She Don't Like The Lights

Take 8

I got out of the shower, drops of water from my hair dripped onto the floor, making a little puddle of water next to the shower.

I stood in front of the mirror looking at myself, I didn't really know who I was. I was told by the outside world how I have to live, how I have to breathe and what I have to say. I was this perfect little person and I lost myself in the process.

I just needed to find myself and I had to do it quickly. I didn't want to be this perfect little actress Lucky, no I wanted to be a normal, clumsy, imperfect, awkward girl, Sutton Monroe, who didn't have a care in the world and didn't live by rules.

"Sutton you can do this, you're one of the greatest people that I have ever known. You were made to stand out and not fit into this boring world. Take in a deep breath and tell yourself that you are amazing and that you can be anything that you want. You are a dreamer and whatever you, think of, you can accomplish it. Look at what you achieved, you ran away from home and it has been already three days and no one has found you. Set your mind to it and just do it." I pointed at myself in the mirror. "You are a winner and you won't back down." This was one powerful speech I gave myself.

I just needed the motivation right now, I usually had people that did that for me, they were my so-called friends my mom paid them to do that. They called themselves my friends, but I just called them employees because your friends shouldn't get paid to be there they should do it just for free and be there whenever you needed them.

Pablo was the only one that had my back no matter what, at this moment I just needed him, he knew me like a book from the front to the back. He always helped me through troubled times and when things were easy we always had fun. He was the person I could laugh with, cry with and tell all my secrets too.

I towel dried my hair, got dressed and I knew it was time for me to face the people outside my room. I walked out of the room and held my head low because I didn't want people to recognize me. Some people were very friendly, they greeted me and even smiled, I greeted some of them back and just walked faster to the elevator.

I walked into the lobby grabbing one of the papers that were laid out onto the coffee table. I opened it up and placed it in front of my face, making sure that I could see over it. I watched the people that were walking past me.

There was an older gentleman that walked past me, I placed the paper down and started mocking him walking behind him doing everything that he did. He bent over and picked up his suitcase and I did the same. He turned around and I turned around even quicker, not wanting him to see what I was doing.

The girl at the reception area was laughing at me holding on to her stomach. I bent my head down and got a little grin on my face.

"You should become an actress you would be great at that." If only she knew who I was.

"Yeah, that would be great wouldn't it?" I took in a deep breath, I just hope she doesn't recognize me at all.

"I am Rachel by the way." She kept on smiling and she made me happy as well.

"I am Sutton, it's nice to meet you. You have a beautiful name by the way." Is she my first friend?

"Well, thank you. I don't see a lot of friendly faces here. Some of them are so busy they don't even greet me, luckily I am so used to it, and it doesn't even bother me anymore."

"You know what, I will make it one of my missions to greet you, whenever I come down here."

"Then that will be a deal." We shook hands on it and we both just laughed.

This feels great she doesn't know who I am and she treats me like a normal person. This might be one of the greatest days of my life so far.

* So from time to time I will be updating the cast list bring in new characters. So Rachel Bilson is one of the new characters in the story. If you don't know her please do yourself a favor and watch Hart of Dixie, it's one of the few series where they don't swear. I love this series so much.

Remember, if you liked it, please vote and comment.
