Emotions In Hiding (Ian Nelson)

Chapter 1

•Liana•

I woke up at around 5:43, due to the fact that my phone was vibrating quite loudly on my bed side table.

I picked it up and saw that it was my manager calling me.

"Hello?" I asked, groggily.

"Good, you're awake! I have exciting news!" She said happily into the phone.

"What is it?" I asked, rubbing my eyes.

"I got you an audition.."

"For what?" I asked excitedly, hoping it was something bigger than a commercial or walk on role.

"It's for a popular TV show.." She droned.

"Tell me! Please."

"Teen Wolf."

"Wait, are you serious."

I had heard of Teen Wolf before, but never got into it.

"Yeah, I'm serious. The audition is at 8:15 today, so you have to be ready by 7:15. I'll send the address to your phone, and leave by 7:20. It takes about 30 minutes to get there, but I want you to have time in case you get lost."

"Thank you so much!"

"No problem. See you then." She chirped before hanging up the phone.

I got up from my bed and headed towards my bathroom to take a shower. After I got out of the shower, I pulled out a pair of denim jeans, a black flowy tank top, a grey cardigan and started to do my hair. I dried it and braided it. After that, I did some natural looking makeup. When I finished my makeup I pulled on my shoes, a pair of peep toe booties.

Afterwards I grabbed my phone and keys and put them into a small bag, and headed downstairs.

As I descended the stairs I saw my dad drinking a cup of coffee at our kitchen counter.

"Hi dad!" I said, pulling out my travel mug and making some tea for myself.

"Hi sweetheart, why are you up so early?"

"I have an audition I have to go to." I told him, sipping my tea.

"For what?"

"A show called Teen Wolf." I told him excitedly.

"Isn't that a show you watch?" He asked.

"No. But I've heard it's good." I told him, checking the time.

7:19

"Sorry dad, but I have to go." I told him, kissing him on the cheek.

"Good luck sweetie." He said as I headed out the door.

"Thanks dad!"

I got to the building where I was having my audition at 8:06, and quickly headed inside.

I saw a receptionist counter and headed there.

"Hello!" The receptionist said cheerily.

"Hello! I was wondering where my audition is." I told her.

"Audition for what?" She asked.

"Teen Wolf. I have a meeting with the casting director."

"Ok, your audition is in room 306, on the third floor. Good luck!"

"Thank you!" I told her, before heading to the elevators.

I saw an elevator closing, and tried to make my way over. The person inside was trying to stall the elevator but the doors closed as soon as I got there.

I sighed as I pressed the button for another elevator.

As one opened, I stepped inside and headed to the third floor. Once I got onto the third floor I headed down the hallway until I found room 306. It was a glass door and I saw a woman sitting inside at a table. She was looking down at a stack of papers.

I knocked on the door and her head shot up. She smiled and motioned for me to come inside. I opened the door and stepped inside.

"Hello!" You must be Liana. I'm Wendy." The woman said, smiling at me.

"Hi. Yes, I'm Liana." I replied, sitting in the chair opposite Wendy's.

"So, Liana, tell me, how old are you?"

"I'm 18." I told her.

"Wonderful, and is your hair naturally that blonde?"

"Yes. Ever since I was little my hair has been this blonde." I replied.

"It's beautiful." She told me.

"Thank you." I said, a blush creeping to my cheeks.

"Ok Liana, I have a monologue for you, and I just want you to read it into the camera." She told me, handing me a small sheet of paper.

I read the monologue, and when I finished, I handed her the sheet of paper.

"Ok, that was great. I think that's all I will be needing. Thank you. I will contact your manager." She told me, still smiling.

"Thank you." I told her, standing from my chair and heading out the door.

As I walked out the door I saw someone waiting outside the door looking at his phone. When the door opened, his head shot up, and he smiled at me. I smiled back, before heading down the hall towards the elevator.

I was waiting outside of Wendy's meeting room to talk to her, when the door opened. I looked up to see the most beautiful girl I had ever seen. She smiled at me before heading down the hallway.

I walked into Wendy's room and sat to talk with her.

"Hey Ian, what's up?" She asked me as I sat down.

"Who was that?" I asked her.

"Her name is Liana." She told me.

Liana. Pretty name.

"And what was she doing?" I asked.

"Auditioning."

"For what?"

"A love interest for one of the characters."

"Which one?" I asked fervently.

"Why, does wittle Ian have a crush?" She asked mockingly.

"Maybe.." I sighed, blushing.

"Well, she was incredible. I think she's the one for the role."

"Please tell me which character." I pleaded.

"Young Derek." She said with a smirk.

"Yes!" I yelled happily.

"Calm down. I'll call her manager now and tell her to tell Liana to prepare for a chemistry read." Wendy told me.

"Thank you Wendy!"

"You're welcome."
