STAY TUNED FOR AN ANNOUNCEMENT AT THE END :)

Luke's hands rested on my waist as Calum continued to cook, not even protesting when his helper ditched him simply to stare at me singing. My photographer, who travelled with us, was getting quite a few photos of us, since I was in pajamas I normally modelled. Luke rested his forehead against mine, our faces close enough that our noses were touching each other. His warm breath fanned out over my face, as mine did the same to him. 

"I have Project Runway today, tomorrow, and Monday.Oh, and a fashion show on Monday evening." I said, smirking as he pouted. 

"Guess who's got front row passes to the fashion show?" I teased, handing Luke two tickets to see the fashion show. 

"Me and Cal." Luke said, smiling at me. 

"Yup. See you then. Got to go inform the designers of their challenge." I said happily, skipping into the room and getting changed into one of my more signature outfits. I drove to the place where I was supposed to meet Tim, finding him waiting there, smiling.

"Hey, Tim!" I said, waving.

"Braelynn!" Tim said, hugging me. I had decided to keep the prize I was giving away a secret from everyone, only to be revealed when the designers were here. I watched as the 12 designers walked up, looks of surprise flashing across their faces as they saw me standing next to their mentor. 

"Designers, I doubt I need to introduce you to Braelynn Hemmings, world famous model and wife of Luke Hemmings." Tim said, smiling fondly at them. They all shook their heads. 

"Hey Designers!" I greeted, giving them a friendly smile. 

"Hi Mrs. Hemmings." They all said back. 

"Oh, call me Braelynn." I said, giggling. "I'm only 20 after all." 

"So, what's the challenge and prize?" Tim prompted. 

"Today's challenge is a fun one for all of us. I want you to create an outfit that is worthy of a real runway. In front of hundreds of people. BUT! Textiles are designed by you. And only you! I don't want to see any fabrics I've seen before. Don't forget to design the shoes. For the shoes and accessories you'll be designing, you'll have the help of a professional shoe and accessory designer. This is a TWO day challenge." I said, clasping my hands together. 

"And the prize?" Tim asked. 

"I have a fashion show on Monday..... I will be wearing the winner's outfit entirely. Also, the outfit will be sold with the upcoming collection I have modeled in the past few weeks that's out for sale in two weeks. I will be visiting with Tom and a special guest each day." I said, smiling at them as they gasped. 

"What if the outfit doesn't fit you?" One of them asked.

"Well then what's a tailor for?" I said, smiling. 

"Get sketching and designing!" Tim said, and all 12 designers immediately went to work, as my phone buzzed from an incoming call. I looked at the caller id, and it was Ember. I walked away a little, pressing my phone to my ear as I accepted the call. 

"Brae! Where are you?" Ember asked, sounding frantic.

"I'm with the Project Runway designers right now. They're sketching. Is something up?" I asked, my voice filled with concern. 

"Uh...Can I drive Cal over there?" She said, not explaining why.

"Yeah, of course." I said, not prodding into the reason. 

"Okay. Thank you." She said, before hanging up. I heard a slight mumble from Calum before though, and I frowned, since Calum was fine, or seemed fine this morning. Five minutes later, Ember hopped out of a car and walked over to the passenger seat door, opening it for Calum, who had his face buried in his hands.
