Chapter 1.

Jill

"I hopped off the plane at L.A.X.

With a dream and my cardigan

Welcome to the land of fame excess, am I gonna fit in? Jumped in the cab here I am for the first-"

I was singing in my car to Party In The U.S.A. just as my cell phone rang signaling I had a call coming in.

Bummed down about having to turn my beat down I answered, "Hello?"

"Jill!" a happy voice said, it was my makeup artist Chanella. "Do you think you could meet me for coffee, love?"

I checked the time on my phone, it was a quarter after 3pm. I still had time for coffee and to go run a few quick errands.

"Sure! Which coffee shop?"

"The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. I have some things to go over with you." Chanella replied.

"I'll be over second, see you there." I said as I ended the call.

I pulled into the coffee shop and got out of my car, I spotted Chanella sitting at a small table for two with some papers in front of her. I smiled gracefully and sat down at the empty seat that accompanied her.

"Jill, darling! You look striking as usual," Chanella complimented "I found a new makeup product, Yves Saint Laurent. The company is willing to pay 1500$ if you model it for them on commercial next week."

I raised a brow, "1500? That's a lot! But I don't know, I've never been on commercial before..."

Chanella took a sip of her tea drink before speaking again.

"Exactly! So why not now? You've got a beautiful face Jill, show it off!" She smiled at me.

"Alright, I'll do it." I replied, Chanella clapped her hands with glee.

"Perfect!!" She sung, "I'll call the company right now and tell them you've agreed. Go grab yourself a drink sweetie."

I smiled nodding my head and got up to go get an iced tea. The line wasn't very long thankfully so I got my drink without wait.

As I turned around I bumped into someone as a small bit of my iced tea splashed out onto the male in front of me.

"Oh! I'm sorry I didn't see you there, are you alright?" I apologized as I looked up to see bright blue eyes looking down at me.

They sparkled as the blonde boy smiled down at me, "It's perfectly okay, this shirt needed washing any way." he said. The boy had a thick Irish accent.

I smiled apologetically and nodded. The boy stuck out his hand to shake, "I'm Niall." he said in a friendly manner.

I shook his hand firmly, "My name is Jill." I replied.

"You look really familiar, I think I have seen you somewhere before..." Niall stated.

"Oh, I model, so that's probably where." I said with a small giggle. Niall nodded "Oh then that's it then!" he smiled.

Heels could be heard tapping against the floor as a dolled up Barbra Palvin made her way up to Niall. She glared at me and smashed her lips to his, it was quite a sight I must say.

I stood their awkwardly until Niall pulled apart from the kiss, he was clearly embarrassed and taken back.

"Jill." Barbra said.

"Barbra." I replied.

Niall must have sensed some tension between us because he kept looking between the two of us.

"You how know each other?" he asked. Barbara smiled a fake sappy grin.

"Oh yes, we model for the same company." Barbra answered.

"Well um, I better go. It was nice to meet you Niall, sorry again about your shirt." I relied before awkwardly walking away.
