The Downey Brothers

The Photoshoot

Its been a couple weeks since the brothers and Anna had dinner together. Anna and Nathan hadnt gone on a date yet, but they text frequently. Its the day Robert and Anna go to Texas for five days. They are both sitting in the plane, waiting for it to take off. "Are you excited?" Robert asks.

"Yeah, ive never been to Texas before so this should be interesting." Anna says.

"Even though this is a business trip, we can still see the attractions on our free time if youd like." Robert says.

"Yeah... Id like that."

"How are you and my brother doing?" Robert then asks. Anna gets a little taken aback by his question but shakes it off.

"Um.. We are good. We text at least once everyday and we will be going on our first date after we get back..." Roberts brows furrow.

"You havent had your first date yet!? Its been what? Three weeks since you guys discovered that you liked each other?"

"Hes new to the dating thing, im not thinking much of it. Plus we are both busy people..." Robert nods understandingly.

They land in Texas and start unpacking some things. They share the hotel space but there are two bedrooms. "We still have a couple hours to see Texas a little before our meet and greet. Im gonna go shave quick, put on something that isnt a suit, and we will go. Is that okay?" Robert asks.

"Yeah, thats fine. But why are you gonna shave? I kinda like your new look..." Anna says, referring to Roberts goatee. Robert rubs his chin where the hair is.

"Really? You like the goatee?" He asks and Anna nods with a smile. Robert shows her his dazzling smile as his heart skips a beat from her compliment. "Then i guess ill just go change then..." After a couple minutes, Robert comes out wearing a denim button down shirt, with jeans, a leather belt with a big belt buckle, and a bolo tie. Anna does a double take, examining his new and sexy look. She cant help but drool a little. "Is it too much?" He asks, seeing her stare at him. Anna snaps out of her daze. He is your boss dammit! Stop thinking about how sexy he is right now! She thinks to herself.

"Uh.. N-no it looks great..." She says nervously, hoping he doesnt catch on to how nervous she suddenly is around him.

"Well then... Lets go! We are burning daylight!" Robert says, running out the door with Anna nervously chuckling behind him. As they are walking around, Robert suddenly stops. "Shit! I totally forgot i have a photoshoot to go to... Can we take a rain check on seeing Texas? I really need to go to this photoshoot..."

"Of course... We have plenty of time to see Texas within the next four days." Anna dismisses. Robert smiles, loving how understanding she is.

"Okay, do you want me to bring you back to the hotel?" He asks.

"Actually... If you dont mind, ive never been to a photoshoot so if its not much trouble, could i possibly come with you?" Anna asks nervously. Robert smiles, his heart swelling at the fact she wants to go with him.

"Of course you can! Come on, lets go!" He says excitedly. Anna laughs at his childish behavior. They enter the building the photoshoot is at. A very stylish looking man greets Robert.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Downey. Im Jerome, the photographer for GQ magazine. Since you are in Texas, the theme is western and i dont think youll need to change for the first round of photos. What you are wearing is perfect for now."

"Nice to meet you Jerome. And im glad i wore this then. Also this is my assistant, Anna. I asked her to accompany me if thats no trouble."

"Not at all! Actually... She might be useful. If you dont mind, id like her to do some things for me?" Robert looks at Anna, waiting for her response. Anna blushes slightly before responding.
