Moving on - g.d

E l e v e n

I fell asleep while watching the film and it had only felt like minutes before I was gently being shaken awake. Apparently it was 4am and I had to be in hair and makeup in an hour.

Rubbing my eyes, I stumbled out of bed, performing my daily routine before pulling on a comfy outfit, I wouldn't be in my own clothes for most of the day anyway. As I was changing, I noticed Grayson's eyes staring at my body appreciatively and I could feel my cheeks burn as his actions.

"You look hot..." he mumbled, pulling me closer and kissing me softly. I wrapped my arms around his neck causing him to lift me, enabling him to deepen the kiss. With a smile my hands ran through the back of his hair, knowing that it drove him crazy when I did. Letting out a groan of approval, he gently pressed my back against the wall, allowing a small gasp to escape my mouth, as Grayson's tongue found mine.

"Well that's disgusting." Ethan commented, walking in, smiling softly as me before looking enviously at Grayson. Without saying another word, he went to the bathroom to change.
Letting out a groan, my boyfriend fell back on my bed, an adorable pout on his face.
"I could've taken you there and then if he hadn't of interrupted." He muttered, causing my cheeks to flush again as he voiced his thoughts.

In reply, I said nothing, just curling up to him and enjoying the peacefulness that fell upon us. Of course, this isn't a fairytale, and all good things must come to an end.
"We have to leave now babe or you'll be late." He murmured, kissing my head and pulling me up and towards the car.

"Ethan! We're leaving!" Gray shouted just as we exited and just as we adjusted our seat belts, Ethan slid into the back seat, not looking at Grayson. It wasn't that he wasn't invited, he was simply still being salty about earlier.

Gray started the car and I turned the music on, softly bobbing my head in time to the music. As I was enjoying the rhythm, a hand found its way beside me, a granola bar in its grasp. Ethan.
I turned to look at him, not taking the bar.
"Don't say no." He warned, his face so serious that I couldn't decline, therefore taking the small breakfast and beginning to eat.

Gray smiled at my actions and due to the tension being slightly less, the journey seemed quicker with no conflict or delays.
As soon as I stepped out the car, Jack embraced me, kissing each cheek and smiling warmly at me.
"You look great!" He beamed, shooing the twins away and he practically dragged me to hair and makeup.
"So the brand said they absolutely adore your look so therefore are only applying mascara for makeup and a gently waved hair. They're going to focus on skincare and making you look like the best possible, natural version of you." He explained as I nodded, half listening but knowing that it wasn't too important.

I relaxed and let the beauticians do what they were best at, all the while, I examined the clothes on the rack across the room. The line was adorable from what I could see, pastel spring colours, cotton shorts, cropped tops. It screamed girly and was the style that I'd always dreamed of pulling off.

"Hun, we've finished, a hair stylist said gently, coaxing me out of my daydream.
"Oh, thanks!" I smiled, getting up and feeling myself getting lured to the clothes. Before I reached the rack however, Jack thrust an outfit towards me and sent me to get ready.
"You have 10 minutes, your co-model should be ready by then too."
I nodded, I didn't mind other models they were so kind and I found myself working well with most. Apparently for this shoot, I'd be joined by a new model who found a breakthrough with this job. I hoped they'd be a kind type who was just excited to land their dream job.

Quickly shimmying into the outfit, I glanced at myself in the mirror and smiled, for the first time, I looked good in a style that I used to think I had no hope in pulling off.
After sliding on the high-tops that I'd been given, I walked out to set, feeling extremely confident in myself.
As I came into view of the twins, I heard Grayson let out a wolf-whistle. When I turned to Ethan, the smile slipped off my face. He didn't look at me at all, instead he looked right past me at 2 people talking on set.

Jack was there and I assumed he was talking to the new model, who had her back to me. Her hair was chocolate brown and her frame was tall and slim, a perfect model.
"Ah Cassidy, I'd like you to meet your co-model, Stacie." He smiles, the girl who turned made my stomach churn.

My high school bully.
