^^laurens outfit

"hey, lauren?" i turned away from the mirror where i was putting in my earrings. ashton stood in the doorway, wearing an actual shirt for once, and black skinny jeans. "you ready?"

"i think," i smiled at him nervously. grabbing my bag from the bed and walking over to him.

"they'll love you!" ashton promised, "i mean, how can they not?" i bit my lip.

"a lot of reasons," i answered worriedly, staring at my reflection one more time. ashton smiled at me softly.

"lauren, you look perfect," he reassured and I felt my cheeks flush.

"thank you," i murmured as ashton held the bedroom door open and i slipped out in front of him. "so, what's it like at this radio place?" i asked, fiddling with my hands nervously.

"it's awesome! everyone's always really helpful and of course calum deejays there as well, so you'll know someone," ashton grinned, brushing his fingers on the curve of my hip as he walked past me into the hallway.  a small tingle ran down my spine and i bit my lip, slightly groaning. ashton would always do this. he would tease and tease with little touches like that.

now, some of you maybe thinking-wtf aren't you already fucking him every night? well, i've thought about that plenty. but i don't just jump into bed with every hot man i meet. or well, live with. besides, i was actually having quite some fun playing around with ashton.

"thanks for getting me this job, ashton," i smile at him as we lock the apartment door behind us, and head down the steps, since the elevator is getting repaired.  

"no problem, babygirl," he whispers.

"ash, good to see you bro!" a short potbellied man puts his hand up for a high five, behind the reception desk in the small building that was located on one of the city's fanciest streets.

"paul, this is lauren," ashton motioned towards me and i waved. paul raised his eyebrows at ashton.

"lauren huh, nice to finally meet you," paul grinned, "you can head right in, ash. i'll take her to calum." i looked to ashton, for confirmation. he nodded at paul, and as i moved to follow the short pudgy man he put his arm out in front of me and whispered in my ear.

"be a good girl for daddy," he moved his hand down to my butt and squeezed it before walking off. my jaw dropped as i watched him, feeling slightly, (well, okay a lot) turned on by what he had just said. 

"lauren! good to see you again," calum grinned at me, obviously checking me out as i stood in front of him holding a clipboard.

"hi, cal," i shifted on my feet awkwardly, "umm, so what am i doing today?" calum nodded, snapping back to focus.

"right, so you're going to be checking in all of the guests, and making sure they find the right booth," calum said leading me around the office desk and out into the hallway. "first floor is interviews and news-basically booths one through ten, second floor is booths ten through twenty and is entertainment and music. even numbers on the right and odd on the left. got it?" i nodded, trying to memorize the instructions quickly.

"great, here's a headset, see you later," calum walked back into his office.

wait, that was it? but how was i supposed to know when to bring someone in?

suddenly the headset began talking, and i jumped in fright, before quickly slipping it onto my head.

"lauren, luke hemmings is here, booth 17 1:00pm," paul's voice said over the headset quickly, "come to the front and bring him up,"
