Crystal-Violet
  I decided to tell Dustin about my new job. So, after I calmed down after screaming internally (because I didn't want to wake up the neighbors and have them think someone is being murdered and I have cops show up at my house), I walked calmly out the door with my acceptance letter in hand and walked over to Dustin's house. I knocked on the door and waited. I hope he hasn't gone out yet to wherever he said he was going.

I then heard shuffling behind the door and the lock turning. The door opens and he stands there in black jeans that's hanging low on his waist, with the belt buckle still needing to be done, no shirt on (though I'm not complaining) and his hair still damp. He leaned against the door frame, arms crossed and one eyebrow raised. He must've realized I was staring when he said "Hon, are you just gonna stand there and stare or do you need something?" A smirk playing at his lips. I shook my head, snapping out of my trance and said "Oh, sorry. Haha. Guess what?"
He nodded his head, signaling for me to continue. "Well....I'M GONNA BE WORKING AT STMPD RCRDS!!"
"You got the job?!"
"YEAH BABY!" I said excitedly, squealing, jumping, and clapping my hands (I sound like I'm two, okay I need to stop...oh fuck it, IM SO HAPPY).
"Oh my god! Congratulations!" He said, hugging me a lifting me off the ground. I laughed my ugly ass laugh as he out me down but still hugged me, swaying us side to side. He pulled away with a huge smile on his face.
"I'm so happy for you!" He said.
"Thanks! I really didn't think I was gonna get the job."
"Anything could happen right? When do you start?"
"I start on Monday, but the day before I have to go to the office so rules and other 'important information' can be given to me. I wonder what that can be."

"I don't know. But you know who owns Stmpd Rcrds right?"
I furrowed my eyebrows and shook my head. I probably look so stupid right now.
"Martin Garrix!" He said.
"Oh my gosh really?!" I knew about him and a few songs from him, but I just wasn't a die hard fan. I like him though. "Yeah, so you're gonna be working for him!" Dustin says now. Wow this is such an honor, honestly. Even though I'm not a big fan of him, I'm gonna be working for the youngest DJ in the world. Mind-blowing.

  I woke up at 9:30 a.m that Sunday morning. Today's the day I'll probably get to see Martin...yay! I check my phone. I'm forever alone, so nothing really important was to be checked or no one to text. After I told Dustin about the job acceptance, I called both my parents, that live in Georgia now that I've moved out, and told them the news. They said that they were proud of me and the usual things you're supposed to tell someone when they've gotten their first job.

  I did my usual morning routine. Then I applied some make up. I did some winged eyeliner with some mascara and applied a liquid matte lipstick by Kylie Jenner from her new lip kit. I decided on the Koko K shade that was close to my natural lip color. I went to pick an outfit. I don't know what I should wear. Let's see, I'm going to pretty much almost a job interview, I guess I can say. So I decided on a black peplump top with some black skinny pants. I put on a silver necklace of a shooting star and some pearl studded earrings. I put my hair in the half up , half down hairstyle and put on some black pumps. I love black clothes; the color just goes with everything.

I grabbed my phone, keys, purse, and the job acceptance letter. It's 10 a.m now and I didn't have to be at the office until 11 a.m so I had time for some breakfast. I decided I'll stop by Dunkin Donuts on the way. I went out to my car and got inside. Just as the shut the door, my phone goes off. It's a text from Dustin:
Hey boo. Just wishing you good luck. 💘

  I smiled and typed a quick reply. I started my car. I plugged in my aux cord and played Into You by Ariana Grande, because she's fucking queen. The song starts.
"I'm so into you, I can barely breathe." I sing,
"And all I wanna do is to fall in deep...
Oh baby look what you've started.
The temperature's rising in here. Is this gonna happen? Been waiting and waiting for you to make a move. Before I make a move. So baby come light me up, and baby I'll let you on it. A little bit dangerous, but baby that's how I want it...
'Cause I'm so into you, into you, into you."
The bridge of the song comes on and it's my favorite part of the song:
"Tell me what you came here for? 'Cause I can't, I can't wait no more. I'm on the edge of no control. And I need, I need you to know, you to know."

  By the time the bridge ends I'm pretty much screaming out the lyrics now.

  I enter the building, and the smell that wafts out of the door only makes me more nervous. It's not a bad small at all, but it smells like all sophisticated, if that makes any sense.

I followed the directions on the letter, and went up to the woman at the front desk that had the company logo on the front. I walk up to her. She looks up at me. She's really pretty, compared to me. "Welcome to Stmpd Rcrds, how may I help you?" She says, smiling with teeth.
"Hi, I'm Crystal-Violet Rogers," her smiles defaults; she's still smiling but her teeth are no longer showing. "I'm here because I have been accepted as a secretary here. The letter said for me to come to the front desk."
"Ah yes, Martin has told be about this. I'll send you right up. The elevator is in that left hallway, on the right. Martin's studio is on the third floor, third door on the right."
"Thanks so much."
"No problem." She says, smiling with teeth again.

  God I'm so nervous that I'm shaking, and I'm shaking so much the elevator will probably fly out of the building and crash to the floor, killing me. Okay, why'd I just think of that? What the fuck is wrong with me? Okay Crystal, it's okay. Happy thoughts, breathe.

I manage to calm myself by the time the elevator dings when it's reached its destination. "It's okay, you've got this. You're gonna be fine. I mean, it's only Martin Garrix, the youngest DJ in the world, no pressure right?" Oh man, I'm screwed. I reach the third door on the right. Should I knock or just come right in. I mean, the lady at the front desk already should've called him and let him know I'm coming up. I mentally face-palmed myself. "Silly you, where is your manners? You have to knock!" And so I did.

Martin
  Well today's the day I meet Crystal-Violet. I'm so happy to finally have a secretary.

  I was working on the same melody I was working on Friday when I heard a knock at my door. Thats probably Crystal-Violet, Caroline called me to let me know she was coming up. Well, here goes nothing. I walked over to the door and opened it. There stood the girl I saw in the picture. "Hi," she said. "I'm Crystal-Violet."
"Hi, yes, its finally nice to meet you." I said, giving her a one-armed hug. She was taken aback at first but hugged me back. She smelled really good, like strawberry kiwi.
"Please come in" I said, gesturing for her to enter my studio. She did as she was told, taking a seat on the couch on the right side of the room. I took the spinny chair and rolled it out in front of her and sat down.
"So, Crystal-Violet, tell me about yourself."
