.A sun. I started packing up when he came up to me from behind, he tapped my shoulder I jumped slightly at his touch, which sent chills down my spine I turned to meet his beautiful blue eyes with my purple ones. "Are those real." He asked me, I was confused and then I assumed he was talking eyes "As natural as eyes get." "Fascinating." He said breathlessly gazing into my eyes with curiosity. I looked away awkwardly "Sorry, I just never seen eyes like yours. I made you uncomfortable didn't I?" He said looking down awkwardly just like me "Not at all, I'm used to people staring into my eyes trying to depict whether they were contacts or not." "Still it was very rude, my apologies." If I were seeing correctly I would think he had a tint of pink in his cheeks. "It's fine, I promise." I checked my watch "Oh, I have to go I have to make sure all the schedules are printed for each cast member and make sure the set has the right pieces for filming." I threw my backpack over my shoulder and started walking out, I turned around to see his face again "It was nice to see you again, hopefully I'll see you again on set or at the next meeting or something like that." I gave him a big smile "Maybe we could for coffee." He said taking a scrap piece of paper and a pen out and writing something down "Maybe we'll see each other sooner than you think." He said then handed me the piece of paper and there it was his phone number. My life is officially complete. "Um, okay." I didn't know what to say, I didn't know how to respond. As if my body was on autopilot I ripped a piece of paper from my notepad, wrote my number and handed it to him "Maybe." And then I left with a big smile on my face as I walked to the bus, I remembered to put the phone number in my bra because I was too happy to have to open my monstrosity of a messy book bag to put it up. After work I went home, I opened my apartment door in a daze and I was greeted by my dogs "I have the phone number of Tom Hiddleston." I let out a giant squeal I had been holding in all day, jumping up and down with my dogs following by running in circles, jumping, and barking. I was in the middle of my happy dance I heard the door ring, I rushed to the door not caring if I was a sweaty mess "Hello." I said as I opened the door, I live next to Susanne, an older lady that had large streaks of gray and white in her greasy light brown hair, dark circles by her eyes, and wearing a wrinkly business suit "Could you keep it down I'm trying to sleep and I don't want to be woken up by pesky annoying mutts and a disgusting teenager." She sneered at me and to be honest it didn't bother me one bit, I shot her a big smile and said "it won't happen again, Madame." She narrowed her tired green eyes and shot daggers before turning and returning to her apartment. I returned inside my apartment and looked at my dogs, who were looking at me expectantly "Don't worry it was just The Wicked Bitch Of The West from next door. Just be quiet or else she'll plant a curse on you." Zeus whimpered, I walked over to him to comfort him "It's okay she won't get you, my sweet baby." Sandy barked trying to get my attention "Its okay, your my baby too." I turned to all my dogs "You're all my babies." I was then attacked with kisses. "Okay, okay I have to change and I'm tired. Get off you oafs." And I got up and changed into my Tar Heels shorts and my deadpool shirt. I got the bag of pretzels that were sitting in my my pantry and the 2 liter bottle of cranberry cherry juice sat down on my couch with my dogs laying on the floor and said "Who wants to have a Thor movie marathon." And that was my night and the perfect description of my life.
