I was feeling so nervous. I was sat outside Kayleigh Matthews office, Kayleigh being my boss. I worked for a fashion magazine called 'Xpose'. I do a column for the magazine, but at the moment I am only an apprentice. But I do enjoy working here. I have always had a passion for fashion and always knew that I wanted to have a career in it. I woke up with a text from one of my best friends, Cyion, who happens to be Kayleigh's personal assistant. She gets to hear all the goss that is happening in the head office and doesn't hesitate to tell me. I opened up the text and it said,

From Cyion,

Kayleigh wants to see you in her office at about 11:30am. I wonder what you've done now ;)xx'

To Cyion,

Oh god!  I hope its not bad news:(xx'

 After replying to the text, I got myself out of bed and got ready for work, making sure I looked smart enough for my meeting with Kayleigh. I ended up putting on my, nude soft texture skater skirt. It sat perfectly on my small, petite body. As I am not the tallest of people, I feel comfortable wearing heels, just to add some height to me. So, I put on my Bianco Bine heels. My long brown hair was lightly curled. I didn't put too much make up on, I like to look natural so usually keep to my usual eye liner and mascara..unless I'm going out then I will put more on. Once I was ready, I shouted goodbye to my sister, Simone. I was staying at her and her boyfriends for the night, I had just moved most of my stuff to my new flat who I share with my two bestest friends, Ruth and Jenny. I still had a few things left at Simones. I used to live here as our Mum had left us to go and live with her new husband in Australia. 

I got out of the flat and into my Fiat 500 car. I put the radio on to settle my nerves, Juliet by Lawson came on. I left this song on and drove to work. Parking my car once I had arrived. I locked my car  and made my way over to the entrance of the building. I got to my desk and placed my bag down, checking the time on my phone as I sat down on the office chair. It was 9:30am, I had another two hours to wair for this meeting. I sighed and switched on my computer. I had to check my emails in case there were some updates for me to complete. I usually get emails saying what work I had to do for the day. Once my email was up, I found an email saying that I had to write about who wore a dress better, it was between Paris Hilton or Lindsay Lohan. I always loved doing articles like this, I got to voice my opinions about what I like and don't like. I began to write up my article and it wasn't long before it was time for meeting with Kayleigh. I slowly made my way to her floor where I was greeted by Cyion.

'Morning m'lovely,' she beamed.

'What mood is she in today?' I asked as I was referring to Kayleigh.

I'm not too sure..one minute she's fine and then the next you wouldn't wanna piss her off,' she shrugged.

'Wish me luck,' I smiled.

'Good luck Emma,' she grinned. I went to sit outside Kayleigh's office. It was like I was waiting outside the head teachers office, very nerve wracking. I looked at my watch and it was dead on 11:30am. I then heard the door opening.

'Miss Samson,' she called. I got up from my seat and followed Kayleigh into her office. Kayleigh was a very beautiful woman, the type that all men would dream to have on his arm. She had long blonde hair that almost stopped at her waist, not a strand out of place. A slim, petite figure. She was tall but even taller when she wore heels. Her make up was neatly applied.

'Sit down Emma,' She commanded as she sat down on her chair. I done as I was told.

'So you've been with us for almost 2 years now. am I right?' she asked as she looked at a piece of paper.

'Yes that is correct,' I answered. 

'And I hear that you do a great job,' she continued to say.

'Well, I do try my best,'

'Everyone has a good word to say about you,' she smiled.

'Thank you,'.

'So, I thought that you would be perfect for our new television programme that is starting soon. It's going to be called 'Xposed:Live'..it'll be like your column but people will be able to ask you questions and ask for you opinons on their fashion dilemmas,' she smiled as she looked up at me.

'Really?' I replied in a shocked tone. When I was sat outside, I never thought this would be what she had to say to me.

'Yes..you start next week,' she answered.

'Thank you Miss Matthews,' I grinned.

'Call me Kayleigh,' she smiled once again. We chatted some about my promotion. I couldn't believe that people were gonna see me on TV, I never imagined myself being on TV. It was a great honour to be asked. I was so excited and felt relieved as I thought that I was going to get fired.

I left her office with a massive smile on my face. I went back to my desk and got my phone out of my bag and text Ruth and Jenny,

To Ruth, Jenny:

Get your party frocks and dancing shoes on as I am taking you girlies out for a drink tonight. We have some celebrating to do. Will tell more when I see you tonight:Dxxx

I sat and waited for them to reply and eventually they did, Ruth replied first saying,

From Ruth:

Sounds like a good plan to me:)xx

Next was Jenny,

From Jenny:

Perfect, you know that I LOVE a night out:Dxxx

I put my phone away and got on with my article..I couldn't wait to go out tonight!
