Secret Model: 3
You could say that, Nathan and I hit it off pretty quickly despite my current physical appearance. We were chatting up and down hallways, talking about Coldplay, our favourite band. No one could deny that he was an Adonis judging by the fact that my cheeks flamed a little whenever he smiled at me. When we reached his classroom, I bade goodbye and left him to his own devices.
Oof!
"He's way out of our league,"
I frowned at the tall, blue eyed brunette towering over me in her six-inch platformed stilettos. Lily Calder was what would call the school's 'Queen Bee'. When I first arrived at this school, we really didn't get off on the right foot you could say.
"You're just some invisible nobody that has really bad taste in fashion," she sneered at me with a once-over on my outfit.
"Right..." I trail off. "And you think you're any better?"
Lily's eyes narrowed murderously and spat, "This outfit was inspired by none other than, Eldridge O'Conner!"
Did I really dress like that? Hell, the jewellery was cute but the shoes? The shirt? No freakin' way. I sighed an just trudged off to my class, not realising that, Lily was yelling at me to 'get back here!' Being the person I am, I just floated off without a care.

"Turn a little to the left!"
"Here?"
"Yes!"
My eyes were stinging slightly from the blasting air from the wind machines. I was standing next to a fake tree trunk that was wrapped in numerous colourful flowers. The peacock hued silk dress was billowing out behind me while I posed in front of the camera that was flashing away. My legs were starting to get sore from having to do numerous poses all in the pair of skyscraper heels.
"Yeah, keep it going! Keep it coming!" the photographer encourage loudly.
I tried my best to keep myself from rolling my eyes in annoyance. Doesn't he ever shut up? I sighed a sigh of relief, happy to be done. Chloe quickly grabbed me, saying something about meeting someone.
"His name is-"
"Hello, my name is, Nathan,"
My jaw nearly dropped to the floor. Nathan, the one that I met this morning was standing right here in front of me! He was looking more spiffy than usual. He was wearing a plain black business suit and his hair was slicked back. Might I say, he was looking fine.
"Good evening, Nathan," I greeted back politely. "My name is, Eldridge-"
"Might I say that it is an honour to be in such a prescence," he said, making me blush madly. "You're looking stunning tonight, as you always do every night,"
Now wasn't he quite the smooth talker!? It so happened to be that, Nathan was the son of, Millicent the number one model employer world wide. Millicent was meant to talk to me about my career tonight, Chloe told me but she couldn't come so she had her son take her place.
"My mother wanted to ask you if you're willing to hit the real big time,"
Without a thought, I said, "Yes."
"Well, here are the forms then," he says, amused at my irrational enthusiasm.
A couple seconds after I realized that I made the mistake of uncovering the fact that I wanted this, I quickly said back coolly, "I think about it and tell you the verdict as soon as I can."
