Twenty- Eight

It had been two weeks since New Years. I had been on several dates with Ashton since then. Every date I compared Ashton to Harry. Every date I grew closer to Ashton. Every date I longed for Harry. Every date I tried to forget his name.

I hadn't seen much of Harry in the papers or on social media. I never ran into him, I saw Gemma every now and then. Today I was to help Mrs. Castle interview new models for our next line coming out. I got to work earlier so I was prepared. Shortly after my arrival Mrs. Castle came in.

"Here is a list of things we are looking for. Here is a stack of portfolios, your top and at the end of the day we will decide." I nodded taking the portfolios out of her hand. I flip through the first one and see the name Styles. This was great, this would be the one interview I would hate. Pretty soon the first model was here. "Hello, I am Jasmine." She introduced herself. She has plenty of experience to be a model.

She starts telling me things about her and her past work experiences. "Will you be available to model here in the upcoming month?" I ask her. "Yes, I've always wanted to model for you guys!"

"We will contact you," I tell her with a smile. Next was a girl named Bridget. She had many good reviews from previous jobs but had seemed rude from the beginning. "I'm assuming you will be calling me for the job?" She asks. "Maybe, I think we are done here." She rolls her eyes and leaves. After hours upon hours of interviews, it was time for Madison. The moment she walked in she glared at me. 

"Well if it isn't the husband stealer," she says with a smirk. "Madison-" "It's Mrs. Styles," she interrupts. "Mrs. Styles," I said sarcastically. "I am going to be professional, but if you can't then I can go ahead and decline you for this job." Madison rolls her eyes, "You don't have that power." She crosses her arms. "Okay then," I click my button to call in my assistant. 

She comes running in quickly, "Please tell Mrs. Castle that I am declining Mrs. Styles this job." I couldn't help my smile. Madisons smile quickly disappeared.

Soon Ashton is picking me up from work. Ashton goes on about his day and I try to listen, but I kept getting distracted. "Are you okay?" Ashton breaks my thoughts. "I am fine," I tell him giving a reassuring smile. "You seem off today," I force a smile. "Honestly I am fine. Where do you want to stop for dinner?" Ashton then picks a place and I agree even though I didn't really want it. 

We both walk into the the Sushi place hand in hand. "I'll be back," Ashton says. I nod and he walks away. "Mary?" I turn and I am face to face with Harry. "Harry?" I felt time stand still. I feel someone touch me and it snaps me out of the trance. "They don't have what I want," Ashton says. Harry's face goes sour. "I'm sorry, babe!" I give him a kiss, making sure to drag it out. 

Harry awkwardly coughs, "Oh, I am so sorry! I didn't see you there, I am Ashton." "Are you guys-" "Together? Yes we are," I say interrupting Harry. "Babe we must get going, I have a surprise for you." I turn around and drag Ashton with me. 

"Who was that?" I glance at Harry quickly to see anger in his eyes, even a hint of jealousy? "No one," I tell Ashton.
