Job Opportunity

Scott moved into the studio, a smile on his face as the director and writer looked up. "Scott, we're glad you could come," the director, David Mackay said.

"I wouldn't miss it for the world," Scott replied honestly.

"We called you here because we think you would be a perfect fit for Priestly," the writer, Betsy Morris said, smiling widely.

"Really?" Scott asked, his jaw dropping.

The two nodded, smiling. "Yes, and we'd like to officially offer you the role," David said.

"I'd be glad and honored to take it," Scott said, stepping forward and holding out his hand. David and Betsy shook it.

"Well, welcome to the team," Betsy responded. "We do have your script for you today, but it'll be at least two weeks before we start filming."

A thought popped into Scott's head then, and he couldn't help but ask, "I'm just wondering, do you have anyone for the hair or makeup department yet?"

The two exchanged a look, before looking back to him. "Once the cast is filled, that's who we're hiring next,"
David told him. "Why?"

"My boyfriend, Mitchell Grassi, is the head of makeup and hair on the set of Supernatural," Scott told them. "I know us being in a relationship is a flag for most directors, but he's amazing, and I just know he would love to work on this movie. If you would give him the opportunity."

Betsy glanced at David, before smiling, looking back to the actor. "We are looking for members for both teams, so...have him read the script as well, and then have him sketch what makeup and hair he would do for your character, Priestly, for any three scenes of the movie."

David nodded slowly, smiling. "Have him email us the pictures, and we will gladly put him into consideration for both teams," he continued.

Scott's smile was starting to hurt his face."How soon do you want the pictures?"

"As soon as possible would be preferred," David said, folding his hands.

"You have them as soon as he is done," Scott said, nodding. "Thank you, so much for choosing me, and for taking Mitchell into consideration."

"You are more than welcome, Scott," Betsy said, smiling. "Welcome to the team."

Nodding, Scott moved out of the studio, punching the air as he left. "Yes!"

Reaching for his phone, he unlocked it, smiling as he saw a picture of him and Mitch from Hawaii as his wallpaper. Dialing his number 2 speed dial, he bounced on his feet, waiting for his boyfriend to answer.

The phone didn't even ring twice before he answered it, automatically asking, "So?!"

"I got it!" Scott cried, moving towards his car.

"Yes! Oh my gosh, Scott, that's great!" He cried, squealing.

"And I have even better news," he told him.

"How could anything be better?" Mitch responded.

"The director and writer want you to come up with three sketches for any three scenes for my character, Priestly, designing his hair and makeup," Scott told him. "If they like the sketches, they're gonna put you on either the hair or makeup team!"

"Scott! You did not do that just for me!"

"I did," he replied, smiling widely. "Because I love you, and I already know this is going to be a blast. And I want you to be a part of this with me."

"Oh, I love you too," Mitch replied softly. "I just...how did you do it?"

"I just mentioned that you are the head of the hair and makeup department on Supernatural, and it totally impressed them," he told him. "Listen, I know it's nerve-wracking because you don't know anybody like you know Avi. But you're so amazing, and they would be complete idiots not to hire you, okay?"
